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. -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr nanosleep 2 , -.Xr setitimer 2 , -.Xr alarm 3 , -.Xr signal 3 , -.Xr ualarm 3 , -.Xr usleep 3 -.Sh HISTORY -A -.Fn sleep -function appeared in -.At v7 . |
