-llvm-exegesis - LLVM Machine Instruction Benchmark
-==================================================
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-
-:program:`llvm-exegesis` [*options*]
-
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-
-:program:`llvm-exegesis` is a benchmarking tool that uses information available
-in LLVM to measure host machine instruction characteristics like latency or port
-decomposition.
-
-Given an LLVM opcode name and a benchmarking mode, :program:`llvm-exegesis`
-generates a code snippet that makes execution as serial (resp. as parallel) as
-possible so that we can measure the latency (resp. uop decomposition) of the
-instruction.
-The code snippet is jitted and executed on the host subtarget. The time taken
-(resp. resource usage) is measured using hardware performance counters. The
-result is printed out as YAML to the standard output.
-
-The main goal of this tool is to automatically (in)validate the LLVM's TableDef
-scheduling models.
-
-OPTIONS
--------
-
-.. option:: -help
-
- Print a summary of command line options.
-
-.. option:: -opcode-index=<LLVM opcode index>
-
- Specify the opcode to measure, by index.
- Either `opcode-index` or `opcode-name` must be set.
-
-.. option:: -opcode-name=<LLVM opcode name>
-
- Specify the opcode to measure, by name.
- Either `opcode-index` or `opcode-name` must be set.
-
-.. option:: -benchmark-mode=[Latency|Uops]
-
- Specify which characteristic of the opcode to measure.
-
-.. option:: -num-repetitions=<Number of repetition>
-
- Specify the number of repetitions of the asm snippet.
- Higher values lead to more accurate measurements but lengthen the benchmark.
-
-
-EXIT STATUS
------------
-
-:program:`llvm-exegesis` returns 0 on success. Otherwise, an error message is
-printed to standard error, and the tool returns a non 0 value.
