This is meant as a substitute for sys_clock_timeout_end_calc() Current sys_clock_timeout_end_calc() usage opens up many bug possibilities due to the actual timeout evaluation's open-coded nature. Issue ##50611 is one example. - Some users store the returned value in a signed variable, others in an unsigned one, making the comparison with UINT64_MAX (corresponding to K_FOREVER) wrong in the signed case. - Some users compute the difference and store that in a signed variable to compare against 0 which still doesn't work with K_FOREVER. And when this difference is used as a timeout argument then the K_FOREVER nature of the timeout is lost. - Some users complexify their code by special-casing K_NO_WAIT and K_FOREVER inline which is bad for both code readability and binary size. Let's introduce a better abstraction to deal with absolute timepoints with an opaque type to be used with a well-defined API. The word "timeout" was avoided in the naming on purpose as the timeout namespace is quite crowded already and it is preferable to make a distinction between relative time periods (timeouts) and absolute time values (timepoints). A few stacks are also adjusted as they were too tight on X86. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <npitre@baylibre.com> |
