From d3edd06ea8ea9e03de6567fda80b8be57e21a537 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2018 08:51:50 -0700 Subject: tcp: provide earliest departure time in skb->tstamp Switch internal TCP skb->skb_mstamp to skb->skb_mstamp_ns, from usec units to nsec units. Do not clear skb->tstamp before entering IP stacks in TX, so that qdisc or devices can implement pacing based on the earliest departure time instead of socket sk->sk_pacing_rate Packets are fed with tcp_wstamp_ns, and following patch will update tcp_wstamp_ns when both TCP and sch_fq switch to the earliest departure time mechanism.
