On a device like a cellphone which is constantly suspending and resuming CLOCK_MONOTONIC is not particularly useful for keeping track of or reacting to external network events. Instead you want to use CLOCK_BOOTTIME. Hence add bpf_ktime_get_boot_ns() as a mirror of bpf_ktime_get_ns() based around CLOCK_BOOTTIME instead of CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
