Subject: [PATCH iproute2-next] man: ip-route: document tcp_usec_ts route feature
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 09:59:25 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911135925.147934-1-prijeshpatel.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
ip route supports a "tcp_usec_ts" per-route feature
(RTAX_FEATURE_TCP_USEC_TS) to request microsecond-resolution TCP
timestamps for connections to/from a given destination, but this was
never added to the ip-route(8) man page or its FEATURES synopsis.
Document tcp_usec_ts alongside the existing ecn feature.
