Dear Sir/Mam We are using Linux in one of our embedded products.This is the first time we are working in this Platform.We have few doubts regarding implementing s/w timers & how to pass the timer interrupts to threads . In net we coudnt find exactly what we want .Could you please help us in this regard?
Ideas from us 1. If we want a thread to execute at particular intervals should it be done only through usleep() system call ? Will it be accurate enough ? Because it is a real time design for a Medical Product.
2. If we use kernel timers to invoke at particular time intervals using add_timer () how to pass on to the application that the time has elapsed?
A piece of code demonstartion would be much more helpful to us
Thanks & Regards, Reefath Banu Rajali Software Engineer Larsen & Toubro Embedded Systems & Software Mysore India
