My guess is that u want to measure the time taken to execute a
function in microseconds.
something like
start_time
YOUR_FUNCTION
end_time
for this i use something like this declare
struct timeval tv in your function
and insert printk statements before and after calling to your function
do_gettimeofday(&tv);
printk ("Before %s (): Sec = %d micro Sec = %d\n", __FUNCTION__,
tv.tv_sec, tv.tv_usec);
call_to_your_function(();
printk ("After %s (): Sec = %d micro Sec = %d\n", __FUNCTION__,
tv.tv_sec, tv.tv_usec);

Warm Regards,
