AFAIU, when used in userspace, this will actually "stall" the processor
until an interrupt/timeout happens, so the current process will keep
occupying the processor doing nothing (up to the next interrupt/timeout)
right ?
BTW, the spec also states that "When the TW (Timeout Wait) bit in
mstatus is set and WRS.NTO is executed in any privilege mode other than
M mode, and it does not complete within an implementation-specific
bounded time limit, the WRS.NTO instruction will cause an illegal
instruction exception." so I guess the process will be killed in this case ?
If this is not a concern:
