TIMES(II)  −  PWB/UNIX 8/5/73

NAME

times − get process times

SYNOPSIS

(times = 43.; not in assembler)
sys  times; buffer times(buffer)
struct tbuffer *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 1/60 seconds.  After the call, the buffer will appear as follows:

struct tbuffer {
intproc_user_time;
intproc_system_time;
intchild_user_time[2];
intchild_system_time[2];
};

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