Given that Plan9 has been much more thorough than Unix in the 'everything is a file' way, I wonder how they solved this issue?

timerfd() and system call review Posted Aug 30, 2007 23:23 UTC (Thu) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Plan 9 has `notes' instead of signals, but it looks like they too were`call this function automatically' things rather than being reified into fds. Surprising. (However, notes are plan9ish in another way: they're strings, not integers.)
