RFC 792 defines the ICMP Originate Timestamp field as milliseconds
since midnight UTC. However, ping(8) currently derives this value
from CLOCK_MONOTONIC, which represents time since an unspecified
starting point and is not related to UTC.
The issue was introduced by commit 1ad76f1b6047, which replaced
gettimeofday(2) with clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for timekeeping
in ping(8).
Fix this by using CLOCK_REALTIME when generating the ICMP originate
timestamp.
Before:
$ ping -Mt -c1 127.0.0.1
ICMP_TSTAMP
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
<...> time=0.061 ms tso=16:50:31 tsr=17:38:28 tst=17:38:28
(note the tso is off)
After:
$ ping -Mt -c1 127.0.0.1
ICMP_TSTAMP
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
<...> time=0.038 ms tso=17:42:09 tsr=17:42:09 tst=17:42:09
