this time from using gettimeofday() to using cloc_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC),
to avoid the effects of UTC leap second insertion which IIUC steps
the system clock back one second, and will cause the single assert()
in dbeacon.cpp to fire. Unfortunately, my core dump was incomplete
due to a full root file system...
PKGREVISION bumped.
gettimeofday() directly. With a 32-bit clock_t and a 100Hz tick,
times() will wrap once every 497 days if my math isn't too far off,
and this will land us in an assert() in dbeacon and with a core dump.
So instead use gettimeofday() and save 2 x getrusage() per earlier
times() call. Retain some protection against gettimeofday() failing.
Bump PKGREVISION.
retry a limited number of times, and log the events. Export log() from
the main program for use in dbeacon_posix.cpp.
Fix the matrix.pl script since qw() no longer acts as parenteses, so add
some of our own where called for.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Collection.
dbeacon is a Multicast Beacon written in C++. The main purpose of
a beacon is to monitor other beacon's reachability and collect
statistics such as loss, delay and jitter between beacons. dbeacon
supports both IPv4 and IPv6 multicast, collecting information via
ASM and SSM.
dbeacon was originally only IPv6 capable, designed to be used in
the m6bone.
