Subject: [PATCH V2 2/4] mwl8k: Add timestamp information for tx packets
Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2011 22:16:20 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1303231582-17333-2-git-send-email-nishants@marvell.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1303231582-17333-1-git-send-email-nishants@marvell.com>

From: Pradeep Nemavat <pnemavat@marvell.com>

Timestamp tx packets using a HW micro-second timer.
This timestamp will be compared to the current timestamp
in the hardware and if the difference is greater than 500ms,
the packet will be dropped.
