Assignee: Paul Guo (was: Ed Espino)
> Need to replace gettimeofday() with clock_gettime() for related timeout
> checking code

> Key: HAWQ-1444

> Project: Apache HAWQ
> Issue Type: Bug

> Fix For: backlog

>
> gettimeofday() could be affected by ntp kinda things. If using it for timeout
> logic there could be wrong, e.g. time goes backwards. We could
> clock_gettime() with CLOCK_MONOTONIC as an alternative.
> For some platforms/oses that does not have the support for clock_gettime(),
> we can fall back to use gettimeofday().
> Note getCurrentTime() in code is a good example.
