Hi,
I'm playing around with eBPF and I was wondering if there is any way to implement a timer (note: I'm forced to use C to code my eBPF program). I'm collecting traffic stats and after a given interval timeouts I need to process the stats collected so far. I know I can use packet timestamps for this purpose, but in my scenario the traffic is not stable and even zero at regular intervals.
Thanks in advance!

bpf_timer_init/set_callback/start may satisfy your requirements.
