I need to mark tasks for execution at a later time. For example, at the
completion of task A, I want to tell the scheduler to release task A for
exeecution in exactly X microseconds. Here, X is a number which I don't
necessarily know a priori, but will be determined on the fly.
Does anybody have suggestions as to how I might be able to accomplish
this using the RTLv2.0 API? I have considered using the
"pthread_make_periodic" for one solution. A second solution might be to
have the 8254 generate an interrupt which calls some interrupt service
routine. Unfortunately, this seems to be a recurring requirement in
several control and rotor dynamics applications that I encounter, so I
don't see any way around this.
Any ideas, commentaries, and/or war stories on this subject would be
much appreciated.
