BINTIME_ADD(9)						   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					    BINTIME_ADD(9)

NAME
     bintime_add -- operations on ``bintime''

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/time.h>

     vid
     bintime_add(struct bintime *bt, const struct bintime *bt2);

     void
     bintime_addx(struct bintime *bt, uint64_t x);

     void
     bintime_sub(struct bintime *bt, const struct bintime *bt2);

     void
     bintime2timespec(const struct bintime *bt, struct timespec *ts);

     void
     timespec2bintime(const struct timespec *ts, struct bintime *bt);

     void
     bintime2timeval(const struct bintime *bt, struct timeval *tv);

     void
     timeval2bintime(const struct timeval *tv, struct bintime *bt);

DESCRIPTION
     These functions are provided for convenience as part of the machine-independent timecounter(9) framework.	All of them operate with the
     bintime structure.

     The function bintime_add() adds the time information stored in bt2 to bt.	Conversely, bintime_sub() subtracts bt2 from bt.  The
     bintime_addx() function stores the fraction of a second x to bt.

     Like the function names bespeak, bintime2timespec() converts the bintime structure to struct timespec and timespec2bintime() does the oppo-
     site.  The functions bintime2timeval() and timeval2bintime() operate with struct timeval instead.	The result is stored to the right-hand
     side.
