Detailed Description

Function Documentation

void xnclock_deregister ( struct xnclock * clock )

Deregister a Xenomai clock.

This service uninstalls a Xenomai clock previously registered with xnclock_register().

This service may be called once all timers driven by clock have been stopped.

Parameters

clock The clock to deregister.

Register a Xenomai clock.

This service installs a new clock which may be used to drive Xenomai timers.

Parameters

clock	The new clock to register.
affinity	The set of CPUs we may expect the backing clock device to tick on. As a special case, passing a NULL affinity mask means that timer IRQs cannot be seen as percpu events, in which case all outstanding timers will be maintained into a single global queue instead of percpu timer queues.

void xnclock_tick ( struct xnclock * clock )

Process a clock tick.

This routine processes an incoming clock event, firing elapsed timers as appropriate.

Parameters

clock The clock for which a new event was received.

Note: The current CPU must be part of the real-time affinity set unless the clock device has no particular IRQ affinity, otherwise weird things may happen.
