Shannon Nelson says: ==================== ionic: add PTP and hw clock support This patchset adds support for accessing the DSC hardware clock and for offloading PTP timestamping. Tx packet timestamping happens through a separate Tx queue set up with expanded completion descriptors that can report the timestamp. Rx timestamping can happen either on all queues, or on a separate timestamping queue when specific filtering is requested. Again, the timestamps are reported with the expanded completion descriptors. The timestamping offload ability is advertised but not enabled until an OS service asks for it. At that time the driver's queues are reconfigured to use the different completion descriptors and the private processing queues as needed. Reading the raw clock value comes through a new pair of values in the device info registers in BAR0. These high and low values are interpreted with help from new clock mask, mult, and shift values in the device identity information. First we add the ability to detect new queue features, then the handling of the new descriptor sizes. After adding the new interface structures, we start adding the support code, saving the advertising to the stack for last. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
