UALARM(3)                  Linux Programmer's Manual                 UALARM(3)



NAME
       ualarm - schedule signal after given number of microseconds

SYNOPSIS
       #include <unistd.h>

       useconds_t ualarm(useconds_t usecs, useconds_t interval);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       ualarm():
           Since glibc 2.12:
               (_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500) && ! (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L)
                   || /* Glibc since 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
                   || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE
           Before glibc 2.12:
               _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500

DESCRIPTION
       The  ualarm()  function  causes  the  signal  SIGALRM to be sent to the
       invoking process after (not less than) usecs microseconds.   The  delay
       may  be lengthened slightly by any system activity or by the time spent
       processing the call or by the granularity of system timers.

       Unless caught  or  ignored,  the  SIGALRM  signal  will  terminate  the
       process.

       If  the  interval  argument is nonzero, further SIGALRM signals will be
       sent every interval microseconds after the first.

RETURN VALUE
       This function returns the number  of  microseconds  remaining  for  any
       alarm that was previously set, or 0 if no alarm was pending.

ERRORS
       EINTR  Interrupted by a signal; see signal(7).

       EINVAL usecs  or  interval  is  not  smaller than 1000000.  (On systems
              where that is considered an error.)

CONFORMING TO
       4.3BSD,  POSIX.1-2001.   POSIX.1-2001  marks  ualarm()   as   obsolete.
       POSIX.1-2008 removes the specification of ualarm().  4.3BSD, SUSv2, and
       POSIX do not define any errors.

NOTES
       POSIX.1-2001 does not specify what happens if the usecs argument is  0.
       On Linux (and probably most other systems), the effect is to cancel any
       pending alarm.

       The type useconds_t is an unsigned  integer  type  capable  of  holding
       integers in the range [0,1000000].  On the original BSD implementation,
       and in glibc before version 2.1, the arguments to ualarm() were instead
       typed  as  unsigned  int.  Programs will be more portable if they never
       mention useconds_t explicitly.

       The interaction of this function with other  timer  functions  such  as
       alarm(2),   sleep(3),   nanosleep(2),   setitimer(2),  timer_create(2),
       timer_delete(2),  timer_getoverrun(2),   timer_gettime(2),   timer_set‐
       time(2), usleep(3) is unspecified.

       This  function  is obsolete.  Use setitimer(2) or POSIX interval timers
       (timer_create(2), etc.)  instead.

SEE ALSO
       alarm(2),   getitimer(2),   nanosleep(2),   select(2),    setitimer(2),
       usleep(3), time(7)
