+.Sh NAME
+.Nm timeradd ,
+.Nm timersub ,
+.Nm timerclear ,
+.Nm timerisset ,
+.Nm timercmp
+.Nd operations on timevals
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/time.h
+.Ft void
+.Fn timeradd "struct timeval *a" "struct timeval *b" "struct timeval *res"
+.Ft void
+.Fn timersub "struct timeval *a" "struct timeval *b" "struct timeval *res"
+.Ft void
+.Fn timerclear "struct timeval *tvp"
+.Ft int
+.Fn timerisset "struct timeval *tvp"
+.Ft int
+.Fn timercmp "struct timeval *a" "struct timeval *b" CMP
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These macros are provided for manipulating
+.Fa timeval
+structures for use with the
+.Xr gettimeofday 2
+and
+.Xr settimeofday 2
+calls.
+The structure is defined in
+.In sys/time.h
+as:
+.Bd -literal
+struct timeval {
+	long	tv_sec;		/* seconds since Jan. 1, 1970 */
+	long	tv_usec;	/* and microseconds */
+};
+.Ed
+.Pp
+.Fn timeradd
+adds the time information stored in
+.Fa a
+to
+.Fa b
+and stores the resulting
+.Vt timeval
+in
+.Fa res .
+The results are simplified such that the value of
+.Fa res->tv_usec
+is always less than 1,000,000 (1 second).
+.Pp
+.Fn timersub
+subtracts the time information stored in
+.Fa b
+from
+.Fa a
+and stores the resulting
+.Vt timeval
+in
+.Fa res .
+.Pp
+.Fn timerclear
+initializes
+.Fa tvp
+to midnight (0 hour) January 1st, 1970 (the Epoch).
+.Pp
+.Fn timerisset
+returns true if
+.Fa tvp
+is set to any time value other than the Epoch.
+.Pp
+.Fn timercmp
+compares
+.Fa a
+to
+.Fa b
+using the comparison operator given in
+.Fa CMP ,
+and returns the result of that comparison.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr gettimeofday 2
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Fn timeradd
+family of macros were imported from
+.Nx 1.1 ,
+and appeared in
+.Fx 2.2.6 .
