Subject: [PATCH 2/8] additions to src/time
Date: Sat, 30 Aug 2014 20:46:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aaebc5b34089d367a4fa1a9e8f35712bcaf3c8e5.1409423162.git.Jens.Gustedt@inria.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1409423162.git.Jens.Gustedt@inria.fr>

This adds two functions, thrd_sleep and timespec_get. Both have easy
functional equivalences in POSIX, but these have subtle differences in
the handling of errors.

thrd_sleep forces concrete numerical values as error return

timespec_get has a call interface that is incompatible with POSIX because
it has a bogus coding for its clock constants, and also this clock
constants must be returned in case of success. For the moment we only
implement one single clock, TIME_UTC, and map this to
CLOCK_REALTIME. This is the clock that we later need to measure time for
the timedlock and timedwait.

Also, other than for clock_gettime, C doesn't specify touching errno for
timespec_get. Because CLOCK_REALTIME can be obtained very efficiently
through VDSO and messing with errno is clearly the wrong step to go, we
try to avoid this.
