POSIX 2008 says this about clock_settime(2):
If the value of the CLOCK_REALTIME clock is set via clock_settime(),
the new value of the clock shall be used to determine the time
of expiration for absolute time services based upon the
CLOCK_REALTIME clock. This applies to the time at which armed
absolute timers expire. If the absolute time requested at the
invocation of such a time service is before the new value of
the clock, the time service shall expire immediately as if the
clock had reached the requested time normally.
Setting the value of the CLOCK_REALTIME clock via clock_settime()
shall have no effect on threads that are blocked waiting for
a relative time service based upon this clock, including the
nanosleep() function; nor on the expiration of relative timers
based upon this clock. Consequently, these time services shall
expire when the requested relative interval elapses, independently
of the new or old value of the clock.
When the real-time clock is adjusted, such as by clock_settime(3),
wake any threads sleeping until an absolute real-clock time.
Such a sleep is indicated by a non-zero td_rtcgen. The sleep functions
will set that field to zero and return zero to tell the caller
to reevaluate its sleep duration based on the new value of the clock.
At present, this affects the following functions:
pthread_cond_timedwait(3)
pthread_mutex_timedlock(3)
pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock(3)
pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock(3)
sem_timedwait(3)
sem_clockwait_np(3)
I'm working on adding clock_nanosleep(2), which will also be affected.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information).
The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
The buildkernel and installkernel targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel and installkernel targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the handbook.
The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds.
