Hi Gary,
I found the function gettimeofday() which returns the time  in  us.
I create a simple application with eCos containing 1 thread,i like to
measure the
execution time(us) of the thread.

void taska(cyg_addrword_t data)
{
struct timeval tv1,tv2;
long long diff;

while(1)
{
gettimeofday (&tv1, NULL);

cyg_mutex_lock(&cliblock);
printf("TASKA \n");
cyg_mutex_unlock(&cliblock);

cyg_thread_delay(2);

gettimeofday (&tv2, NULL);
diff=(tv2.tv_sec-tv1.tv_sec) * 1000000 + (tv2.tv_usec-tv1.tv_usec);

printf("Time tv1 is %d\n",tv1.tv_usec);
printf("Time tv2 is %d\n",tv2.tv_usec);
printf("The diff is =%d usec\n",diff);
};
}

when i run this application in Tsim(simulator of Leon3):
Time tv1 is 286326803
Time tv2 is 286326801
The diff is -1 usec
Can you tell me what the fault in my program?
