From 68a360e82e55c9b35097e7be7f7991d8f401032f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Willem de Bruijn Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2014 18:01:31 -0400 Subject: packet: remove deprecated syststamp timestamp No device driver will ever return an skb_shared_info structure with syststamp non-zero, so remove the branch that tests for this and optionally marks the packet timestamp as TP_STATUS_TS_SYS_HARDWARE. Do not remove the definition TP_STATUS_TS_SYS_HARDWARE, as processes may refer to it. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn Signed-off-by: David S.
