From: Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Yes, I understand why we want a time-stamp very early...but if we can get _some_ sort of time stamp very cheap (TSC, for example) then we can potentially defer the more expensive conversion of this stamp into the equivalent of whatever do_gettimeofday will give us. I fully understand your idea, I've talked about it with Alexey many times. Someone just has to implement it. pkt_sched.h is probably the place to play, maybe make an asm/pkt_sched.h header. |
