.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn timer*
and
.Fn timespec*
macros defined in
.In sys/time.h
simplify the use of
.Vt timeval
and
.Vt timespec
structures,
respectively.
.Pp
The following macros are available:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fn timerclear a , Fn timespecclear a
Set the time value in
.Fa a
to zero.
.It Fn timerisset a , Fn timespecisset a
Test if the time value in
.Fa a
is non-zero.
.It Fn timerisvalid a
Test if the microsecond value in
.Fa a
is greater than or equal to zero and less than one million.
.It Fn timespecisvalid a
Test if the nanosecond value in
.Fa a
is greater than or equal to zero and less than one billion.
.It Fn timercmp a b operator , Fn timespeccmp a b operator
Test if the expression
.Fa a operator b
is true,
where
.Fa operator
is one of
.Cm < ,
.Cm <= ,
.Cm == ,
.Cm != ,
.Cm >= ,
or
.Cm > .
.It Fn timersub a b c , Fn timespecsub a b c
Subtract
.Fa b
from
.Fa a
and store the result in
.Fa c .
.It Fn timeradd a b c , Fn timespecadd a b c
Add
.Fa b
to
.Fa a
and store the result in
.Fa c .
.It Fn TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC tv ts
Convert
.Fa tv
to a
.Vt struct timespec
and store the result in
.Fa ts .
.It Fn TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL tv ts
Convert
.Fa ts
to a
.Vt struct timeval
and store the result in
.Fa tv .
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The macros returning
.Vt int
return 1 if the tested condition holds or 0 otherwise.
.Sh SEE ALSO

.Sh STANDARDS
These macros are non-standard,
though many systems offer them.
Similar interfaces are often available in their absence.
.Sh HISTORY
The macros
.Fn timerclear ,
.Fn timerisset ,
and
.Fn timercmp
first appeared in
.Bx 4.1c ,
.Fn TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC
and
.Fn TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL
in
.Bx 4.4 ,
.Fn timersub
and
.Fn timeradd
in
.Nx 1.1 ,
and
.Fn timerisvalid
in
.Ox 6.5 .
.Sh CAVEATS
The argument ordering for
.Fn TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL
is unintuitive.
