From d4505b895f2aa577a6b974ab4bd0a1fd0db60ceb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wilco Dijkstra Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2017 16:27:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Add math benchmark latency test This patch further improves math function benchmarking by adding a latency test in addition to throughput. This enables more accurate comparisons of the math functions. The latency test works by creating a dependency on the previous iteration: func_res = F (func_res * zero + input[i]). The multiply by zero avoids changing the input. It reports reciprocal throughput and latency in nanoseconds (depending on the timing header used) and max/min throughput in iterations per second: "workload-spec2006.wrf": { "reciprocal-throughput": 100, "latency": 200, "max-throughput": 1.0e+07, "min-throughput": 5.0e+06 } * benchtests/bench-skeleton.c (main): Add support for latency benchmarking. * benchtests/scripts/bench.py: Add support for latency benchmarking. --- ChangeLog | 6 ++++++ benchtests/bench-skeleton.c | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++---- benchtests/scripts/bench.py | 20 ++++++++++++++------ 3 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index f11f6e11c7e..08207b1c4e0 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +2017-08-17 Wilco Dijkstra + + * benchtests/bench-skeleton.c (main): Add support for + latency benchmarking. + * benchtests/scripts/bench.py: Add support for latency benchmarking. + 2017-08-17 H.J.
