- returns the monotonic timestamp of the time the
- message was sent. This value is in microseconds since
- the <literal>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</literal> epoch, see
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>clock_gettime</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for details.</para>
-
- <para>Similar,
- <function>sd_bus_message_get_realtime_usec()</function>
- returns the realtime (wallclock) timestamp of the time
- the message was sent. This value is in microseconds
- since Jan 1st, 1970, i.e. in the
- <literal>CLOCK_REALTIME</literal> clock.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_bus_message_get_seqnum()</function>
- returns the kernel-assigned sequence number of the
- message. The kernel assigns a global, monotonically
- increasing sequence number to all messages transmitted
- on the local system, at the time the message was
- sent. This sequence number is useful for determining
- message send order, even across different busses of
- the local system. The sequence number combined with
- the boot ID of the system (as returned by
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
- is a suitable globally unique identifier for bus
- messages.</para>
-
- <para>Note that the sending order and receiving order
- of messages might differ, in particular for broadcast
- messages. This means that the sequence number and the
- timestamps of messages a client reads are not
- necessarily monotonically increasing.</para>
-
- <para>These timestamps and the sequence number are
- attached to each message by the kernel and cannot be
- manipulated by the sender.</para>
-
- <para>Note that these timestamps are only available on
- some bus transports, and only after support for them
- has been negotiated with the

- <title>Return Value</title>
-
- <para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive
