Another value since if someone turns on SO_TIMESTAMP they want usec (timeval) and SO_TIMESTAMPNS would be for nanosecond values. Trying to set both flags would be not allowed. - original - If the SO_TIMESTAMP option is enabled on a SOCK_DGRAM socket, the recvmsg(2) call will return a timestamp corresponding to when the data- gram was received. The msg_control field in the msghdr structure points to a buffer that contains a cmsghdr structure followed by a struct timeval. The cmsghdr fields have the following values: cmsg_len = sizeof(struct timeval) cmsg_level = SOL_SOCKET cmsg_type = SCM_TIMESTAMP - add - If the SO_TIMESTAMPNS option is enabled on a SOCK_DGRAM socket, ... cmsg_len = sizeof(struct timespec) cmsg_level = SOL_SOCKET cmsg_type = SCM_TIMESTAMPNS -- Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
