Subject: [PATCH v9 2/3] x86,/proc/pid/status: Add AVX-512 usage elapsed time
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2019 02:59:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190211185931.4386-2-aubrey.li@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190211185931.4386-1-aubrey.li@intel.com>
AVX-512 components use could cause core turbo frequency drop. So
it's useful to expose AVX-512 usage elapsed time as a heuristic hint
for the user space job scheduler to cluster the AVX-512 using tasks
together.
Example:
$ cat /proc/pid/status | grep AVX512_elapsed_ms
AVX512_elapsed_ms: 1020
The number '1020' denotes 1020 millisecond elapsed since last time
context switch the off-CPU task using AVX-512 components, thus the
task could cause core frequency drop.
Or:
$ cat /proc/pid/status | grep AVX512_elapsed_ms
AVX512_elapsed_ms: -1
The number '-1' indicates the task didn't use AVX-512 components
before thus unlikely has frequency drop issue.
User space tools may want to further check by:
$ perf stat --pid <pid> -e core_power.lvl2_turbo_license -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for process id '3558':
3,251,565,961 core_power.lvl2_turbo_license
1.004031387 seconds time elapsed
Non-zero counter value confirms that the task causes frequency drop.
