Detailed Description

Function Documentation

◆ get_ms_count()

uint64_t get_ms_count ( void )

Generic thread functions.

These are C versions of functions provided in C++ via rtos::Thread and rtos::ThisThread Read the current RTOS kernel millisecond tick count. The tick count corresponds to the tick count the RTOS uses for timing purposes. It increments monotonically from 0 at boot, so it effectively never wraps. If the underlying RTOS only provides a 32-bit tick count, this method expands it to 64 bits.

Returns: RTOS kernel current tick count

Note: Mbed OS always uses millisecond RTOS ticks, and this could only wrap after half a billion years.; In a non-RTOS build, this computes an equivalent time in milliseconds, based on a HAL timer. The time may be referenced as 0 on first call.; You cannot call this function from ISR context.; The equivalent functionality is accessible in C++ via rtos::Kernel::get_ms_count.

◆ thread_sleep_for()

void thread_sleep_for ( uint32_t millisec )

Sleep for a specified time period in millisec:

Parameters

millisec time delay value

Note: You cannot call this function from ISR context.; The equivalent functionality is accessible in C++ via rtos::ThisThread::sleep_for.

◆ thread_sleep_until()

void thread_sleep_until ( uint64_t millisec )

Sleep until a specified time in millisec The specified time is according to Kernel::get_ms_count().
