    What is this for an offset?

This offset is a difference between the beginning of clock and the actual start of the clock. The event will be recorded just after the offset.

Sorry, I don't know what this means. What is the beginning of the clock and what is the actual start?

From the CTF specification we have:

"The offset_s and offset fields indicate the offset from POSIX.1 Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC), to the zero of value of the clock. The offset_s field is in seconds. The offset field is in (1/freq) units."

The CLOCK_MONOTONIC in RTEMS is based on the boot time. So, if you want to give an offset value you have to figure out the CLOCK_REALTIME value at boot time of the system. This is currently a secondary problem. I would just omit the offset for now.
