* configure.ac (HAVE_TIMERFD): Define only if TFD_CLOEXEC works,
since the code leaked file descriptors to children when !TFD_CLOEXEC.
(HAVE_TIMERFD_CLOEXEC): Remove; no longer used.
* m4/clock_time.m4 (gl_CLOCK_TIME): Don't check for clock_getres.
This reverts the previous change to this file, so it matches
gnulib again.
* src/atimer.c (TIMERFD_CREATE_FLAGS): Remove; we now assume TFD_CLOEXEC.
(alarm_timer, alarm_timer_ok, set_alarm, init_atimer):
Fall back on timer_create if timerfd_create fails at runtime.
(resolution) [HAVE_CLOCK_GETRES]: Remove; we now rely on the
kernel primitives to do resolution. All uses removed.
(timerfd) [!HAVE_TIMERFD]: Define to be -1, for convenience.
(turn_on_atimers): Clear timer_create-based timers too,
for consistency.
* configure.ac (toplevel): Check whether GNU/Linux-specific
timerfd functions and macros are available.
* m4/clock_time.m4 (gl_CLOCK_TIME): Check for clock_getres as well.
* src/atimer.c (toplevel) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: Include sys/timerfd.h.
(toplevel): Rename alarm_timer_ok to special_timer_available.
[HAVE_TIMERFD]: Declare timerfd.
[HAVE_CLOCK_GETRES]: Declare resolution.
(start_atimer) [HAVE_CLOCK_GETRES]: Round up timestamp to
system timer resolution.
(set_alarm) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: Use timerfd_settime.
(timerfd_callback) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: New function.
(atimer_result, debug_timer_callback, Fdebug_timer_check)
[ENABLE_CHECKING]: New function for the sake of automated tests.
(init_atimer) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: Setup timerfd.
[HAVE_CLOCK_GETRES]: Likewise for system timer resolution.
[ENABLE_CHECKING]: Defsubr test function.
* src/atimer.h (timerfd_callback) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: Add prototype.
* src/lisp.h (add_timer_wait_descriptor) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: Likewise.
* src/process.c (add_timer_wait_descriptor) [HAVE_TIMERFD]: New function.
* test/automated/timer-tests.el (timer-tests-debug-timer-check): New test.
