GSL's execution tick stamp as unsigned 64bit integer
.PD1
.PP
Retrive the GSL global tick stamp. GSL increments its global tick stamp at certain intervals, by specific amounts (refer to \fBgsl_engine_init()\fP for further details). The tick stamp is a non-wrapping, unsigned 64bit integer greater than 0. Threads can schedule sleep interruptions at certain tick stamps with \fBgsl_thread_awake_after()\fP and \fBgsl_thread_awake_before()\fP. Tick stamp updating occours at GSL engine block processing boundaries, so code that can guarantee to not run across those boundaries (for instance \fBGslProcessFunc()\fP functions) may use the macro \fIGSL_TICK_STAMP\fP to retrive the current tick in a faster manner (not involving mutex locking). See also \fBgsl_module_tick_stamp()\fP.

The GslPollFunc is a user supplied callback function which can be hooked into the GSL engine. The engine uses the poll functions to determine whether processing of \fIn_values\fP in its module network is necessary. In order for the poll functions to react to extern events, such as device driver status changes, the engine will \fBpoll(2)\fP the \fIfds\fP of the poll function and invoke the callback with \fIrevents_filled\fP==\fITRUE\fP if any of its \fIfds\fP changed state. The callback may also be invoked at other random times with \fIrevents_filled\fP=\fIFALSE\fP. It is supposed to return \fITRUE\fP if network processing is currently necessary, and \fIFALSE\fP if not. If \fIFALSE\fP is returned, \fItimeout_p\fP may be filled with the number of milliseconds the engine should use for polling at maximum.

This function performs a decimation in time fourier transformation in forward direction, where the input values are equidistant sampled data, and the output values contain the frequency proportions of the input. The input and output arrays are complex values with real and imaginery portions interleaved, adressable in the range [0..2*n_values-1], where n_values must be a power of two. Frequencies are stored in-order, the K-th output corresponds to the frequency K/n_values. (If you want to interpret negative frequencies, note that the frequencies -K/n_values and (n_values-K)/n_values are equivalent). Note that the transformation is performed out of place, the input array is not modified, and may not overlap with the output array.
This function performs a decimation in time fourier transformation in backwards direction with normalization. As such, this function represents the counterpart to \fBgsl_power2_fftac()\fP, that is, a value array which is transformed into the frequency domain with \fBgsl_power2_fftac()\fP can be reconstructed by issuing \fBgsl_power2_fftsc()\fP on the transform. Note that the transformation is performed out of place, the input array is not modified, and may not overlap with the output array.
Real valued variant of \fBgsl_power2_fftac()\fP, the input array contains real valued equidistant sampled data [0..n_values-1], and the output array contains the positive frequency half of the complex valued fourier transform. Note, that the complex valued fourier transform H of a purely real valued set of data, satisfies \fBH(-f)\fP = Conj(\fBH(f)\fP), where \fBConj()\fP denotes the complex conjugate, so that just the positive frequency half suffices to describe the entire frequency spectrum. Even so, the resulting n_values/2 complex frequencies are one value off in storage size, but the resulting frequencies \fBH(0)\fP and \fBH(n_values/2)\fP are both real valued, so the real portion of \fBH(n_values/2)\fP is stored in ri_values_out[1] (the imaginery part of \fBH(0)\fP), so that both r_values_in and ri_values_out can be of size n_values. Note that the transformation is performed out of place, the input array is not modified, and may not overlap with the output array.
Real valued variant of \fBgsl_power2_fftsc()\fP, counterpart to \fBgsl_power2_fftar()\fP, using the same frequency storage format. A real valued data set transformed into the frequency domain with \fBgsl_power2_fftar()\fP can be reconstructed using this function. Note that the transformation is performed out of place, the input array is not modified, and may not overlap with the output array.

This function sends a sine signal of the desired frequency through an IIR filter, to test the value of the transfer function at a given point. It uses gsl_iir_filter_eval to do so. Compared to a "mathematical approach" of finding the transfer function, this function makes it possible to see the effects of finite arithmetic during filter evaluation. The first half of the output signal is not considered, since a lot of IIR filters have a transient phase where also overshoot is possible. For n_values, you should specify a reasonable large value. It should be a lot larger than the filter order, and large enough to let the input signal become (close to) 1.0 multiple times.
