The buffer of type <code>struct timeval</code> used by the File-I/O protocol
is defined as follows:
<pre class="smallexample"> struct timeval {
time_t tv_sec; /* second */
long tv_usec; /* microsecond */
};
</pre>
<p>The integral datatypes conform to the definitions given in the
appropriate section (see <a href="Integral-Datatypes.html#Integral-Datatypes">Integral Datatypes</a>, for details) so this
structure is of size 8 bytes.
