+.Nd wait on a condition variable for a specific amount of time
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Fd #include <pthread.h>
+.Ft int
+.Fn pthread_cond_timedwait "pthread_cond_t *cond" "pthread_mutex_t *mutex" "const struct timespec *abstime"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn pthread_cond_timedwait
+function atomically blocks the current thread waiting on the condition
+variable specified by
+.Fa cond ,
+and unblocks the mutex specified by
+.Fa mutex .
+The waiting thread unblocks only after another thread calls
+.Xr pthread_cond_signal 3 ,
+or
+.Xr pthread_cond_broadcast 3
+with the same condition variable, or if the system time reaches the
+time specified in
+.Fa abstime ,
+and the current thread reaquires the lock on
+.Fa mutex .
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+If successful, the
+.Fn pthread_cond_timedwait
+function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned to
+indicate the error.
+.Sh ERRORS
+.Fn pthread_cond_timedwait
+will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+The value specified by
+.Fa cond
+or the value specified by
+.Fa attr

+.It Bq Er ETIMEDOUT
+The system time has reached or exceeded the time specified in
+.Fa abstime .
