7 ** File: pralarm.h
8 ** Description: API to periodic alarms.
9 **
10 **
11 ** Alarms are defined to invoke some client specified function at
12 ** a time in the future. The notification may be a one time event
13 ** or repeated at a fixed interval. The interval at which the next
14 ** notification takes place may be modified by the client code only
15 ** during the respective notification.
16 **
17 ** The notification is delivered on a thread that is part of the
18 ** alarm context (PRAlarm). The thread will inherit the priority
19 ** of the Alarm creator.
20 **
21 ** Any number of periodic alarms (PRAlarmID) may be created within
22 ** the context of a single alarm (PRAlarm). The notifications will be
23 ** scheduled as close to the desired time as possible.
24 **
25 ** Repeating periodic notifies are expected to run at a fixed rate.
26 ** That rate is expressed as some number of notifies per period where
27 ** the period is much larger than a PRIntervalTime (see prinrval.h).

56 ** Create an alarm context.
57 ** INPUTS: void
58 ** OUTPUTS: None
59 ** RETURN: PRAlarm*
60 **
61 ** SIDE EFFECTS:
62 ** This creates an alarm context, which is an object used for subsequent
63 ** notification creations. It also creates a thread that will be used to
64 ** deliver the notifications that are expected to be defined. The client
65 ** is resposible for destroying the context when appropriate.

67 ** None.
68 ** MEMORY: The object (PRAlarm) and a thread to support notifications.

76 ** Destroys the context created by PR_CreateAlarm().
77 ** INPUTS: PRAlarm*
78 ** OUTPUTS: None
79 ** RETURN: PRStatus
80 **
81 ** SIDE EFFECTS:
82 ** This destroys the context that was created by PR_CreateAlarm().
83 ** If there are any active alarms (PRAlarmID), they will be cancelled.
84 ** Once that is done, the thread that was used to deliver the alarms
85 ** will be joined.

94 ** FUNCTION: PR_SetAlarm
95 ** DESCRIPTION:
96 ** Creates a periodic notifier that is to be delivered to a specified
97 ** function at some fixed interval.
98 ** INPUTS: PRAlarm *alarm Parent alarm context
99 ** PRIntervalTime period Interval over which the notifies
100 ** are delivered.
101 ** PRUint32 rate The rate within the interval that
102 ** the notifies will be delivered.
103 ** PRPeriodicAlarmFn function Entry point where the notifies
104 ** will be delivered.
105 ** OUTPUTS: None
106 ** RETURN: PRAlarmID* Handle to the notifier just created
107 ** or NULL if the request failed.
108 **
109 ** SIDE EFFECTS:
110 ** A periodic notifier is created. The notifications will be delivered
111 ** by the alarm's internal thread at a fixed interval whose rate is the
112 ** number of interrupts per interval specified. The first notification
113 ** will be delivered as soon as possible, and they will continue until
114 ** the notifier routine indicates that they should cease of the alarm
115 ** context is destroyed (PR_DestroyAlarm).
116 ** RESTRICTIONS:
117 ** None.
118 ** MEMORY: Memory for the notifier object.
119 ** ALGORITHM: The rate at which notifications are delivered are stated
120 ** to be "'rate' notifies per 'interval'". The exact time of
121 ** the notification is computed based on a epoch established
122 ** when the notifier was set. Each notification is delivered
123 ** not ealier than the epoch plus the fixed rate times the
124 ** notification sequence number. Such notifications have the
125 ** potential to be late by not more than 'interval'/'rate'.
126 ** The amount of lateness of one notification is taken into
127 ** account on the next in an attempt to avoid long term slew.

145 ** SIDE EFFECTS:
146 ** An existing alarm may have its period and rate redefined. The
147 ** additional side effect is that the notifier's epoch is recomputed.
148 ** The first notification delivered by the newly refreshed alarm is
149 ** defined to be 'interval'/'rate' from the time of the reset.
