Yangbo Lu says: ==================== enetc: support PTP Sync packet one-step timestamping This patch-set is to add support for PTP Sync packet one-step timestamping. Since ENETC single-step register has to be configured dynamically per packet for correctionField offeset and UDP checksum update, current one-step timestamping packet has to be sent only when the last one completes transmitting on hardware. So, on the TX, this patch handles one-step timestamping packet as below: - Trasmit packet immediately if no other one in transfer, or queue to skb queue if there is already one in transfer. The test_and_set_bit_lock() is used here to lock and check state. - Start a work when complete transfer on hardware, to release the bit lock and to send one skb in skb queue if has. Changes for v2: - Rebased. - Fixed issues from patchwork checks. - netif_tx_lock for one-step timestamping packet sending. Changes for v3: - Used system workqueue. - Set bit lock when transmitted one-step packet, and scheduled work when completed. The worker cleared the bit lock, and transmitted one skb in skb queue if has, instead of a loop. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
