So you are in userland, obviously... > > How can I get a timestamp in a xenomai native user task? Is there sth > equivalent to rtdm_clock_read()? Or do I have to write a kernel task? Nope, there is rt_timer_read & Co. for native user-mode applications. I was about to remark that everything can be found in the API docs - but it can't! Any volunteer to add the missing functions from native/timer.h to the docs? Maybe there is just something broken for doxygen. TIA!
