80 * going to do the same, reading the boot time value while executing
81 * the uptime_init function (there is no need to read, every time the

83 * uptime_init is run only once, if the function fails in retrieving
84 * the boot time, the plugin is unregistered and there is no chance to
85 * try again later. Nevertheless, this is very unlikely to happen.
