Struct Metadata 

pub struct Metadata { /* private fields */ }

Metadata associated with a task.

Implementations

impl Metadata

pub fn for_current_task() -> impl Future<Output = &'static Self>

Get the metadata for the current task.

You can use this to read or modify the current task’s metadata.

This function is async just to get access to the current async context. It returns instantly, it does not block/yield.

pub fn priority(&self) -> u8

Get this task’s priority.

pub fn set_priority(&self, priority: u8)

Set this task’s priority.

pub fn deadline(&self) -> u64

Get this task’s deadline.

pub fn set_deadline(&self, instant_ticks: u64)

Set this task’s deadline.

This method does NOT check whether the deadline has already passed.

pub fn unset_deadline(&self)

Remove this task’s deadline. This brings it back to the defaul where it’s not scheduled ahead of other tasks.

pub fn increment_deadline(&self, duration_ticks: u64)

Set the this task’s deadline increment_ticks from the previous deadline.

This deadline is saturated to the max tick value.

Note that by default (unless otherwise set), tasks start life with the deadline not set, which means this method will have no effect.

Analogous to one increment of Ticker::every().next().

Returns the deadline that was set.
