Ken Giusti created PROTON-985:
---------------------------------
Summary: Modify pn_transport_tick to explicitly use a monotonic
clock, not wall clock time
Key: PROTON-985
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-985
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-c
Affects Versions: 0.10
Reporter: Ken Giusti
Assignee: Ken Giusti
Fix For: 0.11
The timestamp argument to pn_transport_tick is a pn_timestamp_t.
pn_timestamp_t implies real time (wall clock) in that it's expressed as a time
value based on epoch.
As seen in QPID-6698, using a real time value for that argument can lead to
problems if the real time is adjusted (eg. timezone, daylight savings, drift).
Instead, pn_transport_tick should be passed a monotonic clock source - one that
does not reflect changes in real time.
All documentation and examples should be updated accordingly.
