I really do not want touch netcp, sry. There are other internal code based on this even if there is only one hooks in LKML now. + my comment above.OK, I see. The use of lists makes more sense now.quoted
I'll try use skb_reset_mac_header(skb); As spectrum does: skb_reset_mac_header(skb); mlxsw_sp1_ptp_got_packet(mlxsw_sp, skb, local_port, true); if doesn't help PATCH 6 is to drop.So, only patch 6 is to drop or 5 as well? Anyhow, I'll wait for your test results. Thanks!
Patch 5 not affected as all RX packet have timestamp and it's coming different way. TX not affected as skb come to .xmit() properly initialized. As I've just replied for patch 6 - skb_reset_mac_header() helps. Rhetorical question - is below check really required? Bad packets (short, crc) expected to be discarded by HW /* Ensure that the entire header is present in this packet. */ if (ptr + sizeof(struct ptp_header) > skb->data + skb->len) return NULL; And I'd like to ask you to update ptp_parse_header() documentation with description of expected SKB state for this function to work. -- Best regards, grygorii
