NAME

       pcap_list_tstamp_types,  pcap_free_tstamp_types - get a list of time stamp types supported
       by a capture device, and free that list

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcap/pcap.h>

       int pcap_list_tstamp_types(pcap_t *p, int **tstamp_typesp);
       void pcap_free_tstamp_types(int *tstamp_types);

DESCRIPTION

       pcap_list_tstamp_types() is used to get a list of the supported time stamp  types  of  the
       interface  associated  with  the  pcap  descriptor.  pcap_list_tstamp_types() allocates an
       array to hold the list and sets *tstamp_typesp to point to the array.  See  pcap-tstamp(7)
       for a list of all the time stamp types.

       The caller is responsible for freeing the array with pcap_free_tstamp_types(), which frees
       the list pointed to by tstamp_types.

RETURN VALUE

       pcap_list_tstamp_types() returns the number of time stamp types in the  array  on  success
       and  PCAP_ERROR  on  failure.   A  return value of one means that the only time stamp type
       supported is the one in the list, which is the capture device's default time  stamp  type.
       A  return value of zero means that the only time stamp type supported is PCAP_TSTAMP_HOST,
       which is the capture device's default time stamp type (only older versions of libpcap will
       return  that;  newer  versions  will  always  return one or more types).  If PCAP_ERROR is
       returned, pcap_geterr(3PCAP) or pcap_perror(3PCAP) may be called with p as an argument  to
       fetch or display the error text.

BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY

       These functions became available in libpcap release 1.2.1.  In previous releases, the time
       stamp type cannot be set; only the default time stamp type offered by a capture source  is
       available.
