'man 3p timer_create' says: EINVAL The specified clock ID is not defined. No idea. For an analysis, we need more information: timeout version, OS/kernel version, and finally of course a reproducer, i.e., the exact command line you were using. timeout works well here: $ /usr/bin/time -f '%e' timeout 2.3 sleep 4.5 Command exited with non-zero status 124 2.30 Have a nice day, Berny
