You can spin on the gettimeofday() result in userspace.


How can I use it?

Something like:

gettimeofday(&curtime,0);
add_usecs(&curtime,  time_to_sleep);
do {
        gettimeofday(&curtime,0);
} while (time_before(&curtime, &expiry);


Of course, if someone changes the system time on you you're screwed....
