On /n/sources/contrib/lucio/go there is a fresh version of my efforts.
It is a bit ahead of my submissions to the Go Authors and could
benefit from inspection from the Plan 9 perspective. Also, this
inevitably means that there will be changes required by the code
reviewers.
At this point, it

It is for the HARE project (Plan 9 on the BG/P). I am basically
running direct comparisons against Brazil, which also used nsec. I need

if nsec on whatever platform reads from /dev/bintime, my suggestion is
you not use it. Read from the processor counter instead.

There's a recipe in src/cmd/mkone (../mkone)?
I hope I haven't overlooked any of the mkfiles, it's been a bit of a
swamp for a while.
Have a look at each mkfile's first few lines, you can change ROOT
there or
mk ROOT=$home/go
but I'm not always propagating (ever?) MKFLAGS.
Let me
mk ROOT=$home/go
mk 'ROOT='^$home/go
seems better, if uglier :-)

Yes, nsec does call bintime from devcons. Can you point to an example
that uses the process counter? I was
what are you measuring? i suspect you don't need the processor counter.
(you're anyway not going to be wired to a single processor.)

I'm measuring how much time it takes for the system to come up, reserve
a number of tasks, run them,
For 12 seconds, nsec is fine. I'm with charles on this one.
ron
12 seconds is rather bigger in magnitude than a nanosecond,
so i think you're fairly safe. or, as wikipedia more poetically
puts it ``One nanosecond is to one second as one second is to 31.7 years.''
if you get to the stage where it's a matter of nanoseconds between the
systems, there's not much
ron, by contrast, was timing a particular short interaction, which might be
repeated
a great many times (and thus mount up),
where non-trivial overhead of taking the measurement could easily hide
significant differences
between two implementations, hence the use of a timer provided directly by

There is server and client code in the repo. We've been using it for
some time now at sandia and other places.
Writing a synthetic to work for libixp is pretty easy.
