perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple times Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an average and a stddev. For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench 5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages and noise levels (in percentage) printed: aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10 Time: 0.117 Time: 0.108 Time: 0.089 Time: 0.088 Time: 0.100 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 10' (5 runs): 1243.989586 task-clock-msecs # 10.460 CPUs ( +- 4.720% ) 47706 context-switches # 0.038 M/sec ( +- 19.706% ) 387 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec ( +- 3.608% ) 17793 page-faults # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.354% ) 3770941606 cycles # 3031.329 M/sec ( +- 4.621% ) 1566372416 instructions # 0.415 IPC ( +- 2.703% ) 16783421 cache-references # 13.492 M/sec ( +- 5.202% ) 7128590 cache-misses # 5.730 M/sec ( +- 7.420% ) 0.118924455 seconds time elapsed.

perf stat: Add feature to run and measure a command multiple times Add the --repeat <n> feature to perf stat, which repeats a given command up to a 100 times, collects the stats and calculates an average and a stddev. For example, the following oneliner 'perf stat' command runs hackbench 5 times and prints a tabulated result of all metrics, with averages and noise levels (in percentage) printed: aldebaran:~/linux/linux/tools/perf> ./perf stat --repeat 5 ~/hackbench 10 Time: 0.117 Time: 0.108 Time: 0.089 Time: 0.088 Time: 0.100 Performance counter stats for '/home/mingo/hackbench 10' (5 runs): 1243.989586 task-clock-msecs # 10.460 CPUs ( +- 4.720% ) 47706 context-switches # 0.038 M/sec ( +- 19.706% ) 387 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec ( +- 3.608% ) 17793 page-faults # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.354% ) 3770941606 cycles # 3031.329 M/sec ( +- 4.621% ) 1566372416 instructions # 0.415 IPC ( +- 2.703% ) 16783421 cache-references # 13.492 M/sec ( +- 5.202% ) 7128590 cache-misses # 5.730 M/sec ( +- 7.420% ) 0.118924455 seconds time elapsed.
