we can see that each processor port defines those functions (in the
'xxxx_misc.c' file):
- void hal_clock_initialize(cyg_uint32 period)
- void hal_clock_read(cyg_uint32 *pvalue)
- void hal_delay_us(cyg_int32 usecs)
what kind of timer should a processor use to define correctly those functions ?
what is the link between the RTC and the scheduler. If there is one, where
is it defined ?
where is defined the time slicing of the scheduler ?
thanks for your help
