Using the microsecond timer in Drivers, time is accumulated in each bucket and is saved along with a count of the number of times the bucket was entered. The typical sequence.would be as follows: Page 1 1) Enter the debugger for a given process and create one or more timing buckets (with the TB command). 2) Set a break point to stop execu'tion at some point. 3) Go. 4) When the breakpoint is reached print the timing summary (with the PT command). 5) Use the End Timing command to remove all buckets. The new commands are as follows: BT expr The Begin Timing specifies the process number. If the Begin Timing command is not given the current process is assumed. A process number of zero can be used to indicate domain O. TB addrl addr2 A Timing Bucket is created from addrl to addr2. PT Print Timing summary. printed as follows: There are five columns 1) Bucket number 2) Total time in this bucket 3) Number of times this bucket was entered 4) Starting address for this bucket 5) Ending address for this bucket End Timing prints tne timing summary and removes all of the timing buckets. KB expr Kill Bucket can be used to remove a single bucket. RT Reset Times will reset the timing and count tables leaving the current definition of the bucKets intact. NOTES: 1) All addresses are in the same process. 2) The process number is defined by either the BT command or the first TB, PT, KB or RT command. If the process number is not given in the BT command the current process is assumed. Sysmgr The Sysmgr has been modified so that the connection with the Apple is more rel iable. To establ ish the Page 2 connection with the Apple do the following: 1) Type ~A~ 2) Type ~y~ 3) Boot the Apple with either the …
