SLEEP(3)            Linux Programmer's Manual            SLEEP(3)
+

+
+
NAME
+
       sleep - Sleep for the specified number of seconds
+
+
SYNOPSIS
+
       #include <unistd.h>
+
+       unsigned int sleep(unsigned int seconds);
+
+
DESCRIPTION
+
       sleep() makes the current process sleep until seconds sec-
+       onds have  elapsed  or  a  signal  arrives  which  is  not
+       ignored.
+
+
RETURN VALUE
+
       Zero  if  the requested time has elapsed, or the number of
+       seconds left to sleep.
+
+
CONFORMS TO
+
       POSIX.1
+
+
BUGS
+
       sleep() may be implemented using SIGALRM; mixing calls  to
+       alarm() and sleep() is a bad idea.
+
+       Using  longjmp()  from  a  signal handler or modifying the
+       handling of SIGALRM while sleeping  will  cause  undefined
+       results.
