Subject: [PATCH 3/3] perf: bench: fix memcpy/memset output
Date: Tue,  2 Dec 2014 16:50:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1417535441-3965-3-git-send-email-rabin.vincent@axis.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1417535441-3965-1-git-send-email-rabin.vincent@axis.com>

The memcpy and memset benchmarks return bogus results when iterations >
0 because the iterations value is not taken into account when
calculating the final result:

 $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 1
 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark:
 # Copying 1GB Bytes ...

       20.798669 GB/Sec (with prefault)
 $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 10
 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark:
 # Copying 1GB Bytes ...

        2.086576 GB/Sec (with prefault)
 $ perf bench mem memset --only-prefault --length 1GB --iterations 100
 # Running 'mem/memset' benchmark:
 # Copying 1GB Bytes ...

      212.840917 MB/Sec (with prefault)

Fix this.
