Get the timers owned by the process associated with the file descriptor.
#include <sys/procfs.h> #define DCMD_PROC_TIMERS32 (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 23, procfs_timer32)) #define DCMD_PROC_TIMERS64 (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 23, procfs_timer64)) #define DCMD_PROC_TIMERS (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 23, procfs_timer))
The arguments to devctl() are:
Argument | Value |
---|---|
filedes | A file descriptor for the process. |
dcmd | DCMD_PROC_TIMERS |
dev_data_ptr | NULL, or an array of procfs_timer structures |
n_bytes | 0, or the size of the array |
dev_info_ptr | A pointer to an integer where the number of timers can be stored |
Call this the first time with an argument of NULL to get the number of timers:
devctl( fd, DCMD_PROC_TIMERS, NULL, 0, &n);
Next, allocate a buffer that's large enough to hold a procfs_timer structure for each timer, and pass it to another devctl() call:
my_buffer = (procfs_timer *) malloc( sizeof(procfs_timer) * n; if ( my_buffer == NULL ) { /* Not enough memory. */ } devctl( fd, DCMD_PROC_TIMERS, my_buffer, sizeof(procfs_timer) * n, &dummy);
The procfs_timer structure is the same as the debug_timer_t structure, which is defined for 64-bit architectures as follows in <sys/debug.h>:
typedef struct _debug_timer64 { timer_t id; unsigned spare; struct _timer_info32 __info; struct _timer_info64 info; } debug_timer64_t;
For information about the _timer_info structure, see the entry for TimerInfo() in the QNX Neutrino C Library Reference, and the section on DCMD_PROC_INFO in the appendix about the /procfs filesystem in The QNX Neutrino Cookbook.
