Hi Thomas,
Probably not very helpful, but iputils' ping has the -D option that is
described as:
-D
Print timestamp (unix time + microseconds as in gettimeofday) before
each line.
this potentially allows to be translated into kernel time to pinpoint events in
time? Not that I would know how to translate times here and if perf and friends
actually store timestamps....
Best Regards
Sebastian
