It is typical to create a timer as * an 'inactive' timer and then change it into a 'ticker' or * 'once' timer. * *\li MP: * The module ensures appropriate synchronization of data structures it * creates and manipulates. * Clients of this module must not be holding a timer's task's lock when * making a call that affects that timer. Failure to follow this rule * can result in deadlock. * The caller must ensure that isc_timermgr_destroy() is called only * once for a given manager. * * \li Reliability: * No anticipated impact. * * \li Resources: * TBS * * \li Security: * No anticipated impact. * * \li Standards: * None. */ /*** *** Imports ***/ #include #include #include #include #include ISC_LANG_BEGINDECLS /*** *** Types ***/ /*% Timer Type */ typedef enum { isc_timertype_ticker = 0, /*%< Ticker */ isc_timertype_once = 1, /*%< Once */ isc_timertype_limited = 2, /*%< Limited */ isc_timertype_inactive = 3 /*%< Inactive */ } isc_timertype_t; typedef struct isc_timerevent { struct isc_event common; isc_time_t due; } isc_timerevent_t; #define ISC_TIMEREVENT_FIRSTEVENT (ISC_EVENTCLASS_TIMER + 0) #define ISC_TIMEREVENT_TICK (ISC_EVENTCLASS_TIMER + 1) #define ISC_TIMEREVENT_IDLE (ISC_EVENTCLASS_TIMER + 2) #define ISC_TIMEREVENT_LIFE (ISC_EVENTCLASS_TIMER + 3) #define ISC_TIMEREVENT_LASTEVENT (ISC_EVENTCLASS_TIMER + 65535) /*** *** Timer and Timer Manager Functions *** *** Note: all Ensures conditions apply only if the result is success for *** those functions which return an isc_result_t. ***/ isc_result_t isc_timer_create(isc_timermgr_t *manager, isc_timertype_t type, isc_time_t *expires, isc_interval_t *interval, isc_task_t *task, isc_taskaction_t action, const void *arg, isc_timer_t **timerp); /*%< * Create a new 'type' timer managed by 'manager'.
