       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The OS

       The _<_u_t_m_p_x_._h_> header shall define the uuttmmppxx structure that shall
       include at least the following members:


           char            ut_user[]  User login name.
           char            ut_id[]    Unspecified initialization process identifier.
           char            ut_line[]  Device name.
           pid_t           ut_pid     Process ID.
           short           ut_type    Type of entry.
           struct timeval  ut_tv      Time entry was made.

       The _<_u_t_m_p_x_._h_> header shall define the ppiidd__tt type through ttyyppeeddeeff, as
       described in _<_s_y_s_/_t_y_p_e_s_._h_>.

       The _<_u_t_m_p_x_._h_> header shall define the ttiimmeevvaall structure as described in
       _<_s_y_s_/_t_i_m_e_._h_>.

       Inclusion of the _<_u_t_m_p_x_._h_> header may also make visible all symbols
       from _<_s_y_s_/_t_i_m_e_._h_>.

       The _<_u_t_m_p_x_._h_> header shall define the following symbolic constants as
       possible values for the _u_t___t_y_p_e member of the uuttmmppxx structure:

       EMPTY         No valid user accounting information.

       BOOT_TIME     Identifies time of system boot.

       OLD_TIME      Identifies time when system clock changed.

       NEW_TIME      Identifies time after system clock changed.

       USER_PROCESS  Identifies a process.

       INIT_PROCESS  Identifies a process spawned by the init process.

       LOGIN_PROCESS Identifies the session leader of a logged-in user.

       DEAD_PROCESS  Identifies a session leader who has exited.

       The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
       macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
