The above "tstamp_type:2" change shifted the tc_at_ingress bit.
TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK needs to be adjusted.

  	__u8			tc_skip_classify:1;

With pahole, does this have an effect on sk_buff layout?

I think it does and it also impacts BPF testing. Hence in my cover letter i have mentioned that these
changes will impact BPF. My level of expertise is very limited to BPF hence the reason for RFC.
That being said i am actually trying to understand/learn BPF instructions to know things better.
I think we need to also change the offset SKB_MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK and TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK


#ifdef __BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD
#define SKB_MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK	(1 << 7) //Suspecting changes here too
#define TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK		(1 << 6) // and here
#else
#define SKB_MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK	(1 << 0)
#define TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK		(1 << 1) (this might have to change to 1<<2 )

This should be (1 << 2) now. Similar adjustment for the big endian.

#endif
#define SKB_BF_MONO_TC_OFFSET		offsetof(struct sk_buff, __mono_tc_offset)

Also i suspect i change in /selftests/bpf/prog_tests/ctx_rewrite.c

ctx_rewrite.c tests the bpf ctx rewrite code. In this particular case, it tests
the bpf_convert_tstamp_read() and bpf_convert_tstamp_write() generate the
correct bpf instructions.
e.g. "w11 &= 3;" is testing the following in bpf_convert_tstamp_read():
		*insn++ = BPF_ALU32_IMM(BPF_AND, tmp_reg,
	 				TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK | SKB_MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK);

The existing "TC_AT_INGRESS_MASK | SKB_MONO_DELIVERY_TIME_MASK" is 0x3
and it should become 0x5 if my hand counts correctly.

The patch set cannot be applied to the bpf-next:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20240409210547.3815806-4-quic_abchauha@xxxxxxxxxxx/
, so bpf CI cannot run to reproduce the issue.
