CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID clock doesn't increment seconds



The following test case works fine on Core3 but
fails on Core6.

$cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg)

$ cat test.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <time.h>

int main(void) {
int i;
struct timespec start_rt, start_id;
struct timespec now_rt, now_id;

clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &start_rt);
clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, &start_id);

for(i=0; i<5; i++) {
if(clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &now_rt)!=0)
{
fprintf(stderr, "Error!\n");
return 1;
}
if(clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, &now_id))
{
fprintf(stderr, "Error!\n");
return 1;
}

// First column CLOCK_REALTIME
printf("%d.%d\t", now_rt.tv_sec - start_rt.tv_sec,
now_rt.tv_nsec - start_rt.tv_nsec);

// Second column CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
printf("%d.%d\t", now_id.tv_sec - start_id.tv_sec,
now_id.tv_nsec - start_id.tv_nsec);
printf("\n");
sleep(1);
}

return 0;
}

$ gcc test.c -lrt

However on Core6:

$cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora Core release 6 (Zod)

$ gcc test.c -lrt
$ ./a.out
0.5000 0.69347

4.3417000 0.213781

Note the seconds don't increment on the right
column.
