2019-01-24perfmon plugin: 2-way parallel stat collectionDave Barach3-143/+228
As a FUD reduction measure, this patch implements 2-way parallel counter collection. Synthetic stat component counter pairs run at the same time. Running two counters (of any kind) at the same time naturally reduces the aggregate time required by an approximate factor-of-2, depending on whether an even or odd number of stats have been requested. I don't completely buy the argument that computing synthetic stats such as instructions-per-clock will be inaccurate if component counter values are collected sequentially. Given uniform traffic pattern, it must make no difference. As the collection interval increases, the difference between serial and parallel component counter collection will approach zero, see also the Central Limit theorem.

2018-12-17Improve perfmon json table pickerDave Barach4-23/+341
Built a tool to chew up https://download.01.org/perfmon/mapfile.csv, and output a table in this format: typedef struct { u8 model; u8 stepping; u8 has_stepping; char *filename; } file_by_model_and_stepping_t; static const file_by_model_and_stepping_t fms_table [] = { /* model, stepping, stepping valid, file */ { 0x2E, 0x0, 0, "NehalemEX_core_V2.json" }, { 0x1E, 0x0, 0, "NehalemEP_core_V2.json" }, <snip> { 0x55, 0x5, 1, "cascadelakex_core_v1.00.json" }, { 0x55, 0x6, 1, "cascadelakex_core_v1.00.json" }, { 0x55, 0x7, 1, "cascadelakex_core_v1.00.json" }, <snip> Change-Id: Ie0e8a7e851799e9d060b966047745039c066ec7b Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>

2018-10-25Add x86_64 perfmon tablesDave Barach3-20/+10
The license issue is resolved, so we can package the .json files. Added to the vpp-dev package in .tar.xz form, which saves a lot of space. Updated the perfmon error log entry: tell folks where to find the compressed tarball, and how to extract it.
