H A Dskb.cdiff 741b91f1b0ea34f00f6a7d4539b767c409291fcf Tue Jan 12 03:54:37 CST 2021 Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr> can: dev: can_put_echo_skb(): add software tx timestamps

Call skb_tx_timestamp() within can_put_echo_skb() so that a software tx
timestamp gets attached to the skb.

There two main reasons to include this call in can_put_echo_skb():

* It easily allow to enable the tx timestamp on all devices with
just one small change.

* According to Documentation/networking/timestamping.rst, the tx
timestamps should be generated in the device driver as close as possible,
but always prior to passing the packet to the network interface. During the
call to can_put_echo_skb(), the skb gets cloned meaning that the driver
should not dereference the skb variable anymore after can_put_echo_skb()
returns. This makes can_put_echo_skb() the very last place we can use the
skb without having to access the echo_skb[] array.

Remark: by default, skb_tx_timestamp() does nothing. It needs to be activated
by passing the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE flag either through socket options
or control messages.

References:

* Support for the error queue in CAN RAW sockets (which is needed for
tx timestamps) was introduced in:
https://git.kernel.org//torvalds/c/eb88531bdbfaafb827192d1fc6c5a3fcc4fadd96

* Put the call to skb_tx_timestamp() just before adding it to the
array:

H A Draw.hdiff eb88531bdbfaafb827192d1fc6c5a3fcc4fadd96 Sat Sep 26 11:24:31 CDT 2020 Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr> can: raw: add missing error queue support

Error queue are not yet implemented in CAN-raw sockets.

The problem: a userland call to recvmsg(soc, msg, MSG_ERRQUEUE) on a
CAN-raw socket would unqueue messages from the normal queue without
any kind of error or warning. As such, it prevented CAN drivers from
using the functionalities that relies on the error queue such as
skb_tx_timestamp().

SCM_CAN_RAW_ERRQUEUE is defined as the type for the CAN raw error
queue. SCM stands for "Socket control messages". The name is inspired
from SCM_J1939_ERRQUEUE of include/uapi/linux/can/j1939.h.
