для времени дочернего процесса (for child process times)
Пролог (Prolog)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The
Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
Имя (Name)
times — get process and waited-for child process times
Синопсис (Synopsis)
#include <sys/times.h>
clock_t times(struct tms *buffer);
Описание (Description)
The times() function shall fill the tms
structure pointed to by
buffer with time-accounting information. The tms
structure is
defined in <sys/times.h>.
All times are measured in terms of the number of clock ticks
used.
The times of a terminated child process shall be included in the
tms_cutime and tms_cstime elements of the parent when wait(),
waitid(), or waitpid() returns the process ID of this terminated
child. If a child process has not waited for its children, their
times shall not be included in its times.
* The tms_utime structure member is the CPU time charged for
the execution of user instructions of the calling process.
* The tms_stime structure member is the CPU time charged for
execution by the system on behalf of the calling process.
* The tms_cutime structure member is the sum of the tms_utime
and tms_cutime times of the child processes.
* The tms_cstime structure member is the sum of the tms_stime
and tms_cstime times of the child processes.
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)
Upon successful completion, times() shall return the elapsed real
time, in clock ticks, since an arbitrary point in the past (for
example, system start-up time). This point does not change from
one invocation of times() within the process to another. The
return value may overflow the possible range of type clock_t
. If
times() fails, (clock_t
)-1 shall be returned and errno set to
indicate the error.
Ошибки (Error)
The times() function shall fail if:
EOVERFLOW
The return value would overflow the range of clock_t
.
The following sections are informative.
Примеры (Examples)
Timing a Database Lookup
The following example defines two functions, start_clock() and
end_clock(), that are used to time a lookup. It also defines
variables of type clock_t
and tms
to measure the duration of
transactions. The start_clock() function saves the beginning
times given by the times() function. The end_clock() function
gets the ending times and prints the difference between the two
times.
#include <sys/times.h>
#include <stdio.h>
...
void start_clock(void);
void end_clock(char *msg);
...
static clock_t st_time;
static clock_t en_time;
static struct tms st_cpu;
static struct tms en_cpu;
...
void
start_clock()
{
st_time = times(&st_cpu);
}
/* This example assumes that the result of each subtraction
is within the range of values that can be represented in
an integer type. */
void
end_clock(char *msg)
{
en_time = times(&en_cpu);
fputs(msg,stdout);
printf("Real Time: %jd, User Time %jd, System Time %jd\n",
(intmax_t)(en_time - st_time),
(intmax_t)(en_cpu.tms_utime - st_cpu.tms_utime),
(intmax_t)(en_cpu.tms_stime - st_cpu.tms_stime));
}
Использование в приложениях (Application usage)
Applications should use sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK) to determine the
number of clock ticks per second as it may vary from system to
system.
Обоснование (Rationale)
The accuracy of the times reported is intentionally left
unspecified to allow implementations flexibility in design, from
uniprocessor to multi-processor networks.
The inclusion of times of child processes is recursive, so that a
parent process may collect the total times of all of its
descendants. But the times of a child are only added to those of
its parent when its parent successfully waits on the child. Thus,
it is not guaranteed that a parent process can always see the
total times of all its descendants; see also the discussion of
the term ``realtime'' in alarm(3p).
If the type clock_t
is defined to be a signed 32-bit integer, it
overflows in somewhat more than a year if there are 60 clock
ticks per second, or less than a year if there are 100. There are
individual systems that run continuously for longer than that.
This volume of POSIX.1‐2017 permits an implementation to make the
reference point for the returned value be the start-up time of
the process, rather than system start-up time.
The term ``charge'' in this context has nothing to do with
billing for services. The operating system accounts for time used
in this way. That information must be correct, regardless of how
that information is used.
