From: Tim Martin <timot...@nvidia.com>
The prior commit introduced tracing for mlx5, but there is a mixture of
two unrelated clocks used: the TSC for host work submission timestamps
and the NIC HW clock for CQE completion times. It is necessary to have
timestamps from a single common clock, and the NIC HW clock is the
better choice since it can be used with externally synchronized clocks.
This patch adds the NIC HW clock as an additional logged parameter for
trace_tx_entry, trace_tx_exit, and trace_tx_wqe. The included trace
analysis python script is also updated to use the new clock when
it is available.
Fixes: a1e910f5b8d4 ("net/mlx5: introduce tracepoints")
Fixes: 9725191a7e14 ("net/mlx5: add Tx datapath trace analyzing script")
