/* ptlinux.c -- portable timer implementation for linux */


/* IMPLEMENTATION NOTES (by Mark Nelson): 

Unlike Windows, Linux has no system call to request a periodic callback,
so if Pt_Start() receives a callback parameter, it must create a thread
that wakes up periodically and calls the provided callback function.
If running as superuser, use setpriority() to renice thread to -20.  
One could also set the timer thread to a real-time priority (SCHED_FIFO
and SCHED_RR), but this is dangerous for This is necessary because  
if the callback hangs it'll never return. A more serious reason
is that the current scheduler implementation busy-waits instead 
of sleeping when realtime threads request a sleep of <=2ms (as a way 
to get around the 10ms granularity), which means the thread would never 
let anyone else on the CPU.

CHANGE LOG

18-Jul-03 Roger Dannenberg -- Simplified code to set priority of timer
            thread. Simplified implementation notes.
