-.Sh NAME
-.Nm sleep
-.Nd suspend process execution for interval of seconds
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Fd #include <unistd.h>
-.Ft u_int
-.Fn sleep "u_int seconds"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Fn sleep
-function
-suspends execution of the calling process
-for
-.Fa seconds
-of time.
-System activity or time spent in processing the
-call may lengthen the sleep by a second.
-.Pp
-If a timer is already running on the process its state is unaltered by
-this
-.Fn sleep
-implementation.
-If the value
-.Fa seconds
-is more than or equal to the remaining clock time for the running timer,
-the sleep time is set to
-the remaining clock time.
-.Pp
-This function is implemented using
-.Xr nanosleep 2
-by pausing for
-.Fa seconds
-of time or until any signal occurse.
-.Sh RETURN VALUES
-The
-.Fn sleep
-function returns the number of seconds remaining to complete the operation. If
-sleep is interrupted or cannot allocate a timer it may will return the value
-needed to be passed to a subsequent sleep to complete the necessary delay.
-.Fn sleep
-repeatedly until it returns zero may busy-wait until a timer
-is available.
