NAME
pcap_get_tstamp_precision - get the time stamp precision returned in
captures
SYNOPSIS
#include <pcap/pcap.h>
int pcap_get_tstamp_precision(pcap_t *p);
DESCRIPTION
pcap_get_tstamp_precision() returns the precision of the time stamp
returned in packet captures on the pcap descriptor.
RETURN VALUE
pcap_get_tstamp_precision() returns PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_MICRO or
PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_NANO, which indicates that pcap captures contains
time stamps in microseconds or nanoseconds respectively.
