psl1ght does not provide times() for newlib to use

[andoma]

This code

#include <time.h>
int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
   return clock();
}

fails to link:

$ make

[CC]  main.c

Looks like PSL1GHT fails to provide times().Not sure if LV2 can provide this info. Perhaps it should just read PPC TBU or something...

Find out what the cell sdk uses?

[andoma]

I myself don't have the cell SDK...

After reading the man pages on linux which says 'times() returns the number of clock ticks that have elapsed since an arbitrary point in the past.', I think we make times just set tms_utime = time(NULL) * CLOCKS_PER_SEC and set all other fields to 0

       struct tms {
           clock_t tms_utime;  /* user time */
           clock_t tms_stime;  /* system time */
           clock_t tms_cutime; /* user time of children */
           clock_t tms_cstime; /* system time of children */
       };

andoma has this been fixed?

[andoma]

Nope not AFAIK
