User-space applications (e.g. PipeWire) depend on
ISO-formatted timestamps for precise audio sync.

The ISO ts is based on the controller’s clock domain,
so hardware timestamping (hwtimestamp) must be used.

section 3.1 Hardware Timestamping.

Several lines below there is

         conn->rx_skb = bt_skb_alloc(len, GFP_KERNEL);
         skb_copy_from_linear_data(skb, skb_put(conn->rx_skb, skb-
len),
                                                   skb->len);

so timestamp should be copied explicitly also into conn->rx_skb,
otherwise it gets lost when you have ACL-fragmented ISO packets.
Yep, it is not that the code is completely wrong but it is operating
on the original skb not in the rx_skb as you said, that said is only
the first fragment that contains the ts header so we only have to do
it once in case that was not clear.
I might just do a fixup myself, something like the following:

         case ISO_CONT:


Well, that's great!
Thanks so much for your help.
It could also be useful to write a simple test case that extracts the
timestamp from CMSG, see for example how it was done for BT_PKT_SEQNUM:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-bluetooth/b98b7691e4ba06550bb8f275cad0635bc9e4e8d2.1752511478.git.pav@xxxxxx/
bthost_send_iso() can take ts=true and some timestamp value.

               } else {
