Abstract:
A thread executing a task at a node in a multi-socket computing system may access a first data structure to obtain a first calibration dataset for the node. The first thread may generate a timestamp based on the first calibration dataset and a first quantity of time measured by a clock at the first node. The real-time duration of the task may be determined based on the timestamp. The first thread may recalibrate the first clock by at least generating, based on the first quantity of time measured by the clock and a second quantity of time measured by a wall clock of an operating system of the multi-socket computing system, a second calibration dataset. The first thread may update the first data structure to include the second calibration dataset while a second thread accesses a second data structure to obtain calibration data.
