times (2) man page

times (2) man page

[Simone Piccardi]

Hi, as found here:

http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man2/times.2.html

at the end of the page, at the end of the BUGS section, there is:

The same problem can occur when the return value wraps
passed the maximum value that can be stored in clockid_t.

But the return value is defined ad clock_t. I believe is a typo, but I'd
like to be sure.

Regards
Simone
