-The

-It is set at boot by
-.Xr inittodr 9 ,
-and is updated by the
-.Xr settimeofday 2
-system call and by periodic clock interrupts.

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
 The
 .Va boottime
-variable holds the system boot time.  It is set from
-.Va time
-at system boot, and is updated when the system time is adjusted
-with
-.Xr settimeofday 2 .
-.Pp
-The
-.Va runtime
-variable holds the time that the system switched to the
-current process.
-It is set after each context switch,
-and is updated when the system time is adjusted with
-.Xr settimeofday 2 .
-Because
-.Va runtime
-is used for system accounting, it is set with the high-resolution
-.Xr microtime 9
-function, rather than being copied from
-.Va time .
-.Pp
+variable holds the system boot time.
 The
-.Va mono_time
-variable is a monotonically increasing system clock.  It is set
-from
-.Va time
-at boot, and is updated by the periodic timer interrupt.  (It is
-not updated by
-.Xr settimeofday 2 . )
-.Pp
-All of these variables contain times
-expressed in seconds and microseconds since midnight (0 hour),
-January 1, 1970.
+.Va time_second
+variable is the system's
+.Dq wall time
+clock to the second.
 .Pp
-Clock interrupts should be blocked
-when reading or writing
-.Va time
-or
-.Va mono_time ,
-because those variables are updated by
-.Fn hardclock .
-The
-.Xr gettime 9
-function can be used to read the
-.Va time
-variable in an atomic manner.  There is no equivalent
-function for accessing
-.Va mono_time .
 The
-.Va boottime
+.Xr microtime 9 ,
+.Xr getmicrotime 9 ,
+.Xr nanotime 9 ,
 and
-.Va runtime
-variables may be read and written without special precautions.
-.Pp
-It should be noted that due to the differences in how the time values
-returned by
-.Xr gettime 9
+.Xr getnanotime 9
+functions can be used to get the current time in an atomic manner.
+Similarly, the
+.Xr microuptime 9 ,
+.Xr getmicrouptime 9 ,
+.Xr nanouptime 9 ,
 and
-.Xr microtime 9
-are updated, comparing the results of the two routines
-may result in a time value that appears to go backwards.
-This can be avoided by consistently using one function or the other
-for use in any given context.
+.Xr getnanouptime 9
+functions can be used to get the time elapsed since boot in an atomic manner.
+The
+.Va boottime
+variable may be read and written without special precautions.

-The notion of having a single
