Subject: Bench for testing scheduler
Hi,
During the Energy-aware scheduling mini-summit, we spoke about benches
that should be used to evaluate the modifications of the scheduler.
I’d like to propose a bench that uses cyclictest to measure the wake
up latency and the power consumption. The goal of this bench is to
exercise the scheduler with various sleeping period and get the
average wakeup latency. The range of the sleeping period must cover
all residency times of the idle state table of the platform. I have
run such tests on a tc2 platform with the packing tasks patchset.
I have use the following command:
#cyclictest -t <number of cores> -q -e 10000000 -i <500-12000> -d 150 -l 2000
The figures below give the average wakeup latency and power
consumption for default scheduler behavior, packing tasks at cluster
level and packing tasks at core level. We can see both wakeup latency
and power consumption variation. The detailed result is not a simple
single value which makes comparison not so easy but the average of all
measurements should give us a usable “score”.
I know that Ingo would like to add the benches in Tools/* but I wonder
if it make sense to copy cyclictest in this directory when we have an
official git tree here:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clrkwllms/rt-tests.git
I have put both final "score" and detailed results below so everybody
can check the score vs detailed figures:
