环境:支持perf

ubuntu安装

apt-get install linux-tools-common linux-tools-generic linux-tools-`uname -r`

android

一般自带simpleperf

分析

两个点作差, 求中间结果;

*(int*)nullptr = 0;

案例

断点 1

代码

#define SETPOINT(...)  do { *(int*)nullptr = 0; } while(0)
int main() {SETPOINT(1);int a = 0;for(int i = 0 ; i < 500; i++) a+=i;return 0;
}

执行结果

可以看到1141 - 1152一共有5条指令, 5 * 500差不多2500, perf统计有些许误差属于正常现象;

结论

可以两个点之间的执行共执行了2500条指令; 然后根据指令数量和执行环境推断理论执行性能;
不适用于和多种硬件打交道的环境; 而且不同的syscall耗时不一样;
