+/*****
+ ***** 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.

+ * Notes:

+ *\li For ticker timers, the timer will generate a 'tick' event every

+ *
+ *\li For once timers, 'expires' specifies the time when a life timeout
+ * event should be generated. If 'expires' is 0 (the epoch), then no life
+ * timeout will be generated. 'interval' specifies how long the timer
+ * can be idle before it generates an idle timeout. If 0, then no
+ * idle timeout will be generated.

+ *
+ * If 'interval' is NULL, the zero interval will be used.

+ *
+ *\li 'task' is a valid task
