If it's some microseconds, you can use usleep. However expect some effect on the system performance (depends on how long and how often you will sleep). If it's longer, you should schedule another tasklet to finish, but expect to only get HZ precision timing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@ucw.cz> -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
