Jim,
I never tried profiling before, so I ran into some problem here:
$ gcc -pg -o tstloop tstloop.c
$ tstloop
128205.13 semop/s [0,0]
$ gprof tstloop
gprof: gmon.out file is missing call-graph data
That's strange. Any chance you're running a different program that's elsewhere in the path? Try for instance running "./tstloop".
Also, for gprof, use the -l option (small L). I get:
Line 21 is the semctl() function. Line 18 is the semget() call.
Now that we have concrete results, I'd cross-post this on the Linuxquestions.org com site.
The next step would be to use the debug/profiling version of libc (which I don't have floating around) and see if we can use gprof to find the bottleneck therein. Or, look at the source. It would seem to be of great benefit to have this improved.
Hello,
I have a Supermicro server with a P4SCI mother board running Debian Sarge 3.1. This is the "dmidecode" output related to RAM info:
RAM speed information is incomplete.. "Current Speed: Unknown", is there anyway/soft to get the speed of installed RAM modules? thanks!!

Hi,
I am looking to use a semaphore for the first time in one of my scripts. I am just wondering if there are any simple examples or tutorials around?
I am a beginner so the simpler the better :)
Thanks

Control two exclusively shared resources(semaphore). The two resources are two files. The producer will write even numbers to one file, and odd numbers to another one. The consumer respectively reads from each file until it gets 5 even numbers and 5 odd numbers.

If I create a semaphore and then I fork a number of child processes then all the child process use that same semaphore.
Since the process address spaces are different rfom each other then how all the child process are able to access the same semaphore?

I was asked to add this piece of code to a c program which I will execute through the shell:
for(long i = 0; i < NITER; i++)
{ sem_wait( &sema);
count++;
sem_post( &sema); }
I didn't get it, which is the critical section ? if it's "count++" how would a thread wake up in order to enter it... (1 Reply)
