timers: helpers for forking separate timer procs
Helper functions for forking simple separate timer processes:
fork_dummy_timer(...) - forks a process that will just sleep() for the required interval and then will call the provided timer function, all that in a loop. Care must be taken to use it only when fork_process() is allowed (e.g.: module child_init function, when rank==PROC_MAIN; see doc/modules_init.txt for more details) It can be used to replace kamailio register_timer_process() (but note that it's not a "drop-in" replacement).
fork_local_timer_process() - forks a process, initializes a local_timer for it, and returns the local_timer handler both to the parent and to the child process, so both of them can add/del timers (if appropriate locking is used). Example usage: struct local_timer* lt_h;
pid=fork_local_timer_process(...., <_h); if (pid==0){ timer_init(&my_timer1, my_timer_f1, 0, 0); ... local_timer_add(<_h, &my_timer, S_TO_TICKS(10), get_ticks_raw()); ... while(1) { sleep(1); local_timer_run(lt, get_ticks_raw()); } } (note that instead of sleep()-ing the process can do some useful work, like polling some fds a.s.o.)
