Kernel packetdrill set it by default to 14K (instead of 10K IIRC). I guess this statement: // SCM_TSTAMP_SCHED for the last byte should be received almost immediately // once 10001 is acked at t=20ms. the the follow-up check should be updated accordingly. In the failures observed so far the max timestamp is > 35ms. Cheers, Paolo

All three timestamping flakes are instances where the script expects the timestamp to be taken essentially instantaneously after the send call. This is not the case, and the delay is outside even the 14K tolerance. I see occurrences of 20K. At some point we cannot keep increasing the tolerance, perhaps.

The net-next-2024-12-20--03-00 branch will be the first to have this.
