Linux kernel source tree
d0d3e9c286
Some network drivers assume this field is zero after napi_get_frags().
We must clear it in napi_reuse_skb() otherwise the following can happen:
1) A packet is received, and skb_shinfo(skb)->hwtstamps is populated
because a bit in the receive descriptor announced hwtstamp
availability for this packet.
2) Packet is given to gro layer via napi_gro_frags().
3) Packet is merged to a prior one held in GRO queues.
4) skb is saved after some cleanup in napi->skb via a call
to napi_reuse_skb().
5) Next packet is received 10 seconds later, gets the recycled skb
from napi_get_frags().
6) The receive descriptor does not announce hwtstamp availability.
Driver does not clear shinfo->hwtstamps.
7) We have in shinfo->hwtstamps an old timestamp.
Fixes:

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.
