Basic Stopwatch

uint64_t elapsed1;
uint64_t elapsed2;
qb_util_stopwatch_t *sw = qb_util_stopwatch_create();
qb_util_stopwatch_start(sw);
usleep(sometime);
qb_util_stopwatch_stop(sw);

usleep(somemoretime);
qb_util_stopwatch_stop(sw);
elapsed2 = qb_util_stopwatch_us_elapsed_get(sw);
qb_util_stopwatch_free(sw);

Stopwatch with splits

Setup a stopwatch with space for 3 splits.

uint64_t split;
qb_util_stopwatch_t *sw = qb_util_stopwatch_create();
qb_util_stopwatch_split_ctl(sw, 3, 0);
qb_util_stopwatch_start(sw);
usleep(sometime);

usleep(somemoretime);
qb_util_stopwatch_split(sw);
usleep(somemoretime);
qb_util_stopwatch_split(sw);
idx = qb_util_stopwatch_split_last(sw);
do {

split = qb_util_stopwatch_time_split_get(sw, idx, idx);
qb_log(LOG_INFO, "split %d is %"PRIu64"", last, split);
idx--; } while (split > 0); split = qb_util_stopwatch_time_split_get(sw, 2, 1); qb_log(LOG_INFO, "time between second and third split is %"PRIu64"", split); qb_util_stopwatch_free(sw);

QB_THREAD_LOCK_SHORT is a short term lock (spinlock if available on your system) QB_THREAD_LOCK_LONG is a mutex.

Enumerator

strerror_r replacement.

Calls either pthread_mutex_lock() or pthread_spin_lock().

qb_thread_lock_t* qb_thread_lock_create (qb_thread_lock_type_t type)

Create a new lock of the given type.

Parameters:

type QB_THREAD_LOCK_SHORT == spinlock (where available, else mutex) QB_THREAD_LOCK_LONG == mutex

Returns:

pointer to qb_thread_lock_type_t or NULL on error.

Calls either pthread_mutex_destro() or pthread_spin_destroy().

Calls either pthread_mutex_trylock() or pthread_spin_trylock().

Calls either pthread_mutex_unlock() or pthread_spin_unlock.

Add milliseconds onto the timespec.

Parameters:

ts the ts to add to
ms the amount of milliseconds to increment ts

Get the current number of nano secounds produced by the systems incrementing clock (CLOCK_MONOTOMIC if available).

Get the time in nano seconds since epoch.

Get the frequence of the clock used in qb_util_nano_current_get().

Use this function to output libqb internal log message as you wish.

qb_util_stopwatch_t* qb_util_stopwatch_create (void)

Create a Stopwatch (to time operations)

Free the stopwatch.

Get the elapsed time in seconds. (it must have been started and stopped).

Create a new time split (or lap time)

Parameters:

sw the stopwatch

Return values:

the relative split time in micro seconds
0 if no more splits available

Parameters:

sw the stopwatch
max_splits maximum number of time splits
options (0 or QB_UTIL_SW_OVERWRITE )

Return values:

0 on success
-errno on failure

Get the last split index to be used by qb_util_stopwatch_time_split_get()

Note:

this is zero based

Parameters:

sw the stopwatch

Returns:

the last entry index

Start the stopwatch. This also acts as a reset. Essentially it sets the starting time and clears the splits.

Stop the stopwatch. This just allows you to get the elapsed time. So you can call this multiple times. Do not call qb_util_stopwatch_start() unless you want to reset the stopwatch.

Read the time split (in us) from 'receint' to 'older'. If older == receint then the cumulated split will be returned (from the stopwatch start).

Parameters:

sw the stopwatch
receint split
older split

Return values:

the split time in micro seconds
0 if not a valid split

Get the elapsed time in micro seconds. (it must have been started and stopped).

Get the time in timespec since epoch.

Parameters:

ts (out) the timespec

Returns:

status (0 == ok, -errno on error)
