Hi Hayim,
Is this a user-space application or kernel module, you want to profile?
I want to profile a user-space application.
I also use clock():
Where is clock() defined?
I just wanted to confirm this:
Using gettimeofday() will never give me a correct result because:
It is a user space app. which the scheduler can kick out anytime. Right?
Anything else ?
Secondly, the resolution that i get thru gettimeofday() after conversion
can be upto microseconds. But I fear that is fake ?
A resolution upto millisecond is correct? This has something to do with
the sys clock / timing issues I read somewhere.
Thanks for your time..
