Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Add software timestamp capabilities to xen-netback device

Hi all,

during some experiment using PTP (ptp4l) between a Dom0 domain and a DomU guest,
I noticed that the virtual interface brought up by the toolstack was not able
to be used as ptp4l interface on the Dom0 side, a brief investigation on the
drivers revealed that the backend driver doesn't have the SW timestamp
capabilities, so in order to provide them, I'm sending this patch.
