nanosleep - high resolution sleep
#include <zircon/syscalls.h> zx_status_t zx_nanosleep(zx_time_t deadline);
nanosleep() suspends the calling thread execution until deadline passes on ZX_CLOCK_MONOTONIC. A deadline value less than or equal to 0 immediately yields the thread.
To sleep for a duration, use zx_deadline_after and the ZX_<time-unit> helpers:
#include <zircon/syscalls.h> // zx_deadline_after, zx_nanosleep #include <zircon/types.h> // ZX_MSEC et al. // Sleep 50 milliseconds zx_nanosleep(zx_deadline_after(ZX_MSEC(50)));
The nanosleep duration has 10% late slack with a minimum slack time of 1 microsecond and a maximum slack time of 1 second. This slack time is the amount of additional time that the thread might sleep before being rescheduled. For example, a thread that requests a nanosleep with a duration of 1 second will have a slack time of .1 second. This means that the thread will sleep anywhere between 1 and 1.1 seconds. See timer_set for a more in-depth description of slack.
The slack is included so the operating system can coalesce sleeps for performance and energy reasons. If more precise timing is needed, it is recommended to use a timer.
None.
nanosleep() always returns ZX_OK.
