Thank you very much for your response

What I'm trying to do is to generate hold and disable times for SPI CS,
which should be about 50 ns

I started by an empty for loop but it seems optimization gets rid of it (I
haven't researched the issue properly). Then I thought a proper function
would be better but got stuck in that expression "sleep resolution"

For that scale (10 SYSCLK cycles), a loop is probably OK but I wanted to
make sure there's not a more appropriate system tool
