[PATCH 2/3] Pass TX sending hardware timestamp to a socket's buffer.

From: Erez Geva
Date: Wed Dec 09 2020 - 10:59:28 EST


Pass TX sending hardware timestamp from the socket layer to
a socket's buffer. The TC ETC Qdisc will pass it
to the interface network driver.

- Add the hardware timestamp to the IP cork, to support
the use of IP/UDP with the TX sending hardware timestamp
when sending through the TC ETF Qdisc
- Pass the TX sending hardware timestamp to a socket's buffer
using the hardware timestamp on the socket's buffer shared information.

Note: The socket buffer's hardware timestamp is used by
the network interface driver to send the actual sending timestamp
back to the application.
The timestamp is used by the TC ETF before the buffer
arrives in the network interface driver.
