Subject: ovsdb: write commit timestamps to millisecond resolution.
X-Git-Tag: v2.0~24
X-Git-Url: http://git.cascardo.eti.br/?p=cascardo%2Fovs.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=340a92017eba6661e17698d0594d76b087d38b06

ovsdb: write commit timestamps to millisecond resolution.

This is expected to make system debugging easier.

This raises two compatibility issues:
1. When a new ovsdb-tool reads an old database, it will multiply by 1000 any
  timestamp it reads which is less than 1<<31. Since this date corresponds to
  Jan 16 1970 this is unlikely to cause a problem.
2. When an old ovsdb-tool reads a new database, it will interpret the
  millisecond timestamps as seconds and report dates in the far future; the
  time of this commit is reported as the year 45672 (each second since the
  epoch is interpreted as 16 minutes).
