NAME

ntptime - read kernel time variables

SYNOPSIS

ntptime [ -chr ] [ -e est_error ] [ -f frequency ] [ -m max_error ] [ -o offset ] [ -s status ] [ -t time_constant ]

DESCRIPTION

This program is useful only with special kernels described in theA Kernel Model for Precision Timekeepingpage. It reads and displays time-related kernel variables using the ntp_gettime() system call. A similar display can be obtained using the ntpdc program and kerninfo command.

OPTIONS

-c

Display the execution time of ntptime itself.

-e

est_error Specify estimated error, in microseconds.

-f

frequency Specify frequency offset, in parts per million.

-h

Display help information.

-m

max_error Specify max possible errors, in microseconds.

-o

offset Specify clock offset, in microseconds.

-r

Display Unix and NTP times in raw format.

-s
