+- To provide the packet send scheduling on mbuf timestamps the ``tx_pp``
+ parameter should be specified, RTE_MBUF_DYNFIELD_TIMESTAMP_NAME and
+ RTE_MBUF_DYNFLAG_TIMESTAMP_NAME should be registered by application.
+ When PMD sees the RTE_MBUF_DYNFLAG_TIMESTAMP_NAME set on the packet
+ being sent it tries to synchronize the time of packet appearing on
+ the wire with the specified packet timestamp. It the specified one
+ is in the past it should be ignored, if one is in the distant future
+ it should be capped with some reasonable value (in range of seconds).
+ These specific cases ("too late" and "distant future") can be optionally
+ reported via device xstats to assist applications to detect the
+ time-related problems.
+
+ There is no any packet reordering according timestamps is supposed,
+ neither within packet burst, nor between packets, it is an entirely
+ application responsibility to generate packets and its timestamps
+ in desired order. The timestamps can be put only in the first packet
+ in the burst providing the entire burst scheduling.

- E-Switch decapsulation Flow:
- can be applied to PF port only.
variable "MLX5_SHUT_UP_BF" value is used. If there is no "MLX5_SHUT_UP_BF",
the default ``tx_db_nc`` value is zero for ARM64 hosts and one for others.
+- ``tx_pp`` parameter [int]
+
+ If a nonzero value is specified the driver creates all necessary internal
+ objects to provide accurate packet send scheduling on mbuf timestamps.
+ The positive value specifies the scheduling granularity in nanoseconds,
+ the packet send will be accurate up to specified digits. The allowed range is
+ from 500 to 1 million of nanoseconds. The negative value specifies the module
+ of granularity and engages the special test mode the check the schedule rate.
+ By default (if the ``tx_pp`` is not specified) send scheduling on timestamps
+ feature is disabled.
+
+- ``tx_skew`` parameter [int]
+
+ The parameter adjusts the send packet scheduling on timestamps and represents
+ the average delay between beginning of the transmitting descriptor processing
+ by the hardware and appearance of actual packet data on the wire. The value
+ should be provided in nanoseconds and is valid only if ``tx_pp`` parameter is
+ specified. The default value is zero.
+
- ``tx_vec_en`` parameter [int]
A nonzero value enables Tx vector on ConnectX-5, ConnectX-6, ConnectX-6 Dx
