The program runs with the scheduling policy of * SCHED_FIFO at a maximum SCHED_FIFO priority. It is bound to a single * processor and its address space is locked as well. It makes successive * calls to the gettimeofday() function(via inlined assembly to read the * TSC).The value returned between two such consecutive calls is reported * as the latency. * The maximum, minimum and average delays are reported for x pairs of such * calls. * * USAGE: * Use run_auto.sh script in current directory to build and run test. * * AUTHOR * * * HISTORY * * *****************************************************************************/ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #define ITERATIONS 1000000ULL #define INTERVALS 10 void usage(void) { rt_help(); printf("preempt_timing specific options:\n"); } int parse_args(int c, char *v) { int handled = 1; switch (c) { case 'h': usage(); exit(0); default: handled = 0; break; } return handled; } unsigned long long sample_list[ITERATIONS]; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { unsigned long long i, j, delta, min, max, avg; struct sched_param param; cpu_set_t mask; int err; #ifdef TSC_UNSUPPORTED printf("Error: test cannot be executed on an arch wihout TSC.\n"); return ENOTSUP; #endif max = avg = 0; min = -1; setup(); rt_init("h", parse_args, argc, argv); /* switch to SCHED_FIFO 99 */ param.sched_priority = sched_get_priority_max(SCHED_FIFO); err = sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, ¶m); /* Check that the user has the appropriate privileges */ if (err) { if (errno == EPERM) { fprintf(stderr, "This program runs with a scheduling policy of SCHED_FIFO at priority %d\n", param.sched_priority); fprintf(stderr, "You don't have the necessary privileges to create such a real-time process.\n"); } else { fprintf(stderr, "Failed to set scheduler, errno %d\n", errno); } exit(1); } /* BIND TO A SINGLE CPU */ CPU_ZERO(&mask); CPU_SET(0, &mask); err = sched_setaffinity(0, sizeof(mask), &mask); if (err < 0) { printf("Can't set affinity: %d %s\n", err, strerror(err)); exit(-1); } for (j = 0; j < INTERVALS; j++) { /* Collect samples */ for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++) rdtscll(sample_list[i]); /* Process samples */ for (i = 0; i < (ITERATIONS - 1); i++) { delta = sample_list[i + 1] - sample_list[i]; if (delta < min) min = delta; if (delta > max) max = delta; if (delta > 100000) printf("maxd(%llu:%llu): %llu %llu = %llu\n", j, i, sample_list[i], sample_list[i + 1], delta); avg += delta; } usleep(100); /*let necessary things happen */ } avg /= (ITERATIONS * INTERVALS); printf("%lld pairs of gettimeofday() calls completed\n", ITERATIONS * INTERVALS); printf("Time between calls:\n"); printf("Minimum: %llu \n", min); printf("Maximum: %llu \n", max); printf("Average: %llu \n", avg); return 0; }
