NAME
dtk_gettime - high resolution timestamp
SYNOPSIS
#include <dtk_time.h> void dtk_gettime(struct dtk_timespec* ts);
DESCRIPTION
The function dtk_gettime() retrieves the time of a high precision clock. The time is returned in the ts argument which is a pointer to a dtk_timespec structure defined as: struct dtk_timespec { long sec; /* seconds */ long nsec; /* nanoseconds */ }; The time represents seconds and nanoseconds since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC).
RETURN VALUE
None
NOTE
This function is wrapper to clock_gettime(2) if it is provided by the system. Otherwise, it implements the function by using the timer with the highest precision available on the system.
