Ulrich Drepper 5732c4df91 Update.
* sysdeps/generic/hp-timing.h (HP_TIMING_NONAVAIL): Define to
	signal timing is not really implemented.

2000-04-17  Andreas Jaeger  <aj@suse.de>

	* elf/rtld.c (process_dl_debug): Mention statistics in help message.

2000-04-17  Jakub Jelinek  <jakub@redhat.com>

	* Makefile (install): Use slibdir and libdir instead of inst_slibdir
	and inst_libdir.

/* There are no generic definitions for the times. We could write something
using the `gettimeofday' system call where available but the overhead of
the system call might be too high.
In case a platform supports timers in the hardware the following macros
and types must be defined:
- HP_TIMING_AVAIL: test for availability.
- HP_TIMING_INLINE: this macro is non-zero if the functionality is not
implemented using function calls but instead uses some inlined code
which might simply consist of a few assembler instructions. We have to
know this since we might want to use the macros here in places where we
cannot make function calls.
- hp_timing_t: This is the type for variables used to store the time
values.
- HP_TIMING_ZERO: clear `hp_timing_t' object.
- HP_TIMING_NOW: place timestamp for current time in variable given as
parameter.
- HP_TIMING_DIFF_INIT: do whatever is necessary to be able to use the
HP_TIMING_DIFF macro.
- HP_TIMING_DIFF: compute difference between two times and store it
in a third. Source and destination might overlap.
- HP_TIMING_ACCUM: add time difference to another variable. This might
be a bit more complicated to implement for some platforms as the
operation should be thread-safe and 64bit arithmetic on 32bit platforms
is not.
- HP_TIMING_ACCUM_NT: this is the variant for situations where we know
there are no threads involved.
- HP_TIMING_PRINT: write decimal representation of the timing value into
the given string. This operation need not be inline even though
HP_TIMING_INLINE is specified.
