Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]

This patch extends the XDP Tx metadata framework to include Time-Based
Scheduling (TBS) support where the NIC will schedule a packet for
transmission at a pre-determined time called launch time. The value of
launch time is communicated from user space to Ethernet driver via
launch_time field of struct xsk_tx_metadata.
