sd_journal_get_realtime_usec()
gets the realtime (wallclock) timestamp of the
- current journal entry. It takes two arguments: the
- journal context object and a pointer to a 64 Bit
+ current journal entry. It takes two arguments: the
+ journal context object and a pointer to a 64-bit
unsigned integer to store the timestamp in. The
timestamp is in microseconds since the epoch,
i.e. CLOCK_REALTIME.
sd_journal_get_monotonic_usec()
gets the monotonic timestamp of the current journal
- entry. It takes three arguments: the journal context
- object, a pointer to a 64 Bit unsigned integer to
- store the timestamp in as well as a 128 Bit ID buffer
- to store the boot ID of the monotonic timestamp
- in. The timestamp is in microseconds since boot-up of
