> AM65 CPSW h/w supports Enhanced Scheduled Traffic (EST – defined
> in P802.1Qbv/D2.2 that later got included in IEEE 802.1Q-2018)
> configuration. EST allows express queue traffic to be scheduled
> (placed) on the wire at specific repeatable time intervals. In
> Linux kernel, EST configuration is done through tc command and
> the taprio scheduler in the net core implements a software only
> scheduler (SCH_TAPRIO). If the NIC is capable of EST configuration,
