Hi, I need some kernel code to be executed periodically and I am wondering what the best way would be to achieve this. I can imagine the following possibilities:
- Have a thread run containing a while loop with a delay inside. This would have the disadvantage that the time between the thread's execution is run is not always fixed (it would depend on the load of the system, ...). - Schedule a task to run at certain times. How do I achieve this? Which functions can I use from within the kernel to use the timer? - Are there any other possibilities? Do they have certain advantages/disadvantages? Thank you, Thomas De Schampheleire
