You can obtain the clock offset (local RT clock vs. master RT clock) via
the TDMA discipline device, see this header for available IOCTLs:

http://www.rts.uni-hannover.de/rtnet/lxr/source/stack/include/rtmac.h

Here is an example how to use it when also synchronising the task
execution on the TDMA cycle. I guess you will more likely be interested
in RTMAC_RTIOC_TIMEOFFSET, but the prologue/epilogue is similar.

rt_task_sleep_until, clock_nanosleep, or whatever your favourite RT API
looks like...?
