Argument for tick function

C synopsis target-domain
struct TimerNull_Params {
      ...
    UArg arg;
 
DETAILS
Default is null.
 
config TimerNull_extFreq  // instance

Timer frequency

C synopsis target-domain
struct TimerNull_Params {
      ...
    Types_FreqHz extFreq;
 
DETAILS

This value is used to convert timer ticks to real time units; seconds, milliseconds, etc.
 
config TimerNull_period  // instance

Period of a tick

C synopsis target-domain
struct TimerNull_Params {
      ...
    UInt32 period;

      ...
    ITimer_PeriodType periodType;
 
DETAILS

Instance Creation

C synopsis target-domain
TimerNull_Handle TimerNull_create(Int id, ITimer_FuncPtr tickFxn, const TimerNull_Params *params, Error_Block *eb);
// Allocate and initialize a new instance object and return its handle
 
Void TimerNull_construct(TimerNull_Struct *structP, Int id, ITimer_FuncPtr tickFxn, const TimerNull_Params *params);
// Initialize a new instance object inside the provided structure
ARGUMENTS

tickFxn — function that runs upon timer expiry.
params — per-instance config params, or NULL to select default values (target-domain only)
eb — active error-handling block, or NULL to select default policy (target-domain only)
DETAILS
Create could fail if timer peripheral is unavailable. To request any available timer use ANY as the id. TimerId's are logical ids. The family-specific implementations map the ids to physical peripherals.

C synopsis target-domain
Void TimerNull_delete(TimerNull_Handle *handleP);
// Finalize and free this previously allocated instance object, setting the referenced handle to NULL
 
Void TimerNull_destruct(TimerNull_Struct *structP);

TimerNull_setPeriod()  // instance

Set timer period specified in timer counts

C synopsis target-domain
Void TimerNull_setPeriod(TimerNull_Handle handle, UInt32 period);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created TimerNull instance object
period — period in timer counts
DETAILS
Timer_setPeriod() invokes Timer_stop() prior to setting the period and leaves the timer in the stopped state.
To dynamically change the period of a timer you must protect against re-entrancy by disabling interrupts. Use the following call sequence to guarantee proper results:
  // disable interrupts if an interrupt could lead to
  // another call to Timer_start().
  key = Hwi_disable();
  Timer_setPeriod(period);
  Timer_start();
  Hwi_restore(key);
ITimer implementation must support UInt32 and use pre-scalars whenever necessary
SIDE EFFECTS
Calls Timer_stop(), and disables the timer's interrupt.
 
TimerNull_setPeriodMicroSecs()  // instance

Set timer period specified in microseconds

C synopsis target-domain
Bool TimerNull_setPeriodMicroSecs(TimerNull_Handle handle, UInt32 microsecs);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created TimerNull instance object
period — period in microseconds
DETAILS
A best-effort method will be used to set the period register. There might be a slight rounding error based on resolution of timer period register. If the timer frequency cannot support the requested period, i.e. the timer period register cannot support the requested period, then this function returns false.
Timer_setPeriodMicroSecs() invokes Timer_stop() prior to setting the period and leaves the timer in the stopped state.
To dynamically change the period of a timer you must protect against re-entrancy by disabling interrupts. Use the following call sequence to guarantee proper results:
  // disable interrupts if an interrupt could lead to
  // another call to Timer_start().
  key = Hwi_disable();
  Timer_setPeriodMicroSecs(period);
  Timer_start();
  Hwi_restore(key);
 
TimerNull_start()  // instance

Reload and start the timer

C synopsis target-domain
Void TimerNull_start(TimerNull_Handle handle);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created TimerNull instance object
DETAILS
Thread safety must be observed when using the start and stop APIs to avoid possible miss- configuration of the timers and unintended behaviors. To protect against re-entrancy, surround the start/stop invocations with Hwi_disable() and Hwi_restore() calls:
  // disable interrupts if an interrupt could lead to
  // another call to Timer_start().
  key = Hwi_disable();
  Timer_stop();
  ...
  Timer_start();
  Hwi_restore(key);
SIDE EFFECTS
Enables the timer's interrupt.
 
TimerNull_stop()  // instance

Stop the timer

C synopsis target-domain
Void TimerNull_stop(TimerNull_Handle handle);
 
ARGUMENTS
handle — handle of a previously-created TimerNull instance object
DETAILS
Thread safety must be observed when using the start and stop APIs to avoid possible miss- configuration of the timers and unintended behaviors. To protect against re-entrancy, surround the start/stop invocations with Hwi_disable() and Hwi_restore() calls:
  // disable interrupts if an interrupt could lead to
  // another call to Timer_start().
  key = Hwi_disable();
  Timer_stop();
  ...
  Timer_start();
  Hwi_restore(key);
SIDE EFFECTS
Disables the timer's interrupt.
