Does not require hpet support. Definition in file rte_alarm.h. Typedef Documentation typedef void(* rte_eal_alarm_callback) (void *arg) Signature of callback back function called when an alarm goes off. Definition at line 26 of file rte_alarm.h. Function Documentation int rte_eal_alarm_set (uint64_t us, rte_eal_alarm_callback cb, void * cb_arg) Function to set a callback to be triggered when us microseconds have ex- pired. Accuracy of timing to the microsecond is not guaranteed. The alarm function will not be called before the requested time, but may be called a short period of time afterwards. The alarm handler will be called only once. There is no need to call 'rte_eal_alarm_cancel' from within the call- back function. Parameters us The time in microseconds before the callback is called cb The function to be called when the alarm expires cb_arg Pointer parameter to be passed to the callback function Returns On success, zero. On failure, a negative error number int rte_eal_alarm_cancel (rte_eal_alarm_callback cb_fn, void * cb_arg) Function to cancel an alarm callback which has been registered before. If used outside alarm callback it wait for all callbacks to finish execution. Parameters cb_fn alarm callback cb_arg Pointer parameter to be passed to the callback function. To re- move all copies of a given callback function, irrespective of parame- ter, (void *)-1 can be used here. Returns * value greater than 0 and rte_errno not changed - returned value is the number of canceled alarm callback functions * value greater or equal 0 and rte_errno set to EINPROGRESS, at least one alarm could not be canceled because cancellation was requested from alarm callback context. Returned value is the number of success- fully canceled alarm callbacks * 0 and rte_errno set to ENOENT - no alarm found * -1 and rte_errno set to EINVAL - invalid parameter (NULL callback) Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for DPDK from the source code.
