.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_difftimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_difftimeval ()
functions calculates the diffence of
.I minuend
and
.I subtrahend
.RI ( minuend
is subtracted by
.IR subtrahend )
and stores the result in
.IR diff .
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_difftimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_difftimeval ()
functions return 0 on successful completion;
otherwise, \−1 is returned and
.I errno
is set to indicate the error.
.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_difftimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_difftimeval ()
functions fail if:
.TP
.B ERANGE
The result is too large or too small to be stored; if the
result is too large
.I *diff
will be set to
.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MAX,tv_nsec=999999999L}
for the
.BR libsimple_difftimespec ()
function and to
.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MAX,tv_usec=999999L}
for the
.BR libsimple_difftimeval ()
function, if the result is too small
.I *diff
will be set to
.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MIN,tv_nsec=0}
for the
.BR libsimple_difftimespec ()
function and to
.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MIN,tv_usec=0}
for the
.BR libsimple_difftimeval ()
function.
