    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_journal_get_realtime_usec()</function> gets the
    realtime (wallclock) timestamp of the current journal entry. It
    takes two arguments: the journal context object and a pointer to a
    64-bit unsigned integer to store the timestamp in. The timestamp
    is in microseconds since the epoch, i.e.
    <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>.</para>

    <para><function>sd_journal_get_monotonic_usec()</function> gets
    the monotonic timestamp of the current journal entry. It takes
    three arguments: the journal context object, a pointer to a 64-bit
    unsigned integer to store the timestamp in, as well as a 128-bit
    ID buffer to store the boot ID of the monotonic timestamp. The
    timestamp is in microseconds since boot-up of the specific boot,
    i.e. <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since the monotonic
    clock begins new with every reboot, it only defines a well-defined
    point in time when used together with an identifier identifying
    the boot. See
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    for more information. If the boot ID parameter is passed
    <constant>NULL</constant>, the function will fail if the monotonic
    timestamp of the current entry is not of the current system
    boot.</para>

    <para>Note that these functions will not work before
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
    (or related call) has been called at least
    once, in order to position the read pointer at a valid entry.</para>

    <title>Return Value</title>

    <para><function>sd_journal_get_realtime_usec()</function> and
    <function>sd_journal_get_monotonic_usec()</function> returns 0 on
    success or a negative errno-style error code. If the boot ID
    parameter was passed <constant>NULL</constant> and the monotonic
    timestamp of the current journal entry is not of the current
    system boot, <constant>-ESTALE</constant> is returned by
    <function>sd_journal_get_monotonic_usec()</function>.</para>
