+ <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>
