Summary | 0001781: Factual error due to mis-wording with regard to timed wait functions? | ||||
Description | At the aforementioned line range, this is said: > It was decided that the features of CLOCK_MONOTONIC are not as critical to these functions as they are to pthread_cond_timedwait(). The pthread_cond_timedwait() function is given a relative timeout; the timeout may represent a deadline for an event. When these functions are given relative timeouts, the timeouts are typically for error recovery purposes and need not be so precise. The `pthread_cond_timedwait()` is specified with absolute time-outs, and the later sentence doesn't make sense with the earilier parts of the paragraph. It probably should say: > the *other* function is given an absolute timeout; the timeout may represent a deadline for an event. When other functions are given relative timeouts ... typically for error recovery ... | ||||
Desired Action | Clarify the intended wording. BTW, my previous reported issue should probably be moved to Issue7+TC2 as well, I forgot to select the correct project. | ||||

My bad, it (probably should) say: > the pthread_cond_timedwait() function is given an absolute timeout; the timeout may represent a deadline for an event. When *other* functions are given relative timeouts ... typically for error recovery ... |
