This interface can only be used by a single task on the system and is wasteful of cpu and power. When this is not available, or not configured to allow setting 1024 interrupts per second ( it isn't by default ), it falls back to wasteful busy waiting. It needs patched to use modern posix timers that can use the modern tickless and HPET kernel features to allow the cpu to remain in deep low power state until the exact time requested.
