If so, maybe I'll just do that for libpcap. Libpcap *does* have an API to request capturing with nanoseconds in tv_usec (and I plan to give it pcapng-flavored APIs to deliver higher-resolution time stamps, as well as metadata such as "incoming" vs. "outgoing", as well). _______________________________________________ Y2038 mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/y2038
