That is not how it is normally done with sockets, normally this is done with use of SO_TIMESTAMPING which is then reported using the socket error queue: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/timestamping.html Sorry to tell you just now, you might have lost a lot of time doing all of the changes, next time just drop and RFC early on with the general design so you don't spend too much time before getting any feedback. > TBD: iso-tester / l2cap-tester tests > > Pauli Virtanen (3): > Bluetooth: add transmission latency tracking for ISO and ACL > Bluetooth: ISO: add new ioctl() for reading tx latency > Bluetooth: L2CAP: add new ioctl() for reading tx latency > > include/net/bluetooth/bluetooth.h | 39 +++++++++++ > include/net/bluetooth/hci_core.h | 30 ++++++++ > net/bluetooth/hci_conn.c | 110 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- > net/bluetooth/hci_core.c | 14 ++++ > net/bluetooth/hci_event.c | 66 ++++++++++++++++++ > net/bluetooth/iso.c | 58 ++++++++++++++-- > net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c | 12 ++++ > net/bluetooth/l2cap_sock.c | 50 +++++++++++++- > 8 files changed, 372 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) > > -- > 2.44.0 > > -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz
