\brief Create and control timer and timer callback functions.
\details
In addition to the \ref CMSIS_RTOS_Wait CMSIS-RTOS also supports virtual timer objects. These timer objects can trigger the execution of a function (not threads). When a timer expires, a callback function is executed to run associated code with the timer. Each timer can be configured as a one-shot or a periodic timer. A periodic timer repeats its operation until it is \ref osTimerDelete "deleted" or \ref osTimerStop "stopped". All timers can be \ref osTimerStart "started, restarted", or \ref osTimerStop "stopped".

\note Timer management functions cannot be called from \ref CMSIS_RTOS_ISR_Calls "Interrupt Service Routines".

The figure below shows the behavior of a periodic timer. For one-shot timers, the timer stops after execution of the callback function.

Working with Timers
--------------------
The following steps are required to use a software timer:
-# Define the timers:
\code
osTimerId_t one_shot_id, periodic_id;
\endcode
-# Define callback functions:
\code
static void one_shot_Callback (void *argument) {
  int32_t arg = (int32_t)argument; // cast back argument '0' 
  // do something, i.e. set thread/event flags
}
static void periodic_Callback (void *argument) {
  int32_t arg = (int32_t)argument; // cast back argument '5'
  // do something, i.e. set thread/event flags
}
\endcode
-# Instantiate and start the timers:
\code
// creates a one-shot timer:
one_shot_id = osTimerNew(one_shot_Callback, osTimerOnce, (void *)0, NULL);     // (void*)0 is passed as an argument
                                                                               // to the callback function
// creates a periodic timer:
periodic_id = osTimerNew(periodic_Callback, osTimerPeriodic, (void *)5, NULL); // (void*)5 is passed as an argument
                                                                               // to the callback function
osTimerStart(one_shot_id, 500U);
osTimerStart(periodic_id, 1500U);
 
// start the one-shot timer again after it has triggered the first time:
osTimerStart(one_shot_id, 500U);
 
// when timers are not needed any longer free the resources:
osTimerDelete(one_shot_id);
osTimerDelete(periodic_id);
\endcode

The \b osTimerType_t specifies the timer type as repeating (periodic) or one-shot. Used in the function \ref osTimerNew.

The timer is not automatically restarted once it has elapsed. It can be restarted manually using \ref osTimerStart as needed.

The timer repeats automatically and triggers the callback continuously while running, see \ref osTimerStart and \ref osTimerStop.

The timer callback function is called every time the timer elapses.

The callback might be executed either in a dedicated timer thread or in interrupt context. Thus it is recommended to only
use ISR callable functions from the timer callback.

Specifies the following attributes for the \ref osTimerNew function.

/**
\fn osTimerId_t osTimerNew (osTimerFunc_t func, osTimerType_t type, void *argument, const osTimerAttr_t *attr)
\details
The function \b osTimerNew creates an one-shot or periodic timer and associates it with a callback function with \a argument.
The timer is in stopped state until it is started with \ref osTimerStart. The function can be safely called before the RTOS
is started (call to \ref osKernelStart), but not before it is initialized (call to \ref osKernelInitialize).

The function \b osTimerNew returns the pointer to the timer object identifier or \token{NULL} in case of an error.

\note This function \b cannot be called from \ref CMSIS_RTOS_ISR_Calls "Interrupt Service Routines".
