/**
* @defgroup sys_evtimer Millisecond interval event timers
* @ingroup sys
* @brief Provides timers for events up to @$2^{32}@$ milliseconds in the
* future
*
* @note Experimental and likely to replaced with unified timer API
*
* RIOT's main timer subsystem is @ref sys_xtimer "xtimer", but for many
* applications @ref sys_xtimer "xtimer's" 64-bit absolute time values are
* wasteful or clumsy to use.
*
* Compared to @ref sys_xtimer "xtimer", evtimer offers:
*
* - only relative 32-bit millisecond timer values
* Events can be scheduled with a relative offset of up to ~49.7 days in the
* future.
* **For time-critical stuff, use @ref sys_xtimer "xtimer"!**
* - more flexible, "intrusive" timer type @ref evtimer_event_t only contains
* the necessary fields, which can be extended as needed, and handlers define
* actions taken on timer triggers. Check out @ref evtimer_msg_event_t as
* example.
* - uses @ref sys_xtimer "xtimer" as backend
