Add a CPU counter interface to allow access to a free-running counter. It is useful to measure short time intervals. This can be used for example to enable profiling of critical low-level functions. Add two busy wait functions rtems_counter_delay_ticks() and rtems_counter_delay_nanoseconds() implemented via the CPU counter.
Tools Required ============== The following tools are used in the production of this documentation: TeX texi2html 1.82 texinfo-tex 4.13a texi2html will be deprecated in the upcomine texinfo release. At that point, we will need to provide support for texi2any.pl as an alternative means to produce html output. This was used by the authors to generate the directory tree figure in the texinfo printed version: tree (from the CTAN Archives -- see http://jasper.ora.com/ctan.html) Changing the Version Number and Timestamp ========================================= RTEMS Version number is in configure.in. Edit that file and run bootstrap. Documentation date is in common/setup.texi.in and also must be modified by hand. bootstrap does not have to be run after modifying this file. Making the Documentation ======================== cd rtems-XXX/doc ../bootstrap ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode make all make install Cleaning ======== make clean make distclean make maintainer-clean Making a Source Distribution ============================ This generates a rtems-<version>.tar.gz in the toplevel directory. Making a Preformatted Distribution ================================== Install and tar it up. :)
