22 Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI)
29 The callback function to be invoked periodically in the specified interval.
38 The argument passed to the callback function.
47 The periodic interval time in nanoseconds.
56 The callback function is invoked at this priority level. If the value of
57 \fIlevel\fR is zero, the callback function is invoked in kernel context.
58 If the value is greater than zero, but less than or equal to ten, the callback
59 function is invoked in interrupt context at the specified interrupt level,
60 which may be used for real time applications.
62 This value must be in range of 0-10, which can be either an integer literal, a
63 pre-defined macro (\fBDDI_IPL_0\fR, ... , \fBDDI_IPL_10\fR), or the
64 \fBDDI_INTR_PRI\fR macro with the interrupt priority.
69 The \fBddi_periodic_add()\fR function schedules the specified function to be
70 periodically invoked in the nanosecond interval time.
73 As with \fBtimeout\fR(9F), the exact time interval over which the function
74 takes effect cannot be guaranteed, but the value given is a close
75 approximation. If the callback function has not finished execution when the
76 next interval expires, the system will skip running the callback for that
80 \fBddi_periodic_add()\fR returns the non-zero opaque value
81 (\fBddi_periodic_t\fR), which is later used to cancel the periodic request
82 with \fBddi_periodic_delete\fR(9F).
85 The \fBddi_periodic_add()\fR function may be called from user or kernel
89 \fBExample 1 \fRUsing \fBddi_periodic_add()\fR for a periodic callback function
92 In the following example, the device driver registers a periodic callback
93 function invoked in kernel context.
99 my_periodic_func(void *arg)
102 * This handler is invoked periodically.
104 struct my_state *statep = (struct my_state *)arg;
106 mutex_enter(&statep->lock);
107 if (load_unbalanced(statep)) {
108 balance_tasks(statep);
110 mutex_exit(&statep->lock);
114 start_periodic_timer(struct my_state *statep)
116 hrtime_t interval = CHECK_INTERVAL;
118 mutex_init(&statep->lock, NULL, MUTEX_DRIVER, DDI_IPL_0);
121 * Register my_callback which is invoked periodically
122 * in CHECK_INTERVAL in kernel context.
124 statep->periodic_id = ddi_periodic_add(my_periodic_func,
125 statep, interval, DDI_IPL_0);
131 In the following example, the device driver registers a callback function
132 invoked in interrupt context at level 7.
137 * This handler is invoked periodically in interrupt context.
140 my_periodic_int7_func(void *arg)
142 struct my_state *statep = (struct my_state *)arg;

144 monitor_device(statep);
145 mutex_exit(&statep->lock);
149 start_monitor_device(struct my_state *statep)
151 hrtime_t interval = MONITOR_INTERVAL;
153 mutex_init(&statep->lock, NULL, MUTEX_DRIVER, DDI_IPL_7);
156 * Register the callback function invoked periodically
157 * at interrupt level 7.
159 statep->periodic_id = ddi_periodic_add(my_periodic_int7_func,
160 statep, interval, DDI_IPL_7);
167 \fBcv_timedwait\fR(9F), \fBddi_intr_get_pri\fR(9F),

172 The caller must specify \fIinterval\fR as an even, non-zero multiple of 10ms.
173 No other values are supported at this time. The interval specified is a lower
174 bound on the interval between executions of the callback.
