.TH UNTIMEOUT 9F "Feb 12, 2014"
.SH NAME
untimeout \- cancel previous timeout function call
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/conf.h>



\fBclock_t\fR \fBuntimeout\fR(\fBtimeout_id_t\fR \fIid\fR);
.fi

.SH INTERFACE LEVEL
.sp
.LP
Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).
.SH PARAMETERS
.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIid\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 6n
Opaque timeout \fBID\fR from a previous \fBtimeout\fR(9F) call.
.RE

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBuntimeout()\fR function cancels a pending \fBtimeout\fR(9F) request.
\fBuntimeout()\fR will not return until the pending callback is cancelled or
has run. Because of this, locks acquired by the callback routine must not be
held across the call to \fBuntimeout()\fR or a deadlock may result.
.sp
.LP
Since no mutex should be held across the call to \fBuntimeout()\fR, there is a
race condition between the occurrence of an expected event and the execution of
the timeout handler. In particular, it should be noted that no problems will
result from calling \fBuntimeout()\fR for a timeout which is either running on
another CPU, or has already completed. Drivers should be structured with the
understanding that the arrival of both an interrupt and a timeout for that
interrupt can occasionally occur, in either order.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
The \fBuntimeout()\fR function returns \fB-1\fR if the \fIid\fR is not found.
Otherwise, it returns an integer value greater than or equal to \fB0\fR.
.SH CONTEXT
.sp
.LP
The \fBuntimeout()\fR function can be called from user, interrupt, or kernel
context.
.SH EXAMPLES
.sp
.LP
In the following example, the device driver has issued an IO request and is
waiting for the device to respond. If the device does not respond within 5
seconds, the device driver will print out an error message to the console.
