-## Process startup time (bionic-spawn-benchmarks)
-
-The `spawn/` subdirectory has a few benchmarks measuring the time used to start simple programs
-(e.g. Toybox's `true` and `sh -c true`). Run it on a device like so:
-
- m bionic-spawn-benchmarks
- adb root
- adb sync data
- adb shell /data/benchmarktest/bionic-spawn-benchmarks/bionic-spawn-benchmarks
- adb shell /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-spawn-benchmarks/bionic-spawn-benchmarks
-
-Google Benchmark reports both a real-time figure ("Time") and a CPU usage figure. For these
-benchmarks, the CPU measurement only counts time spent in the thread calling `posix_spawn`, not that
-spent in the spawned process. The real-time is probably more useful, and it is the figure used to
-determine the iteration count.
-
-Locking the CPU frequency seems to improve the results of these benchmarks significantly, and it
-reduces variability.
-
-## Google Benchmark notes
-
-### Repetitions
-
-Google Benchmark uses two settings to control how many times to run each benchmark, "iterations" and
-"repetitions". By default, the repetition count is one. Google Benchmark runs the benchmark a few
-times to determine a sufficiently-large iteration count.
-
-Google Benchmark can optionally run a benchmark run repeatedly and report statistics (median, mean,
-standard deviation) for the runs. To do so, pass the `--benchmark_repetitions` option, e.g.:
-
- # ./bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --benchmark_repetitions=4
- ...
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- Benchmark Time CPU Iterations
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 27.7 ns 27.7 ns 25290525
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 27.7 ns 27.7 ns 25290525
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 27.7 ns 27.7 ns 25290525
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 27.8 ns 27.7 ns 25290525
- BM_stdlib_strtoll_mean 27.7 ns 27.7 ns 4
- BM_stdlib_strtoll_median 27.7 ns 27.7 ns 4
- BM_stdlib_strtoll_stddev 0.023 ns 0.023 ns 4
-
-There are 4 runs, each with 25290525 iterations. Measurements for the individual runs can be
-suppressed if they aren't needed:
-
- # ./bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --benchmark_repetitions=4 --benchmark_report_aggregates_only

-
-### CPU frequencies
-
-To get consistent results between runs, it can sometimes be helpful to restrict a benchmark to
-specific cores, or to lock cores at specific frequencies. Some phones have a big.LITTLE core setup,
-or at least allow some cores to run at higher frequencies than others.
-
-A core can be selected for `bionic-benchmarks` using the `--bionic_cpu` option or using the
-`taskset` utility. e.g. A Pixel 3 device has 4 Kryo 385 Silver cores followed by 4 Gold cores:
-
- blueline:/ # /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --bionic_cpu=0
- ...
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- Benchmark Time CPU Iterations
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 64.2 ns 63.6 ns 11017493
-
- blueline:/ # /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --bionic_cpu=4
- ...
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- Benchmark Time CPU Iterations
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 21.8 ns 21.7 ns 33167103
-
-A similar result can be achieved using `taskset`. The first parameter is a bitmask of core numbers
-to pass to `sched_setaffinity`:
-
- blueline:/ # taskset f /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll
- ...
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- Benchmark Time CPU Iterations
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 64.3 ns 63.6 ns 10998697
-
- blueline:/ # taskset f0 /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll
- ...
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- Benchmark Time CPU Iterations
- ------------------------------------------------------------
- BM_stdlib_strtoll 21.3 ns 21.2 ns 33094801
-
-To lock the CPU frequency, use the sysfs interface at `/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/`.
-Changing the scaling governor to `performance` suppresses the warning that Google Benchmark
-otherwise prints:
-
- ***WARNING*** CPU scaling is enabled, the benchmark real time measurements may be noisy and will incur extra overhead.
-
-Some devices have a `perf-setup.sh` script that locks CPU and GPU frequencies. Some TradeFed
-benchmarks appear to be using the script. For more information:
- * run `get_build_var BOARD_PERFSETUP_SCRIPT`
- * run `m perf-setup.sh` to install the script into `${OUT}/data/local/tmp/perf-setup.sh`
- * see: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/platform_testing/+/refs/heads/master/scripts/perf-setup/
