====================
Add option to provide OPT_ID value via cmsg
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID socket option flag gives a way to correlate TX
timestamps and packets sent via socket. Unfortunately, there is no way
to reliably predict socket timestamp ID value in case of error returned
by sendmsg. For UDP sockets it's impossible because of lockless
nature of UDP transmit, several threads may send packets in parallel. In
case of RAW sockets MSG_MORE option makes things complicated. More
details are in the conversation [1].
This patch adds new control message type to give user-space
software an opportunity to control the mapping between packets and
values by providing ID with each sendmsg.
The first patch in the series adds all needed definitions and implements
the function for UDP sockets. The explicit check of socket's type is not
added because subsequent patches in the series will add support for other
types of sockets. The documentation is also included into the first
patch.
Patch 2/4 adds support for TCP sockets. This part is simple and straight
forward.
Patch 3/4 adds support for RAW sockets. It's a bit tricky because
sock_tx_timestamp functions has to be refactored to receive full socket
cookie information to fill in ID. The commit

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
