The EvPeriodic class

INTRODUCTION
Periodic watchers are also timers of a kind, but they are very versatile. Unlike EvTimer , EvPeriodic watchers are not based on real time(or relative time, the physical time that passes) but on wall clock time(absolute time, calendar or clock). The difference is that wall clock time can run faster or slower than real time, and time jumps are not uncommon(e.g. when adjusting it). EvPeriodic watcher can be configured to trigger after some specific point in time. For example, if an EvPeriodic watcher is configured to trigger "in 10 seconds" (e.g. EvLoop::now + 10.0 , i.e. an absolute time, not a delay), and the system clock is reset to January of the previous year , then it will take a year or more to trigger the event (unlike an EvTimer , which would still trigger roughly 10 seconds after starting it as it uses a relative timeout). As with timers, the callback is guaranteed to be invoked only when the point in time where it is supposed to trigger has passed. If multi- ple timers become ready during the same loop iteration then the ones with earlier time-out values are invoked before ones with later time- out values (but this is no longer true when a callback calls EvLoop::run recursively).

o $offset - When repeating, this contains the offset value, otherwise this is the absolute point in time(the offset value passed to EvPeri- odic::set , although libev might modify this value for better numerical stability). o $interval - The current interval value. Can be modified any time, but changes only take effect when the periodic timer fires or EvPeri- odic::again is being called. PHP Documentation Group EVPERIODIC(3)

The EvChild class

INTRODUCTION
EvChild watchers trigger when the process receives a SIGCHLD in response to some child status changes (most typically when a child dies or exits). It is permissible to install an EvChild watcher after the child has been forked(which implies it might have already exited), as long as the event loop isn't entered(or is continued from a watcher), i.e. forking and then immediately registering a watcher for the child is fine, but forking and registering a watcher a few event loop iterations later or in the next callback invocation is not. It is allowed to register EvChild watchers in the default loop only. CLASS SYNOPSIS
