- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto - Fix for default mtree style - Update libelf - Importing libexecinfo - Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr - build.sh: Replace params with show-params. This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added. This new target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of printing it on the console. - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org) get getservbyport() out of the inner loop Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091

|
|
.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 settings 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
|
|
argument 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 .

The
