    NAME

    time - time a simple command
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    time [-p] utility [argument...]  

    DESCRIPTION

    The time utility shall invoke the utility named by the utility operand with arguments supplied as the argument operands and write a message to standard error that lists timing statistics for the utility. The message shall include the following information:

    The elapsed (real) time between invocation of utility and its termination.

    The User CPU time, equivalent to the sum of the tms_utime and tms_cutime fields returned by the times() function defined in the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 for the process in which utility is executed.

    The System CPU time, equivalent to the sum of the tms_stime and tms_cstime fields returned by the times() function for the process in which utility is executed.

    The precision of the timing shall be no less than the granularity defined for the size of the clock tick unit on the system, but the results shall be reported in terms of standard time units (for example, 0.02 seconds, 00:00:00.02, 1m33.75s, 365.21 seconds), not numbers of clock ticks.

    When time is used as part of a pipeline, the times reported are unspecified, except when it is the sole command within a grouping command (see Grouping Commands ) in that pipeline. For example, the commands on the left are unspecified; those on the right report on utilities a and c, respectively:

    
    time a | b | c    { time a } | b | c
    a | b | time c    a | b | (time c)
    
    
     

    OPTIONS

    The time utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.

    The following option shall be supported:

    -p
    Write the timing output to standard error in the format shown in the STDERR section.

     

    OPERANDS

    The following operands shall be supported:

    utility
    The name of a utility that is to be invoked. If the utility operand names any of the special built-in utilities in Special Built-In Utilities , the results are undefined.
    argument
    Any string to be supplied as an argument when invoking the utility named by the utility operand.

     

    STDIN

    Not used.  

    INPUT FILES

    None.  

    ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

    The following environment variables shall affect the execution of time:

    LANG
    Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables for the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine the values of locale categories.)
    LC_ALL
    If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalization variables.
    LC_CTYPE
    Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments).
    LC_MESSAGES
    Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic and informative messages written to standard error.
    LC_NUMERIC

    Determine the locale for numeric formatting.

    NLSPATH
    Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of LC_MESSAGES .
    PATH
    Determine the search path that shall be used to locate the utility to be invoked; see the Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 8, Environment Variables.

     

    ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS

    Default.  

    STDOUT

    Not used.  

    STDERR

    The standard error shall be used to write the timing statistics. If -p is specified, the following format shall be used in the POSIX locale:

    
    "real %f\nuser %f\nsys %f\n", <real seconds>, <user seconds>,
        <system seconds>
    
    

    where each floating-point number shall be expressed in seconds. The precision used may be less than the default six digits of %f , but shall be sufficiently precise to accommodate the size of the clock tick on the system (for example, if there were 60 clock ticks per second, at least two digits shall follow the radix character). The number of digits following the radix character shall be no less than one, even if this always results in a trailing zero. The implementation may append white space and additional information following the format shown here.  

    OUTPUT FILES

    None.  

    EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

    None.  

    EXIT STATUS

    If the utility utility is invoked, the exit status of time shall be the exit status of utility; otherwise, the time utility shall exit with one of the following values:

    1-125
    An error occurred in the time utility.
      126
    The utility specified by utility was found but could not be invoked.
      127
    The utility specified by utility could not be found.

     

    CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS

    Default.

    The following sections are informative.  

    APPLICATION USAGE

    The command, env, nice, nohup, time, and xargs utilities have been specified to use exit code 127 if an error occurs so that applications can distinguish "failure to find a utility" from "invoked utility exited with an error indication". The value 127 was chosen because it is not commonly used for other meanings; most utilities use small values for "normal error conditions" and the values above 128 can be confused with termination due to receipt of a signal. The value 126 was chosen in a similar manner to indicate that the utility could be found, but not invoked. Some scripts produce meaningful error messages differentiating the 126 and 127 cases. The distinction between exit codes 126 and 127 is based on KornShell practice that uses 127 when all attempts to exec the utility fail with [ENOENT], and uses 126 when any attempt to exec the utility fails for any other reason.  

    EXAMPLES

    It is frequently desirable to apply time to pipelines or lists of commands. This can be done by placing pipelines and command lists in a single file; this file can then be invoked as a utility, and the time applies to everything in the file.

    Alternatively, the following command can be used to apply time to a complex command:

    
    time sh -c 'complex-command-line'
    
    
     

    RATIONALE

    When the time utility was originally proposed to be included in the ISO POSIX-2:1993 standard, questions were raised about its suitability for inclusion on the grounds that it was not useful for conforming applications, specifically:

    The underlying CPU definitions from the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 are vague, so the numeric output could not be compared accurately between systems or even between invocations.

    The creation of portable benchmark programs was outside the scope this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.

    However, time does fit in the scope of user portability. Human judgement can be applied to the analysis of the output, and it could be very useful in hands-on debugging of applications or in providing subjective measures of system performance. Hence it has been included in this volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001.

    The default output format has been left unspecified because historical implementations differ greatly in their style of depicting this numeric output. The -p option was invented to provide scripts with a common means of obtaining this information.

    In the KornShell, time is a shell reserved word that can be used to time an entire pipeline, rather than just a simple command. The POSIX definition has been worded to allow this implementation. Consideration was given to invalidating this approach because of the historical model from the C shell and System V shell. However, since the System V time utility historically has not produced accurate results in pipeline timing (because the constituent processes are not all owned by the same parent process, as allowed by POSIX), it did not seem worthwhile to break historical KornShell usage.

    The term utility is used, rather than command, to highlight the fact that shell compound commands, pipelines, special built-ins, and so on, cannot be used directly. However, utility includes user application programs and shell scripts, not just the standard utilities.  

    FUTURE DIRECTIONS

    None.
