+.SH NAME
+time.h \- time types
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <time.h>\fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+Some of the functionality described on this reference page extends
+the ISO\ C standard. Applications shall define
+the appropriate feature test macro (see the System Interfaces volume
+of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 2.2, The Compilation Environment)
+to enable the visibility of these symbols in this
+header.
+.LP
+The \fI<time.h>\fP header shall declare the structure \fBtm\fP, which
+shall include at least the following members:
+.sp
+.RS
+.nf
+
+\fBint tm_sec \fP Seconds [0,60]. \fB
+int tm_min \fP Minutes [0,59]. \fB
+int tm_hour \fP Hour [0,23]. \fB
+int tm_mday \fP Day of month [1,31]. \fB
+int tm_mon \fP Month of year [0,11]. \fB
+int tm_year \fP Years since 1900. \fB
+int tm_wday \fP Day of week [0,6] (Sunday =0). \fB
+int tm_yday \fP Day of year [0,365]. \fB
+int tm_isdst\fP Daylight Savings flag. \fB
+\fP
+.fi
+.RE
+.LP
+The value of \fItm_isdst\fP shall be positive if Daylight Savings
+Time is in effect, 0 if Daylight Savings Time is not in
+effect, and negative if the information is not available.
+.LP
+The \fI<time.h>\fP header shall define the following symbolic names:
+.TP 7
+NULL
+Null pointer constant.
+.TP 7
+CLOCKS_PER_SEC
+A number used to convert the value returned by the \fIclock\fP() function
+into
+seconds.
+.TP 7
+CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
+.sp
+The identifier of the CPU-time clock associated with the process making
+a \fIclock\fP() or
+\fItimer*\fP() function call.
+.TP 7
+CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID
+.sp
+The identifier of the CPU-time clock associated with the thread making
+a \fIclock\fP() or \fItimer*\fP() function call.
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fI<time.h>\fP header shall declare the structure \fBtimespec\fP,
+which has at least the following members:
+.sp
+.RS
+.nf
+
+\fBtime_t tv_sec \fP Seconds. \fB
+long tv_nsec \fP Nanoseconds. \fB
+\fP
+.fi
+.RE
+.LP
+The \fI<time.h>\fP header shall also declare the \fBitimerspec\fP
+structure, which has at least the following
+members:
+.sp
+.RS
+.nf
+
+\fBstruct timespec it_interval \fP Timer period. \fB
+struct timespec it_value \fP Timer expiration. \fB
+\fP
+.fi
+.RE
+.LP
+The following manifest constants shall be defined:
+.TP 7
+CLOCK_REALTIME
+The identifier of the system-wide realtime clock.
+.TP 7
+TIMER_ABSTIME
+Flag indicating time is absolute. For functions taking timer objects,
+this refers to the clock associated with the timer.
+.TP 7
+CLOCK_MONOTONIC
+.sp
+The identifier for the system-wide monotonic clock, which is defined
+as a clock whose value cannot be set via \fIclock_settime\fP() and
+which cannot have backward clock jumps. The maximum possible clock
+jump shall be implementation-defined.
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBclock_t\fP, \fBsize_t\fP, \fBtime_t\fP, \fBclockid_t\fP,
+and \fBtimer_t\fP types shall be defined as described in \fI<sys/types.h>\fP
+\&.
+.LP
+Although the value of CLOCKS_PER_SEC is required to be 1 million on
+all XSI-conformant systems, it may be variable on other
+systems, and it should not be assumed that CLOCKS_PER_SEC is a compile-time
+constant.
+.LP
+The \fI<time.h>\fP header shall provide a declaration for \fIgetdate_err\fP.
+.LP
+The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined
+as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.

+.LP
+Inclusion of the \fI<time.h>\fP header may make visible all symbols
+from the \fI<signal.h>\fP header.
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH APPLICATION USAGE
+.LP
+The range [0,60] for \fItm_sec\fP allows for the occasional leap second.
+.LP
+\fItm_year\fP is a signed value; therefore, years before 1900 may
+be represented.
+.LP
+To obtain the number of clock ticks per second returned by the \fItimes\fP()
+function,
+applications should call \fIsysconf\fP(_SC_CLK_TCK).
+.SH RATIONALE
+.LP
+The range [0,60] seconds allows for positive or negative leap seconds.
+The formal definition of UTC does not permit double leap
+seconds, so all mention of double leap seconds has been removed, and
+the range shortened from the former [0,61] seconds seen in
+previous versions of POSIX.
+.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+.LP
+None.
