Input

timetm
A tm structure that expresses GMT. On input, tm_wday and tm_yday are ignored; the value of tm_isdt should be 1.

tns
Nanoseconds since the Time component.

inacctm
A tm structure that expresses days, hours, minutes, and seconds of inaccuracy. If a null pointer is passed, or if tm_yday is negative, the inaccuracy is considered to be unspecified. On input, tm_mday, tm_mon, tm_wday, and tm_isdst are ignored.

ins
Nanoseconds of the inaccuracy component.

Output

utc
Resulting binary timestamp.
