Description

e_REALTIME

System clock that returns the current wall time maintained by the system, and which is affected by adjustments to the system's clock (i.e., time values returned may jump "forwards" and "backwards" as the current time‐of‐day is changed on the system).

e_MONOTONIC

System clock that returns the elapsed time since some unspecified starting point in the past. The returned values are monotonically non‐decreasing, and are generally not affected by changes to the system time.
