-<para>This ioctl call returns the current value of the system time counter (which is driven

- STC, so you must specify which one by setting the num field of stc before the ioctl
- (range 0...n). The result is returned in form of a ratio with a 64 bit numerator
- and a 32 bit denominator, so the real 90kHz STC value is stc-&#x003E;stc /
