A ``tick table'' as an omnipresent column of the interface is planned, for those machines which have such concerns, asciilifeform. |
| 14:08 |
asciilifeform |
verisimilitude: actually pretty difficult problem for x86 (where massive effect from pipeline interaction b/w adjacent ops) |
| 14:09 |
asciilifeform |
verisimilitude: what good btw would tick table do for emulated cpu (as in your case) ? |
| 14:09 |
verisimilitude |
As macros don't fit my model, that strengthens the purpose of the tool for the hardcore machine code programming, with a focus on size. |
| 14:09 |
verisimilitude |
I was wondering were I conflating ``tick'' and ``cycle'' inappropriately. |
| 14:10 |
verisimilitude |
My tool, for such CPUs which specify this, would have a column for the static cycle counts. |
| 14:12 |
asciilifeform |
imho ideally the ticks would be derived empirically, using iron profiler instrs |
| 14:12 |
asciilifeform |
( for trad cpu, naturally ) |
| 14:17 |
asciilifeform |
modern-day cpu vendors have moar or less given up on publishing 'tick tables', not only on acct of pipelineism, but also the atrocious memory access penalties which vary often ~randomly (due to cacheism) sadly. |
| 14:19 |
asciilifeform |
in 'M' i tried to weasel around the latter by making whole thing fit in a cache line. which it does. but, naturally, the data set (virtual ram image) does not. |
| 14:20 |
* |
asciilifeform experimented w/ x64's explicit cache control instrs, but did not achieve mega-result |
| 14:25 |
asciilifeform |
i mapped M's cpu regs ~mostly~ (but not entirely) to x64 regs; would potentially give speed boost to force the remaining regs to reside in cached ram, at expense of the 1G virt ram. but unlikely to make thing usably fast for practical use. |

(trilema) 2019-07-23 asciilifeform: meanwhile, in measurements : performance of http://www.loper-os.org/?p=3420 system : as measured by a) 'bogomips' (linus's benchmark) : 93.4 times slower than host cpu; b) 'dhrystone' (traditional integer benchmark) : 300.98 times slower than host cpu. |
| 14:27 |
asciilifeform |
i.e. on 3GHz opteron -- you get equiv. of ~100MHz mips... |
| 14:30 |
asciilifeform |
if 'M' were to be rewritten as 'os kernel', could then also map mips's tlb to the x64 tlb. and potentially then merely ~50-fold penalty. but currently cannot think of a reason to attempt this. |
| 14:32 |
asciilifeform |
( recall, orig. objective of experiment was 'can haz libless 100%-asm proggy that's guaranteed to boot a usable linux in 100% isolation on any 2.6 x64 linux'. rather than 'can turn a 300watt opteron into the perform. equiv. of 3watt 'pic32mz'' lol ) |

I've a joke to this effect. |

verisimilitude |
The only way to write good software is to have it be correct and able to be fast and then have it made to actually be fast. Most software isn't correct, but is able to be fast, and is then made to be slow in an infinitesimal stepping towards correctness. |
| 18:19 |
asciilifeform |
i suppose nitpicker could say that e.g. pgp exists, but unixlike w/out 'over 9000' trivial overflows does not, and hence 'can't not aslr' but still analogous. |
