Hello,
I had that part. It fails build because the parameter of
rtTimerLinuxStdCallback() needs to be "struct timer_list *t". The part I have
not gotten right is how one uses that "t" to get the correct value of pSubTimer
from "t" using the from_timer() macro.


indeed...
maybe something like this? (sorry can't check right now)

I finally got it with code that is similar to what you posted. It builds and 
works.
