2009-02-16ip: support for TX timestamps on UDP and RAW socketsPatrick Ohly1-0/+2
Instructions for time stamping outgoing packets are take from the socket layer and later copied into the new skb. Signed-off-by: Patrick Ohly <patrick.ohly@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-02-16net: new user space API for time stamping of incoming and outgoing packetsPatrick Ohly4-0/+718
User space can request hardware and/or software time stamping. Reporting of the result(s) via a new control message is enabled separately for each field in the message because some of the fields may require additional computation and thus cause overhead. User space can tell the different kinds of time stamps apart and choose what suits its needs. When a TX timestamp operation is requested, the TX skb will be cloned and the clone will be time stamped (in hardware or software) and added to the socket error queue of the skb, if the skb has a socket associated with it. The actual TX timestamp will reach userspace as a RX timestamp on the cloned packet. If timestamping is requested and no timestamping is done in the device driver (potentially this may use hardware timestamping), it will be done in software after the device's start_hard_xmit routine.

2009-01-22dccp: Implement both feature-local and feature-remote Sequence Window featureGerrit Renker1-1/+2
This adds full support for local/remote Sequence Window feature, from which the * sequence-number-validity (W) and * acknowledgment-number-validity (W') windows derive as specified in RFC 4340, 7.5.3. Specifically, the following is contained in this patch: * integrated new socket fields into dccp_sk; * updated the update_gsr/gss routines with regard to these fields; * updated handler code: the Sequence Window feature is located at the TX side, so the local feature is meant if the handler-rx flag is false; * the initialisation of `rcv_wnd' in reqsk is removed, since - rcv_wnd is not used by the code anywhere; - sequence number checks are not done in the LISTEN state (cf. 7.5.3); - dccp_check_req checks the Ack number validity more rigorously; * the `struct dccp_minisock' became empty and is now removed.
