Hi, I came across this patch in OMPI opal. https://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2010/12/8819.php
I am looking to add similar support for armv8-A but I have a small query regarding the implementation of *opal_sys_timer_get_cycles *for AMRv7-A. It uses the Linux *times *function which returns the time in *ticks *and not * cycles*. However , functions calling it like *opal_timer_base_get_usec *in* mca/timer/linux/timer_linux.h *assume the return value in cycles. Is there a mismatch in terms of units? Can anyone please tell if I am missing something here? P.s: I contacted the author of above patch and was directed here. -- Abhishek
