Detailed Description

◆ RTEMS_TIMECOUNTER_QUALITY_CLOCK_DRIVER

#define RTEMS_TIMECOUNTER_QUALITY_CLOCK_DRIVER   100

Timecounter quality for the clock drivers.

Timecounter with higher quality value are used in favour of those with lower quality value.

Definition at line 47 of file timecounter.h.

Function Documentation

◆ rtems_timecounter_install()

static __inline__ void rtems_timecounter_install ( struct timecounter tc)
static

Installs the timecounter.

The timecounter structure must contain valid values in the fields tc_get_timecount, tc_counter_mask, tc_frequency and tc_quality. All other fields must be zero initialized.

Parameters
tcThe timecounter.

Below is an exemplary code snippet that shows the adjustable parameters and the following call of the install routine.

struct timecounter tc;
uint32_t get_timecount( struct timecounter *tc )
{
return some_free_running_counter;
}
void install( void )
{
tc.tc_get_timecount = get_timecount;
tc.tc_counter_mask = 0xffffffff;
tc.tc_frequency = 123456;
}

◆ rtems_timecounter_simple_downcounter_get()

static __inline__ uint32_t rtems_timecounter_simple_downcounter_get ( struct timecounter tc_base,
rtems_timecounter_simple_get  get,
rtems_timecounter_simple_is_pending  is_pending 
)
static

Gets the simple timecounter value mapped to its binary frequency domain for downcounters.

Parameters
[in]tcThe simple timecounter.
[in]getThe method to get the value of the simple timecounter.
[in]is_pendingThe method which indicates if the interrupt of the simple timecounter is pending.

Definition at line 278 of file timecounter.h.

◆ rtems_timecounter_simple_downcounter_tick()

static __inline__ void rtems_timecounter_simple_downcounter_tick ( rtems_timecounter_simple tc,
rtems_timecounter_simple_get  get,
rtems_timecounter_simple_at_tick  at_tick 
)
static

Performs a simple timecounter tick for downcounters.

Parameters
[in]tcThe simple timecounter.
[in]getThe method to get the value of the simple timecounter.
[in]at_tickThe method to perform work under timecounter lock protection at this tick, e.g. clear a pending flag.

Definition at line 222 of file timecounter.h.

◆ rtems_timecounter_simple_install()

void rtems_timecounter_simple_install ( rtems_timecounter_simple tc,
uint32_t  counter_frequency_in_hz,
uint32_t  counter_ticks_per_clock_tick,
timecounter_get_t *  get_timecount 
)

Initializes and installs a simple timecounter.

A simple timecounter can be used if the hardware provides no free running counter. A periodic hardware counter must be provided. The counter period must be synchronous to the clock tick. The counter ticks per clock tick is scaled up to the next power of two.

Parameters
[in]tcZero initialized simple timecounter.
[in]counter_frequency_in_hzThe hardware counter frequency in Hz.
[in]counter_ticks_per_clock_tickThe hardware counter ticks per clock tick.
[in]get_timecountThe method to get the current time count.

static __inline__ uint32_t rtems_timecounter_simple_scale ( const rtems_timecounter_simple tc,
uint32_t  value 
)
static

Maps a simple timecounter value into its binary frequency domain.

Parameters
[in]tcThe simple timecounter.
[in]valueThe value of the simple timecounter.
Returns
The scaled value.
