1) There is a bug in the program - I made a couple of changes which I didn't like but didn't fully revert. The (argc != 0) in main() should actually be (argc == 0). 2) I modified the program to create a histogram of the lower bits and looked at that in gnuplot. It was immediately obvious that the distribution is extremely non-uniform. I suspect that this is - at least in part - due to the weird way get_cyclecount() computes the value it returns. We should either rewrite it to return something sensible or nuke it and use binuptime() instead. I uploaded a new tarball with the improved program and the histogram: http://people.freebsd.org/~des/attachtimes-total.txz DES -- Dag-Erling Smørgrav - [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
