LEARN ABOUT FREEBSD
clocks
CLOCKS(7) BSD Miscellaneous Information Manual CLOCKS(7)
NAME
clocks -- various system timers
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
DESCRIPTION
HZ is not part of the application interface in BSD.
There are many different real and virtual (timekeeping) clocks with different frequencies:
o The scheduling clock. This is a real clock with frequency that happens to be 100. It is not available to applications.
o The statistics clock. This is a real clock with frequency that happens to be 128. It is not directly available to applications.
o The clock reported by clock(3). This is a virtual clock with a frequency that happens to be 128. Its actual frequency is given by the
macro CLOCKS_PER_SEC. Note that CLOCKS_PER_SEC may be floating point. Do not use clock(3) in new programs under FreeBSD. It is feeble
compared with getrusage(2). It is provided for ANSI conformance. It is implemented by calling getrusage(2) and throwing away informa-
tion and resolution.
o The clock reported by times(3). This is a virtual clock with a frequency that happens to be 128. Its actual frequency is given by the
macro CLK_TCK (deprecated; do not use) and by sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK) and by sysctl(3). Note that its frequency may be different from
CLOCKS_PER_SEC. Do not use times(3) in new programs under FreeBSD. It is feeble compared with gettimeofday(2) together with
getrusage(2). It is provided for POSIX conformance. It is implemented by calling gettimeofday(2) and getrusage(2) and throwing away
information and resolution.
o The profiling clock. This is a real clock with frequency 1024. It is used mainly by moncontrol(3), kgmon(8) and gprof(1). Applications
should determine its actual frequency using sysctl(3) or by reading it from the header in the profiling data file.
o The mc146818a clock. This is a real clock with a nominal frequency of 32768. It is divided down to give the statistic clock and the
profiling clock. It is not available to applications.
o The microseconds clock. This is a virtual clock with frequency 1000000. It is used for most timekeeping in BSD and is exported to
applications in getrusage(2), gettimeofday(2), select(2), getitimer(2), etc. This is the clock that should normally be used by BSD
applications.
o The i8254 clock. This is a real clock/timer with a nominal frequency of 1193182. It has three independent time counters to be used. It
is divided down to give the scheduling clock. It is not available to applications.
o The TSC clock (64-bit register) on fifth-generation or later x86 systems. This is a real clock with a frequency that is equivalent to
the number of cycles per second of the CPU(s). Its frequency can be found using the machdep.tsc_freq sysctl, if it is available. It is
used to interpolate between values of the scheduling clock. It can be accessed using the PMIOTSTAMP request of perfmon(4).
o The ACPI clock. This is a real clock/timer with a nominal frequency of 3579545. It is accessed via a 24 or 32 bit register. Unlike the
TSC clock, it maintains a constant tick rate even when the CPU sleeps or its clock rate changes. It is not available to applications.
Summary: if HZ is not 1000000 then the application is probably using the wrong clock.
