I need to know the kernels value of HZ in a userland app.
getconf CLK_TCK and hz = sysconf (_SC_CLK_TCK)
both seem to return CLOCKS_PER_SEC which is defined as USER_HZ which is defined as 100.
include/asm/param.h:
#ifdef __KERNEL__ # define HZ 1000 /* Internal kernel timer frequency */ # define USER_HZ 100 /* .. some user interfaces are in "ticks" */ # define CLOCKS_PER_SEC (USER_HZ) /* like times() */ #endif
Thanks in advance for any help Mark - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
