[PATCH v4 5/9] cyclic: Add 'cyclic list' command

Stefan Roese sr at denx.de
Tue Aug 16 12:28:12 CEST 2022


This patch adds the cyclic command, which currently only supports the
'list' subcommand, to list all currently registered cyclic functions.
Here an example:

=> cyclic list
function: cyclic_demo, cpu-time: 7010 us, frequency: 99.80 times/s
function: cyclic_demo2, cpu-time: 1 us, frequency: 1.13 times/s

As you can see, the cpu-time is accounted, so that cyclic functions
that take too long might be discovered. Additionally the frequency is
logged.
