The timer support.

Structs

• Jiffies
  Jiffies is a term used to denote the units of time measurement by the kernel.

Constants

• TIMER_FREQ
  The timer frequency (Hz). Here we choose 1000Hz since 1000Hz is easier for unit conversion and convenient for timer. What’s more, the frequency cannot be set too high or too low, 1000Hz is a modest choice.

Functions

• register_callback
  Registers a function that will be executed during the system timer interruption.
