24/* There are no generic definitions for the times. We could write something
25 using the `gettimeofday' system call where available but the overhead of
26 the system call might be too high.
27
28 In case a platform supports timers in the hardware the following macros
29 and types must be defined:
30
31 - HP_TIMING_AVAIL: test for availability.
32
33 - HP_TIMING_INLINE: this macro is non-zero if the functionality is not
34 implemented using function calls but instead uses some inlined code
35 which might simply consist of a few assembler instructions. We have to
36 know this since we might want to use the macros here in places where we
37 cannot make function calls.
38
39 - hp_timing_t: This is the type for variables used to store the time
40 values.
41
42 - HP_TIMING_ZERO: clear `hp_timing_t' object.
43
44 - HP_TIMING_NOW: place timestamp for current time in variable given as
45 parameter.
46
47 - HP_TIMING_DIFF_INIT: do whatever is necessary to be able to use the
48 HP_TIMING_DIFF macro.
49
50 - HP_TIMING_DIFF: compute difference between two times and store it
51 in a third. Source and destination might overlap.
52
53 - HP_TIMING_ACCUM: add time difference to another variable. This might
54 be a bit more complicated to implement for some platforms as the
55 operation should be thread-safe and 64bit arithmetic on 32bit platforms
56 is not.
57
58 - HP_TIMING_ACCUM_NT: this is the variant for situations where we know
59 there are no threads involved.
60
61 - HP_TIMING_PRINT: write decimal representation of the timing value into
62 the given string. This operation need not be inline even though
63 HP_TIMING_INLINE is specified.
