# timeout

Function that routes the call from the OS' timeout mechanism into a work-loop context.

## Declaration

```occ
static void timeout(
 void *self); 
```

## Parameters

- `self`: This argument will be cast to an IOTimerEventSource.

## Overview

Overview timeout will normally not be called nor overridden by a subclass. If the event source is enabled then close the work-loop's gate and call the action routine.
