Subject: pktgen: add flag NO_TIMESTAMP to disable timestamping
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=afb84b626184;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

pktgen: add flag NO_TIMESTAMP to disable timestamping

Then testing the TX limits of the stack, then it is useful to
be-able to disable the do_gettimeofday() timetamping on every packet.

This implements a pktgen flag NO_TIMESTAMP which will disable this
call to do_gettimeofday().

The performance change on (my system E5-2695) with skb_clone=0, goes
from TX 2,423,751 pps to 2,567,165 pps with flag NO_TIMESTAMP. Thus,
the cost of do_gettimeofday() or saving is approx 23 nanosec.
