NAME
    TR_GETSYSTIME -- get the system time.

FUNCTION
    Ask the system what time it is.  The system time starts off at
    zero at power on, but may be initialized via the tr_setsystime
    call.

    System time is monotonically increasing, and guaranteed to be
    unique (except when the system time is set backwards).

    io_Device       preset by timer in opendevice
    io_Unit         preset by timer in opendevice
    io_Command      TR_GETSYSTIME
    io_Flags        IOF_QUICK permitted

RESULTS
    tr_time         a timeval structure with the current system
                        time

NOTES
    This function may be called from interrupts.
