<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_message_get_monotonic_usec()</function>
|
||
returns the monotonic timestamp of the time the message was sent.
|
||
This value is in microseconds since the
|
||
<constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant> epoch, see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>clock_gettime</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
for details.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Similar,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_get_realtime_usec()</function> returns
|
||
the realtime (wallclock) timestamp of the time the message was
|
||
sent. This value is in microseconds since Jan 1st, 1970, i.e. in
|
||
the <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant> clock.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_message_get_seqnum()</function> returns the
|
||
kernel-assigned sequence number of the message. The kernel assigns
|
||
a global, monotonically increasing sequence number to all messages
|
||
transmitted on the local system, at the time the message was sent.
|
||
This sequence number is useful for determining message send order,
|
||
even across different busses of the local system. The sequence
|
||
number combined with the boot ID of the system (as returned by
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
|
||
is a suitable globally unique identifier for bus messages.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that the sending order and receiving order of messages
|
||
might differ, in particular for broadcast messages. This means
|
||
that the sequence number and the timestamps of messages a client
|
||
reads are not necessarily monotonically increasing.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>These timestamps and the sequence number are attached to
|
||
each message by the kernel and cannot be manipulated by the
|
||
sender.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that these timestamps are only available on some bus
|
||
transports, and only after support for them has been negotiated
|
||
with the
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_negotiate_timestamp</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
call.</para>

|

<title>Return Value</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On
|
||
failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
|
||
code.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>On success, the timestamp or sequence number is returned in
|
||
the specified 64-bit unsigned integer variable.</para>
