+.Nm binuptime ,
+.Nm getbinuptime ,
+.Nm microuptime ,
+.Nm getmicrouptime ,
+.Nm nanouptime ,
+.Nm getnanouptime
+.Nd get the time elapsed since boot
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/time.h
+.Ft void
+.Fn binuptime "struct bintime *bt"
+.Ft void
+.Fn getbinuptime "struct bintime *bt"
+.Ft void
+.Fn microuptime "struct timeval *tv"
+.Ft void
+.Fn getmicrouptime "struct timeval *tv"
+.Ft void
+.Fn nanouptime "struct timespec *ts"
+.Ft void
+.Fn getnanouptime "struct timespec *tsp"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn binuptime
+and
+.Fn getbinuptime
+functions store the time elapsed since boot as a
+.Vt "struct bintime"
+at the address specified by
+.Fa bt .
+The
+.Fn microuptime
+and
+.Fn getmicrouptime
+functions perform the same utility, but record the elapsed time as a
+.Vt "struct timeval"
+instead.
+Similarly the
+.Fn nanouptime
+and
+.Fn getnanouptime
+functions store the elapsed time as a
+.Vt "struct timespec" .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn binuptime ,
+.Fn microuptime ,
+and
+.Fn nanouptime
+functions
+always query the timecounter to return the current time as precisely as
+possible.
+Whereas
+.Fn getbinuptime ,
+.Fn getmicrouptime ,
+and
+.Fn getnanouptime
+functions are abstractions which return a less precise, but
+faster to obtain, time.
+.Pp
+The intent of the
+.Fn getbinuptime ,
+.Fn getmicrouptime ,
+and
+.Fn getnanouptime
+functions is to enforce the user's preference for timer accuracy versus
+execution time.
