Thomas found that some forwarded packets would be stuck in FQ packet scheduler because their skb->tstamp contained timestamps far in the future. We thought we addressed this point in commit8203e2d844("net: clear skb->tstamp in forwarding paths") but there is still an issue when/if a packet needs to be fragmented. In order to meet EDT requirements, we have to make sure all fragments get the original skb->tstamp. Note that this original skb->tstamp should be zero in forwarding path, but might have a non zero value in output path if user decided so.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
