nanosleep

NANOSLEEP(2)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						      NANOSLEEP(2)

NAME

       nanosleep - pause execution for a specified time

SYNOPSIS

       #include <time.h>

       int nanosleep(const struct timespec *req, struct timespec *rem);

DESCRIPTION

       nanosleep  delays  the  execution  of the program for at least the time specified in *req.  The function can return earlier if a signal has
       been delivered to the process. In this case, it returns -1, sets errno to EINTR, and writes the remaining time into the	structure  pointed
       to by rem unless rem is NULL.  The value of *rem can then be used to call nanosleep again and complete the specified pause.

       The structure timespec is used to specify intervals of time with nanosecond precision. It is specified in <time.h> and has the form

	      struct timespec
	      {
		      time_t  tv_sec;	      /* seconds */
		      long    tv_nsec;	      /* nanoseconds */
	      };

       The value of the nanoseconds field must be in the range 0 to 999 999 999.

       Compared  to  sleep(3)  and  usleep(3),	nanosleep has the advantage of not affecting any signals, it is standardized by POSIX, it provides
       higher timing resolution, and it allows to continue a sleep that has been interrupted by a signal more easily.

ERRORS

       In case of an error or exception, the nanosleep system call returns -1 instead of 0 and sets errno to one of the following values:

       EINTR  The pause has been interrupted by a non-blocked signal that was delivered to the process. The remaining sleep time has been  written
	      into *rem so that the process can easily call nanosleep again and continue with the pause.

       EINVAL The value in the tv_nsec field was not in the range 0 to 999 999 999 or tv_sec was negative.

BUGS

       The  current  implementation  of  nanosleep  is based on the normal kernel timer mechanism, which has a resolution of 1/HZ s (i.e, 10 ms on
       Linux/i386 and 1 ms on Linux/Alpha).  Therefore, nanosleep pauses always for at least the specified time, however it can take up to  10	ms
       longer  than  specified	until the process becomes runnable again. For the same reason, the value returned in case of a delivered signal in
       *rem is usually rounded to the next larger multiple of 1/HZ s.

       As some applications require much more precise pauses (e.g., in order to control some time-critical hardware), nanosleep is also capable of
       short  high-precision  pauses.  If the process is scheduled under a real-time policy like SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR, then pauses of up to 2 ms
       will be performed as busy waits with microsecond precision.
