To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, The timeout(,,x) function is used to call a function after x clock ticks. where hz is the clock frequency. I guess usually the value of hz is 100. so if we say timeout(, , 1) then the scheduled function is called after 1 clock tick (= 1 milli sec). But for our project we need a timer resolution of 1 micro sec. Is there any other function to do it ? I am new to Free Bsd, so it would be of great help if someone guides me on this. thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get Yahoo!
