Subject: [PATCH RFC net-next 7/9] tcp: propagate the start time onto every skb in the tx path
Date: Sat, 19 Sep 2026 22:37:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260919143732.11772-8-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260919143732.11772-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com>
Now that sendmsg() records a start time in sk->sk_start_time within
the socket lock protection, copy that value into the shared hwtstamps
of each skb.
The timing is tcp_skb_entail() runs once per newly allocated skb
in the sendmsg() loop, every segment produced by a single sendmsg()
carries the same start time.
