Title: latency measure
Description:
This benchmark measures the latency of selected capabilities of both the VxMicro
nanokernel and microkernel.
IMPORTANT: The sample output below was generated using a simulation
environment, and may not reflect the results that will be generated using other
environments (simulated or otherwise).

Building and Running Project:
This microkernel project outputs to the console. It can be built and executed
on QEMU as follows:
make pristine
make NODE1.qemu

Sample Output:
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| VxMicro Nanokernel Latency Benchmark |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| tcs = timer clock cycles: 1 tcs is N nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 1- Measure time to switch from fiber to ISR execution |
| switching time is NNNN tcs = NNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 2- Measure time to switch from ISR back to interrupted fiber |
| switching time is NNNN tcs = NNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 3- Measure time from ISR to executing a different fiber (rescheduled) |
| switching time is NNNN tcs = NNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 4- Measure average context switch time between fibers |
| Average context switch time is NNNN tcs = NNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 5- Measure average time to lock then unlock interrupts |
| 5.1- When each lock and unlock is executed as a function call |
| Average time for lock then unlock is NNNN tcs = NNNN nsec |
| |
| 5.2- When each lock and unlock is executed as inline function call |
| Average time for lock then unlock is NNN tcs = NNNN nsec |

|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 1- Measure time to switch from ISR to back to interrupted task |
| switching time is NNNN tcs = NNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 2- Measure time from ISR to executing a different task (rescheduled) |
| switch time is NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 3- Measure average time to signal a sema then test that sema |
| Average semaphore signal time NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
| Average semaphore test time NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 4- Measure average time to lock a mutex then unlock that mutex |
| Average time to lock the mutex NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
| Average time to unlock the mutex NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 5- Measure average context switch time between tasks using (task_yield) |
| Average task context switch using yield NNNNN tcs = NNNNNN nsec |
