/*
 * eventhandler.h: Handle registration of event handlers
 *
 * This is a facility in the NT server to provide a way to register event
 * handling functions. Often there is a need to send a control signal of some
 * kind to the server. This could be a signal for the server to rotate its
 * logs, or a signal to collect and return statistical information of some kind
 * such as perfmon stats.
 * 
 * This file specifies the structures and functions necessary to set up this
 * kind of asynchronous special event handling.
