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