Re: timer functions for non-kernel

mode. You can configure this with CYGSEM_KERNEL_SCHED_TIMESLICE.


I know; what I was trying to say is that to me CYGPKG_KERNEL implies threaded while drv_api implies non-threaded apps, but nothing about interrupts. Certainly, use of one or the other is an indication of whether ints will be used or not, but it is not an enforced rule. Your points that even threaded apps can run w/o interrupts seem to emphasize this distinction even more.


Anyway I will use the functions I sent, since they make sense for the project I am working on, I just thought they would be generally useful.
