Unless there is a big performance impact by doing so. > Signed-off-by: Ben Greear<greearb@candelatech.com> > > > diff --git a/drivers/net/veth.c b/drivers/net/veth.c > index 1097c72..e9136af 100644 > --- a/drivers/net/veth.c > +++ b/drivers/net/veth.c > @@ -170,7 +173,12 @@ static int veth_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev) > > if (skb->len > (rcv->mtu + MTU_PAD)) > goto rx_drop; > - > + > + /* Zero out the time-stamp so that receiving code is forced > + * to recalculate it. > + */ > + skb->tstamp.tv64 = 0; > + > skb->pkt_type = PACKET_HOST; > skb->protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, rcv); > if (dev->features & NETIF_F_NO_CSUM) > > > Thanks, > Ben > > -- > Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> > Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

The patch below helps when using VETH and bridge(s) This makes sure that the pkt timestamp is properly (re)calculated on receiving the packet on the peer veth device. I'm sure this patch is white-space damaged. If this looks useful, I'll generate a clean patch and send as attachment. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear<greearb@candelatech.com> Thanks, Ben
