NAME

	time, nsec – time in seconds and nanoseconds since epoch

SYNOPSIS

	#include <u.h> #include <libc.h> long time(long *tp) vlong nsec(void)

DESCRIPTION

	Both time and nsec return the time since the epoch 00:00:00 GMT, Jan. 1, 1970. The return value of the former is in seconds and the latter in nanoseconds. For time, if tp is not zero then *tp is also set to the answer. These functions work by reading /dev/bintime.
