- * gettimeofday.c --
- *
- * This file is a benchmark program to measure the cost of a
- * minimal kernel call (gettimeofday). It should be invoked as follows:
- *
- * gettimeofday [-n] count
- *
- * Where count is the number of calls to make. It makes that
- * many calls, then prints out the average time per call. If -n is
- * specified, then the gettimeofday calls don't actually ask for the
- * time. The difference between a run with -n and a run without -n
- * should be the time to copy the current time-of-day to user space.
