If you build a kernel with printk timestamps, you'll see that they all come out like this: [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpu [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.8.0-rc3-next-20130117-dirty (valdis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.7.2 20121109 (Red Hat 4.7.2-9) (GCC) ) #49 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 17 13:25:28 EST 2013 [ 0.000000] Command line: ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_blackice-root log_buf_len=2M vga=893 loglevel=4 threadirqs intel_iommu=off LANG=en_US.UTF-8 [ 0.000000] KERNEL supported cpus: [ 0.000000] Intel GenuineIntel [ 0.000000] e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009bbff] usable [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000000009bc00-0x000000000009ffff] reserved (100 or so more lines with same timestamp) (now we finish memory init) [ 0.000000] Dentry cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes) [ 0.000000] Inode-cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 9, 2097152 bytes) [ 0.000000] __ex_table already sorted, skipping sort [ 0.000000] xsave: enabled xstate_bv 0x3, cntxt size 0x240 [ 0.000000] Memory: 4015936k/4718592k available (6266k kernel code, 536744k absent, 165912k reserved, 7260k data, 576k init) (more lines skipped) [ 0.000000] memory used by lock dependency info: 5855 kB [ 0.000000] per task-struct memory footprint: 1920 bytes [ 0.000000] hpet clockevent registered [ 0.000000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration using PIT [ 0.000000] tsc: Detected 2527.012 MHz processor [ 0.001004] Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer frequency.. 5054.02 BogoMIPS (lpj=2527012) [ 0.001009] pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301 [ 0.001100] Security Framework initialized It probably simply be that your code is running before the clock is started by the kernel.
