Hi,
When using kernel a timeout, the duration is passed using an integer
uint64_t in nanoseconds , it works fine excepted the fact that the value
seems to be limited to 32 bits (more than 2 seconds). I want to extend the
timeout to 10 seconds… how can I do that ? I’m using QNX 6.1 on a x86
computer.
Thank you very much for your help!

The timer_timeout() call appears to take a “stuct timespec” which handles
seconds. Do you have some example code of what you are trying to do?

You might be having problems with compiler or types on your input.
The following program:
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <sys/neutrino.h>
int main()
{
int t1, t2;
struct sigevent ev;
uint64_t to;
int chid;
int ret, serrno;
to = 1010001000*1000LL;
chid = ChannelCreate(0);
ev.sigev_notify = SIGEV_UNBLOCK;
t1 = time(NULL);
TimerTimeout(CLOCK_REALTIME, _NTO_TIMEOUT_RECEIVE, &ev, &to, NULL);
ret = MsgReceive(chid, NULL, 0, NULL);
serrno = errno;
t2 = time(NULL);
printf(“receive returned %d, errno %d: %s\n”, ret, errno, strerror(errno));
printf(“t1 is %d, t2 is %d, blocked for: %d seconds\n”,t1, t2, (t2-t1) );
return 0;
}
Produced:
receive returned -1, errno 260: Connection timed out
t1 is 1024949902, t2 is 1024949912, blocked for: 10 seconds
That is, it slept for 10 seconds.
