Method	Description
AcquireCycleCounter ( ) : CpuCycleCounterState	Initializes the processor cycle counter and starts counting the processor cycles. Call ReleaseCycleCounter to get the number of processor cycles passed.The cycle counters are not guaranteed to be syncronized across different processors/cores in a multiprocessor/multicore system. It is recommended to bind the current thread to a particular logical processor before using this function.

GetProcessABI ( ) : ABI	Provides information about the ABI of the running process.
GetTimerAccuracy ( ) : ulong	Detects the minimum time difference in nanoseconds which can be measured by the high-resolution system timer.
GetTimerFrequency ( ) : ulong	Queries the frequency (number of ticks per second) of the high-resolution system timer. The difference in ticks between two time moments divided by timer frequency gives the number of seconds between two time moments.

IsSupported ( CpuSimdFeature simdFeature ) : bool	Checks if the specified SIMD extension is supported by the processor.
IsSupported ( CpuSystemFeature systemFeature ) : bool	Checks if the specified non-ISA CPU or system extension is supported by the processor.
Release ( ) : void	Deinitializes Yeppp! library and releases all associated resources. This function is inteded for .Net libraries which might be unloaded (e.g. plugins) and should be called immediately before the module is unloaded.Calling Yeppp! functions after after a call to this method is prohibited and might crash the application.
ReleaseCycleCounter ( CpuCycleCounterState cycleCounter ) : ulong	Stops counting the processor cycles, releases the system resources associated with the cycle counter, and returns the number of cycles elapsed.

Method Details

AcquireCycleCounter() public static method

Initializes the processor cycle counter and starts counting the processor cycles.

Call ReleaseCycleCounter to get the number of processor cycles passed. The cycle counters are not guaranteed to be syncronized across different processors/cores in a multiprocessor/multicore system. It is recommended to bind the current thread to a particular logical processor before using this function.

The processor does not have a cycle counter or the operating system does not provide access to the CPU cycle counter If the attempt to read the cycle counter or release the OS resources failed inside the OS kernel.

public static AcquireCycleCounter ( ) : CpuCycleCounterState
return	CpuCycleCounterState

GetCpuArchitecture() public static method

Provides information about the architecture of the processor.

public static GetCpuArchitecture ( ) : CpuArchitecture
return	CpuArchitecture

GetCpuMicroarchitecture() public static method

Provides information about the microarchitecture of the processor.

public static GetCpuMicroarchitecture ( ) : CpuMicroarchitecture
return	CpuMicroarchitecture

GetCpuVendor() public static method

Provides information about the vendor of the processor.

public static GetCpuVendor ( ) : Yeppp.CpuVendor
return	Yeppp.CpuVendor

GetProcessABI() public static method

Provides information about the ABI of the running process.

public static GetProcessABI ( ) : ABI
return	ABI

GetTimerAccuracy() public static method

Detects the minimum time difference in nanoseconds which can be measured by the high-resolution system timer.

If the attempt to measure the accuracy of high-resolution timer failed inside the OS kernel.

public static GetTimerAccuracy ( ) : ulong
return	ulong

GetTimerFrequency() public static method

Queries the frequency (number of ticks per second) of the high-resolution system timer.

The difference in ticks between two time moments divided by timer frequency gives the number of seconds between two time moments.

The attempt to read the high-resolution timer frequency failed inside the OS kernel.

public static GetTimerFrequency ( ) : ulong
return	ulong

GetTimerTicks() public static method

Queries the ticks count of the high-resolution system timer.

The difference in ticks between two time moments divided by timer frequency gives the number of seconds between two time moments.

The attempt to read the high-resolution timer failed inside the OS kernel.

public static GetTimerTicks ( ) : ulong
return	ulong

GetVersion() public static method

Provides information about Yeppp! library version.

public static GetVersion ( ) : Version
return	Version

IsSupported() public static method

Checks if the specified ISA extension is supported by the processor.

public static IsSupported ( CpuIsaFeature isaFeature ) : bool
isaFeature	CpuIsaFeature	An object specifying the ISA extension of interest.
return	bool

IsSupported() public static method

Checks if the specified SIMD extension is supported by the processor.

public static IsSupported ( CpuSimdFeature simdFeature ) : bool
simdFeature	CpuSimdFeature	An object specifying the SIMD extension of interest.
return	bool

IsSupported() public static method

Checks if the specified non-ISA CPU or system extension is supported by the processor.

public static IsSupported ( CpuSystemFeature systemFeature ) : bool
systemFeature	CpuSystemFeature	An object specifying the non-ISA CPU or system extension of interest.
return	bool

Release() public static method

Deinitializes Yeppp! library and releases all associated resources.

This function is inteded for .Net libraries which might be unloaded (e.g. plugins) and should be called immediately before the module is unloaded. Calling Yeppp! functions after after a call to this method is prohibited and might crash the application.

Resources allocated by Yeppp! library could not be unloaded due to memory corruption. Yeppp! library is already released by this module.

public static Release ( ) : void
return	void

ReleaseCycleCounter() public static method

Stops counting the processor cycles, releases the system resources associated with the cycle counter, and returns the number of cycles elapsed.

The cycleCounter object is not a valid state of the cycle counter. This can happen if the cycleCounter object was released previously. The processor does not have a cycle counter or the operating system does not provide access to the CPU cycle counter If the attempt to read the cycle counter or release the OS resources failed inside the OS kernel.

public static ReleaseCycleCounter ( CpuCycleCounterState cycleCounter ) : ulong
cycleCounter	CpuCycleCounterState	An object representing the state of the cycle counter returned by . The cycle counter should be released only once, and this function invalidates the state object.
return	ulong
