hwitag_find_clkfreq()
QNX SDP8.0C Library ReferenceAPIDeveloper
Find the clock source for a device
Synopsis:
#include <drvr/hwinfo.h>
long hwitag_find_clkfreq( unsigned hwi_off,
unsigned *clk_idx);
Arguments:
- hwi_off
- The offset into the hwinfo section of the system page for the device, which you can get by calling hwi_find_device().
- clk_idx
- NULL, or a pointer to a location that holds the index of the clock frequency that you want to find; see below.
Library:
libdrvr

Description:
You can use hwitag_find_clkfreq() to find one or more clock sources associated with the device at hwi_off in the hwinfo section of the system page.
Some devices contain clock sources vectors. You can retrieve the base frequency for all of them by using the clk_idx parameter as follows:
- On the first call, set *clk_idx to 0. The first clock frequency (if one exists) is returned.
- You can then continue to call hwitag_find_clkfreq() with the same arguments until the function returns -1.
- If you know that there's more than one clock source for the specified device, you can set *clk_idx to the number of the desired clock. If that clock exists, hwitag_find_clkfreq() returns the base frequency. For example, to obtain the third clock frequency for hwi_off, set *clk_idx to 2 (base-0 indexing applies).
- If you're interested only in the first clock, you can pass NULL for clk_idx (which is the same as setting *clk_idx to 0).
Returns:
The clock source frequency in Hz, or -1 if the clock source wasn't found.
