man: Do not install timeval(3bsd) nor timespec(3bsd)
These are system types, which we should not be documenting. Rewrite the man pages around the TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC and TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL macros.

|

|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||||
|
The
|
||||||
|
.Va timeval
|
||||||
|
structure represents elapsed time, in whole seconds,
|
||||||
|
and the rest of the elapsed time in microseconds.
|
||||||
|
.Pp
|
||||||
|
The
|
||||||
|
.Va timespec
|
||||||
|
structure represents elapsed time, in whole seconds,
|
||||||
|
and the rest of the elapsed time in nanoseconds.
|
||||||
|
.Pp
|
||||||
|
A microsecond is equal to one millionth of a second,
|
||||||
|
1000 nanoseconds, or 1/1000 milliseconds.
|
||||||
|
To ease the conversions, the macros
|
||||||
|
.Fn TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC
|
||||||
|
and
|
||||||
|
.Fn TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL
|
||||||
|
can be used to convert between
|
||||||
|
.Em struct timeval
|
||||||
|
and
|
||||||
|
.Em struct timespec .
|
||||||
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
||||||
|
It can be stressed that the traditional
|
||||||
|
.Tn UNIX
|
||||||
|
.Va timeval
|
||||||
|
and
|
||||||
|
.Va timespec
|
||||||
|
structures represent elapsed time, measured by the system clock.
|
||||||
|
The following sketch implements a function suitable
|
||||||
|
for use in a context where the
|
||||||
|
.Va timespec
|
||||||
|
structure is required for a conditional timeout:
|
||||||
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
||||||
|
static void
|
||||||
|
example(struct timespec *spec, time_t minutes)
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
struct timeval elapsed;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(void)gettimeofday(&elapsed, NULL);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC(&elapsed, spec);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
/* Add the offset for timeout in minutes. */
|
||||||
|
spec->tv_sec = spec->tv_sec + minutes * 60;
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
.Ed
|
||||||
|

|

A better alternative would use the more precise
