Determine amount of time to process
Hello all,
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction...
I have a script written in bash which is pretty basic and just stop/starts various services based on particular conditions. What I am trying to build is a reporting type function which will send out an email with various stats and one of which I would like to include is the amount of time it took for the various condition to complete..
My initial thoughts were to assign the current system date to a variable at the beginning of the condition and then once complete assign the date to a new variable, compare the difference and then I would have my answer...
Does anyone have any sample script that would work in this situation or know of a better way to attempt this?
Thanks

NAME
pthread_condattr_getpshared(), pthread_condattr_setpshared() - get or set the process-shared attribute
SYNOPSIS
PARAMETERS
attr Pointer to the condition variable attributes object whose process-shared attribute is to be set/retrieved.
pshared This parameter either specifies the new value of the process-shared attribute (set function) or it points to the memory
location where the process-shared attribute of attr is to be returned (get function).
DESCRIPTION
The attributes object attr must have been previously initialized with the function before these functions are called.
The functions are used to set and retrieve the process-shared attribute in a condition variable attributes object. The legal values for
the process-shared attribute are:
This option permits a condition variable to be operated upon by any thread
that has access to the memory where the condition variable is allocated. The application is responsible for allocating the
condition variable in memory that multiple processes can access.
The condition variable can be operated on only by threads created within
the same process as the thread that initialized the condition variable. If threads of differing processes attempt to operate
on such condition variable, the behavior is undefined.
The default value of process-shared is
sets the process-shared attribute in attr. The new value of the process-shared attribute of attr is set to the value specified in the
pshared parameter.
retrieves the value of the process-shared attribute from attr. The value of the process-shared attribute of attr is returned in the
pshared parameter.

The value specified by
pshared is not a legal value.
For each of the following conditions, if the condition is detected, the function returns the corresponding error number:
The value specified by
attr or pshared is invalid.
WARNINGS
If a condition variable is created with the process-shared attribute defined as the cooperating processes should have access to the memory
in which the condition variable is allocated.
