From 9ec87fd2b11ffce5c27c8eacb9deaa20e2373ff5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Siddhesh Poyarekar Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 21:49:37 +0530 Subject: benchtests: Memory walking benchmark for memcpy This benchmark is an attempt to eliminate cache effects from string benchmarks. The benchmark walks both ways through a large memory area and copies different sizes of memory and alignments one at a time instead of looping around in the same memory area. This is a good metric to have alongside the other memcpy benchmarks, especially for larger sizes where the likelihood of the call being done only once is pretty high. * benchtests/bench-memcpy-walk.c: New file. * benchtests/Makefile (string-benchset): Add it. --- ChangeLog | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) (limited to 'ChangeLog') diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 7ddff74272..a86faeb792 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ +2017-10-05 Siddhesh Poyarekar + + * benchtests/bench-memcpy-walk.c: New file. + * benchtests/Makefile (string-benchset): Add it. + 2017-10-05 Florian Weimer nscd: Eliminate compilation time dependency in the build output. -- cgit v1.2.3
