Previously it was discussed how to make an equivalent of gettimeofday to work on GRUB. Now, I've realized that the current code using gettimeofday is wrong since the date gives no guaranty of being monotonic, and especially it isn't if someone runs "date" or "ntpdate" which is common operation, especially on systems where the RTC battery is failing. brltty should use time/gettimeofday only for timestamping logs and CLOCK_MONOTONIC (probably with some wrapper to make other monotonic clock sources easy to add) for all timing and timeout purposes. -- Regards Vladimir 'φ-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko
