.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
.I Delay
|
|
|
|
|
busy waits for
|
|
|
|
|
.I ms
|
2019-11-21 00:05:52 +00:00
|
|
|
milliseconds. The minimum value of
|
|
|
|
|
.I ms
|
|
|
|
|
is one on most architectures.

.I Microdelay
|
|
|
|
|
works exactly the same as
|
|
|
|
|
.I delay
|
|
|
|
|
but using microseconds instead.

These routines are intended for use in interrupt contexts,
|
|
|
|
|
device reset and shutdown functions, and other places where
|
|
|
|
|
the scheduler is unavailable.
|
|
|
|
|
When you have a process context, and can sleep, consider
|
|
|
|
|
.IR tsleep (9).
|
|
|
|
|
.I Tsleep
|
|
|
|
|
does not busy wait.

.I Addclock0link
|
|
|
|
|
adds a new periodic timer to the current processor's timer list, with
|
|
|
|
|
.I clockf
|
|
|
|
|
executing every
|
|
|
|
|
.I ms
|
|
|
|
|
milliseconds. If
|
|
|
|
|
.I ms
|
|
|
|
|
is zero a default clock is used, it will panic otherwise (i.e.
|
|
|
|
|
.I ms
|
|
|
|
|
< 0).
