VBCC -prof profiling - requirements?
I'm trying to out -prof option in VBCC, and I get tons of errors like this:

The code from m68k-amigaos cannot be used, because it depends on timer.device UNIT_ECLOCKand the ReadEClock()function, which are only present since V36. The profiler needs the time since program start in micro seconds. Basically, the only thing I have to do is to write a Kickstart 1.x version for this: Code:
#include <exec/types.h> #include <exec/execbase.h> #include <devices/timer.h> #include <proto/exec.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <string.h> static uint32_t _ReadEClock(__reg("a0") uint64_t *, __reg("a6") void *) = "\tjsr\t-60(a6)"; static void *timerbase; static struct timerequest timerequest; static uint64_t start,eclock_msfactor; static uint32_t eclock_freq; int _prof_timerinit() { if (SysBase->LibNode.lib_Version < 36) return 0; /* hack a timerequest, without CreateMsgPort() and CreateIORequest() */ memset(&timerequest,0,sizeof(struct timerequest)); timerequest.tr_node.io_Message.mn_Node.ln_Type = NT_REPLYMSG; timerequest.tr_node.io_Message.mn_Length = sizeof(struct timerequest); if (OpenDevice(TIMERNAME,UNIT_ECLOCK,(struct IORequest *)&timerequest,0) != 0) { fprintf(stderr,"_prof_inittimer: Can't get " TIMERNAME " for profiling!\n") return 0; } timerbase = timerequest.tr_node.io_Device; eclock_freq = _ReadEClock(&start,timerbase); eclock_msfactor = (1000000ULL << 16) / eclock_freq; return 1; } void _prof_timerexit() { if (timerbase) { CloseDevice((struct IORequest *)&timerequest); timerbase = NULL; } } uint32_t _prof_time() { uint64_t now; _ReadEClock(&now,timerbase); return (uint32_t)(now-start); } uint32_t _prof_micros(uint32_t ecval) { /* convert EClock value to microseconds */ return (eclock_msfactor * (uint64_t)ecval) >> 16; } |

ok, thanks for letting me know. Thanks for all you do for us, by the way.

If your own code is of primary concern for profiling, you could always compile and run with profiling on 2.0+.

yep, good point. I also have AProf working, but sometimes the results are a bit weird (impossible numbers), and virtually always there is a lot of variation in the time lengths recorded (which, I dunno, might be true anytime running functions with such short run times).
Not in any hurry... |
