PARPORT_WAIT_PERIPHE(9) Parallel Port Devices PARPORT_WAIT_PERIPHE(9)NAMEparport_wait_peripheral - wait for status lines to change in 35ms
SYNOPSIS
int parport_wait_peripheral(struct parport * port, unsigned char mask,
unsigned char result);
ARGUMENTS
port
port to watch
mask
status lines to watch
result
desired values of chosen status lines
DESCRIPTION
This function waits until the masked status lines have the desired
values, or until 35ms have elapsed (see IEEE 1284-1994 page 24 to 25
for why this value in particular is hardcoded). The mask and result
parameters are bitmasks, with the bits defined by the constants in
parport.h: PARPORT_STATUS_BUSY, and so on.
The port is polled quickly to start off with, in anticipation of a fast
response from the peripheral. This fast polling time is configurable
(using /proc), and defaults to 500usec. If the timeout for this port
(see parport_set_timeout) is zero, the fast polling time is 35ms, and
this function does not call schedule.
If the timeout for this port is non-zero, after the fast polling fails
it uses parport_wait_event to wait for up to 10ms, waking up if an
interrupt occurs.
