Determining number of dropped samples from USRP Sink in TX chain

Hey,

 

I’m wondering if there is any possibility to programmatically check how long an underrun event in a flowgraph that uses a USRP sink lasted.

 

I do get messages from the sink when and that an underrun happened, but I can’t see if that was for 1 ms or 20 seconds.

 

>    message_debug :warning: Message: (uhd_async_msg (channel . 0) (time_spec 1333 . 0.277859) (event_code underflow))

>    Umessage_debug :warning: Message: (uhd_async_msg (channel . 0) (time_spec 1333 . 0.280334) (event_code underflow)) 

 

When googling I find a bunch of stuff on _overruns_, but this is in the transmit path.

 

Background is that a very short underrun we can live with, but a long interruption would be bad. I don’t fancy sitting next to the USRP and staring at the LED for days…

 

Is there any way to query the USRP for further information on the event?

Thanks!
