I'm not sure this commit message accurately reflects the content of the
patch. At any rate, please could you:
 - say what the patch adds the functions and attributes to.
 - phrase your message as "Add generic ..." not "Patch adds
generic ...": see

Can these structs be constified?

You test for sample period twice here.

Is this necessary?

Stop calls update, which I guess makes sense as it finalises the value.
But if the event is being deleted anyway, why not just do nothing here?
