PAPI_get_virt_usec(3) PAPI PAPI_get_virt_usec(3)NAMEPAPI_get_virt_usec-
get virtual time counter values in microseconds
SYNOPSISDetailed Description
@retval PAPI_ECNFLCT
If there is no master event set.
This will happen if the library has not been initialized, or for threaded
applications, if there has been no thread id function defined by the
PAPI_thread_init function.
@retval PAPI_ENOMEM
For threaded applications, if there has not yet been any thread
specific master event created for the current thread, and if the
allocation of such an event set fails, the call will return PAPI_ENOMEM or PAPI_ESYS .
This function returns the total number of virtual units from some
arbitrary starting point.
Virtual units accrue every time the process is running in user-mode on
behalf of the process.
Like the real time counters, this count is guaranteed to exist on every
platform PAPI supports. However on some platforms, the resolution can be
as bad as 1/Hz as defined by the operating system.
@par Examples:
s = PAPI_get_virt_cyc();
your_slow_code();
e = PAPI_get_virt_cyc();
printf("Process has run for cycles: %lld\n",e-s);
