+.Sh NAME
+.Nm times
+.Nd process times
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <sys/times.h>
+.Ft clock_t 
+.Fn times "struct tms *tp"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Bf -symbolic
+This interface is obsoleted by getrusage(2)
+and gettimeofday(3).
+.Ef
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn times
+function returns the value of time in
+.Dv CLK_TCK Ns 's
+of a second since
+0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds, January 1, 1970, Coordinated Universal
+Time.
+.Pp
+It also fills in the structure pointed to by
+.Fa tp
+with time-accounting information.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa tms
+structure is defined as follows:
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+typedef struct {
+	clock_t tms_utime;
+	clock_t tms_stime;
+	clock_t tms_cutime;
+	clock_t tms_cstime;
+}
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The elements of this structure are defined as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width tms_cutime
+.It Fa tms_utime
+The
+.Tn CPU
+time charged for the execution of user instructions.
+.It Fa tms_stime
+The
+.Tn CPU
+time charged for execution by the system on behalf of
+the process.
+.It Fa tms_cutime
+The sum of the
+.Fa tms_utime  s
+and
+.Fa tms_cutime  s
+of the child processes.
+.It Fa tms_cstime
+The sum of the
+.Fa tms_stime Ns s
+and
+.Fa tms_cstime Ns s
+of the child processes.
+.El
+.Pp
+All times are in
+.Dv CLK_TCK Ns 's
+of a second.
+.Pp
+The times of a terminated child process are included in the
+.Fa tms_cutime
+and
+.Fa tms_cstime
+elements of the parent when one of the
+.Xr wait 2
+functions returns the process ID of the terminated child to the parent.
+If an error occurs,
+.Fn times
+returns the value
+.Pq (clock_t)\-1 ,
+and sets 
+.Va errno
+to indicate the error.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn times
+function
+may fail and set the global variable
+.Va errno
+for any of the errors specified for the library
+routines
+.Xr getrusage 2
+and
+.Xr gettimeofday 2 .
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr time 1 ,
+.Xr getrusage 2 ,
+.Xr gettimeofday 2 ,
+.Xr wait 2
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Fn times
+function
+conforms to
+.St -p1003.1-88 .
