[ntp:questions] SO_TIMESTAMPING experiments (sub-us jitter over LAN)

2012-10-18 Thread gabs
SO_TIMESTAMPING [1] is a socket option for obtaining transmit and receive timestamps. ntpd uses SO_TIMESTAMP to get receive timestamps. Transmit timestamps require NIC driver support [2] and the application gets the timestamp after the packet is sent. A PTP-like protocol is used to measure the del
