This group contains the Armv7-AR/AArch64 Generic Timer Clock Driver implementation.
The BSP must provide the following function:
void arm_generic_timer_get_config(uint32_t *frequency, uint32_t *irq);
The BSP may optionally define ARM_GENERIC_TIMER_USE_VIRTUAL in <bsp.h> to use the virtual timer instead of the physical timer.
uint32_t _CPU_Counter_frequency | ( | void | ) |
Gets the current CPU counter frequency in Hz.
CPU_Counter_ticks _CPU_Counter_read | ( | void | ) |
Gets the current CPU counter value.
A CPU counter should be some monotonically increasing free-running counter. It ticks usually with a frequency close to the CPU or system bus clock. The counter should not be affected by power saving states so that it can be used for timestamps. The CPU counter should be initialized at the RTEMS_SYSINIT_CPU_COUNTER initialization step if necessary. If RTEMS_PROFILING is enabled, the CPU counter may have to work very early in the system initialization to avoid invalid profiling statistics.
