> +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> +
> +The Latency stats library marks the time in the timestamp field of the
> +mbuf for the ingress packets and sets the ``PKT_RX_TIMESTAMP`` flag of
> +``ol_flags`` for the mbuf to indicate the marked time as a valid one.
> +At the egress, the mbufs with the flag set are considered having valid
> +timestamp and are used for the latency calculation.
