Yeah, the code could be simplified now. I'm also still not happy about
the question of whether it's safe to assume tv_sec is signed. I think
the running state should be just finish_time, and then inside the
loop when we are about to wait, we could do
current_time = time(NULL);
if (current_time >= finish_time)
{
// failure exit
}
remains.tv_sec = finish_time - current_time;
remains.tv_usec = 0;
// pass &remains to select...
