In the documentation of rtlv3.0 (test 9) I read:
pthread_make_periodic_np : ``[...]If the period is equal to 0, the
task will be released once at the start_time.[...]''
(This sounds like one shot timer programming?)
On the other hand, the code in schedulers/rtl_sched.c says:
int pthread_make_periodic_np (pthread_t p, hrtime_t start_time,
hrtime_t period)
{
rtl_irqstate_t interrupt_state;
if (period <= 0) {
return EINVAL;
}
[...]
which indicates that a period equal to 0 returns an error...
Is this an accidental inconsistency between code and documentation, or
a misinterpretation by me?
