Hi, I’m not sure I understand your proposal.
But looking more at the code I need to port, an interpreter, I think the main issue is that the interpreter relies on sigvtalarm as a way to preempt the interpreted program while allowing the user program to use only sigalarm. So more generally the problem is how can I have two alarms in plan9? I see only one alarm signal in ape, SIGALRM. There is no SIGVTALRM. > On Apr 29, 2015, at 9:47 AM, erik quanstrom <quans...@quanstro.net> wrote: > > On Tue Apr 28 21:30:24 PDT 2015, aryx.pada...@gmail.com wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I’m trying to port some code to plan9 using APE >> but I can’t find the setitimer function in any include/ape/ files. >> What is the equivalent to setitimer under plan9? > > if you're ok on using nsec() as your time source, select(3) as posix would > have it, will do. > > - erik >
