Greetings, As a part of the TCG Continous Benchmarking project for GSoC this year, detailed reports discussing different performance measurement methodologies and analysis results will be sent here on the mailing list.
The project's first report is currently being revised and will be posted on the mailing list in the next few days.* A section in this report will deal with measuring the top 25 executed functions when running QEMU. It includes two Python scripts that automatically perform this task. This series adds these two scripts to a new performance directory created under the scripts directory. It also adds a new "Miscellaneous" section to the end of the MAINTAINERS file with a "Performance Tools and Tests" subsection. Previous version of the series: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-06/msg06147.html *UPDATE: Report 1 was published on the mailing list on Monday the 22nd of June. Best regards, Ahmed Karaman v2->v3: - Use a clearer "Syntax" and "Example of usage" in the script comment and commit message. - Manually specify the instructions required to run Perf instead of relying on the stderr produced by Perf. - Use more descriptive variable names.
