- For each timestamp T, this code assumes that either:
-
- * T.tv_nsec is in the range 0..999999999; or
- * T.tv_sec corresponds to a valid leap second on a host that supports
- leap seconds, and T.tv_nsec is in the range 1000000000..1999999999; or
- * T.tv_sec is the minimum time_t value and T.tv_nsec is -1; or
- T.tv_sec is the maximum time_t value and T.tv_nsec is 2000000000.
- This allows for special struct timespec values that are less or
- greater than all possible valid timestamps.
-
- In all these cases, it is safe to subtract two tv_nsec values and
- convert the result to integer without worrying about overflow on
- any platform of interest to the GNU project, since all such
- platforms have 32-bit int or wider.
-
- Replacing "a.tv_nsec - b.tv_nsec" with something like
- "a.tv_nsec < b.tv_nsec ? -1 : a.tv_nsec > b.tv_nsec" would cause
- this function to work in some cases where the above assumption is
- violated, but not in all cases (e.g., a.tv_sec==1, a.tv_nsec==-2,
- b.tv_sec==0, b.tv_nsec==999999999) and is arguably not worth the
- extra instructions. Using a subtraction has the advantage of
- detecting some invalid cases on platforms that detect integer
- overflow. */
