Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] net: mvneta: add support for hardware timestamps
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2025 13:50:46 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1uwKHe-00000004glk-3nkJ@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
Add support for hardware timestamps in (e.g.) the PHY by calling
skb_tx_timestamp() as close as reasonably possible to the point that
the hardware is instructed to send the queued packets.
Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

v2: add ethtool_op_get_ts_info(), remove FIXME from comment.
