Subject: [PATCH 12/12] vfio: selftests: Add vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test
Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2025 23:25:31 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251008232531.1152035-13-dmatlack@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251008232531.1152035-1-dmatlack@google.com>
Add a new VFIO selftest for measuring the time it takes to run
vfio_pci_device_init() in parallel for one or more devices.
This test serves as manual regression test for the performance
improvement of commit e908f58b6beb ("vfio/pci: Separate SR-IOV VF
dev_set"). For example, when running this test with 64 VFs under the
same PF:
Before:
$ ./vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test -r vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test.iommufd.init 0000:1a:00.0 0000:1a:00.1 ...
...
Wall time: 6.653234463s
Min init time (per device): 0.101215344s
Max init time (per device): 6.652755941s
Avg init time (per device): 3.377609608s
After:
$ ./vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test -r vfio_pci_device_init_perf_test.iommufd.init 0000:1a:00.0 0000:1a:00.1 ...
...
Wall time: 0.122978332s
Min init time (per device): 0.108121915s
Max init time (per device): 0.122762761s
Avg init time (per device): 0.113816748s
This test does not make any assertions about performance, since any such
assertion is likely to be flaky due to system differences and random
noise. However this test can be fed into automation to detect
regressions, and can be used by developers in the future to measure
performance optimizations.
