+/**
+ * @file
+ RTE Timer
+ *
+ * This library provides a timer service to RTE Data Plane execution
+ * units that allows the execution of callback functions asynchronously.
+ *
+ * - Timers can be periodic or single (one-shot).
+ * - The timers can be loaded from one core and executed on another. This has
+ *   to be specified in the call to rte_timer_reset().
+ * - High precision is possible. NOTE: this depends on the call frequency to
+ *   rte_timer_manage() that check the timer expiration for the local core.
+ * - If not used in an application, for improved performance, it can be
+ *   disabled at compilation time by not calling the rte_timer_manage()
+ *   to improve performance.
+ *
+ * The timer library uses the rte_get_hpet_cycles() function that
+ * uses the HPET, when available, to provide a reliable time reference. [HPET
+ * routines are provided by EAL, which falls back to using the chip TSC (time-
+ * stamp counter) as fallback when HPET is not available]
+ *
+ * This library provides an interface to add, delete and restart a
+ * timer. The API is based on the BSD callout(9) API with a few
+ * differences.
+ *
+ * See the RTE architecture documentation for more information about the
+ * design of this library.
