Hi all,

six exciting hours and a lot of learning later, here it is.
Symptomatically, the critical commit appears for me between 5.14.21-
051421-generic and 5.15.0-051500rc2-generic - I did not find an amd64
build for rc1.

Please see the git-bisect output below and let me know how I may
further assist in debugging!


Cheers,
Stefan

    igc: Add support for PTP getcrosststamp()

    i225 supports PCIe Precision Time Measurement (PTM), allowing us to
    support the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl() in the driver via the
    getcrosststamp() function.

    The easiest way to expose the PTM registers would be to configure
the PTM
    dialogs to run periodically, but the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl()
    semantics are more aligned to using a kind of "one-shot" way of
retrieving
    the PTM timestamps. But this causes a bit more code to be written:
the
    trigger registers for the PTM dialogs are not cleared
automatically.

    i225 can be configured to send "fake" packets with the PTM
    information, adding support for handling these types of packets is
    left for the future.

    PTM improves the accuracy of time synchronization, for example,
using
    phc2sys, while a simple application is sending packets as fast as
    possible. First, without .getcrosststamp():

    Statistics for this run (total of 2179 lines), in nanoseconds:
      average: 0.14
      stdev: 5.03
      max: 48
      min: -27

    For reference, the statistics for runs without PCIe congestion show
    that the improvements from enabling PTM are less dramatic. For two
    runs of 16466 entries:
      without PTM: avg -0.04 stdev 10.57 max 39 min -42
      with PTM: avg 0.01 stdev 4.20 max 19 min -16

    One possible explanation is that when PTM is not enabled, and
there's a lot
    of traffic in the PCIe fabric, some register reads will take more
time
    than the others because of congestion on the PCIe fabric.

    When PTM is enabled, even if the PTM dialogs take more time to
    complete under heavy traffic, the time measurements do not depend
on
    the time to read the registers.

    This was implemented following the i225 EAS version 0.993.
