std::runtime::posix::time

Source: std/runtime/posix/time.slk

This is the exact canonical documentation page for std::runtime::posix::time.

Role#

std::runtime::posix::time is an implementation-facing runtime module in the shipped std/** tree. It exists so higher-level stdlib surfaces can delegate platform or runtime-specific behavior without changing their public module names.

Canonical Context#

Use the following owning docs for the substantive API/design context for this module:

• runtime
• temporal

Notes#

• The shipped source for this module is std/runtime/posix/time.slk.
• The canonical module name is std::runtime::posix::time.
• Hosted clock reads use the bundled silk_rt_clock_now_ns implementation helper. The helper stores struct timespec on the calling thread's C stack, validates tv_sec, tv_nsec, and the final signed-nanosecond range, and reports failure as -1.
• Clock reads do not allocate from Silk's active region. They are therefore reentrant across task-pool workers and remain available in --noheap programs.
• This page is intentionally implementation-oriented. Downstream users should usually start with the higher-level std module docs listed above unless they are working on the runtime layer itself.
