-/**
- * @file include/gtimer/gtimer.h
- * @brief GTIMER GFX User Timer subsystem header file.
- *
- * @addtogroup GTIMER
- *
- * @details The reason why ChibiOS/GFX has it's own timer abstraction is because
- * virtual timers provided by ChibiOS/RT are interrupt context only.
- * While great for what they are designed for, they make coding of the input
- * drivers much more complex.
- * For non-performance critical drivers like these input drivers, it would also
- * hog an in-ordinate amount of critical (interrupt locked) system time.
- * This contrary to the goals of a real-time operating system. So a user-land
- * (thread based) timer mechanism is also required.
- *
- * @pre GFX_USE_GTIMER must be set to TRUE in your gfxconf.h
- *
- * @{

- * @param[in] param The parameter to pass to the callback function
- * @param[in] periodic Is the timer a periodic timer? FALSE is a once-only timer.
- * @param[in] millisec The timer period. The following special values are allowed:
- * TIME_IMMEDIATE causes the callback function to be called asap.
- * A periodic timer with this value will fire once only.
- * TIME_INFINITE never timeout (unless triggered by gtimerJab or gtimerJabI)
- *
- * @note If the timer is already active its properties are updated with the new parameters.
- * The current period will be immediately canceled (without the callback function being
- * called) and the timer will be restart with the new timer properties.
- * @note The callback function should be careful not to over-run the thread stack.
- * Define a new value for the macro GTIME_THREAD_STACK_SIZE if you want to
- * change the default size.
- * @note The callback function should return as quickly as possible as all
- * timer callbacks are performed by a single thread. If a callback function
- * takes too long it could affect the timer response for other timers.
- * @note A timer callback function is not a replacement for a dedicated thread if the
- * function wants to perform computationally expensive stuff.
- * @note As the callback function is called on GTIMER's thread, the function must make sure it uses
- * appropriate synchronisation controls such as semaphores or mutexes around any data
- * structures it shares with other threads such as the main application thread.
