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.
.sp
.RS
.nf

char *asctime_r(const struct tm *restrict, char *restrict);

.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.
