Adding option 'o' to allow sorting based on the input file number. By default (without -o option) the output is sorted on baseline. Also removing '+' sorting support from -c option, because it's not needed anymore.

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
perf-diff - Read perf.data files and display the differential profile
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf diff' [baseline file] [data file1] [[data file2] ... ]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This command displays the performance difference amongst two or more perf.data
|
|
files captured via perf record.
|
|
|
|
If no parameters are passed it will assume perf.data.old and perf.data.
|
|
|
|
The differential profile is displayed only for events matching both
|
|
specified perf.data files.
|
|
|
|

Differential computation selection - delta,ratio,wdiff (default is delta).
|
|
See COMPARISON METHODS section for more info.
|

|
|
|
|
-F::
|
|
--formula::
|
|
Show formula for given computation.
|
|
|
|
-o::
|
|
--order::
|
|
Specify compute sorting column number.
|
|
|
|
COMPARISON
|
|
----------
|
|
The comparison is governed by the baseline file. The baseline perf.data
|
|
file is iterated for samples. All other perf.data files specified on
|
|
the command line are searched for the baseline sample pair. If the pair
|
|
is found, specified computation is made and result is displayed.
|
|
|
|
All samples from non-baseline perf.data files, that do not match any
|
|
baseline entry, are displayed with empty space within baseline column
|
|
and possible computation results (delta) in their related column.
|
|
|
|
Example files samples:
|
|
- file A with samples f1, f2, f3, f4, f6
|
|
- file B with samples f2, f4, f5
|
|
- file C with samples f1, f2, f5
|
|
|
|
Example output:
|
|
x - computation takes place for pair
|
|
b - baseline sample percentage
|
|
|
|
- perf diff A B C

COMPARISON METHODS
|
|
------------------
|
|
delta
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
If specified the 'Delta' column is displayed with value 'd' computed as:
|
|
|
|
d = A->period_percent - B->period_percent
|
|
|
|
with:
|
|
- A/B being matching hist entry from data/baseline file specified
|
|
(or perf.data/perf.data.old) respectively.
|
|
|
|
- period_percent being the % of the hist entry period value within
|
|
single data file
|
|
|
|
ratio
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
If specified the 'Ratio' column is displayed with value 'r' computed as:
|
|
|
|
r = A->period / B->period
|
|
|
|
with:
|
|
- A/B being matching hist entry from data/baseline file specified
|
|
(or perf.data/perf.data.old) respectively.
|
|
|
|
- period being the hist entry period value
|
|
|
|
wdiff:WEIGHT-B,WEIGHT-A
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
If specified the 'Weighted diff' column is displayed with value 'd' computed as:
|
|
|
|
d = B->period * WEIGHT-A - A->period * WEIGHT-B
|
|
|
|
- A/B being matching hist entry from data/baseline file specified
|
|
(or perf.data/perf.data.old) respectively.
|
|
|
|
- period being the hist entry period value
|
|
|
|
- WEIGHT-A/WEIGHT-B being user suplied weights in the the '-c' option
|
|
behind ':' separator like '-c wdiff:1,2'.
|
|
- WIEGHT-A being the weight of the data file
|
|
- WIEGHT-B being the weight of the baseline data file
|
