net-timestamp: extend SCM_TIMESTAMPING ancillary data struct
Applications that request kernel tx timestamps with SO_TIMESTAMPING read timestamps as recvmsg() ancillary data. The response is defined implicitly as timespec[3]. 1) define struct scm_timestamping explicitly and 2) add support for new tstamp types. On tx, scm_timestamping always accompanies a sock_extended_err. Define previously unused field ee_info to signal the type of ts[0]. Introduce SCM_TSTAMP_SND to define the existing behavior. The reception path is not modified. On rx, no struct similar to sock_extended_err is passed along with SCM_TIMESTAMPING. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
