Plus not all machines have a physical RTC chip.
If you want periodic interrupt emulation on those you need a patch [1],
but that just generates a software interrupt. That would suffer from a
change in HZ value AFAIK.

no, to make everyone happy we need the High Res Timer patch. that avoids
the stupidity of a fixed HZ, which is so early '90s that its
embarrassing.
Agreed 100%. I just wonder about the availability of the required
chip on

Because sleep/wakeup, poll, etc are much nicer interfaces than /dev/rtc.

So, worst case scheduling would seem to me to be around 0.32 msec (ie: I
want the message to be sent at time t+/-320 usec).
If you want jitter-free MIDI clock, that is absolutely correct. OTOH,
I often wondered why MIDI interfaces are not designed to work in the
