(1) struct--timeval
--------------------------------------------------
struct timeval {
time_t tv_sec; /* seconds */
suseconds_t tv_usec; /* microseconds */
};
millisecond 毫秒
microsecond 微秒

timeval表示一个时间点，比如:
timeval.tv_sec = 1 (s)
timevat.tv_usec = 500 000 (μs)
1:500 = 1s500000μs = 1.5s

(2) gettimeofday()
--------------------------------------------------
int gettimeofday(struct timeval *tv, struct timezone *tz);

The functions gettimeofday() and settimeofday() can get and set the time as well as a timezone.
The use of the timezone structure is obsolete; the tz argument should normally be specified as NULL.

(3) 运行结果:
--------------------------------------------------
time 1181788367:991487
time 1181788369:991602

表示睡眠2秒经过的精确时间为： 2s115μs
