Hi, there i want to measure code execution time of a function. I came across https://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/timing_functions/index.html. I have enabled CONFIG_TIMING_FUNCTIONS on my prj.conf file. However the build cannot link to the timing functions. I get undefined references to both board_timing functions and soc_timing functions. How can i fix this. Additionally is there a better way to measure code execution time ?
have you included "#include <timing/timing.h>" ?
edit:
There is also a bug in dwt.h, line 103, in NCS1.7.0: "__ASSERT((DWT->CTRL & DWT_CTRL_NOCYCCNT_Msk) != 0,"
should be "__ASSERT((DWT->CTRL & DWT_CTRL_NOCYCCNT_Msk) == 0,"
This bug will be fixed in a future release.
You will only hit this bug if you've enabled assertions.
Yes, I have included timing.h, when i use the borad, soc timing function i still get an undefined reference error.
Here's my proj.conf
The local includes on main.cpp
and in main.cpp
timing_t start_time, end_time; uint64_t total_cycles; uint64_t total_ns; soc_timing_init(); soc_timing_start(); start_time = soc_timing_counter_get(); uart_read(); end_time = soc_timing_counter_get(); total_cycles = soc_timing_cycles_get(&start_time, &end_time); total_ns = soc_timing_cycles_to_ns(total_cycles); soc_timing_stop();
Error that i get

This is strange, I don't see anything terribly wrong, though you might want to enable the Floating Point Unit.
I suggest you try to build the hello_world sample as C++ with the timing library. If it works then we have a base line build that we can compare your application to.

Will try that out and get back to you, Thanks!
anybidy got the answer? I also trrying to use this function but got error undefined references to timer function.
For example
C:\nrf\example\button\src\main.c:21: undefined reference to `soc_timing_init'
I already add some c++ in configuration files.
Below is my configuration files.
# Include C++ Support CONFIG_CPLUSPLUS=y #include std c/c++, do not remove else standard design patterns will not work CONFIG_NEWLIB_LIBC=y CONFIG_LIB_CPLUSPLUS=y # Log CONFIG_LOG=y CONFIG_LOG_PRINTK=y CONFIG_LOG_MODE_DEFERRED=y CONFIG_USE_SEGGER_RTT=y CONFIG_RTT_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_LOG_BACKEND_UART=y # Timer CONFIG_TIMING_FUNCTIONS=y # GPIO CONFIG_GPIO=y
Anybody have solution for this? thanks.
