2016-10-24perf bench mem: Move boilerplate memory allocation to the infrastructureArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-47/+30
Instead of having all tests perform alloc/free, do it in the code that calls the do_cycles() and do_gettimeofday() functions.

2015-12-17perf subcmd: Create subcmd libraryJosh Poimboeuf1-1/+1
Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named libsubcmd.a. Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to 'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.

2015-10-19perf bench mem: Rename 'routine' to 'function'Ingo Molnar1-30/+30
So right now there's a somewhat inconsistent mess of the benchmarking code and options sometimes calling benchmarked functions 'functions', sometimes calling them 'routines'. Name them 'functions' consistently.

2015-10-19perf bench: Harmonize all the -l/--nr_loops optionsIngo Molnar1-11/+11
We have three benchmarking subsystems that specify some sort of 'number of loops' parameter - but all of them do it inconsistently: numa: -l/--nr_loops sched messaging: -l/--loops mem memset/memcpy: -i/--iterations Harmonize them to -l/--nr_loops by picking the numa variant - which is also the most likely one to have existing scripting which we don't want to break. Plus improve the parameter help texts to indicate the default value for the nr_loops variable to keep users from guessing ... Also propagate the naming to internal variables.

2015-10-19perf bench mem: Reorganize the code a bitIngo Molnar1-19/+19
Reorder functions a bit, so that we synchronize the layout of the memcpy() and memset() portions of the code. This improves the code, especially after we'll add an strlcpy() variant as well.

2015-10-19perf bench mem: Fix 'length' vs. 'size' naming confusionIngo Molnar1-46/+46
So 'perf bench mem memcpy/memset' consistently uses 'len' and 'length' for buffer sizes - while it's really a memory buffer size. (strings have length.) Rename all affected variables.

2015-10-19perf bench mem: Rename 'routine' to 'routine_str'Ingo Molnar1-6/+6
So bench/mem-functions.c has a 'routine' name for the routines parameter string, but a 'length_str' name for the length parameter string. We also have another entity named 'routine': 'struct routine'. This is inconsistent and confusing: rename 'routine' to 'routine_str'. Also fix typos in the --routine help text.

2015-10-19perf bench mem: Change 'cycle' to 'cycles'Ingo Molnar1-28/+28
So 'perf bench mem memset/memcpy' has a CPU cycles measurement method, but calls it 'cycle' (singular) throughout the code, which makes it harder to read. Rename all related functions, variables and options to a plural 'cycles' nomenclature.

2015-10-19perf bench: Remove the prefaulting complication from 'perf bench mem mem*'Ingo Molnar1-96/+50
So 'perf bench mem memcpy/memset' has elaborate code to measure memcpy()/memset() performance both with freshly allocated buffers (which includes initial page fault overhead) and with preallocated buffers. But the thing is, the resulting bandwidth results are mostly meaningless, because page faults dominate so much of the cost. It might make sense to measure cache cold vs. cache hot performance, but the code does not do this. So remove this complication, and always prefault the ranges before using them.

2015-10-19perf bench: Rename 'mem-memcpy.c' => 'mem-functions.c'Ingo Molnar1-0/+420
So mem-memcpy.c started out as a simple memcpy() benchmark, then it grew memset() functionality and now I plan to add string copy benchmarks as well. This makes the file name a misnomer: rename it to the more generic mem-functions.c name.
