Hello, I am trying to measure the number of clock cycles required by one of the functions implemented in my application code (baremetal). I tried to use the tick timer but it doesn't give me the clock cycle utilization by the or1200 processor. I want to compare SW performance for AES encryption vs. clocks taken by an AES HW coprocessor. It would be great if anyone could tell me an alternative way/solution to measuring accurate clock cycle requirement or fix the error in my code as below: _____________________________________________________________________ #include #include int main() { int init = or1k_timer_init(5000); or1k_timer_enable(); or1k_timer_set_mode(SPR_TTMR_CR); unsigned long start_tick, end_tick, count = 0; start_tick = or1k_timer_get_ticks(); //~~Application function inserted here end_tick = or1k_timer_get_ticks(); count = end_tick - start_tick; printf("Clock counts = %u\n", count); return 0; } _____________________________________________________________________
