From: Arve Hjønnevåg Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2008 22:28:08 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Input: Use monotonic time for event time stamps. X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~9833^2~5^2~328 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=36c83de7181079b3e5ce339c6d15172adaab960a;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git Input: Use monotonic time for event time stamps. Since wall time can jump backwards, it cannot be used to determine if one event occured before another or for how long a key was pressed.
