Add 'simd' sort field to visualize SIMD ops in perf-report.
Rows are labeled with the SIMD isa, and the type of predicate (if any):
- [p] partial predicate
- [e] empty predicate (no elements in the vector being used)
Example with Arm SPE and SVE (Scalable Vector Extension):
#include <arm_sve.h>
double src[1025], dst[1025];
int main(void) {
svfloat64_t vc = svdup_f64(1);
for(;;)
for(int i = 0; i < 1025; i += svcntd())
{
svbool_t pg = svwhilelt_b64(i, 1025);
svfloat64_t vsrc = svld1(pg, &src[i]);
svfloat64_t vdst = svadd_x(pg, vsrc, vc);
svst1(pg, &dst[i], vdst);
}
return 0;
}
... compiled using "gcc-11 -march=armv8-a+sve -O3"
Profiling on a platform that implements FEAT_SVE and FEAT_SPEv1p1:
$ perf record -e arm_spe_0// -- ./a.out
$ perf report --itrace=i1i -s overhead,pid,simd,sym
Overhead Pid:Command Simd Symbol
........ ................ ....... ......................
53.76% 10758:program [.] main
46.14% 10758:program [.] SVE [.] main
0.09% 10758:program [p] SVE [.] main
The report shows 0.09% of the sampled SVE operations use partial
predicates due to src and dst arrays not being multiples of the vector
register lengths.
