pub fn monotonic_time() -> i64Expand description
Queries the system monotonic time.
The monotonic clock will always increase and doesn’t suffer discontinuities when the user (or NTP) changes the system time. It may or may not continue to tick during times where the machine is suspended.
We try to use the clock that corresponds as closely as possible to
the passage of time as measured by system calls such as
poll() but it
may not always be possible to do this.
§Returns
