* perf bench: Fix confused variable namings and descriptions in mem subsystemHitoshi Mitake2012-07-022-80/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words "cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c. With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event. But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle". v2: modified Documentation/perf-bench.txt for the descriptions of --cycle option Signed-off-by: Hitoshi Mitake <h.mitake@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1341236777-18457-1-git-send-email-h.mitake@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

* perf tool: Fix perf stack to non executable on x86_64Jiri Olsa2012-02-061-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By adding following objects: bench/mem-memset-x86-64-asm.o bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack. The reason was that above objects are assembler sourced and are missing the GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX. Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned objects, with all flags disabled, thus omiting those objects from linker stack flags decision.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are unnecessary #include <ctype.h> out there, and they might cause a nasty build failure in some environment.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "perf stat ... perf bench mem mem..." is pretty meaningless when using small block sizes (as the overhead of the invocation of each test run basically hides the actual test result in the noise).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Intended to be able to support the current selection of the preferred memcpy() implementation, this patch adds the ability to also measure the two alternative implementations, again by way of using some pre-processsor replacement. While on my Westmere system this proves that the movsb based variant is worse than the movsq based one (since the ERMS feature isn't there), it also shows that here for the default as well as small sizes the unrolled variant outperforms the movsq one.

* | perf bench: Make "default" memcpy() selection actually use glibc's ↵Jan Beulich2012-01-241-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implementation Since arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S implements not only __memcpy, but also memcpy, without further precautions this function will get chose by the static linker for resolving all references, and hence the "default" measurement didn't really measure anything else than the "x86-64-unrolled" one. Fix this by renaming (through the pre-processor) the conflicting symbol. On my Westmere system, the glibc variant turns out to require about 4% less instructions, but 15% more cycles for the default 1Mb block size measured.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 4.6.0 in Fedora rawhide turned up some compile errors in tools/perf due to the -Werror=unused-but-set-variable flag. I've gone through and annotated some of the assignments that had side effects (ie: return value from a function) with the __used annotation, and in some cases, just removed unused code. In a few cases, we were assigning something useful, but not using it in later parts of the function. kyle@dreadnought:~/src% gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.6.0 20110122 (Red Hat 4.6.0-0.3) Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <20110124161304.GK27353@bombadil.infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> [ committer note: Fixed up the annotation fixes, as that code moved recently ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now we'll got this instead: bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’ bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’ Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel hackers should be already used to this. With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER. Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.

* perf: Fix endianness argument compatibility with OPT_BOOLEAN() and introduce ↵Ian Munsie2010-04-142-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OPT_INCR() Parsing an option from the command line with OPT_BOOLEAN on a bool data type would not work on a big-endian machine due to the manner in which the boolean was being cast into an int and incremented. For example, running 'perf probe --list' on a PowerPC machine would fail to properly set the list_events bool and would therefore print out the usage information and terminate. This patch makes OPT_BOOLEAN work as expected with a bool datatype. For cases where the original OPT_BOOLEAN was intentionally being used to increment an int each time it was passed in on the command line, this patch introduces OPT_INCR with the old behaviour of OPT_BOOLEAN (the verbose variable is currently the only such example of this). I have reviewed every use of OPT_BOOLEAN to verify that a true C99 bool was passed. Where integers were used, I verified that they were only being used for boolean logic and changed them to bools to ensure that they would not be mistakenly used as ints. The major exception was the verbose variable which now uses OPT_INCR instead of OPT_BOOLEAN. Signed-off-by: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au.ibm.com> Acked-by: David S.

* perf bench: Clean up bench/bench.hIngo Molnar2009-11-101-9/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clean up initializers in bench.h: - No need to break the line for function prototypes, they are more readable in a single line. (even if checkpatch complains about it - We try to align definitions / structure fields vertically, to make it all a bit more readable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ingo reported this small 'perf bench sched pipe' output problem: | $ ./perf bench sched pipe | (executing 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks) | | Total time:4.898 sec | $ 4.898586 usecs/op | 204140 ops/sec | | the shell prompt came back before the usecs/op and ops/sec line | was printed. Process teardown race, lack of wait() or so? This caused by lack of calling waitpid() by parent process, so I added it.
