  For prop2, use GETCT instruction. WAITCNT is replaced by WAITCTx and ADDCTx for x=1,2,3

          getct   stime

  Hmm... I wonder how the new 64-bit CT register will handle rollover for wait and add...
  
  Guess it works out to be the same as with 32 bit CT register...

  Thank you, @Mark_T .

  Re-inventing the wheel is not a waste of time if, when you are done, you understand why it is round.

  Same as it does now. The only change is the cnt is extended to 64 bits and you can read the high 32bits. Otherwise those top 32 bits are hidden/unused.
