Reason for Change: Changing CLOCK_REALTIME to CLOCK_MONOTONIC to avoid clock drifts impact in the calculations
Test Procedure: When Telemetry report generation is in progress change the time. The processing time should have a valid value
Risks: Low
Priority: P1

Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes invalid time values in telemetry report generation caused by system clock drift by changing timing measurements from CLOCK_REALTIME to CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

  • Changed all elapsed time measurements from CLOCK_REALTIME to CLOCK_MONOTONIC to prevent clock drift from affecting duration calculations
  • Improved log messages in profilexconf.c for better clarity and consistency

Reviewed Changes

Copilot reviewed 2 out of 2 changed files in this pull request and generated no comments.

File Description
source/bulkdata/profilexconf.c Updated three clock_gettime calls to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC for measuring start time, processing time, and elapsed time; improved log messages for execution count and processing time
source/bulkdata/profile.c Updated two clock_gettime calls to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC for measuring start and end times of report collection and generation

Coverity Issue - Data race condition

Accessing "profile->grepSeekProfile->execCounter" without holding lock "plMutex". Elsewhere, "_GrepSeekProfile.execCounter" is written to with "plMutex" held 2 out of 2 times.

The error message "Error in Fetching the time Elapsed" is grammatically incorrect and unclear. Consider revising to "Error fetching elapsed time" or "Failed to get time from clock_gettime()" to be more concise and accurate.

Suggested change
T2Warning("Error in Fetching the time Elapsed");
T2Warning("Failed to get time from clock_gettime()");
