+ * 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.
