time problem

[fang zhengshu]

these days I try to use another way to test the time used by the operation:
I use l4_rdtsc() function,but after I using it as following:

#include <l4/util/rdtsc.h>
...
...
l4_cpu_time_t tsc1,tsc2;
l4_uint32_t args;
...
...
tsc1 = l4_rdtsc();
...
/*operations*/
...
tsc2 = l4_rdtsc();
args = l4_tsc_to_us(tsc2 - tsc1);
printf("start_tsc = %ld\n end_tsc = %ld\n us_time = %u",tsc1,tsc2,args);

why can't I test the time?
for example,one result is:
tsc1 = -2036300143
tsc2 = 1
us_time = 3129796927

thank you!
