Hi, My user application needs some ten timers to be used for data sharing and other timing outs. Since, we cant use the kernel timers for the user applications, could you please suggest any system calls or some methods to achieve the required one.? If so, please suggest the way, which we need to compile the timer code! with best regards, rg. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
