 DEVICE IMPLEMENTATION
 
 A driver which supports hardware time stamping must support the
-SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl. Time stamps for received packets must be stored
-in the skb with skb_hwtstamp_set().
+SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl and update the supplied struct hwtstamp_config with
+the actual values as described in the section on SIOCSHWTSTAMP.
+
+Time stamps for received packets must be stored in the skb. To get a pointer
+to the shared time stamp structure of the skb call skb_hwtstamps(). Then
+set the time stamps in the structure:
+
+struct skb_shared_hwtstamps {
+	/* hardware time stamp transformed into duration
+	 * since arbitrary point in time
+	 */
+	ktime_t	hwtstamp;
+	ktime_t	syststamp; /* hwtstamp transformed to system time base */
+};
 
 Time stamps for outgoing packets are to be generated as follows:
-- In hard_start_xmit(), check if skb_hwtstamp_check_tx_hardware()
-  returns non-zero. If yes, then the driver is expected
-  to do hardware time stamping.
+- In hard_start_xmit(), check if skb_tx(skb)->hardware is set no-zero.
+  If yes, then the driver is expected to do hardware time stamping.
 - If this is possible for the skb and requested, then declare
-  that the driver is doing the time stamping by calling
-  skb_hwtstamp_tx_in_progress(). A driver not supporting
-  hardware time stamping doesn't do that. A driver must never
-  touch sk_buff::tstamp! It is used to store how time stamping
-  for an outgoing packets is to be done.
+  that the driver is doing the time stamping by setting the field
+  skb_tx(skb)->in_progress non-zero. You might want to keep a pointer
+  to the associated skb for the next step and not free the skb. A driver
+  not supporting hardware time stamping doesn't do that. A driver must
+  never touch sk_buff::tstamp! It is used to store software generated
+  time stamps by the network subsystem.
 - As soon as the driver has sent the packet and/or obtained a
   hardware time stamp for it, it passes the time stamp back by
   calling skb_hwtstamp_tx() with the original skb, the raw
-  hardware time stamp and a handle to the device (necessary
-  to convert the hardware time stamp to system time). If obtaining
-  the hardware time stamp somehow fails, then the driver should
-  not fall back to software time stamping. The rationale is that
-  this would occur at a later time in the processing pipeline
-  than other software time stamping and therefore could lead
-  to unexpected deltas between time stamps.
-- If the driver did not call skb_hwtstamp_tx_in_progress(), then
+  hardware time stamp. skb_hwtstamp_tx() clones the original skb and
+  adds the timestamps, therefore the original skb has to be freed now.
+  If obtaining the hardware time stamp somehow fails, then the driver
+  should not fall back to software time stamping. The rationale is that
+  this would occur at a later time in the processing pipeline than other
+  software time stamping and therefore could lead to unexpected deltas
+  between time stamps.
+- If the driver did not call set skb_tx(skb)->in_progress, then
   dev_hard_start_xmit() checks whether software time stamping
   is wanted as fallback and potentially generates the time stamp.
