Описание (Description)
The ualarm() function causes the signal SIGALRM to be sent to the
invoking process after (not less than) usecs microseconds. The
delay may be lengthened slightly by any system activity or by the
time spent processing the call or by the granularity of system
timers.
Unless caught or ignored, the SIGALRM signal will terminate the
process.
If the interval argument is nonzero, further SIGALRM signals will
be sent every interval microseconds after the first.
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)
This function returns the number of microseconds remaining for
any alarm that was previously set, or 0 if no alarm was pending.
Ошибки (Error)
EINTR Interrupted by a signal; see signal(7).
EINVAL usecs or interval is not smaller than 1000000. (On
systems where that is considered an error.)

Стандарты (Conforming to)
4.3BSD, POSIX.1-2001. POSIX.1-2001 marks ualarm() as obsolete.
POSIX.1-2008 removes the specification of ualarm(). 4.3BSD,
SUSv2, and POSIX do not define any errors.
Примечание (Note)
POSIX.1-2001 does not specify what happens if the usecs argument
is 0. On Linux (and probably most other systems), the effect is
to cancel any pending alarm.
The type useconds_t is an unsigned integer type capable of
holding integers in the range [0,1000000]. On the original BSD
implementation, and in glibc before version 2.1, the arguments to
ualarm() were instead typed as unsigned int. Programs will be
more portable if they never mention useconds_t explicitly.
The interaction of this function with other timer functions such
as alarm(2), sleep(3), nanosleep(2), setitimer(2),
timer_create(2), timer_delete(2), timer_getoverrun(2),
timer_gettime(2), timer_settime(2), usleep(3) is unspecified.
This function is obsolete. Use setitimer(2) or POSIX interval
timers (timer_create(2), etc.) instead.
