13 | == Methodology |
---|
14 | |
---|
15 | This benchmark takes advantage of the existing tm27 test support implemented |
---|
16 | by most BSP's to achieve as much hardware independence as possible. Most BSPs |
---|
17 | have an instruction to install an interrupt vector, and then provide code for |
---|
18 | the ISR. rtems/testsuites/tmtests/tm27 uses this to test a variety of interrupt |
---|
19 | related concepts. The benchmark is simple, the vector is installed, the time |
---|
20 | is started, the interrupt is caused, and the time is ended in the first |
---|
21 | instruction of the ISR. This is the only Rhealstone that is not an average. |
