+Directives
+==========
+
+This section details the clock manager's directives. A subsection is dedicated
+to each of this manager's directives and describes the calling sequence,
+related constants, usage, and status codes.

+CLOCK_SET - Set date and time
+-----------------------------
+
+CALLING SEQUENCE:
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ rtems_status_code rtems_clock_set(
+ rtems_time_of_day *time_buffer
+ );
+
+DIRECTIVE STATUS CODES:
+ .. list-table::
+ :class: rtems-table
+
+ * - ``RTEMS_SUCCESSFUL``
+ - date and time set successfully
+ * - ``RTEMS_INVALID_ADDRESS``
+ - ``time_buffer`` is NULL
+ * - ``RTEMS_INVALID_CLOCK``
+ - invalid time of day
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive sets the system date and time. The date, time, and ticks in
+ the time_buffer structure are all range-checked, and an error is returned
+ if any one is out of its valid range.
+
+NOTES:
+ Years before 1988 are invalid.
+
+ The system date and time are based on the configured tick rate (number of
+ microseconds in a tick).
+
+ Setting the time forward may cause a higher priority task, blocked waiting
+ on a specific time, to be made ready. In this case, the calling task will
+ be preempted after the next clock tick.
+
+ Re-initializing RTEMS causes the system date and time to be reset to an
+ uninitialized state. Another call to ``rtems_clock_set`` is required to
+ re-initialize the system date and time to application specific
+ specifications.

+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive obtains the system date and time. If the date and time has
+ not been set with a previous call to ``rtems_clock_set``, then the
+ ``RTEMS_NOT_DEFINED`` status code is returned.
+
+NOTES:
+ This directive is callable from an ISR.
+
+ This directive will not cause the running task to be preempted.

+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive obtains the system date and time in POSIX ``struct timeval``
+ format. If the date and time has not been set with a previous call to
+ ``rtems_clock_set``, then the ``RTEMS_NOT_DEFINED`` status code is
+ returned.

+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive returns the number of seconds since the RTEMS epoch and the
+ current system date and time. If the date and time has not been set with a
+ previous call to ``rtems_clock_set``, then the ``RTEMS_NOT_DEFINED`` status
+ code is returned.

+CALLING SEQUENCE:

+
+DIRECTIVE STATUS CODES:

+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive returns the number of clock ticks per second. This is
+ strictly based upon the microseconds per clock tick that the application
+ has configured.

+
+ rtems_interval rtems_clock_get_ticks_since_boot(void);
+
+DIRECTIVE STATUS CODES:
+ NONE
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+
+ This directive returns the current tick counter value. With a 1ms clock
+ tick, this counter overflows after 50 days since boot. This is the
+ historical measure of uptime in an RTEMS system. The newer service
+ ``rtems_clock_get_uptime`` is another and potentially more accurate way of
+ obtaining similar information.
+
+NOTES:

+ This directive is callable from an ISR.

+
+CALLING SEQUENCE:
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ rtems_interval rtems_clock_tick_later_usec(
+ rtems_interval delta_in_usec
+ );
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ Returns the ticks counter value at least delta microseconds in the future.
+
+NOTES:
+ This directive is callable from an ISR.
+
+ This directive will not cause the running task to be preempted.

+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+CALLING SEQUENCE:
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ rtems_interval rtems_clock_tick_before(

+ );
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ Returns true if the current ticks counter value indicates a time before the
+ time specified by the tick value and false otherwise.
+
+NOTES:
+ This directive is callable from an ISR.
+
+ This directive will not cause the running task to be preempted.

+.. index:: rtems_clock_get
+
+.. warning::
+
+ This directive was removed in RTEMS 5.1. See also
+ :ref:`ClockManagerAdviceClockGet`.
+
+CALLING SEQUENCE:
+ .. code-block:: c
+
+ rtems_status_code rtems_clock_get(

+
+DIRECTIVE STATUS CODES:

+
+ * - ``RTEMS_SUCCESSFUL``
+ - current time obtained successfully
+ * - ``RTEMS_NOT_DEFINED``
+ - system date and time is not set
+ * - ``RTEMS_INVALID_ADDRESS``
+ - ``time_buffer`` is NULL
+
+DESCRIPTION:
+ This directive obtains the system date and time. If the caller is
+ attempting to obtain the date and time (i.e. option is set to either
+ ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_SECONDS_SINCE_EPOCH``, ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TOD``, or
+ ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TIME_VALUE``) and the date and time has not been set with
+ a previous call to ``rtems_clock_set``, then the ``RTEMS_NOT_DEFINED``
+ status code is returned. The caller can always obtain the number of ticks
+ per second (option is ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TICKS_PER_SECOND``) and the number
+ of ticks since the executive was initialized option is
+ ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TICKS_SINCE_BOOT``).
+
+ The ``option`` argument may taken on any value of the enumerated type
+ ``rtems_clock_get_options``. The data type expected for ``time_buffer`` is
+ based on the value of ``option`` as indicated below:
+
+ .. index:: rtems_clock_get_options
+
+ +-----------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ | Option | Return type |
+ +=========================================+===========================+
+ | ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TOD`` | ``(rtems_time_of_day *)`` |

+ | ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_SECONDS_SINCE_EPOCH`` | ``(rtems_interval *)`` |
+ +-----------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ | ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TICKS_SINCE_BOOT`` | ``(rtems_interval *)`` |
+ +-----------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ |``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TICKS_PER_SECOND`` | ``(rtems_interval *)`` |
+ +-----------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+ | ``RTEMS_CLOCK_GET_TIME_VALUE`` | ``(struct timeval *)`` |
+ +-----------------------------------------+---------------------------+
+
+NOTES:
+ This directive is callable from an ISR.
+
+ This directive will not cause the running task to be preempted.
+ Re-initializing RTEMS causes the system date and time to be reset to an
+ uninitialized state. Another call to ``rtems_clock_set`` is required to
+ re-initialize the system date and time to application specific
+ specifications.
