Subject: "man setitimer" give bad informations
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Package: manpages-dev
Version: 1.36-2
"man setitimer" says :
Timers will never expire before the requested time,
instead expiring some short, constant time afterwards,
I used "gettimeofday" to verify this behavior and it says
that the timer expires before the requested time.
(It is also the case with IRIX but not with HPUX).
Maybe it is a ``bug'' in "gettimeofday", I don't know.
There is my test program :
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
struct timeval start_time ;
volatile int stop_program = 0 ;
#define T 100000
void fct()
{
struct timezone tz ;
struct timeval t ;
gettimeofday(&t, &tz) ;
printf("current time=%ld, expected time must be greater than %d\n"
, (t.tv_sec-start_time.tv_sec)*1000000
+ (t.tv_usec-start_time.tv_usec)
, T
) ;
stop_program = 1 ;
}
int main()
{
struct itimerval itv ;
struct timezone tz ;
signal(SIGALRM, fct) ;
itv.it_interval.tv_sec = 0 ;
itv.it_interval.tv_usec = T ;
itv.it_value = itv.it_interval ;
gettimeofday(&start_time, &tz) ;
setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &itv, NULL) ;
while( !stop_program )
{
}
return(0) ;
}
