Hello Guys.
I have encountered a problem.
I am capturing Packages with hardware timestamps and nanosecond
precision...but the timestamps are bugged.
sadly I'm not at the place where I captured the data, so the used used
command might be slightly different, as I have to work from my memory:
tcpdump -i eth4 port 33330 -v -tt -j adapter_unsynced
--time-stamp-precision=nano > dumpfile
The problem is, that if the time is at below 100ms, the 0.1 field is
not 0 as it should be, but doesn't exist.
Here are two instances, where this happened.
1469090574.96991243 IP (tos 0x4, ttl 64, id 761, offset 0, flags [DF],
proto UDP (17), length 1026)
10.124.10.11.58050 > 10.124.10.12.33330: UDP, length 998
1469090574.135096345 IP (tos 0x4, ttl 64, id 770, offset 0, flags [DF],
proto UDP (17), length 1488)
10.124.10.11.58050 > 10.124.10.12.33330: UDP, length 1460
1469090573.977625339 IP (tos 0x4, ttl 64, id 47, offset 0, flags [DF],

1469090574.15422849 IP (tos 0x4, ttl 64, id 50, offset 0, flags [DF],
proto UDP (17), length 1488)
10.124.10.11.58050 > 10.124.10.12.33330: UDP, length 1460
Here are some examples, that I would have used for my project(because of
that the . is gone. first field is the id, the scond one is the
Timestamp converted to ns), so you can see, that the field is only
missing , if the field would look like this x.0x
59916 1469090572979755780
59917 1469090572979767988
59923 146909057314918024
59924 146909057314930232

770 1469090574135096345
771 1469090574135118217
Thank you in advance for any help in the matter.
