[PATCH 3.12 66/76] net/mlx4_en: fix spurious timestamping callbacks

Show all headers | View raw

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

[ Upstream commit fc96256c906362e845d848d0f6a6354450059e81 ]

When multiple skb are TX-completed in a row, we might incorrectly keep
a timestamp of a prior skb and cause extra work.

Fixes: ec693d47010e8 ("net/mlx4_en: Add HW timestamping (TS) support")
