Sterling Hughes reassigned MYNEWT-8:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Sterling Hughes
> eventq_get() should have a timeout
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: MYNEWT-8
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-8
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: OS
> Reporter: Sterling Hughes
> Assignee: Sterling Hughes
> Fix For: v0_8_0_beta2
>
>
> Right now eventq_get() blocks until an event is put on the queue (and waits
> forever if not.)
> In order to schedule a timeout, a callout must be used, to post an event to
> the queue, if now other events are present. This is inconvenient.
> eventq_get() should take an argument which is a timeout in OS ticks. If
> timeout ticks have expired, and no events are present, the eventq_get()
> should return NULL. If OS_WAIT_FOREVER is specified, then os_eventq_get()
> should maintain current behaviour.
