+** File:		pralarm.h
+** Description:	API to periodic alarms.
+**
+**
+** Alarms are defined to invoke some client specified function at 
+** a time in the future. The notification may be a one time event
+** or repeated at a fixed interval. The interval at which the next
+** notification takes place may be modified by the client code only
+** during the respective notification.
+**
+** The notification is delivered on a thread that is part of the
+** alarm context (PRAlarm). The thread will inherit the priority
+** of the Alarm creator.
+**
+** Any number of periodic alarms (PRAlarmID) may be created within
+** the context of a single alarm (PRAlarm). The notifications will be
+** scheduled as close to the desired time as possible.
+**
+** Repeating periodic notifies are expected to run at a fixed rate.
+** That rate is expressed as some number of notifies per period where
+** the period is much larger than a PRIntervalTime (see prinrval.h).

+** DESCRIPTION:
+**  Creates a periodic notifier that is to be delivered to a specified
+**  function at some fixed interval.
+** INPUTS:      PRAlarm *alarm              Parent alarm context
+**              PRIntervalTime period       Interval over which the notifies
+**                                          are delivered.
+**              PRUint32 rate               The rate within the interval that
+**                                          the notifies will be delivered.
+**              PRPeriodicAlarmFn function  Entry point where the notifies
+**                                          will be delivered.
+** OUTPUTS:     None
+** RETURN:      PRAlarmID*                  Handle to the notifier just created
+**                                          or NULL if the request failed.
+**  
+** SIDE EFFECTS:
+**  A periodic notifier is created. The notifications will be delivered
+**  by the alarm's internal thread at a fixed interval whose rate is the
+**  number of interrupts per interval specified. The first notification
+**  will be delivered as soon as possible, and they will continue until
+**  the notifier routine indicates that they should cease of the alarm
+**  context is destroyed (PR_DestroyAlarm).
+** RESTRICTIONS:
+**  None. 
+** MEMORY:      Memory for the notifier object.
+** ALGORITHM:   The rate at which notifications are delivered are stated
+**              to be "'rate' notifies per 'interval'". The exact time of
+**              the notification is computed based on a epoch established
+**              when the notifier was set. Each notification is delivered
+**              not ealier than the epoch plus the fixed rate times the
+**              notification sequence number. Such notifications have the
+**              potential to be late by not more than 'interval'/'rate'.
+**              The amount of lateness of one notification is taken into
+**              account on the next in an attempt to avoid long term slew.

+** FUNCTION:    PR_ResetAlarm
+** DESCRIPTION:
+**  Resets an existing alarm.
+** INPUTS:      PRAlarmID *id               Identify of the notifier.
+**              PRIntervalTime period       Interval over which the notifies

+** SIDE EFFECTS:

+**  additional side effect is that the notifier's epoch is recomputed.
