Well, I think we need to do a lot more to allow that, but I guess ultimately it would be possible - though we have this as codel_time_t so the driver doesn't really know the reference etc. immediately. > If we want to save the four bytes, is there any reason we can't just > change the codel code to use skb->tstamp instead? I didn't really want to go into that. Any comments on the patch itself? I don't think I even merged this yet. johannes
