* TimerHandle_t xTimerCreate( const char * const pcTimerName,

* void * pvTimerID,
* TimerCallbackFunction_t pxCallbackFunction );
*
* Creates a new software timer instance, and returns a handle by which the
* created software timer can be referenced.
*
* Internally, within the FreeRTOS implementation, software timers use a block
* of memory, in which the timer data structure is stored. If a software timer
* is created using xTimerCreate() then the required memory is automatically
* dynamically allocated inside the xTimerCreate() function. (see
* https://www.FreeRTOS.org/a00111.html). If a software timer is created using
* xTimerCreateStatic() then the application writer must provide the memory that
* will get used by the software timer. xTimerCreateStatic() therefore allows a
* software timer to be created without using any dynamic memory allocation.
*
* Timers are created in the dormant state. The xTimerStart(), xTimerReset(),
* xTimerStartFromISR(), xTimerResetFromISR(), xTimerChangePeriod() and
* xTimerChangePeriodFromISR() API functions can all be used to transition a
* timer into the active state.
*
* @param pcTimerName A text name that is assigned to the timer. This is done
* purely to assist debugging. The kernel itself only ever references a timer
* by its handle, and never by its name.
*
* @param xTimerPeriodInTicks The timer period. The time is defined in tick
* periods so the constant portTICK_PERIOD_MS can be used to convert a time that
* has been specified in milliseconds. For example, if the timer must expire
* after 100 ticks, then xTimerPeriodInTicks should be set to 100.
* Alternatively, if the timer must expire after 500ms, then xPeriod can be set
* to ( 500 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS ) provided configTICK_RATE_HZ is less than or
* equal to 1000. Time timer period must be greater than 0.
*
* @param xAutoReload If xAutoReload is set to pdTRUE then the timer will
* expire repeatedly with a frequency set by the xTimerPeriodInTicks parameter.
* If xAutoReload is set to pdFALSE then the timer will be a one-shot timer and
* enter the dormant state after it expires.
*
* @param pvTimerID An identifier that is assigned to the timer being created.
* Typically this would be used in the timer callback function to identify which
* timer expired when the same callback function is assigned to more than one
* timer.
*
* @param pxCallbackFunction The function to call when the timer expires.
* Callback functions must have the prototype defined by TimerCallbackFunction_t,
* which is "void vCallbackFunction( TimerHandle_t xTimer );".
*
* @return If the timer is successfully created then a handle to the newly
* created timer is returned. If the timer cannot be created because there is
* insufficient FreeRTOS heap remaining to allocate the timer
* structures then NULL is returned.
*
* Example usage:
* @verbatim
* #define NUM_TIMERS 5
*
* // An array to hold handles to the created timers.
* TimerHandle_t xTimers[ NUM_TIMERS ];
*
* // An array to hold a count of the number of times each timer expires.
* int32_t lExpireCounters[ NUM_TIMERS ] = { 0 };
*
* // Define a callback function that will be used by multiple timer instances.
* // The callback function does nothing but count the number of times the
* // associated timer expires, and stop the timer once the timer has expired
* // 10 times.
* void vTimerCallback( TimerHandle_t pxTimer )
* {
* int32_t lArrayIndex;
* const int32_t xMaxExpiryCountBeforeStopping = 10;
*
* // Optionally do something if the pxTimer parameter is NULL.
* configASSERT( pxTimer );
*
* // Which timer expired?
* lArrayIndex = ( int32_t ) pvTimerGetTimerID( pxTimer );
*
* // Increment the number of times that pxTimer has expired.
* lExpireCounters[ lArrayIndex ] += 1;
*
* // If the timer has expired 10 times then stop it from running.
* if( lExpireCounters[ lArrayIndex ] == xMaxExpiryCountBeforeStopping )
* {

*
* Creates a new software timer instance, and returns a handle by which the
* created software timer can be referenced.
*
* Internally, within the FreeRTOS implementation, software timers use a block
* of memory, in which the timer data structure is stored. If a software timer
* is created using xTimerCreate() then the required memory is automatically
* dynamically allocated inside the xTimerCreate() function. (see
* https://www.FreeRTOS.org/a00111.html). If a software timer is created using
* xTimerCreateStatic() then the application writer must provide the memory that
* will get used by the software timer. xTimerCreateStatic() therefore allows a
* software timer to be created without using any dynamic memory allocation.
*
* Timers are created in the dormant state. The xTimerStart(), xTimerReset(),
* xTimerStartFromISR(), xTimerResetFromISR(), xTimerChangePeriod() and
* xTimerChangePeriodFromISR() API functions can all be used to transition a
* timer into the active state.
*
* @param pcTimerName A text name that is assigned to the timer. This is done
* purely to assist debugging. The kernel itself only ever references a timer
* by its handle, and never by its name.
*
* @param xTimerPeriodInTicks The timer period. The time is defined in tick
* periods so the constant portTICK_PERIOD_MS can be used to convert a time that
* has been specified in milliseconds. For example, if the timer must expire
* after 100 ticks, then xTimerPeriodInTicks should be set to 100.
* Alternatively, if the timer must expire after 500ms, then xPeriod can be set
* to ( 500 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS ) provided configTICK_RATE_HZ is less than or
* equal to 1000. The timer period must be greater than 0.
*
* @param xAutoReload If xAutoReload is set to pdTRUE then the timer will
* expire repeatedly with a frequency set by the xTimerPeriodInTicks parameter.
* If xAutoReload is set to pdFALSE then the timer will be a one-shot timer and
* enter the dormant state after it expires.
*
* @param pvTimerID An identifier that is assigned to the timer being created.
* Typically this would be used in the timer callback function to identify which
* timer expired when the same callback function is assigned to more than one
* timer.
*
* @param pxCallbackFunction The function to call when the timer expires.
* Callback functions must have the prototype defined by TimerCallbackFunction_t,
* which is "void vCallbackFunction( TimerHandle_t xTimer );".
*
* @param pxTimerBuffer Must point to a variable of type StaticTimer_t, which
* will be then be used to hold the software timer's data structures, removing
* the need for the memory to be allocated dynamically.
*
* @return If the timer is created then a handle to the created timer is
* returned. If pxTimerBuffer was NULL then NULL is returned.
*
* Example usage:
* @verbatim
*
* // The buffer used to hold the software timer's data structure.
* static StaticTimer_t xTimerBuffer;
*
* // A variable that will be incremented by the software timer's callback
* // function.

* @param xTimer The handle of the timer being stopped.
*
* @param pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken The timer service/daemon task spends most
* of its time in the Blocked state, waiting for messages to arrive on the timer

* command queue, so has the potential to transition the timer service/daemon
* task out of the Blocked state. If calling xTimerStopFromISR() causes the
* timer service/daemon task to leave the Blocked state, and the timer service/
* daemon task has a priority equal to or greater than the currently executing
* task (the task that was interrupted), then *pxHigherPriorityTaskWoken will
* get set to pdTRUE internally within the xTimerStopFromISR() function. If
* xTimerStopFromISR() sets this value to pdTRUE then a context switch should
* be performed before the interrupt exits.
*
* @return pdFAIL will be returned if the stop command could not be sent to
* the timer command queue. pdPASS will be returned if the command was
* successfully sent to the timer command queue. When the command is actually
* processed will depend on the priority of the timer service/daemon task
* relative to other tasks in the system. The timer service/daemon task
* priority is set by the configTIMER_TASK_PRIORITY configuration constant.
