.. title:: TICKLESS_CAPABLE

.. option:: CONFIG_TICKLESS_CAPABLE

*(No prompt -- not directly user assignable.)*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

Timer drivers should select this flag if they are capable of
supporting tickless operation.  That is, a call to
z_clock_set_timeout() with a number of ticks greater than
one should be expected not to produce a call to
z_clock_announce() (really, not to produce an interrupt at
all) until the specified expiration.

Defaults
========

No defaults. Implicitly defaults to ``n``.
