/*****
 ***** Module Info
 *****/

/*! \file isc/timer.h
 * \brief Provides timers which are event sources in the task system.
 *
 * Three types of timers are supported:
 *
 *\li	'ticker' timers generate a periodic tick event.
 *
 *\li	'once' timers generate an idle timeout event if they are idle for too
 *	long, and generate a life timeout event if their lifetime expires.
 *	They are used to implement both (possibly expiring) idle timers and
 *	'one-shot' timers.
 *
 *\li	'limited' timers generate a periodic tick event until they reach
 *	their lifetime when they generate a life timeout event.
 *
 *\li	'inactive' timers generate no events.
 *
 * Timers can change type.  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.
