Benchmark needles which exhibit worst-case performance. This shows that
basic_strstr is quadratic and thus unsuitable for large needles.
On the other hand the Two-way and new strstr implementations are linear with
increasing needle sizes. The slowest cases of the two implementations are
within a factor of 2 on several different microarchitectures. Two-way is
slowest on inputs which cause a branch mispredict on almost every character.
The new strstr is slowest on inputs which almost match and result in many
calls to memcmp. Thanks to Szabolcs for providing various hard needles.

Improve string benchtest timing. Many tests run for 0.01s which is way too
short to give accurate results. Other tests take over 40 seconds which is
way too long. Significantly increase the iterations of the short running
tests. Reduce number of alignment variations in the long running memcpy walk
tests so they take less than 5 seconds.
As a result most tests take at least 0.1s and all finish within 5 seconds.

Benchmarks should reflect distribution build policies, so it makes
sense to honor the BIND_NOW configuration for them.
This commit keeps using $(+link-tests), so that the benchmarks are
linked according to the --enable-hardcoded-path-in-tests configure
option.

Reduce the total time taken by benchtests. The malloc thread test takes 4
minutes to run which is significantly more than most other tests. Reduce
this to a more reasonable 40 seconds. The math tests take 10 seconds each,
eventhough all they do is loop on the same input. Anything more than 1
second runtime is way overkill, so set the limit to 1 second.

Improve bench-strstr by using an extract from the manual as the input
to make the test more realistic. Use the same input for both found and
fail cases rather than using a memset of '0' for most of the string,
which measures performance of strchr rather than strstr. Add result
checking to catch potential errors. Remove the repeated tests at slightly
different alignments and add more large needle and haystack testcases.

The GNU Coding Standards specify that line breaks in expressions
should go before an operator, not after one. This patch fixes various
code to do this. It only changes code that appears to be mostly
following GNU style anyway, not files and directories with
substantially different formatting. It is not exhaustive even for
files using GNU style (for example, changes to sysdeps files are
deferred for subsequent cleanups). Some files changed are shared with
gnulib, but most are specific to glibc. Changes were made manually,
with places to change found by grep (so some cases, e.g. where the
operator was followed by a comment at end of line, are particularly
liable to have been missed by grep, but I did include cases where the
operator was followed by backslash-newline).
This patch generally does not attempt to address other coding style
issues in the expressions changed (for example, missing spaces before
'(', or lack of parentheses to ensure indentation of continuation
lines properly reflects operator precedence).

This patch makes Python 3.4 or later a required tool for building
glibc, so allowing changes of awk, perl etc. code used in the build
and test to Python code without any such changes needing makefile
conditionals or to handle older Python versions.
This patch makes the configure test for Python check the version and
give an error if Python is missing or too old, and removes makefile
conditionals that are no longer needed. It does not itself convert
any code from another language to Python, and does not remove any
compatibility with older Python versions from existing scripts.
Tested for x86_64.

The argparse library is used on compare_bench script to improve command line
argument parsing. The 'schema validation file' is now optional, reducing by
one the number of required parameters.
* benchtests/scripts/compare_bench.py (__main__): use the argparse
library to improve command line parsing.
(__main__): make schema file as optional parameter (--schema),
defaulting to benchtests/scripts/benchout.schema.json.
(main): move out of the parsing stuff to __main_ and leave it
only as caller of main comparison functions.

Improve strstr performance. Strstr tends to be slow because it uses
many calls to memchr and a slow byte loop to scan for the next match.
Performance is significantly improved by using strnlen on larger blocks
and using strchr to search for the next matching character. strcasestr
can also use strnlen to scan ahead, and memmem can use memchr to check
for the next match.
On the GLIBC bench tests the performance gains on Cortex-A72 are:
strstr: +25%
strcasestr: +4.3%
memmem: +18%
On a 256KB dataset strstr performance improves by 67%, strcasestr by 47%.

On x86-64, there may be multiple IFUNC implementations for a given
function. But we may be only interested in a subset of them. This
patch adds -f/--functions argument to compare a subset of IFUNC
implementations.
* benchtests/scripts/compare_strings.py (process_results): Add
funcs argument. Compare only functions which are selected.
(main): Check if base function is among selected functions.
Pass selected functions to process_results.
(__main__): Add -f/--functions argument.
|
|
Catch runtime exceptions in case the user provided: wrong base
function, attribute(s) or input file. In any of the latter, quit
immediately with non-zero return code.
* benchtests/scripts/compare_string.py: (process_results) Catch
exception in non-existent base_func and catch exception in
non-existent attribute.
(parse_file) Catch exception in non-existent input file.

Having a string comparison report with neither diff numbers nor header
yields a more useful output to be consumed by other tools.
* benchtests/scripts/compare_string.py: Add --no-diff and --no-header
options to avoid diff calculation and omit header, respectively.
(main): process --no-diff and --no-header
|

This is a minor style change to move the definition of I to its usage
scope instead of at the top of the function. This is consistent with
glibc style guidelines and more importantly it was getting in the way
of my testing.
* benchtests/bench-memcpy-walk.c (do_test): Move declaration
of I into loop header.
* benchtests/bench-memmove-walk.c (do_test): Likewise.
|
|
Add an undefine of attribute_hidden since it may be defined in some cases
(it must be defined since it is used by some hp-timing configurations).
* benchtests/bench-timing.h (attribute_hidden): Undefine.

Currently the benchtests are run with internal GLIBC headers, which is incorrect.
Defining _ISOMAC in the makefile ensures the internal headers are bypassed.
Fix all tests which were relying on internal defines or includes.
* benchtests/Makefile: Define _ISOMAC.
* benchtests/bench-strcoll.c: Add missing sys/stat.h include.
* benchtests/bench-string.h: Define inhibit_loop_to_libcall macro.
* benchtests/bench-strstr.c: Define empty libc_hidden_builtin_def.
* benchtests/bench-strtok.c (oldstrtok): Use rawmemchr.
* benchtests/bench-timing.h: Define attribute_hidden.

The 0 length strncmp is interesting for correctness but not for
performance.
* benchtests/bench-strncmp.c (test_main): Remove 0 length tests.
(do_test_limit): Likewise.
|
|
Don't reuse buffers for different strncmp implementations since the
earlier implementation will end up warming the cache for the later
one. Eventually there should be a more elegant way to do this.
* benchtests/bench-strncmp.c (do_test_limit): Reallocate buffers
for every implementation.
(do_test): Likewise.

|
Make the output usable through the compare_strings.py script.
* benchtests/bench-strncmp.c: Convert output to json.

Remove the slow paths from pow. Like several other double precision math
functions, pow is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions
and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher
precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns
of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers.
All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 (with ULP of pow set to 1).
The worst case error is ~0.506ULP. A simple test over a few hundred million
values shows pow is 10% faster on average. This fixes BZ #13932.

The benchamrk result can now be studied using the compare_strings.py
script.
* benchtests/bench-memcmp.c: Print json instead of plain text.
|
|
Keeping the buffers the same across test runs gives later invocations
the advantage since they access cached data. Reallocate so that all
test runs are on equal grounds.
* benchtests/bench-memcmp.c (do_test): Call realloc_buf for
every test run.

* All files with FSF copyright notices: Update copyright dates
using scripts/update-copyrights.
* locale/programs/charmap-kw.h: Regenerated.
* locale/programs/locfile-kw.h: Likewise.

This patch adds BENCHSET variable to benchtests/Makefile in order to
provide the capability to run a list of subsets of benchmark tests, ie;
make bench BENCHSET="bench-pthread bench-math malloc-thread"
This helps users to benchmark specific glibc area
ChangeLog:
* benchtests/Makefile:Add BENCHSET to allow subsets of
benchmarks to be run.
* benchtests/README: Add documentation for: Running subsets of
benchmarks.

When executing bench-math the benchmark output is invalid with this
error msg:
Invalid benchmark output: 'workload-spec2006.wrf' does not match any of
the regexes: '^[_a-zA-Z0-9]*$¹ or Invalid benchmark output: Additional
properties are not allowed ('workload-spec2006.wrf' was unexpected)
The error was seen when running the test:
workload-spec2006.wrf, 'stack=1024,guard=1' and 'stack=1024,guard=2'.
The problem is that the current regex's do not accept the hyphen, dot, equal
and comma in the output.
This patch changes the regex in benchout.schema.json to accept symbols in
benchmark tests names.
ChangeLog:
* benchtests/scripts/benchout.schema.json: Fix regex to accept a
wider range of tests names.
