The note 'alarm' is needed to interrupt the system call on timeout since system calls to lan 9 can be of a network nature, a notes is indispensable. A great example of this is the read() system call on a udp-connection. How else can this system call be interrupted?
Start two processes, one which just make the call, another as a timer to kill it. But I have something in mind for a case like this, when all the processes are going to use the same handler (that's why I was asking).
