/* This library provides generic watchdog timer management functionality.
* The functions operate on a timer queue provided by the caller. Note that
* the timers must use absolute time to allow sorting. The library provides:
*
* tmrs_settimer: (re)set a new watchdog timer in the timers queue
* tmrs_clrtimer: remove a timer from both the timers queue
* tmrs_exptimers: check for expired timers and run watchdog functions
*
* Author:
* Jorrit N. Herder <jnherder@cs.vu.nl>
* Adapted from tmr_settimer and tmr_clrtimer in src/kernel/clock.c.
* Last modified: September 30, 2004.
