[dpdk-dev] [RFC] [PATCH v1 2/3] ethdev: add API to convert raw timestamps to nsec

Tue Jun 9 16:17:12 CEST 2020


Existing ethdev functions can read/write time from/to device but
they're all related to timesync and none of them can translate a raw
counter in real time unit  which is usefull in a pdump application.

A new API is required because the conversion is derived from dev clock
info.
