Subject: [PATCH 02/14] perf/bench: Default to all routines in 'perf bench mem'
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2015 10:04:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1445241870-24854-3-git-send-email-mingo@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1445241870-24854-1-git-send-email-mingo@kernel.org>
So few people know that the --routine option to 'perf bench memcpy/memset' exists,
and would not know that it's capable of testing the kernel's memcpy/memset
implementations.
Furthermore, 'perf bench mem all' will not run all routines:
vega:~> perf bench mem all
# Running mem/memcpy benchmark...
Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
894.454383 MB/Sec
3.844734 GB/Sec (with prefault)
# Running mem/memset benchmark...
Routine default (Default memset() provided by glibc)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
1.220703 GB/Sec
9.042245 GB/Sec (with prefault)
Because misleadingly the 'all' refers to 'all sub-benchmarks', not 'all sub-benchmarks
and routines'.
Fix all this by making the memcpy/memset routine to default to 'all', which results in
all the benchmarks being run:
triton:~> perf bench mem all
# Running mem/memcpy benchmark...
Routine default (Default memcpy() provided by glibc)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
1.448906 GB/Sec
4.957170 GB/Sec (with prefault)
Routine x86-64-unrolled (unrolled memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
1.614153 GB/Sec
4.379204 GB/Sec (with prefault)
Routine x86-64-movsq (movsq-based memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...
1.570036 GB/Sec
4.264465 GB/Sec (with prefault)
Routine x86-64-movsb (movsb-based memcpy() in arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S)
# Copying 1MB Bytes ...

6.554111 GB/Sec (with prefault)
