[Gems-users] magic-call.c

[arrvindh shriraman <arrvindh_shriraman@xxxxxxxxx>]

In the ruby/simics there exists a file magic_call.c. Is this used at all ? 
 
 It includes a file magic-services.def which I can't find in the release.
 It also makes use of magic_service_mnemonics which I presume is the definition of magic calls specific to ruby. 
 
 I have my own  magic calls which I am currently including in commands.C
 I just don't want to stomp over existing ruby magic service numbers.
 
 What do the service numbers 3,4 which match to 
 g_system_ptr->getProfiler()->startTransaction(SIMICS_current_processor_number());
 g_system_ptr->getProfiler()->endTransaction(SIMICS_current_processor_number());
 actually profile ? 
 
 My understanding is that this transaction used to indicate profiling of loops, web transactions etc.
 
 Thanks
