Davide, A further question: what is the expected behavior in the following scenario:
1. Create a timerfd and arm it. 2. Wait until M timer expirations have occurred 3. Modify the settings of the timer 4. Wait for N further timer expirations have occurred 5. read() from the timerfd Does the buffer returned by the read() contain the value N or (M+N)? In other words, should modifying the timer settings reset the expiration count to zero?
