If the rtems.rate_monotonic_period
directive is invoked
with a period of RTEMS.PERIOD_STATUS
ticks, the current
state of the specified rate monotonic period will be returned. The following
table details the relationship between the period's status and
the directive status code returned by the
rtems.rate_monotonic_period
directive:
RTEMS.SUCCESSFUL
- period is running
RTEMS.TIMEOUT
- period has expired
RTEMS.NOT_DEFINED
- period has never been initiated
Obtaining the status of a rate monotonic period does not alter the state or length of that period.
