TIMES(3C)               COMMAND REFERENCE               TIMES(3C)



NAME
     times - get process times

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/times.h>

     times(buffer)
     struct tms *buffer;

DESCRIPTION
     This interface is obsoleted by getrusage(2).

     The times utility 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 returned by times:

          /*
           * Structure returned 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 times are the sum of the children's process
     times and their children's times.
