From db13e32cb8d5f74fe61880459c7ddf8f47da436b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Crowe Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2019 18:05:12 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] support: Add xclock_now helper function. It's easier to read and write tests with: const struct timespec ts = xclock_now(CLOCK_REALTIME); than struct timespec ts; xclock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &ts); * support/xtime.h: Add xclock_now() helper function. --- ChangeLog | 4 ++++ support/xtime.h | 10 ++++++++++ 2 files changed, 14 insertions(+) diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 05291d7..de58169 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,7 @@ +2019-06-20 Mike Crowe + + * support/xtime.h: Add xclock_now() helper function. + 2019-06-20 Dmitry V.
