Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 1/3] net-timestamp: no-payload option
From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>
Add timestamping option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY. For transmit
timestamps, this loops timestamps on top of empty packets.
Doing so reduces the pressure on SO_RCVBUF. Payload inspection and
cmsg reception (aside from timestamps) are no longer possible. This
works together with a follow on patch that allows administrators to
only allow tx timestamping if it does not loop payload or metadata.
Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>
----
Changes (rfc -> v1)
- add documentation
- remove unnecessary skb->len test (thanks to Richard Cochran)

option IP_PKTINFO simultaneously.
+SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY:
+
+ Applies to transmit timestamps only. Makes the kernel return the
+ timestamp as a cmsg alongside an empty packet, as opposed to
+ alongside the original packet. This reduces the amount of memory
+ charged to the socket's receive budget (SO_RCVBUF) and delivers
+ the timestamp even if sysctl net.core.tstamp_allow_data is 0.
+ This option disables SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG.
+
+
+New applications are encouraged to pass SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID to
+disambiguate timestamps and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY to operate
+regardless of the setting of sysctl net.core.tstamp_allow_data.
+
+An exception is when a process needs additional cmsg data, for
+instance SOL_IP/IP_PKTINFO to detect the egress network interface.
+Then pass option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. This option depends on
+having access to the contents of the original packet, so cannot be
+combined with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY.
