*Create TX timestamp thread*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    Create a TX timestamp thread that will pass the timestamped network
    packets to some other module like gPTP for further processing.
    If you just want to timestamp network packets and get information
    how long the network packets flow in the system, you can disable
    the thread support.

Direct dependencies
