Linux kernel source tree
Resolve race conditions in timestamp events list handling between TX
and RX paths causing missed timestamps.
The current implementation uses a single events list for both TX and RX
timestamps. The am65_cpts_find_ts() function acquires the lock,
splices all events (TX as well as RX events) to a temporary list,
and releases the lock. This function performs matching of timestamps
for TX packets only. Before it acquires the lock again to put the
non-TX events back to the main events list, a concurrent RX
processing thread could acquire the lock (as observed in practice),
find an empty events list, and fail to attach timestamp to it,
even though a relevant event exists in the spliced list which is yet to
be restored to the main list.
Fix this by creating separate events lists to handle TX and RX
timestamps independently.

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.
