+<strong>Function</strong> - Ring a preset alarm.
+<h3>SYNOPSIS</h3>
+<pre>
+<strong>kern_return_t clock_alarm_reply</strong>
+ <strong>(reply_port_t</strong> <var>alarm_reply_port</var>,
+ <strong>kern_return_t</strong> <var>reply_code</var>,
+ <strong>alarm_type_t</strong> <var>alarm_type</var>,
+ <strong>tvalspec_t</strong> <var>wake_time</var><strong>);</strong>
+</pre>
+<h3>PARAMETERS</h3>
+<dl>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>alarm_reply_port</var>
+<dd>
+[in alarm (receive) right]
+The reply port named in the corresponding
+<strong>clock_alarm</strong> call.
+<p>
+<dt> <var>reply_code</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+The reply status code from the alarm. The possible values
+are:
+<dl>
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>KERN_SUCCESS</strong>
+<dd>
+The alarm was delivered without problem.
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>KERN_INVALID_VALUE</strong>
+<dd>
+The <var>alarm_type</var> and/or <var>alarm_time</var> values supplied to
+<strong>clock_alarm</strong> were invalid.
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>KERN_INVALID_LEDGER</strong>
+<dd>
+The <var>ledger</var> supplied to <strong>clock_alarm</strong> was not a ledger.
+<p>
+<dt> <strong>KERN_ABORTED</strong>
+<dd>
+The alarm was terminated via use of <strong>clock_set_time</strong>.
+</dl>
+<p>
+<dt> <var>alarm_type</var>
+<dd>
+[in scalar]
+The alarm type value supplied to the <strong>clock_alarm</strong> call.
+Only the low order bits of this value are used by the kernel so the high
+order bits are available for application use as an alarm identifier.
+<p>
+<dt> <var>wake_time</var>
+<dd>
+[in structure]
+The time when the alarm message was sent.
