[PATCH] net: TX timestamps for IPv6 UDP packets
From: Anders Berggren <hidden>
Date: 2011-02-22 21:43:53
Enabling TX timestamps (SO_TIMESTAMPING) for IPv6 UDP packets, in the same fashion as for IPv4. Necessary in order for NICs such as Intel 82580 to timestamp IPv6 packets. Signed-off-by: Anders Berggren <redacted> ---
