There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

|
|
.In time.h
|

.Ft int
|
|
.Fn timer_getoverrun "timer_t timerid"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn timer_settime
|
|
sets the next expiration time of the timer with ID
|
|
.Ar timerid
|
|
to the
|
|
.Fa it_value
|
|
(see
|
|
.Xr itimerspec 3 )
|
|
specified in the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argument.
|
|
If the value is 0, the timer is disarmed.
|
|
If the argument
|
|
.Ar otim
|
|
is not
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
the old timer settingas are returned.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Ar flags
|
|
argument is set to
|
|
.Dv TIMER_RELTIME
|
|
then the expiration time is set to the value in nanoseconds specified
|
|
in the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argument from the time the call to
|
|
.Fn timer_settime
|
|
was made.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Ar flags
|
|
argument is set to
|
|
.Dv TIMER_ABSTIME
|
|
then the expiration time is set to be equal to the difference between the
|
|
clock associated with this timer, and the value specified in the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argument.
|
|
If that time has already passed, then the call succeeds, and the
|
|
expiration notification occurs.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fa it_interval
|
|
of the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argument is non-zero, then the timer reloads upon expiration.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn timer_gettime
|
|
function returns the current settings of the timer
|
|
specified by the
|
|
.Ar timerid
|
|
argument in the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argument.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Only one notification event (signal) can be pending for a given timer
|
|
and process.
|
|
If a timer expires while the signal is still queued for delivery, then
|
|
the overrun counter for that timer is increased.
|
|
The counter can store values up to
|
|
.Dv DELAYTIMER_MAX .
|
|
When the signal is finally delivered to the process, then the
|
|
.Fn timer_getoverrun
|
|
function can be used to retrieve the overrun counter for the timer
|
|
specified in the
|
|
.Ar timerid
|
|
argument.
|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
Expiration time values are always rounded up to the resolution of the timer,
|
|
so a notification will never be sent before the requested time.
|
|
Values returned in the
|
|
.Ar otim
|
|
argument of
|
|
.Fn timer_settime
|
|
or in the
|
|
.Ar tim
|
|
argment of
|
|
.Fn timer_gettime
|
|
are subject to the above rounding effect and might not exactly match the
|
|
requested values by the user.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If successful, the
|
|
.Fn timer_gettime
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn timer_settime
|
|
functions return 0, and the
|
|
.Fn timer_getoverrun
|
|
function returns the expiration overrun count for the specified timer.
|
|
Otherwise, the functions return \-1, and set
|
|
.Dv errno
|
|
to indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn timer_gettime ,
|
|
.Fn timer_getoverrun ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn timer_settime
|
|
functions will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Ar timerid
|
|
does not correspond to a valid timer id as returned by
|
|
.Fn timer_create
|
|
or that timer id has been deleted by
|
|
.Fn timer_delete .
