Macros
#define	NET_TIME_MAX   INT64_MAX
	The largest positive time value that can be represented by net_time_t.
#define	NET_TIME_MIN   INT64_MIN
	The smallest negative time value that can be represented by net_time_t.
#define	NET_TIME_SEC_MAX   (NET_TIME_MAX / NSEC_PER_SEC)
	The largest positive number of seconds that can be safely represented by net_time_t.
#define	NET_TIME_SEC_MIN   (NET_TIME_MIN / NSEC_PER_SEC)
	The smallest negative number of seconds that can be safely represented by net_time_t.

Typedefs
typedef int64_t	net_time_t
	Any occurrence of net_time_t specifies a concept of nanosecond resolution scalar time span, future (positive) or past (negative) relative time or absolute timestamp referred to some local network uptime reference clock that does not wrap during uptime and is - in a certain, well-defined sense - common to all local network interfaces, sometimes even to remote interfaces on the same network.
