	An: "Michael Kerrisk" <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Betreff: Re: PATCH: man-pages-2.15, socket option SO_TIMESTAMP Datum: 02 Dec 2005 08:00:11 +0100 Hello Michael, > Okay -- let me know if your patch is still good to go after you've > done your reading/testing. Maybe I will try to do another > man-page release tomorrow, if you you can confirm the details in 2.6. I have compared 2.4 and 2.6 src again and wrote two small test programs (one sending udp packets, one receiving the packets and calling SIOCGSTAMP w/ and w/o SO_TIMESTAMP). Both, 2.4 and 2.6 have the same behavior, which may be considered a bug. When a packet is received its timestamp is stored in the sock structure in kernel for SIOCGSTAMP to be retreived if SO_TIMESTAMP is not set, otherwise it is written into a cmsg structure to be returned with the recvmsg syscall. Therefore, SIOCGSTAMP doesn't get the correct timestamp, when SO_TIMESTAMP is set. Instead, SIOCGSTAMP returns an ENOENT error, if there has never been a packet reception while SO_TIMESTAMP unset, since the field in the sock structure in the kernel is initialized to "no timestamp" (0 in 2.4, -1 in 2.6). Otherwise, SIOCGSTAMP returns the timestamp found in the sock structure which is from the last packet when SO_TIMESTAMP was not set, i.e. it may not be the timestamp of the last packet received. I have updated the man page socket(7) accordingly. Patch is below. urs
