Dear list,
As Michi suggested, I did some testing with ktime.h, but I found a
simpler solution with time.h.
I'm not sure if it is correct, and I would like to have some help... :-)
The code that I'm using for execution time measurement is:
#include <linux/time.h>
getnstimeofday (ts_start); /*stopwatch start*/
for (i = 0; i < q->num_buffers; ++i)
q->bufs[i]->state = VB2_BUF_STATE_DEQUEUED;
getnstimeofday (ts_end); /*stopwatch stop*/
diff = timespec_sub(end, begin);
printk ("%lu,", diff.tv_nsec );
Am I doing anything wrong? Can mysterious stuff like out of order
execution engine, brake the stopwatch?
The full module code is at: http://goo.gl/cCMIa
Thank you!
Peter
