From c2636b575cd40f4638e5b0718e8f67a33b8c7007 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2016 17:13:26 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] clock offset: print negative value in metadata for lttng-ust metadata MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In the upcoming 2.8, we can print the negative value of clock offset in the metadata, and expect users to update their viewers to correct any bug that could prevent them from handling those negative values. This happens only in cases where the system sets CLOCK_REALTIME to 0 after boot, thus leading to a negative clock offset value between realtime and monotonic clocks.
