perf-bench(1)
=============
NAME
----
perf-bench - General framework for benchmark suites
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf bench' [<common options>] <subsystem> <suite> [<options>]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This 'perf bench' command is a general framework for benchmark suites.
COMMON OPTIONS
--------------
-f::
--format=::
Specify format style.
Current available format styles are:
'default'::
Default style. This is mainly for human reading.
---------------------
% perf bench sched pipe # with no style specified
(executing 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks)
Total time:5.855 sec
5.855061 usecs/op
170792 ops/sec
---------------------
'simple'::
This simple style is friendly for automated
processing by scripts.
---------------------
% perf bench --format=simple sched pipe # specified simple
5.988
---------------------
SUBSYSTEM
---------
'sched'::
Scheduler and IPC mechanisms.
'mem'::
Memory access performance.
'all'::
All benchmark subsystems.
SUITES FOR 'sched'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*messaging*::
Suite for evaluating performance of scheduler and IPC mechanisms.
Based on hackbench by Rusty Russell.
Options of *messaging*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-p::
--pipe::
Use pipe() instead of socketpair()
-t::
--thread::
Be multi thread instead of multi process
-g::
--group=::
Specify number of groups
-l::
--loop=::
Specify number of loops
Example of *messaging*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
---------------------
% perf bench sched messaging # run with default
options (20 sender and receiver processes per group)
(10 groups == 400 processes run)
Total time:0.308 sec
% perf bench sched messaging -t -g 20 # be multi-thread, with 20 groups
(20 sender and receiver threads per group)
(20 groups == 800 threads run)
Total time:0.582 sec
---------------------
*pipe*::
Suite for pipe() system call.
Based on pipe-test-1m.c by Ingo Molnar.
Options of *pipe*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-l::
--loop=::
Specify number of loops.
Example of *pipe*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
---------------------
% perf bench sched pipe
(executing 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks)
Total time:8.091 sec
8.091833 usecs/op
123581 ops/sec
% perf bench sched pipe -l 1000 # loop 1000
(executing 1000 pipe operations between two tasks)
Total time:0.016 sec
16.948000 usecs/op
59004 ops/sec
---------------------
SUITES FOR 'mem'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*memcpy*::
Suite for evaluating performance of simple memory copy in various ways.
Options of *memcpy*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-l::
--length::
Specify length of memory to copy (default: 1MB).
Available units are B, KB, MB, GB and TB (case insensitive).
-r::
--routine::
Specify routine to copy (default: default).
Available routines are depend on the architecture.
On x86-64, x86-64-unrolled, x86-64-movsq and x86-64-movsb are supported.
-i::
--iterations::
Repeat memcpy invocation this number of times.
-c::
--cycle::
Use perf's cpu-cycles event instead of gettimeofday syscall.
-o::
--only-prefault::
Show only the result with page faults before memcpy.
-n::
--no-prefault::
Show only the result without page faults before memcpy.
*memset*::
Suite for evaluating performance of simple memory set in various ways.
Options of *memset*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-l::
--length::
Specify length of memory to set (default: 1MB).
Available units are B, KB, MB, GB and TB (case insensitive).
-r::
--routine::
Specify routine to set (default: default).
Available routines are depend on the architecture.
On x86-64, x86-64-unrolled, x86-64-stosq and x86-64-stosb are supported.
-i::
--iterations::
Repeat memset invocation this number of times.
-c::
--cycle::
Use perf's cpu-cycles event instead of gettimeofday syscall.
-o::
--only-prefault::
Show only the result with page faults before memset.
-n::
--no-prefault::
Show only the result without page faults before memset.
