    The Boot Optimization Guide describes techniques you can use to reduce the time from your board's initial power on until you have a fully functional QNX system running on the board.
  - Building Embedded Systems
    The Building Embedded Systems guide is intended for developers who are developing or building BSPs for QNX OS embedded systems.
  - Customizing a BSP
    While QNX provides Board Support Packages (BSPs) for many common platforms and their individual variants, in some cases, you need a BSP for a board that QNX does not provide. If this is the case, you can modify a QNX BSP or develop your own.

    - Overview
    - Privilege Control
      Like other components that run on QNX OS, the privileged operations required by io-sock and networking components are protected by process manager abilities. These abilities are configured either directly by the components themselves, or, preferably, via security policies that are defined by the system integrator.

ptp_tstmp_locate()

Return a pointer to a memory buffer tag's ptp_tstmp structure

Synopsis:

#include <qnx/ptp/ptp_mod.h>

struct ptp_tstmp* ptp_tstmp_locate(struct mbuf *m,
                                   uint16_t type)

Arguments:

m: The mbuf containing the packet.
type: One of the MTAG_PTP_*_TSTMP memory buffer tag types (for values, go to Memory buffer tag (m_tag) macros).

Library:

ptp

Description:

Searches the memory buffer's tags for the given tag type, and returns a pointer to its ptp_tstmp structure.

Returns:

Pointer to a ptp_tstmp on success; otherwise, one of the following:

- NULL - Unable to find a tag of the given type in the mbuf.
