DESCRIPTION
The sbintime_t type is a Q32.32 fixed point representation of time. The high 32-bit integral bits specify the number of seconds, and the low 32-bit fractional bits specify the sub-second portion. Since the lower 32 bits are counting with a base unit of 1/2^32 seconds, ‘(sbintime_t)0x1’ is just under 250 picoseconds.
All of the conversion functions are designed to do the conversion without large truncation errors that are possible with naive math.
- sbintime_getsec(sbt)
-
Return the whole number of seconds from a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument.
- bttosbt(bt)
-
Convert a struct bintime specified by the bt argument to a sbintime_t.
- sbttobt(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to a struct bintime.
- sbttons(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to the number of nanoseconds.
- nstosbt(ns)
-
Convert the number of nanoseconds specified by the ns argument to a sbintime_t.
- sbttous(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to the number of microseconds.
- ustosbt(us)
-
Convert the number of microseconds specified by the us argument to a sbintime_t.
- sbttoms(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to the number of milliseconds.
- mstosbt(ms)
-
Convert the number of milliseconds specified by the ms argument to a sbintime_t.
- sbttots(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to a struct timespec.
- tstosbt(ts)
-
Convert a struct timespec specified by the ts argument to a sbintime_t.
- sbttotv(sbt)
-
Convert a sbintime_t specified by the sbt argument to a struct timeval.
- tvtosbt(tv)
-
Convert a struct timeval specified by the tv argument to a sbintime_t.
