DELAY(9r)																 DELAY(9r)

NAME

       DELAY - General: Delays the calling routine a specified number of microseconds

SYNOPSIS

       void DELAY(
	       int Specifies n );

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the number of microseconds for the calling process to spin.

DESCRIPTION

       The  DELAY  routine  delays  the  calling  routine  a  specified  number of microseconds.  DELAY spins, waiting for the specified number of
       microseconds to pass before continuing execution.

       For example, the following code results in a 10000-microsecond (10-millisecond) delay:

	.
	.
	.
	DELAY(10000);
	.
	.
	.

       The range of delays is system dependent, due to its relation to the granularity of the system clock. The system defines the number of clock
       ticks per second in the hz variable. Specifying any value smaller than 1 Hz to the DELAY routine results in an unpredictable delay. For any
       delay value, the actual delay may vary by plus or minus one clock tick.

       Using the DELAY routine is discouraged because the processor will be consumed for the specified time interval and therefore is  unavailable
       to  service other processes. In cases where kernel modules need timing mechanisms, you should use the sleep and timeout routines instead of
       the DELAY routine.  The most common usage of the DELAY routine is in the system boot path. Using DELAY in the boot path is often acceptable
       because there are no other processes in contention for the processor.

RETURN VALUES

       None

NAME

       distccmon-text - Displays current compilation jobs in text form.

SYNTAX

       distccmon-text [DELAY]

DESCRIPTION

       Displays current compilation jobs in text form.	distccmon-text must be run on the client machine, with the same setting for DISTCC_DIR (or
       home directory) as the user running the distcc client.

OPTIONS

       DELAY  repeatedly updates after delay (fractional) seconds.

OUTPUT FORMAT

       The output of distccmon-text contains one line for each job currently being compiled.   Each line contains the following columns:

       PID    ID of the distcc client process.

       STATE  Identifies the phase of operation.  In order these  may  be  "Startup",  "Blocked",  "Connected",  "Preprocess",	"Conect",  "Send",
	      "Receive" and "Done".

       FILE   The input filename, if known.

       HOST[SLOT]
	      The compile hostname.  May be followed in square brackets by the slot index for that host.

       When a delay is specified, each block of output is terminated by a blank line.

EXAMPLES

       To display currently active jobs (updated every second):

	      distccmon-text 1

       To display the status once:

	      distccmon-text
