+.Sh NAME
+.Nm usleep
+.Nd suspend process execution for an interval measured in microseconds
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libc
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In unistd.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn usleep "useconds_t microseconds"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn usleep
+function suspends execution of the calling process until either
+.Fa microseconds
+microseconds have elapsed or a signal is delivered to the process and its
+action is to invoke a signal-catching function or to terminate the
+process.
+System activity may lengthen the sleep by an indeterminate amount.
+.Pp
+This function is implemented using
+.Xr nanosleep 2
+by pausing for
+.Fa microseconds
+microseconds or until a signal occurs.
+Consequently, in this implementation,
+sleeping has no effect on the state of process timers,
+and there is no special handling for SIGALRM.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Rv -std usleep
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn usleep
+function
+will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINTR
+A signal was delivered to the process and its
+action was to invoke a signal-catching function.
