Thanks. Well sometimes there is a need to capture and drop pkts and various points, so it handy to have code fragments ready and just add the hook when it's needed in driver or rx softirq etc.

I'd be thrilled to have the receive logic go into pktgen, even if it was #if 0

showing how to patch dev.c to get it working.  It would make my out-of-tree 
patch smaller
and should help others who are doing research and driver development...

If you'd accept a patch like this, please let me know.

 Any chance you extract this one so we can compare with get_time_of_day. This 
pops up
 in the profiles and TX numbers are not what used to be.

I'll work on that.

Thanks,
Ben
