Quoting Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@phk.freebsd.dk> (from Wed, 17 Oct 2007 =20 20:24:14 +0000): > In message <47162F40.8000203@FreeBSD.org>, "Constantine A. Murenin" writes= : > >> You didn't quote my other part of the reply about the ntpd/sensors.c >> example. > > FreeBSD already supports an API for timekeeping events, complying > with the only relevant standard in this area: RFC 2783 He didn't talk about using this for timekeeping stuff in FreeBSD. He =20 used this an an example what could be done for RAID. As you didn't asked for a specific action regarding this I try to do =20 it. Please correct me if I don't get it right: Constantine, we have a standards compliant API for timekeeping events. =20 Any time related stuff should use this API. Please add a text and a =20 pointer, e.g., in the man-page and/or any other sensible place, which =20 tells that our RFC 2783 compliant API shall be used.
