parentwireguard: noise: remove unused variable (diff)
wireguard: queueing: preserve tstamp_type when encapsulating packetHEADstable
Sending traffic through a wireguard tunnel on a host using the fq qdisc fills the log with: fq: likely mono tstamp with tstamp_type 0 An skb carries a timestamp in skb->tstamp and, separately, a skb->tstamp_type field recording which clock that timestamp came from. The two have to agree. When wireguard encapsulates a packet it calls wg_reset_packet(), which clears the fields that must not leak from the inner packet into the tunnel packet. It does so in two steps: skb_scrub_packet(skb, true); memset(&skb->headers, 0, sizeof(skb->headers)); skb_scrub_packet() deliberately keeps skb->tstamp when it holds a monotonic timestamp: that value is the time the packet is scheduled to be sent, and the qdisc still needs it. The memset then zeroes skb->tstamp_type, because that field sits inside the headers group while skb->tstamp does not. The packet therefore leaves wireguard carrying a monotonic timestamp labelled as a realtime one. Nothing noticed until commit c4f796c4f16b ("net_sched: sch_fq: convert skb->tstamp if not monotonic"): fq used to assume every timestamp was monotonic. It now consults tstamp_type, spots the mismatch, warns, and falls back to treating the value as monotonic. Pacing still ends up correct, so the log spam is the actual problem. Save tstamp_type before the memset and restore it when encapsulating, next to the hash fields that are already carried over this way. When decapsulating it stays zeroed, which is right: an incoming packet's timestamp is a realtime receive timestamp.
