Here is an example of using the PRUSS cycle counter to time a pulse.

Files at:   github.org/jstampfl/Prutimer

here is the PRUSS code:

/ pt.p

 // To get the echo pulse on pin P8 15.
// assemble: pasm -v3 -b pt.p (could be pasm_2 if you follow directions
.setcallreg r29.w0 // Going to use r31 for interrupt
.origin 0
.entrypoint T811
#define CTRL 0x22000 //Start of control registers.
T811:
 mov r8,CTRL //set r8 for the lbbo 
 ldi r12, 0 // Local memory address for pru0 data memory
 ldi r2, 0 // zero to zero the cycle counter
TB1:
 qbbs TB1,r31,15 // wait here for echo line to go low

// WAIT FOR THE ECHO PULSE TB2:

 qbbc TB2,r31,15 // wait here for echo line to go high - start of pulse

// START THE CYCLE COUNTER

 lbbo r9,r8,0,4 // Get the control register
 set r9,3 // Set the cycle counter enable
 sbbo r9,r8,0,4 // Put back to the register to start

// WAIT FOR THE PULSE TO END

TB3:
 qbbs TB3,r31,15 // wait here until echo line goes low.

// STOP THE CYCLE COUNTER
 lbbo r9,r8,0,4 // get control register
 clr r9,3 // clear counter to disable
 sbbo r9,r8,0,4 // put back
 ldi r10,1 // not neccessary, was going to use as signal

// GET THE CYCLE COUNT AND PUT IN PRU0 LOCAL DATA MEMORY

 lbbo r11,r8,12,4 // get the CYCLE count
 sbbo r10,r12,0,8 // put r10 & r11 (the unused signal & cycle count) in
 // pru0 data memory
 sbbo r2,r8,12,4 // Zero the cycle count

// SEND INTERRUPT SIGNAL TO LINUX SIDE

 mov r31.b0,35 //Send interrupt to Linux side

 lbbo r11,r12,8,4 // Check for end flag from Linux side
 qbne TB1,r11,2 // go back for more
TB4:
 halt
