Symbol Timer Functions
void	halInternalStartSymbolTimer (void)
	Initializes the symbol timer. When a dedicated symbol timer peripheral exists (e.g. EM2xx, EM3xx) this initialization is generally performed directly by the PHY, so this routine may be a no-op.

uint32_t	halStackGetInt32uSymbolTick (void)
	Returns the current symbol time in symbol ticks (units are platform-dependent, but typically on the order of microseconds).

bool	halStackInt32uSymbolTickGTorEqual (uint32_t st1, uint32_t st2)
	Returns true if symbol tick time st1 is greater than symbol tick time st2, as determined by half the range of the symbol timer. Can only account for 1 wrap around between st1 and st2 before it is wrong.

uint32_t	halStackGetSymbolTicksPerSecond (void)
	Obtains the number of symtol timer ticks in one second of real time. Can be used for conversion between real time and symbol ticks.

MAC Timer Support Functions
These functions are used for MAC layer timing and symbol-based delays. Applications should not directly call these functions. They are used internally by the operation of the stack.
enum	EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t { EM_HAL_SYMBOL_DELAY_CHANNEL_A , EM_HAL_SYMBOL_DELAY_CHANNEL_B , EM_HAL_SYMBOL_DELAY_CHANNELS }
	Specifies two independent channels for symbol delay operations.

typedef void(*	EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t ) ( EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t delayChan)
	Specifies the callback API triggered when the symbol timer channel expires.

uint32_t	halStackOrderSymbolDelay ( EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t delayChan, EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t callback, uint32_t microseconds)
	Sets up a delay timer to call the indicated interrupt-context callback when it expires.

void	halStackCancelSymbolDelay ( EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t delayChan, EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t callback)
	Cancels the delay set up by an earlier halStackOrderSymbolDelay() call.

void	halStackOrderInt16uSymbolDelayA (uint16_t symbols)
	Sets up a timer and calls an interrupt-context callback when it expires.

void	halStackCancelSymbolDelayA (void)
	Cancels the timer set up by halStackOrderInt16uSymbolDelayA() .

void	halStackSymbolDelayAIsr (void)
	This is the interrupt level callback into the stack that is called when the timers set by halStackOrderInt16uSymbolDelayA expire.

Detailed Description

See symbol-timer.h for source code.

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t) ( EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t delayChan)

void halInternalStartSymbolTimer ( void )

void halStackCancelSymbolDelay	(	EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t	`delayChan,`
		EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t	`callback`
	)

Parameters

`delayChan`	The symbol timer delay channel specified in the earlier halStackOrderSymbolDelay() call.
`callback`	The callback specified in the earlier halStackOrderSymbolDelay() call.

Note: If cancelled prior to the delay expiring, the original callback will not be called.

void halStackCancelSymbolDelayA ( void )

uint32_t halStackGetInt32uSymbolTick ( void )

Returns: The least significant 32 bits of the current symbol time in symbol timer ticks.

uint32_t halStackGetSymbolTicksPerSecond ( void )

bool halStackInt32uSymbolTickGTorEqual	(	uint32_t	`st1,`
		uint32_t	`st2`
	)

void halStackOrderInt16uSymbolDelayA ( uint16_t symbols )

Used by the MAC to request an interrupt callback at a specified amount of time in the future.

Parameters

symbols The delay, in symbols.

uint32_t halStackOrderSymbolDelay	(	EmHalSymbolDelayChannel_t	`delayChan,`
		EmHalSymbolDelayCallback_t	`callback,`
		uint32_t	`microseconds`
	)

Used by the MAC to request an interrupt callback at a specified number of symbol timer ticks in the future.

Parameters

`delayChan`	The symbol timer delay channel to use.
`callback`	The callback to call in interrupt context when the delay expires. If NULL, the timer is not actually started, but the return value is accurate; useful for polling.
`microseconds`	The delay, in units of microseconds.

Returns: The absolute symbol tick value of the delay (usually in the future).

Note: Internal conversion of microseconds to symbol ticks will use a rounding function.; No minimum delay is enforced; short delays may trigger the callback immediately, before this routine returns to its caller.
