We want to use precise timestamps in TCP stack, but we do not want to call possibly expensive kernel time services too often. tp->tcp_mstamp is guaranteed to be updated once per incoming packet. We will use it in the following patches, removing specific skb_mstamp_get() calls, and removing ack_time from struct tcp_sacktag_state.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
