/*
 * timespecops.h -- calculations on 'struct timespec' values
 *
 * Written by Juergen Perlinger (perlinger@ntp.org) for the NTP project.
 * The contents of 'html/copyright.html' apply.
 *
 * Rationale
 * ---------
 *
 * Doing basic arithmetic on a 'struct timespec' is not exceedingly
 * hard, but it requires tedious and repetitive code to keep the result
 * normalised. We consider a timespec normalised when the nanosecond
 * fraction is in the interval [0 .. 10^9[ ; there are multiple value
 * pairs of seconds and nanoseconds that denote the same time interval,
 * but the normalised representation is unique. No two different
 * intervals can have the same normalised representation.
 *
 * Another topic is the representation of negative time intervals.
 * There's more than one way to this, since both the seconds and the
 * nanoseconds of a timespec are signed values. IMHO, the easiest way is
 * to use a complement representation where the nanoseconds are still
 * normalised, no matter what the sign of the seconds value. This makes
 * normalisation easier, since the sign of the integer part is
 * irrelevant, and it removes several sign decision cases during the
 * calculations.
 *
 * As long as no signed integer overflow can occur with the nanosecond
 * part of the operands, all operations work as expected and produce a
 * normalised result.
 *
 * The exception to this are functions fix a '_fast' suffix, which do no
 * normalisation on input data and therefore expect the input data to be
 * normalised.
 *
 * Input and output operands may overlap; all input is consumed before
 * the output is written to.
