[PATCH 3/3] The TC ETF Qdisc pass the hardware timestamp to the interface driver.

From: Erez Geva
Date: Wed Dec 09 2020 - 10:55:55 EST


The ETF pass the TX sending hardware timestamp to
the network interface driver.

- Add new flag to the ETF Qdisc setting that mandate
the use of the hardware timestamp in a socket's buffer.
- The ETF Qdisc pass the TX sending hardware timestamp to the
network interface driver.
