+/*
+ * The ptimer API implements a simple periodic countdown timer.
+ * The countdown timer has a value (which can be read and written via
+ * ptimer_get_count() and ptimer_set_count()). When it is enabled
+ * using ptimer_run(), the value will count downwards at the frequency
+ * which has been configured using ptimer_set_period() or ptimer_set_freq().
+ * When it reaches zero it will trigger a callback function, and
+ * can be set to either reload itself from a specified limit value
+ * and keep counting down, or to stop (as a one-shot timer).
+ *
+ * A transaction-based API is used for modifying ptimer state: all calls
+ * to functions which modify ptimer state must be between matched calls to
+ * ptimer_transaction_begin() and ptimer_transaction_commit().
+ * When ptimer_transaction_commit() is called it will evaluate the state
+ * of the timer after all the changes in the transaction, and call the
+ * callback if necessary. (See the ptimer_init() documentation for the full
+ * list of state-modifying functions and detailed semantics of the callback.)
+ *
+ * Forgetting to set the period/frequency (or setting it to zero) is a
+ * bug in the QEMU device and will cause warning messages to be printed
+ * to stderr when the guest attempts to enable the timer.

+/* The default ptimer policy retains backward compatibility with the legacy
+ * timers. Custom policies are adjusting the default one. Consider providing
+ * a correct policy for your timer.
+ *
+ * The rough edges of the default policy:
+ * - Starting to run with a period = 0 emits error message and stops the
+ * timer without a trigger.
+ *
+ * - Setting period to 0 of the running timer emits error message and
+ * stops the timer without a trigger.
+ *
+ * - Starting to run with counter = 0 or setting it to "0" while timer
+ * is running causes a trigger and reloads counter with a limit value.
+ * If limit = 0, ptimer emits error message and stops the timer.
+ *
+ * - Counter value of the running timer is one less than the actual value.
+ *
+ * - Changing period/frequency of the running timer loses time elapsed
+ * since the last period, effectively restarting the timer with a
+ * counter = counter value at the moment of change (.i.e. one less).
