       NAME
             times - (BSD) get process times

       SYNOPSIS
             /usr/ucb/cc [flag . . . ] file . . .
             #include <sys/types.h>
             #include <sys/times.h>
             int times(struct tms *buffer);

       DESCRIPTION
             times returns time-accounting information for the current
             process and for the terminated child processes of the current
             process.  All times are in 1/HZ seconds, where HZ is 60.

             This is the structure filled in by times:
                   struct tms {
                        time_t  tms_utime;      /* user time */
                        time_t  tms_stime;      /* system time */
                        time_t  tms_cutime;     /* user time, children */
                        time_t  tms_cstime;     /* system time, children */
                   };

             The children's times are the sum of the children's process
             times and their children's times.

          Return Values
             times returns 0 for success and -1 for failure.
