   time    ( 2 )

получить время в секундах (get time in seconds)

Имя (Name)

time - get time in seconds

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <time.h>

time_t time(time_t *tloc);


Описание (Description)

time() returns the time as the number of seconds since the Epoch,
       1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC).

If tloc is non-NULL, the return value is also stored in the memory pointed to by tloc.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

On success, the value of time in seconds since the Epoch is
       returned.  On error, ((time_t) -1) is returned, and errno is set
       to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

EFAULT tloc points outside your accessible address space (but see
              BUGS).

On systems where the C library time() wrapper function invokes an implementation provided by the vdso(7) (so that there is no trap into the kernel), an invalid address may instead trigger a SIGSEGV signal.


Стандарты (Conforming to)

SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89, C99, POSIX.1-2001.  POSIX does not specify any
       error conditions.

Примечание (Note)

POSIX.1 defines seconds since the Epoch using a formula that
       approximates the number of seconds between a specified time and
       the Epoch.  This formula takes account of the facts that all
       years that are evenly divisible by 4 are leap years, but years
       that are evenly divisible by 100 are not leap years unless they
       are also evenly divisible by 400, in which case they are leap
       years.  This value is not the same as the actual number of
       seconds between the time and the Epoch, because of leap seconds
       and because system clocks are not required to be synchronized to
       a standard reference.  The intention is that the interpretation
       of seconds since the Epoch values be consistent; see POSIX.1-2008
       Rationale A.4.15 for further rationale.

On Linux, a call to time() with tloc specified as NULL cannot fail with the error EOVERFLOW, even on ABIs where time_t is a signed 32-bit integer and the clock reaches or exceeds 2**31 seconds (2038-01-19 03:14:08 UTC, ignoring leap seconds). (POSIX.1 permits, but does not require, the EOVERFLOW error in the case where the seconds since the Epoch will not fit in time_t.) Instead, the behavior on Linux is undefined when the system time is out of the time_t range. Applications intended to run after 2038 should use ABIs with time_t wider than 32 bits.


Ошибки (баги) (Bugs)

Error returns from this system call are indistinguishable from
       successful reports that the time is a few seconds before the
       Epoch, so the C library wrapper function never sets errno as a
       result of this call.

The tloc argument is obsolescent and should always be NULL in new code. When tloc is NULL, the call cannot fail.

C library/kernel differences On some architectures, an implementation of time() is provided in the vdso(7).
