Vadim Fedorenko a47db2caae ixgbe: fix timestamp configuration code 
[ Upstream commit 3c44191dd7 ]

The commit in fixes introduced flags to control the status of hardware
configuration while processing packets. At the same time another structure
is used to provide configuration of timestamper to user-space applications.
The way it was coded makes this structures go out of sync easily. The
repro is easy for 82599 chips:

[root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0 -r 12 -t 1
current settings:
tx_type 0
rx_filter 0
new settings:
tx_type 1
rx_filter 12

The eth0 device is properly configured to timestamp any PTPv2 events.

[root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0 -r 1 -t 1
current settings:
tx_type 1
rx_filter 12
SIOCSHWTSTAMP failed: Numerical result out of range
The requested time stamping mode is not supported by the hardware.

The error is properly returned because HW doesn't support all packets
timestamping. But the adapter->flags is cleared of timestamp flags
even though no HW configuration was done. From that point no RX timestamps
are received by user-space application. But configuration shows good
values:

[root@hostname ~]# hwstamp_ctl -i eth0
current settings:
tx_type 1
rx_filter 12

Fix the issue by applying new flags only when the HW was actually
configured.

README 

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.
