Whenever a frame was received to the CPU, the HW is timestamping the frame. In the IFH(Inter Frame Header) it is found the nanosecond part of the timestamps the SW is required to read from HW the second part. But reading the second part it seems to be a expensive operations, so so change this such to read the second part only when rx filter is enabled. Doing this change gives the RX a performance boost of ~70mbit. before: [ 5] 0.00-10.01 sec 546 MBytes 457 Mbits/sec 0 sender now: [ 5] 0.00-10.01 sec 652 MBytes 530 Mbits/sec 0 sender Signed-off-by: Horatiu Vultur <horatiu.vultur@microchip.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
