To clarify; we haven't proven this either mathematically not in a laboratory
(looking at actual data transmissions). Also, it's the jitter accuracy we're
conce

Well, both. 8

Perhaps you mean 8 nanosecond resolution?
Is documentation available for this claim?

Another question which I asked John Ronciak earlier; is there any work on TX
timestamping for IPv6? In 2.6.37 sock_tx_timestamp() is only called in IPv4 UDP
(net/ipv4/udp.c) and r
Hardware timestamping for Intel 82580 didn't work in either 2.6.36 or 2.6.37.
Comparing it to Intel's igb-2.4.12 I found that the timecounter_init
clock/counter initialization was done too early.
