<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We are thinking of writing a piece of code that takes some time to run (it would be amazing if it takes around 2 secs to run on hardware, but we would be happy with something that takes a few milliseconds as well). <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We want to write a code that is context switch safe (so, we can't simply check the time before a loop, run an infinite loop that keeps checking current time and stops after a few seconds - because this logic would fail
if there happens a context switch inside the loop and the task gets the control back after a few seconds). We also don't want to do a wake_after() since we want the task to be running on the cpu during the entire time (it is okay if the task gets preempted due
to a higher priority process), and not voluntarily giving the control to some other task.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
