The event loop + object is specified in the <parameter>event</parameter> parameter, the event source object is returned in the + <parameter>source</parameter> parameter. The <parameter>clock</parameter> parameter takes a clock identifier, one + of <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>, <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>, <constant>CLOCK_BOOTTIME</constant>, + <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM</constant>, or <constant>CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM</constant>. See + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>timerfd_create</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details + regarding the various types of clocks. The <parameter>usec</parameter> parameter specifies the earliest time, in + microseconds (µs), relative to the clock's epoch, when the timer shall be triggered. If a time already in the past + is specified (including <constant>0</constant>), this timer source "fires" immediately and is ready to be + dispatched. If the parameter is specified as <constant>UINT64_MAX</constant> the timer event will never elapse, + which may be used as an alternative to explicitly disabling a timer event source with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The + <parameter>accuracy</parameter> parameter specifies an additional accuracy value in µs specifying how much the + timer event may be delayed. Use <constant>0</constant> to select the default accuracy (250ms). Use 1µs for maximum + accuracy. Consider specifying 60000000µs (1min) or larger for long-running events that may be delayed + substantially. Picking higher accuracy values allows the system to coalesce timer events more aggressively, + improving power efficiency. The <parameter>handler</parameter> parameter shall reference a function to call when + the timer elapses. The handler function will be passed the <parameter>userdata</parameter> pointer, which may be + chosen freely by the caller. The handler is also passed the configured trigger time, even if it is actually called + slightly later, subject to the specified accuracy value, the kernel timer slack (see + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>prctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>), and additional + scheduling latencies. To query the actual time the handler was called use + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_now</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para> + + <para>By default, the timer will elapse once + (<constant>SD_EVENT_ONESHOT</constant>), but this may be changed + with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. + If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will be + disabled after the invocation, even if the + <constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> mode was requested before. Note + that a timer event set to <constant>SD_EVENT_ON</constant> will + fire continuously unless its configured time is updated using + <function>sd_event_source_set_time()</function>. + </para> + + <para>To destroy an event source object use + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_unref</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, + but note that the event source is only removed from the event loop + when all references to the event source are dropped. To make sure + an event source does not fire anymore, even if it is still referenced, + disable the event source using + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_source_set_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> + with <constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant>.</para> + + <para>If the second parameter of + <function>sd_event_add_time()</function> is + <constant>NULL</constant> no reference to the event source object + is returned.
