Hi, I've checked in some changes to implement more clock_* functionality. For x86 we have now a clock which is using the TSC. Both Linux and Hurd should have the functionality (although it cannot quite yet work on Hurd since I don't know how to get the processor frequency; Roland, Mark, your call). The new function from one of the latest POSIX drafts to get the ID of such a counter is also included. But: the code is really untested. It's too late now, will do this tomorrow. One thing you'll notice is that the clock_* and timer_* functions are moved into librt. This is not only where other platforms have them, we have to have them there because of the upcoming timer_* implementation which will, lacking kernel support, use threads. Since the functions were not in glibc 2.1 there is not compatiblity issue. -- ---------------. drepper at gnu.org ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------
