Hi,
I have a question about the formatter %Ld of rtl_printf (printk). The man
page gave me the hint, that this formatter is supported under linux and will
fomat long long values (i.e. 64 bit int's) into strings for console output.
In my case this works only with integers equal or smaller than 0xFFFFFFFF
and with the "u" for unsigned. I discover the problem, if I tryed to
calculate timing differences. Example:
------------------------------
hrtime_t t1, t2;
t1 = clock_gethrtime(CLOCK_RTL_SCHED);
.... // do something
usleep(300); // sleep in example for 300 microsecs
t2 = clock_gethrtime(CLOCK_RTL_SCHED);
rtl_printf("Start=[%Ld] End=[%Ld] Diff=[%Ld]\n", t1, t2, t2-t1);
------------------------------
If t1 and t2 fits into 32 bits (unsigned long) all seems to be ok otherwise
I get negative values at output. Has anybody an explanation for this
behavior??
At the second, I'am not sure now, if the calculated difference is ok. I will
check this tody, because the schowing value is also not plausible (in the
example above: expected a little bit more than the sleeping time of 300
microsecs, may be 3xx xxx and got: 4732???)
My equipment: Pentium III, 256MB Ram, Mandrake 7.2, RTLinux-3.0 and
prepatched kernel 2.2.18 from fsmlab.
Thanks
Thomas
