/* The file contais the clock task, which handles all time related functions. * Important events that are handled by the CLOCK include alarm timers and * (re)scheduling user processes. * The CLOCK offers a direct interface to kernel processes. System services * can access its services through system calls, such as sys_setalarm(). The * CLOCK task thus is hidden for the outside world. * * Changes: * Mar 18, 2004 clock interface moved to SYSTEM task (Jorrit N. Herder) * Sep 30, 2004 source code documentation updated (Jorrit N. Herder) * Sep 24, 2004 redesigned alarm timers (Jorrit N. Herder) * * The function do_clocktick() is only triggered by the clock's interrupt * handler when a watchdog timer has expired or a process must be scheduled. * * In addition to the main clock_task() entry point, which starts the main * loop, there are several other minor entry points: * clock_stop: called just before MINIX shutdown * get_uptime: get realtime since boot in clock ticks * set_timer: set a watchdog timer (+) * reset_timer: reset a watchdog timer (+) * read_clock: read the counter of channel 0 of the 8253A timer * * (+) The CLOCK task keeps tracks of watchdog timers for the entire kernel. * The watchdog functions of expired timers are executed in do_clocktick(). * It is crucial that watchdog functions cannot block, or the CLOCK task may * be blocked. Do not send() a message when the receiver is not expecting it. * Instead, notify(), which always returns, should be used. */ #include "kernel.h" #include "proc.h" #include #include /* Function prototype for PRIVATE functions. */ FORWARD _PROTOTYPE( void init_clock, (void) ); FORWARD _PROTOTYPE( int clock_handler, (irq_hook_t *hook) ); FORWARD _PROTOTYPE( int do_clocktick, (message *m_ptr) ); /* Clock parameters. */ #if (CHIP == INTEL) #define COUNTER_FREQ (2*TIMER_FREQ) /* counter frequency using square wave */ #define LATCH_COUNT 0x00 /* cc00xxxx, c = channel, x = any */ #define SQUARE_WAVE 0x36 /* ccaammmb, a = access, m = mode, b = BCD */ /* 11x11, 11 = LSB then MSB, x11 = sq wave */ #define TIMER_COUNT ((unsigned) (TIMER_FREQ/HZ)) /* initial value for counter*/ #define TIMER_FREQ 1193182L /* clock frequency for timer in PC and AT */ #define CLOCK_ACK_BIT 0x80 /* PS/2 clock interrupt acknowledge bit */ #endif #if (CHIP == M68000) #define TIMER_FREQ 2457600L /* timer 3 input clock frequency */ #endif /* The CLOCK's timers queue.
