/*

* alarm_mutex.c
|
||||
*
|
||||
* This is an enhancement to the alarm_thread.c program, which
|
||||
* created an "alarm thread" for each alarm command. This new
|
||||
* version uses a single alarm thread, which reads the next
|
||||
* entry in a list. The main thread places new requests onto the
|
||||
* list, in order of absolute expiration time. The list is
|
||||
* protected by a mutex, and the alarm thread sleeps for at
|
||||
* least 1 second, each iteration, to ensure that the main
|
||||
* thread can lock the mutex to add new work to the list.
