Why would it matter? The deadline would be specified in terms of a monotonic clock that's unaffected by wall time adjustments. So even if some crude NTP implementation steps your clock by seconds (or a leap second is inserted), it shouldn't matter for the deadline calculation.
- Bino 10y agoI think most of my timeout/deadlines relative to the monotonic time. Hence specifying the absolute monotonic time would just involve yet another syscall (to query the time). Is there a really good argument to specify a absolute monotonic time?
- dbmikus 10y agoThen you need to send information to agree on a monotonic clock time.
