Описание (Description)
The macros are provided to operate on timeval structures, defined
       in <sys/time.h> as:
           struct timeval {
               time_t      tv_sec;     /* seconds */
               suseconds_t tv_usec;    /* microseconds */
           };
       timeradd() adds the time values in a and b, and places the sum in
       the timeval pointed to by res.  The result is normalized such
       that res->tv_usec has a value in the range 0 to 999,999.
       timersub() subtracts the time value in b from the time value in
       a, and places the result in the timeval pointed to by res.  The
       result is normalized such that res->tv_usec has a value in the
       range 0 to 999,999.
       timerclear() zeros out the timeval structure pointed to by tvp,
       so that it represents the Epoch: 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC).
       timerisset() returns true (nonzero) if either field of the
       timeval structure pointed to by tvp contains a nonzero value.
       timercmp() compares the timer values in a and b using the
       comparison operator CMP, and returns true (nonzero) or false (0)
       depending on the result of the comparison.  Some systems (but not
       Linux/glibc), have a broken timercmp() implementation, in which
       CMP of >=, <=, and == do not work; portable applications can
       instead use
           !timercmp(..., <)
           !timercmp(..., >)
           !timercmp(..., !=)
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)
timerisset() and timercmp() return true (nonzero) or false (0).
