comparison src/timer/unix/SDL_systimer.c @ 5113:481dabb098ef

Improved timer implementation The new timer model is formalized as using a separate thread to handle timer callbacks. This was the case on almost every platform before, but it's now a requirement, and simplifies the implementation and makes it perform consistently across platforms. Goals: * Minimize timer thread blocking * Dispatch timers as accurately as possible * SDL_AddTimer() and SDL_RemoveTimer() are completely threadsafe * SDL_RemoveTimer() doesn't crash with a timer that's expired or removed
