Hi Salman,
You just have to modifiy lttng to implement your own trace clock, and
use that instead of the monotonic clock. Then, you must, for your
architecture, override the clock {} metadata description generated by
lttng, ideally by providing an arch-specific implementation in a header
added to lttng-modules (and moving a #define of the monotonic clock
description to a generic header).
Thanks,
Mathieu
