CAVEAT

       This documentation is intended for internal Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) developer use.

       These  interfaces  are  not part of the PCP APIs that are guaranteed to remain fixed across releases, and
       they may not work, or may provide different semantics at some point in the future.

DESCRIPTION

       __pmMktime is very similar to mktime(3), except the timezone used is the current  ``reporting  timezone''
       (rather than the default TZ environment variable scheme).

       Like  mktime(3)  the  time  to  be  converted is passed via timeptr, and the function result contains the
       calendar time (the number of seconds since 00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970).

       The default current reporting timezone is as defined by the TZ environment variable,  so  __pmMktime  and
       mktime(3) will initially produce similar conversions.

       Use  pmNewZone(3), pmNewContextZone(3) or pmUseZone(3) to establish a new current reporting timezone that
       will effect __pmMktime but not mktime(3).
