Description (last modified by mmadia)

I was trying to run BeRometer to do some performance testing and it complains about this symbol missing. The symbol is in libroot.so on BeOS R 5.

But it's also private API. Nevertheless, a nice API to enumerate the hardware (something more/better than the info that is in the device tree) would be appreciated.

Yeah, it's private API. Some other programs are also using it. Should we add a stub for the method/symbol and get around to flushing it out later when doing the stack of nice-to-haves?

long get_nth_pci_info(long index,pci_info *info) 
{ 
    pci_module_info *mod_info; 
    if(mod_info->get_nth_pci_info(index,info)) 
        return B_NO_ERROR; 
    else  
        return B_ERROR; 
}

Please explain what are you trying to do here. Thanks.

BTW, read the Coding Guidelines too. ;-)

Im provided a BeOS R5 compatible callback for get_nth_pci_info() function which we have in pci bus manager but not in libroot.so

mod_info is unset, your code will most probably crash at pointer dereference on next line. You clearly never test this code ;-)

Replying to diver:

Thanks! BeRometer works good, but whetstone test deadlocks Haiku ;).

Too bad that this program does not save the results in columns. And that does not save what means another results.

Could you check this program - BeBench?

My CPU is Athlon 64 3500+.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Patch applied in hrev50554. BeRoMeter now works. I didn't retry the whetstone test. I also noticed that the BeRoMeter installer complains that I have only -94MB of RAM. I guess it overflows somewhere when there are more than 2GB on the system, but I could test diver's binary.
