linux应用程序中的延时和定时器

笔记:

在linux应用程序中延时有sleep()、msleep()和usleep()函数之类的延时,也有如下形式的延时:

    struct timeval delay;
    delay.tv_sec = sleepSecond;
    delay.tv_usec = 0;
    select( 0, NULL, NULL, NULL, &delay );

但是基本上都是基于进程休眠的,好像没有循环等待的延时,有待证实,目前没发现。


考虑到一个问题,如果定时发送信号,执行相应一个信号处理函数时,该函数还么有执行完成,另一个信号又来了,怎么处理呢?答案是等待前面一个信号处理完成。

定时器配合kill函数一起使用,可以满足某些想立即执行又要有周期执行相应函数的特殊要求,如下:
