Module tokio::clock [] [src]

A configurable source of time.

This module provides the now function, which returns an Instant representing "now". The source of time used by this function is configurable (via the tokio-timer crate) and allows mocking out the source of time in tests or performing caching operations to reduce the number of syscalls.

Note that, because the source of time is configurable, it is possible to observe non-monotonic behavior when calling [now] from different executors.
