#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# A tool for analysing the performance of the code snippets found in
# t/perf/benchmarks or similar


=head1 NAME

bench.pl - Compare the performance of perl code snippets across multiple
perls.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    # Basic: run the tests in t/perf/benchmarks against two or
    # more perls

    bench.pl [options] -- perlA[=labelA] perlB[=labelB] ...

    # run the tests against same perlA 2x, with and without extra
    # options

    bench.pl [options] -- perlA=fast PerlA=slow -Mstrict -Dpsltoc 

    # Run bench.pl's own built-in sanity tests

    bench.pl --action=selftest

    # Run bench on blead, which is then modified and timed again

    bench.pl [options] --write=blead.time -- ./perl=blead
    # hack hack hack
    bench.pl --read=blead.time -- ./perl=hacked

    # You can also combine --read with --write
    bench.pl --read=blead.time --write=last.time -- ./perl=hacked

=head1 DESCRIPTION

By default, F<bench.pl> will run code snippets found in
F<t/perf/benchmarks> (or similar) under cachegrind, in order to calculate
how many instruction reads, data writes, branches, cache misses, etc. that
one execution of the snippet uses. It will run them against two or more
perl executables and show how much each test has gotten better or worse.

It is modelled on the F<perlbench> tool, but since it measures instruction
reads etc., rather than timings, it is much more precise and reproducible.
It is also considerably faster, and is capable of running tests in
parallel (with C<-j>). Rather than  displaying a single relative
percentage per test/perl combination, it displays values for 13 different
measurements, such as instruction reads, conditional branch misses etc.

There are options to write the raw data to a file, and to read it back.
This means that you can view the same run data in different views with
different selection and sort options. You can also use this mechanism
to save the results of timing one perl, and then read it back while timing
a modification, so that you dont have rerun the same tests on the same
perl over and over, or have two perls built at the same time.

The optional C<=label> after each perl executable is used in the display
output. If you are doing a two step benchmark then you should provide
a label for at least the "base" perl.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item *

--action=I<foo>

What action to perform. The default is  I<grind>, which runs the benchmarks
using I<cachegrind> as the back end. The only other action at the moment is
I<selftest>, which runs some basic sanity checks and produces TAP output.

=item *

--average

Only display the overall average, rather than the results for each
individual test.

=item *

--benchfile=I<foo>

The path of the file which contains the benchmarks (F<t/perf/benchmarks>
by default).

=item *

--bisect=I<field,minval,maxval>

Run a single test against one perl and exit with a zero status if the
named field is in the specified range; exit 1 otherwise. It will complain
if more than one test or perl has been specified. It is intended to be
called as part of a bisect run, to determine when something changed.
For example,

    bench.pl -j 8 --tests=foo --bisect=Ir,100,105 --perlargs=-Ilib \
        ./miniperl

might be called from bisect to find when the number of instruction reads
for test I<foo> falls outside the range 100..105.

=item *

--compact=<Iperl>

Display the results for a single perl executable in a compact form.
Which perl to display is specified in the same manner as C<--norm>.

=item *

--debug

Enable verbose debugging output.

=item *

--fields=I<a,b,c>

Display only the specified fields; for example,

    --fields=Ir,Ir_m,Ir_mm

If only one field is selected, the output is in more compact form.

=item *

--grindargs=I<foo>

Optional command-line arguments to pass to all cachegrind invocations.

This option is appended to those which bench.pl uses for its own
purposes; so it can be used to override them (see --debug output
below), and can also be 'abused' to add redirects into the valgrind
command invocation.

For example, this writes PERL_MEM_LOG activity to foobar.$$, because
3>foobar.$$ redirects fd 3, then perl under PERL_MEM_LOG writes to fd 3.

 $ perl Porting/bench.pl --jobs=2 --verbose --debug \
    --tests=call::sub::amp_empty \
    \
    --grindargs='--cachegrind-out-file=junk.$$ 3>foobar.$$' \
    -- \
    perl5.24.0	perl5.24.0:+memlog:PERL_MEM_LOG=3mst

for the +memlog tests, this executes as: (shown via --debug, then prettyfied)

  Command: PERL_HASH_SEED=0 PERL_MEM_LOG=3mst
    valgrind --tool=cachegrind  --branch-sim=yes
    --cachegrind-out-file=/dev/null --cachegrind-out-file=junk.$$
    3>foobar.$$ perl5.24.0  - 10 2>&1

The result is that a set of junk.$$ files containing raw cachegrind
output are written, and foobar.$$ contains the expected memlog output.

Notes:

Theres no obvious utility for those junk.$$ and foobar.$$ files, but
you can have them anyway.

The 3 in PERL_MEM_LOG=3mst is needed because the output would
otherwize go to STDERR, and cause parse_cachegrind() to reject the
test and die.

The --grindargs redirect is needed to capture the memlog output;
without it, the memlog output is written to fd3, around
parse_cachegrind and effectively into /dev/null

PERL_MEM_LOG is expensive when used.

=item *

---help

Display basic usage information.

=item *

-j I<N>
--jobs=I<N>

Run I<N> jobs in parallel (default 1). This determines how many cachegrind
process will running at a time, and should generally be set to the number
of CPUs available.

=item *

--norm=I<foo>

Specify which perl column in the output to treat as the 100% norm.
It may be a column number (0..N-1) or a perl executable name or label.
It defaults to the leftmost column.

=item *

--perlargs=I<foo>

Optional command-line arguments to pass to each perl-under-test
(perlA, perlB in synopsis) For example, C<--perlargs=-Ilib>.

=item *

--raw

Display raw data counts rather than percentages in the outputs. This
allows you to see the exact number of intruction reads, branch misses etc.
for each test/perl combination. It also causes the C<AVERAGE> display
per field to be calculated based on the average of each tests's count
rather than average of each percentage. This means that tests with very
high counts will dominate.

=item *

--sort=I<field:perl>

Order the tests in the output based on the value of I<field> in the
column I<perl>. The I<perl> value is as per C<--norm>. For example

    bench.pl --sort=Dw:perl-5.20.0 \
        perl-5.16.0 perl-5.18.0 perl-5.20.0

=item *

-r I<file>
--read=I<file>

Read in saved data from a previous C<--write> run from the specified file.

Requires C<JSON::PP> to be available.

=item *

--tests=I<FOO>

Specify a subset of tests to run (or in the case of C<--read>, to display).
It may be either a comma-separated list of test names, or a regular
expression. For example

    --tests=expr::assign::scalar_lex,expr::assign::2list_lex
    --tests=/^expr::/

=item *

--verbose

Display progress information.

=item *

-w I<file>
--write=I<file>

Save the raw data to the specified file. It can be read back later with
C<--read>. If combined with C<--read> then the output file will be
the merge of the file read and any additional perls added on the command
line.

Requires C<JSON::PP> to be available.
