This should be set to 1 for calls from the step interrupt. Short requests then return 1 and do not schedule a timer interrupt. The calling code usually wants to handle this case. Calls from elsewhere should set it to 0. In this case a timer interrupt is always scheduled. At the risk that if this scheduling is too short, the timer doesn't delay the requested time, but up to a full timer counter overflow ( = 65536 / F_CPU = 3 to 4 milliseconds). \return A flag whether the requested time was too short to allow scheduling an interrupt. This is meaningful for ACCELERATION_TEMPORAL, where requested delays can be zero or even negative. In this case, the calling code should repeat the stepping code immediately and also assume the timer to not change his idea of when the last step happened. Strategy of this timer is to schedule timer interrupts not starting at the time of the call, but starting at the time of the previous timer interrupt fired. This ignores the processing time taken in the step interrupt so far, offering smooth and even step distribution. Flipside of this coin is, schedules issued at an arbitrary time can result in drastically wrong delays. See also discussion of parameter check_short and the return value. This enables the step interrupt, but also disables interrupts globally. So, if you use it from inside the step interrupt, make sure to do so as late as possible. If you use it from outside the step interrupt, do a sei() after it to make the interrupt actually fire. */ uint8_t timer_set(int32_t delay, uint8_t check_short) { uint16_t step_start = 0; #ifdef ACCELERATION_TEMPORAL uint16_t current_time; #endif /* ACCELERATION_TEMPORAL */ // An interrupt would make all our timing calculations invalid, // so stop that here. cli(); CLI_SEI_BUG_MEMORY_BARRIER(); // Assume all steps belong to one move.
