perf bench futex: Support operations for shared futexes

2014-09-29T18:43:21+00:00

Unlike futex-hash, requeuing and wakeup benchmarks do not support shared futexes, limiting the usefulness of the programs. Correct this, and allow using the local -S parameter. The default remains using private futexes.

perf bench: Add futex-hash microbenchmark

2014-03-14T14:20:43+00:00

Introduce futexes to perf-bench and add a program that stresses and measures the kernel's implementation of the hash table. This is a multi-threaded program that simply measures the amount of failed futex wait calls - we only want to deal with the hashing overhead, so a negative return of futex_wait_setup() is enough to do the trick. An example run: $ perf bench futex hash -t 32 Run summary [PID 10989]: 32 threads, each operating on 1024 [private] futexes for 10 secs. [thread 0] futexes: 0x19d9b10 ... 0x19dab0c [ 418713 ops/sec ] [thread 1] futexes: 0x19daca0 ... 0x19dbc9c [ 469913 ops/sec ] [thread 2] futexes: 0x19dbe30 ... 0x19dce2c [ 479744 ops/sec ] ...
