winedos / Make timers work without SIGALRM

Jukka Heinonen jhei at iki.fi
Fri Jun 6 16:55:18 CDT 2003


This patch removes SIGALRM use from DOS timer emulation.
Reason for this is that both ntdll and winedos get simpler
and it is quite a lot easier to add DPMI IRQ support later
after this change. Also, at least under Linux 2.4,
timer resolution should improve significantly even though
jitter in individual timer events will be increased. This
is due to signals using jiffy boundaries while Win32 timers
use gettimeofday/poll loop. Using different Win32 primitives
it should be possible to further improve resolution and reduce
jitter.

Patch for removing SIGALRM handling from ntdll and for
replacing _TEB.alarms with _TEB.dpmi_vif (needed by DPMI
IRQ stuff) will follow if this patch gets applied.




Changelog:
    Split timer code into separate source file.
    Stop using SIGALRM for timers.
