TIME(2)                       System Calls Manual                      TIME(2)



NAME
       time, nsec - time in seconds and nanoseconds since epoch

SYNOPSIS
       #include <u.h>
       #include <libc.h>

       long time(long *tp)

       vlong nsec(void)

DESCRIPTION
       Both  time  and nsec return the time since the epoch 00:00:00 GMT, Jan.
       1, 1970.  The return value of the former is in seconds and  the  latter
       in  nanoseconds.   For  time, if tp is not zero then *tp is also set to
       the answer.

       These functions work by reading /dev/bintime.
