Only the shared memory interface currently has functionality like this, and it has some limitations in the information it can convey. If this interface is improved, all the local clock drivers can be moved out into separate processes and everyone can tinker his driver to fix problems like this one. It will also be easier to release a fixed driver once a problem like this suddenly appears.
