tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONIC
In the recent TCP/EDT patch series, I switched TCP and sch_fq clocks from MONOTONIC to TAI, in order to meet the choice done earlier for sch_etf packet scheduler. But sure enough, this broke some setups were the TAI clock jumps forward (by almost 50 year...), as reported by Leonard Crestez. If we want to converge later, we'll probably need to add an skb field to differentiate the clock bases, or a socket option. In the meantime, an UDP application will need to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC base for its SCM_TXTIME timestamps if using fq packet scheduler. Fixes: 72b0094f9182 ("tcp: switch tcp_clock_ns() to CLOCK_TAI base") Fixes: 142537e41923 ("net_sched: sch_fq: switch to CLOCK_TAI") Fixes: fd2bca2aa789 ("tcp: switch internal pacing timer to CLOCK_TAI") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Leonard Crestez <leonard.crestez@nxp.com> Tested-by: Leonard Crestez <leonard.crestez@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
