/* NAME
/*	watchdog 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	watchdog timer
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <watchdog.h>
/*
/*	WATCHDOG *watchdog_create(timeout, action, context)
/*	unsigned timeout;
/*	void	(*action)(WATCHDOG *watchdog, char *context);
/*	char	*context;
/*
/*	void	watchdog_start(watchdog)
/*	WATCHDOG *watchdog;
/*
/*	void	watchdog_stop(watchdog)
/*	WATCHDOG *watchdog;
/*
/*	void	watchdog_destroy(watchdog)
/*	WATCHDOG *watchdog;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	This module implements watchdog timers that are based on ugly
/*	UNIX alarm timers. The module is designed to survive systems
/*	with clocks that jump occasionally.
/*
/*	Watchdog timers can be stacked. Only one watchdog timer can be
/*	active at a time. Only the last created watchdog timer can be
/*	manipulated. Watchdog timers must be destroyed in reverse order
/*	of creation.
/*
/*	watchdog_create() suspends the current watchdog timer, if any,
/*	and instantiates a new watchdog timer.
/*
/*	watchdog_start() starts or restarts the watchdog timer.
/*
/*	watchdog_stop() stops the watchdog timer.
/*
/*	watchdog_destroy() stops the watchdog timer, and resumes the
/*	watchdog timer instance that was suspended by watchdog_create().
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP timeout
/*	The watchdog time limit. When the watchdog timer runs, the
/*	process must invoke watchdog_start(), watchdog_stop() or
/*	watchdog_destroy() before the time limit is reached.
/* .IP action
/*	A null pointer, or pointer to function that is called when the
/*	watchdog alarm goes off. The default action is to terminate
/*	the process with a fatal error.
/* .IP context
/*	Application context that is passed to the action routine.
/* .IP watchdog
/*	Must be a pointer to the most recently created watchdog instance.
/*	This argument is checked upon each call.
/* BUGS
/*	UNIX alarm timers are not stackable, so there can be at most one
/*	watchdog instance active at any given time.
/* SEE ALSO
/*	msg(3) diagnostics interface
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Fatal errors: memory allocation problem, system call failure.
/*	Panics: interface violations.
