<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
retrieves the realtime (wallclock) timestamps of the first and
last entries accessible in the journal. It takes three arguments:
the journal context object <parameter>j</parameter> and two
pointers <parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter>
pointing at 64-bit unsigned integers to store the timestamps in.
The timestamps are in microseconds since the epoch, i.e.
<constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>. Either one of the two
timestamp arguments may be passed as <constant>NULL</constant> in
case the timestamp is not needed, but not both.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_monotonic_usec()</function>
retrieves the monotonic timestamps of the first and last entries
accessible in the journal. It takes three arguments: the journal
context object <parameter>j</parameter>, a 128-bit identifier for
the boot <parameter>boot_id</parameter>, and two pointers to
64-bit unsigned integers to store the timestamps,
<parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter>. The
timestamps are in microseconds since boot-up of the specific boot,
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since the monotonic
clock begins new with every reboot it only defines a well-defined
point in time when used together with an identifier identifying
the boot, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information. The function will return the timestamps for
the boot identified by the passed boot ID. Either one of the two
timestamp arguments may be passed as <constant>NULL</constant> in
case the timestamp is not needed, but not both.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
and <function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_monotonic_usec()</function>
return 1 on success, 0 if not suitable entries are in the journal
or a negative errno-style error code.</para>
<para>Locations pointed to by parameters
<parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter> will be
set only if the return value is positive, and obviously, the
parameters are non-null.</para>
