Then you can pretty much wait for however long you want. If you need to start very shortly after the timer expires, regardless of the load etc, you should probably have a look at the rt-patch series. Btw, why do you need to wait for 2 whole ticks? And, have you condisdered the consequences of this code in a tickless kernel? > Regards, > Asim enrik -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
