Hi All, We are trying to see if changing the system date(hardware clock) during sleep time of a process causes the process to exit abruptly or not. It seems when we use gettimeofday(), the process hangs but when we use clock_gettime(...,CLOCK_MONOTONIC) by defining USE_MONOTONIC in the attached c file the program works. Can anyone tell me why gettimeofday() will cause the process to hang and why clock_gettime() will work? Thanks in advance Regards Prasanta
