//! Timer API via file descriptors.
//!
//! Timer FD is a Linux-only API to create timers and get expiration
//! notifications through file descriptors.
//!
//! For more documentation, please read [timerfd_create(2)](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/timerfd_create.2.html).
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Create a new one-shot timer that expires after 1 second.
//! ```
//! # use std::os::unix::io::AsRawFd;
//! # use nix::sys::timerfd::{TimerFd, ClockId, TimerFlags, TimerSetTimeFlags,
//! #    Expiration};
//! # use nix::sys::time::{TimeSpec, TimeValLike};
//! # use nix::unistd::read;
//! #
//! // We create a new monotonic timer.
//! let timer = TimerFd::new(ClockId::CLOCK_MONOTONIC, TimerFlags::empty())
//!     .unwrap();
//!
//! // We set a new one-shot timer in 1 seconds.
//! timer.set(
//!     Expiration::OneShot(TimeSpec::seconds(1)),
//!     TimerSetTimeFlags::empty()
//! ).unwrap();
//!
//! // We wait for the timer to expire.
//! timer.wait().unwrap();
//! ```
