NAME

6       iv_now, iv_validate_now, iv_invalidate_now - ivykis time handling
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <iv.h>
10
11       extern struct timespec iv_now;
12       void iv_validate_now(void);
13       void iv_invalidate_now(void);
14

DESCRIPTION

16       iv_now is a global variable that represents a monotonic timer.
17
18       The  contents  of iv_now might be stale.  Calling the function iv_vali‐
19       date_now ensures that the current contents of iv_now are up-to-date.
20
21       The function iv_invalidate_now is called to  invalidate  the  currently
22       cached  time.   This function should be called after any operation that
23       takes a significant amount of wall clock time.
