Enumeration Type Documentation

QB_THREAD_LOCK_SHORT is a short term lock (spinlock if available on your system) QB_THREAD_LOCK_LONG is a mutex.

Enumerator
QB_THREAD_LOCK_SHORT 
QB_THREAD_LOCK_LONG 

Function Documentation

char* qb_strerror_r ( int  errnum,
char *  buf,
size_t  buflen 
)

strerror_r replacement.

int32_t qb_thread_lock ( qb_thread_lock_t tl)

Calls either pthread_mutex_lock() or pthread_spin_lock().

qb_thread_lock_t* qb_thread_lock_create ( qb_thread_lock_type_t  type)

Create a new lock of the given type.

Parameters
typeQB_THREAD_LOCK_SHORT == spinlock (where available, else mutex) QB_THREAD_LOCK_LONG == mutex
Returns
pointer to qb_thread_lock_type_t or NULL on error.
int32_t qb_thread_lock_destroy ( qb_thread_lock_t tl)

Calls either pthread_mutex_destro() or pthread_spin_destroy().

int32_t qb_thread_trylock ( qb_thread_lock_t tl)

Calls either pthread_mutex_trylock() or pthread_spin_trylock().

int32_t qb_thread_unlock ( qb_thread_lock_t tl)

Calls either pthread_mutex_unlock() or pthread_spin_unlock.

void qb_timespec_add_ms ( struct timespec *  ts,
int32_t  ms 
)

Add milliseconds onto the timespec.

Parameters
tsthe ts to add to
msthe amount of milliseconds to increment ts
uint64_t qb_util_nano_current_get ( void  )

Get the current number of nano secounds produced by the systems incrementing clock (CLOCK_MONOTOMIC if available).

uint64_t qb_util_nano_from_epoch_get ( void  )

Get the time in nano seconds since epoch.

uint64_t qb_util_nano_monotonic_hz ( void  )

Get the frequence of the clock used in qb_util_nano_current_get().

void qb_util_set_log_function ( qb_util_log_fn_t  fn)

Use this function to output libqb internal log message as you wish.

qb_util_stopwatch_t* qb_util_stopwatch_create ( void  )

Create a Stopwatch (to time operations)

Examples:
ipcclient.c.
void qb_util_stopwatch_free ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Free the stopwatch.

float qb_util_stopwatch_sec_elapsed_get ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Get the elapsed time in seconds.

(it must have been started and stopped).

Examples:
ipcclient.c.
uint64_t qb_util_stopwatch_split ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Create a new time split (or lap time)

Parameters
swthe stopwatch
Return values
therelative split time in micro seconds
0if no more splits available
int32_t qb_util_stopwatch_split_ctl ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw,
uint32_t  max_splits,
uint32_t  options 
)
Parameters
swthe stopwatch
max_splitsmaximum number of time splits
options(0 or QB_UTIL_SW_OVERWRITE )
Return values
0on success
-errnoon failure
uint32_t qb_util_stopwatch_split_last ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Get the last split index to be used by qb_util_stopwatch_time_split_get()

Note
this is zero based
Parameters
swthe stopwatch
Returns
the last entry index
void qb_util_stopwatch_start ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Start the stopwatch.

This also acts as a reset. Essentially it sets the starting time and clears the splits.

Examples:
ipcclient.c.
void qb_util_stopwatch_stop ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Stop the stopwatch.

This just allows you to get the elapsed time. So you can call this multiple times. Do not call qb_util_stopwatch_start() unless you want to reset the stopwatch.

Examples:
ipcclient.c.
uint64_t qb_util_stopwatch_time_split_get ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw,
uint32_t  receint,
uint32_t  older 
)

Read the time split (in us) from "receint" to "older".

If older == receint then the cumulated split will be returned (from the stopwatch start).

Parameters
swthe stopwatch
receintsplit
oldersplit
Return values
thesplit time in micro seconds
0if not a valid split
uint64_t qb_util_stopwatch_us_elapsed_get ( qb_util_stopwatch_t sw)

Get the elapsed time in micro seconds.

(it must have been started and stopped).

void qb_util_timespec_from_epoch_get ( struct timespec *  ts)

Get the time in timespec since epoch.

Parameters
ts(out) the timespec
Returns
status (0 == ok, -errno on error)
