For example, they * may be in CPU instruction cycles or raw oscillator ticks or nano-seconds. * * These macros only work if the user defines PARCTIMING_ENABLE. Otherwise, they do not * generate any instructions and parcTiming_Delta will always return 0. * * @code * #define PARCTIMING_ENABLE 1 * #include * * void * foo(void) * { * parcTiming_Init(_foo); * // ... other stuff .. * parcTiming_Start(_foo); * // ... stuff to measure ... * parcTiming_Stop(_foo); * * uint64_t delta = parcTiming_Delta(_foo); * parcTiming_Fini(_foo) * } * @endcode * */ #ifndef libparc_parc_Timing_h #define libparc_parc_Timing_h #if defined(PARCTIMING_ENABLE) // begin platform detection #if defined(__i386__) || defined(__x86_64__) #define PARCTIMING_INTEL #include #elif defined(__APPLE__) #define PARCTIMING_DARWIN #include #elif defined(__linux__) #define PARCTIMING_LINUX #include #else #define PARCTIMING_GENERIC #include #endif // platform detection #else // PARCTIMING_ENABLE #define _private_parcTiming_Init(prefix) #define _private_parcTiming_Start(prefix) #define _private_parcTiming_Stop(prefix) #define _private_parcTiming_Delta(prefix) ((uint64_t) 0) #define _private_parcTiming_Fini(prefix) #endif // PARCTIMING_ENABLE /** * Initialize the timing facility for namespace prefix `prefix` * * Used inside a code block, this macro will define several variables prefixed with * the name `prefix`.
