            Bug ID: 1200
           Summary: mlx5_tx_handle_completion: bad timestamp
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 22.03
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: core
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---

In the file dpdk/drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_tx.c method mlx5_tx_handle_completion I inspect the timestamp field of a cqe:

@@ -192,6 +196,9 @@ mlx5_tx_handle_completion(struct mlx5_txq_data *__rte_restrict txq,

                cqe = &txq->cqes[txq->cq_ci & txq->cqe_m];
                ret = check_cqe(cqe, txq->cqe_s, txq->cq_ci);

+ if (ret==MLX5_CQE_STATUS_HW_OWN) {
+ printf("line:%d cqe timestamp: %lu\n", __LINE__, cqe->timestamp);
+ }

Consider transmitting several thousand packets. This print to stdout with regard to the timestamp,

* prints 0 for timestamp for the first ~2000 packet completions
* prints non-zero numbers thereafter, however, not monotonically increasing e.g. completion event timestamp for occurrence N is 10x smaller than N-1

I am withdrawing this BF. This feature is simply unsupported in DPDK.
