Hi, I have performed a number of experiments using a full-system simulator, which means that I have statistics that both contain user-level values as well as system-level values.
I have some issues with separating statistics into a user-level cathegory and a system-level cathegory. The problem is that I don't exactly know when I pass the boundary between user-level space and systen-level space. My guess is that the scheduler is activated every OS tick, so I need to put some "markers" at the beginning of the main scheduler function and at the end of it. Is the scheduler function in the /uts/common/disp/disp.c file? If yes, which function is it? Secondly, there are interrupts, which I think I have isolated well already. Apart from scheduling and interrupts, are there any other occurences that I should put in the system-level category? Of course, if there is a simpler way to "detect" system-level execution from user-level execution I would be happy to head about it.
