Using time.h in EDK

Hi,

I'm trying to measure program execution time in Platform Studio. I use two clock() functions from time.h before and after the code section I want to take the measurement. When I compiled the program, I received the following errors:

/cygdrive/c/EDK/gnu/powerpc-eabi/nt/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-eabi/3.4.1/../../../../powerpc-eabi/lib/libc.a(timer.o)(.text+0x10): In function `_times_r': /cygdrive/x/gnu_builds/halite/env/Jobs/MDT/sw/nt/gnu1/ppc_newlib_src/newlib/libc/reent/timer.c:64: undefined reference to `times' /cygdrive/c/EDK/gnu/powerpc-eabi/nt/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-eabi/3.4.1/../../../../powerpc-eabi/lib/libc.a(timer.o)(.text+0x68): In function `_gettimeofday_r': /cygdrive/x/gnu_builds/halite/env/Jobs/MDT/sw/nt/gnu1/ppc_newlib_src/newlib/libc/reent/timer.c:108: undefined reference to `gettimeofday' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Does anyone know what's wrong? Thanks plenty!

EDK does not map the clock() function to the timers that are present in your system. Instead, you might want to use the XTime_GetTime() function that gives you access to the PowerPC Time Stamp Counter. This counter is incrememnted once on every clock tick, so it can give you the exact # of cycles for the function.
