event source to an event loop object. The event loop is specified
in <em class="parameter"><code>event</code></em>, the event source is returned in
the <em class="parameter"><code>source</code></em> parameter. The
<em class="parameter"><code>clock</code></em> parameter takes a clock identifier,
one of <code class="constant">CLOCK_REALTIME</code>,
<code class="constant">CLOCK_MONOTONIC</code> and
<code class="constant">CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM</code>. See
<a href="http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/timerfd_create.2.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">timerfd_create</span>(2)</span></a>
for details regarding the various types of clocks. The
<em class="parameter"><code>usec</code></em> parameter takes a time value in
microseconds, relative to the clock's epoch specifying when the
timer shall elapse the earliest. The
<em class="parameter"><code>accuracy</code></em> parameter takes an additional
accuracy value in microseconds specifying a time the timer event
may be delayed. Specify 0 for selecting the default accuracy
(250ms). Specify 1 for most accurate timers. Consider specifying
60000000 or larger (1h) for long-running events that may be
delayed substantially. Picking higher accuracy values allows the
system to coalesce timer events more aggressively, thus improving
power efficiency. The <em class="parameter"><code>handler</code></em> shall
reference a function to call when the timer elapses. The handler
function will be passed the <em class="parameter"><code>userdata</code></em>
pointer, which may be chosen freely by the caller. The handler is
also passed the configured time it was triggered, however it might
actually have been called at a slightly later time, subject to the
specified accuracy value, the kernel timer slack (see
<a href="http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/prctl.2.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">prctl</span>(2)</span></a>)
and additional scheduling latencies.</p><p>By default, the timer will elapse once
(<code class="constant">SD_EVENT_ONESHOT</code>), but this may be changed
with
<a href="sd_event_source_set_enabled.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">sd_event_source_set_enabled</span>(3)</span></a>.
If the handler function returns a negative error code, it will be
disabled after the invocation, even if
<code class="constant">SD_EVENT_ON</code> mode is set.
</p><p><code class="function">sd_event_source_get_time()</code> retrieves
the configured time value of a timer event source created
previously with <code class="function">sd_event_add_time()</code>. It takes

time in microseconds in.</p><p><code class="function">sd_event_source_set_time()</code> changes the
