NAME
time, stime - get/set date and time
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <time.h>
time_t time(time_t *tp)
int stime(time_t *tp)
DESCRIPTION
The system's notion of the current Greenwich time is
obtained with the time call, and set with the stime call.
The time is expressed in seconds since midnight (0 hour),
January 1, 1970. The time is both returned by time and
stored in the variable pointed to by tp unless tp is the
null pointer.
Stime obtains the time to set from the variable pointed to
by tp.
Only the super-user may set the time of day.
RETURN
A 0 return value from stime indicates that the call suc-
ceeded. Time returns the current time on success. A -1
return value indicates an error occurred, and in this case
an error code is stored into the global variable errno.
ERRORS
The following error codes may be set in errno:
[EFAULT] The tp address referenced invalid memory.
[EPERM] A user other than the super-user attempted to
set the time.
