From 9a6f36c08f1ff93ff861e6371e081122a564c900 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Karel Zak Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2014 10:15:40 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] bootchart: ask for --rel when failed to initialize graph start time We always read system uptime before log start time. So the uptime should be always smaller number, except it includes system suspend time. It seems better to ask for --rel and exit() than try to be smart and try to recovery from this situation or generate huge messy graphs. --- src/bootchart/bootchart.c | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/bootchart/bootchart.c b/src/bootchart/bootchart.c index fc00b4e3f..5683025b1 100644 --- a/src/bootchart/bootchart.c +++ b/src/bootchart/bootchart.c @@ -350,6 +350,14 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { log_uptime(); + if (graph_start < 0.0) { + fprintf(stderr, + "Failed to setup graph start time.\n\nThe system uptime " + "probably includes time that the system was suspended.
