- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In time.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn tzset "void"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn tzset
|
|
function uses the value of the environment variable
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
to set time conversion information used by
|
|
.Xr localtime 3 .
|
|
If
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
does not appear in the environment,
|
|
the best available approximation to local wall clock time, as
|
|
specified by the
|
|
.Xr tzfile 5
|
|
format file
|
|
.Pa /etc/localtime
|
|
is used by
|
|
.Xr localtime 3 .
|
|
If
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
appears in the environment but its value is a null string,
|
|
Universal Time (UT) is used, with the abbreviation
|
|
.Dq UTC
|
|
and without leap second correction; please see
|
|
.Xr ctime 3 .
|
|
If
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
appears in the environment and its value is not a null string:
|
|
.Bl -dash
|
|
.It
|
|
if the value begins with a colon, it is used as a pathname of a file
|
|
from which to read the time conversion information;
|
|
.It
|
|
if the value does not begin with a colon, it is first used as the
|
|
pathname of a file from which to read the time conversion information,
|
|
and, if that file cannot be read, is used directly as a specification
|
|
of the time conversion information.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
is used as a pathname, if it begins with a slash, it is used as an
|
|
absolute pathname; otherwise, it is used as a pathname relative to
|
|
.Pa /usr/share/zoneinfo .
|
|
The file must be in the format specified in
|
|
.Xr tzfile 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Ev TZ
|
|
is used directly as a specification of the time conversion information,
|
|
it must have the following syntax (spaces inserted for clarity):
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
.Cm std Cm offset Oo
|
|
.Cm dst Oo
|
|
.Cm offset Oc Oo
|
|
.No , Cm rule Oc Oc
|

.Ed
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Pp
|
|
where:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "std and dst" -compact
|
|
.It Cm std No and Cm dst
|
|
Three or more bytes that are the designation for the standard
|
|
.Cm ( std )
|
|
or summer
|
|
.Cm ( dst )
|
|
time zone.
|
|
Only
|
|
.Cm std
|
|
is required; if
|
|
.Cm dst
|
|
is missing, then summer time does not apply in this locale.
|
|
Upper- and lowercase letters are explicitly allowed.
|
|
Any characters except a leading colon (:), digits, comma (,), minus (-),
|
|
plus (+), and ASCII NUL are allowed.
|
|
.It Cm offset
|
|
Indicates the value one must add to the local time to arrive at
|
|
Coordinated Universal Time.
|
|
The
|
|
.Cm offset
|
|
has the form:
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
.Cm hh Oo
|
|
.Cm :mm Oo
|
|
.Cm :ss Oc Oc
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The minutes
|
|
.Cm ( mm )
|
|
and seconds
|
|
.Cm ( ss )
|
|
are optional.
|
|
The hour
|
|
.Cm ( hh )
|
|
is required and may be a single digit.
|
|
The
|
|
.Cm offset
|
|
following
|
|
.Cm std
|
|
is required.
|
|
If no
|
|
.Cm offset
|
|
follows
|
|
.Cm dst ,
|
|
summer time is assumed to be one hour ahead of standard time.
|
|
One or more digits may be used; the value is always interpreted as a
|
|
decimal number.
|
|
The hour must be between zero and 24, and the minutes (and
|
|
seconds) \(em if present \(em between zero and 59.
|
|
If preceded by a
|
|
.Dq -
|
|
the time zone shall be east of the Prime Meridian; otherwise it shall be
|
|
west (which may be indicated by an optional preceding
|
|
.Dq + ) .
|
|
.It Cm rule
|
|
Indicates when to change to and back from summer time.
|
|
The
|
|
.Cm rule
|
|
has the form:
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
.Xo
|
|
.Cm date No /
|
|
.Cm time No ,
|
|
.Cm date No /
|
|
.Cm time
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Pp
|
|
where the first
|
|
.Cm date
|
|
describes when the change from standard to summer time occurs and the
|
|
second
|
|
.Cm date
|
|
describes when the change back happens.
|
|
Each
|
|
.Cm time
|
|
field describes when, in current local time, the change to the other
|
|
time is made.
|
|
As an extension to POSIX, daylight saving is assumed to be in effect
|
|
all year if it begins January 1 at 00:00 and ends December 31 at
|
|
24:00 plus the difference between daylight saving and standard time,
|
|
leaving no room for standard time in the calendar.
|
|
The format of
|
|
.Fa date
|
|
is one of the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "The Julian day" -compact
|
|
.It Cm J Ns Ar n
|
|
The Julian day
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
(1 \*[Le]
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
\*[Le] 365).
|
|
Leap days are not counted; that is, in all years \(em including leap
|
|
years \(em February 28 is day 59 and March 1 is day 60.
|
|
It is impossible to explicitly refer to the occasional February 29.
|
|
.It Ar n
|
|
The zero-based Julian day (0\ \*[Le]
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
\*[Le]\ 365).
|
|
Leap days are counted, and it is possible to refer to
|
|
February 29.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Cm M Ns Ar m No . Ar n No . Ar d

|
|
.Ar n
|
|
of month
|
|
.Ar m
|
|
of the year
|
|
(1 \*[Le]
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
\*[Le]\ 5, 1 \*[Le]
|
|
.Ar m
|
|
\*[Le]\ 12, where week 5 means
|
|
.Dq the\ last Ar d No day\ in\ month Ar m
|
|
which may occur in either the fourth or the fifth week).
|
|
Week 1 is the first week in which the
|
|
.Ar d Ns 'th
|
|
day occurs.
|
|
Day zero is Sunday.
|
|
.El
|
|
The
|
|
.Cm time
|
|
has the same format as
|
|
.Cm offset
|
|
except that POSIX does not allow a leading sign
|
|
.Dq -
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq +
|
|
is allowed.
|
|
As an extension to POSIX, the hours part of
|
|
.Cm time
|
|
can range from \(mi167 through 167; this allows for unusual rules such as
|
|
.Dq the Saturday before the first Sunday of March .
|
|
The default, if
|
|
.Cm time
|
|
is not given, is
|
|
.Cm 02:00:00 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Here are some examples of
|
|
.Va TZ
|
|
values that directly specify the time zone rules; they use some of the
|
|
extensions to POSIX.
|
|
.Bl -tag

|

stands for US eastern

time (EST), 5 hours behind UTC, without daylight saving.
|
|
.It FJT\(mi12FJST,M10.3.1/146,M1.3.4/75
|
|
stands for Fiji Time (FJT) and Fiji Summer Time (FJST), 12 hours ahead
|
|
of UTC, springing forward on October's third Monday at
|
|
146:00 (i.e., 02:00 on the first Sunday on or after October 21), and
|
|
falling back on January's third Thursday at 75:00 (i.e., 03:00 on the

first Sunday on or after January 18).
|
|
.It IST\(mi2IDT,M3.4.4/26,M10.5.0

2 hours ahead of UTC, springing forward on March's fourth
|
|
Tuesday at 26:00 (i.e., 02:00 on the first Friday on or after March
|
|
23), and falling back on October's last Sunday at 02:00.
|
|
.It WART4WARST,J1/0,J365/25
|
|
stands for Western Argentina Summer Time (WARST), 3 hours behind UTC.
|
|
There is a dummy fall-back transition on December 31 at 25:00 daylight
|
|
saving time (i.e., 24:00 standard time, equivalent to January 1 at
|
|
00:00 standard time), and a simultaneous spring-forward transition on
|
|
January 1 at 00:00 standard time, so daylight saving time is in effect
|
|
all year and the initial
|
|
.Em WART
|
|
is a placeholder.
|
|
.It WGT3WGST,M3.5.0/\(mi2,M10.5.0/\(mi1
|
|
stands for Western Greenland time (WGT) and Western Greenland Summer
|
|
Time (WGST), 3 hours behind UTC, where clocks follow the EU rules of
|
|
springing forward on March's last Sunday at 01:00 UTC (\(mi02:00 local
|
|
time) and falling back on October's last Sunday at 01:00 UTC
|
|
(\(mi01:00 local time).

If the
