Hi,
I have a question: how to measure the cycles of a function multiple times automatically in the simulator?
More specific, I have the following C file main function and want to measure the cycles of the function xyz() inside the for loop 100 times and save the cycles somewhere. So I can analyze the cycles of the function in different scenario (different input data abc):
main()
{
for(i=0; i<100; i++)
{
// the code to read input data from a file to the variable abc
xyz(abc);
}
}
I know that if I set the breakpoint before the function xyz() and configure the profiles in the simulator for measuring cycles, I can measure the function cycles manually 100 times to reach my goal. However, my question is: is there any way to measure the cycles 100 times automatically, maybe by configuring simulator in certain way?
Thanks in advance.
