hi,dear all:

     I have a question about l4_ipc_sleep()! I want to make a stop between two
ipc operation, so i used l4_ipc_sleep(), but it did not work!
     The code is :

...
static void sleep(unsigned exp)
{
	l4_ipc_sleep(l4_ipc_timeout(1,exp,1,exp));
}
...

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
...
	for(;;)
	{
		...	
		sleep(4);
	}

	return 0;
}

I think sleep(4) should make a stop about 4 seconds, but the the call
returned immediately. What's the problem in my code?
thanks for your help!

best wishes!
