The first -focuses on obtaining and setting the current date and time. The other category -of services focus on allowing a thread to delay for a specific length of time. - -The directives provided by the clock manager are: - -- clock_gettime_ - Obtain Time of Day - -- clock_settime_ - Set Time of Day - -- clock_getres_ - Get Clock Resolution - -- sleep_ - Delay Process Execution - -- usleep_ - Delay Process Execution in Microseconds - -- nanosleep_ - Delay with High Resolution - -- gettimeofday_ - Get the Time of Day - -- time_ - Get time in seconds - -Background -========== - -There is currently no text in this section. - -Operations -========== - -There is currently no text in this section. - -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_gettime: - -clock_gettime - Obtain Time of Day ----------------------------------- -.. index:: clock_gettime -.. index:: obtain time of day - -**CALLING SEQUENCE:** - -.. code-block:: c - - #include - int clock_gettime( - clockid_t clock_id, - struct timespec *tp - ); - -**STATUS CODES:** - -On error, this routine returns -1 and sets ``errno`` to one of the following: - -.. list-table:: - :class: rtems-table - - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The tp pointer parameter is invalid. - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The clock_id specified is invalid. - -**DESCRIPTION:** - -**NOTES:** - -NONE - -.. _clock_settime: - -clock_settime - Set Time of Day -------------------------------- -.. index:: clock_settime -.. index:: set time of day - -**CALLING SEQUENCE:** - -.. code-block:: c - - #include - int clock_settime( - clockid_t clock_id, - const struct timespec *tp - ); - -**STATUS CODES:** - -On error, this routine returns -1 and sets ``errno`` to one of the following: - -.. list-table:: - :class: rtems-table - - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The tp pointer parameter is invalid. - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The clock_id specified is invalid. - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The contents of the tp structure are invalid. - -**DESCRIPTION:** - -**NOTES:** - -NONE - -.. _clock_getres: - -clock_getres - Get Clock Resolution ------------------------------------ -.. index:: clock_getres -.. index:: get clock resolution - -**CALLING SEQUENCE:** - -.. code-block:: c - - #include - int clock_getres( - clockid_t clock_id, - struct timespec *res - ); - -**STATUS CODES:** - -On error, this routine returns -1 and sets ``errno`` to one of the following: - -.. list-table:: - :class: rtems-table - - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The res pointer parameter is invalid. - * - ``EINVAL`` - - The clock_id specified is invalid. - -**DESCRIPTION:** - -**NOTES:** - -If ``res`` is ``NULL``, then the resolution is not returned. - -.. _sleep: - -sleep - Delay Process Execution -------------------------------- -.. index:: sleep -.. index:: delay process execution - -**CALLING SEQUENCE:** - -.. code-block:: c - - #include - unsigned int sleep( - unsigned int seconds - ); - -**STATUS CODES:** - -This routine returns the number of unslept seconds. - -**DESCRIPTION:** - -The ``sleep()`` function delays the calling thread by the specified number of -``seconds``. - -**NOTES:** - -This call is interruptible by a signal. - -.. _usleep: - -usleep - Delay Process Execution in Microseconds ------------------------------------------------- -.. index:: usleep -.. index:: delay process execution -.. index:: delay process execution -.. index:: usecs delay process execution -.. index:: microsecond delay process execution - -**CALLING SEQUENCE:** - -.. code-block:: c - - #include - useconds_t usleep( - useconds_t useconds - ); - -**STATUS CODES:** - -This routine returns the number of unslept seconds. - -**DESCRIPTION:** - -The ``sleep()`` function delays the calling thread by the specified number of -``seconds``. - -The ``usleep()`` function suspends the calling thread from execution until -either the number of microseconds specified by the ``useconds`` argument has -elapsed or a signal is delivered to the calling thread and its action is to -invoke a signal-catching function or to terminate the process. - -Because of other activity, or because of the time spent in processing the call, -the actual length of time the thread is blocked may be longer than the amount -of time specified. - -**NOTES:** - -This call is interruptible by a signal. - -The Single UNIX Specification allows this service to be implemented using the -same timer as that used by the ``alarm()`` service.
