From: John Fraker Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2025 00:07:52 +0000 (+0000) Subject: gve: Add rx hardware timestamp expansion X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3bf5431fef750d5081731b53f2a5c324bcff6c3a;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git gve: Add rx hardware timestamp expansion Allow the rx path to recover the high 32 bits of the full 64 bit rx timestamp. Use the low 32 bits of the last synced nic time and the 32 bits of the timestamp provided in the rx descriptor to generate a difference, which is then applied to the last synced nic time to reconstruct the complete 64-bit timestamp. This scheme remains accurate as long as no more than ~2 seconds have passed between the last read of the nic clock and the timestamping application of the received packet.
