Hello,

,----
| int rtdm_task_sleep (uint64_t delay);
| int rtdm_task_sleep_until (uint64_t wakeup_time);
`----

wouldn't it make sense to return 0 on success and in error case the
number of nanoseconds that are remaining to the originally requested
sleep period just as the Linux sleeping function behave?

Of course that would introduce an incompatibility to current code.

Regards,
  Bernhard
