Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/22] re-factor softfloat and add fp16 functions

[Howard Spoelstra]

Hi,

I built qemu-system-ppc for OSX and Windows from
https://github.com/stsquad/qemu/tree/softfloat-refactor-and-fp16-v3
and noticed a considerable drop in floating point performance on both
hosts.
Running Mac OS 9.2 in OSX, using MacBench 3.0, the score for the
floating point performance dropped from ~60 to ~42.

Recent tcg optimisations had improved processor and floating point
performance considerably, but that gain seems to be more than lost for
the floating point performance.

Any idea what is causing this?

Best regards,
Howard

Is this a 64-bit or a 32-bit build?

We made a conscious choice to share code and use all 64-bit operations, under
the assumption that x86_64 is the most common host.

Otherwise we have not really done extensive benchmarking.

Hi,

Both OSX and Windows builds are 64-bit.

Well we expected a little degradation but it's a bit more than I
expected.

The main difference is all the code has a common path now and works on a
canonicalized representation of the floating point number rather than
direct bit-fiddling of the register representation. This is obviously
going to have some cost but it looks like we should spend a bit more
time seeing if we can claw some of that back.

That said any floating point on QEMU is going to be slow by the very
nature of the implementation. Because we don't translate guest<->host
instructions directly we will be several orders of magnitude slower for
floating point instructions compared to normal integer and bitwise
operations. If we want to bring on FPU performance we need to look at
how we can safely use host instructions to get the exact same results as
we currently do with softfloat.

I'm still keen on the re-factor as it does achieve the other goals of
improving readability of the code and making it much easier to reason
with. It also reduces the amount of effective copy and paste but with
slightly different constants which the old code had.

It's pretty bad (almost a 2X mean slowdown) for the three FP workloads
in dbt-bench:

You can obtain the above on your machine (assuming /tmp/softfloat-$branch
corresponds to the before/after x86_64-linux-user binaries) with:

$ time for branch in before after; do cd $DBT_BENCH/nbench && \
	taskset -c 0 /tmp/softfloat-$branch \
	$DBT_BENCH/nbench/nbench -V -C$DBT_BENCH/nbench/FP.DAT \
	| tee $DBT_BENCH/softfloat-$branch.nbench || break && cd -; \
	done

And then plot the results with:
$ ./breakdown.pl --suite=fp --barchart softfloat-before.nbench softfloat-after.nbench \
	| $BARCHART/barchart.pl --extra-gnuplot='set term dumb 80' \
	--extra-gnuplot='set title "NBench score; higher is better\nHost: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz"' \
	--extra-gnuplot="set yrange [0:]" --extra="=norotate" | gnuplot

You'll need both dbt-bench and barchart:
  https://github.com/cota/dbt-bench (clone with --recursive and build nbench first.
    You can also use CROSS_COMPILE there to benchmark other linux-user targets)
  https://github.com/cota/barchart

Hope that helps,

I have not yet tried dbt-bench, but on another test case I was able to recover
all of the performance by marking all of the helpers inline.  I'm somewhat
disappointed by the compiler here.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/22] re-factor softfloat and add fp16 functions

[Alex Bennée]

This is the third iteration of my softfloat re-factor patches. You can
see the discussion about v2 here:

    https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg01475.html

Most of the changes are addressing review comments but I also have
added another patch early on to try and reduce the re-builds triggered
by touching softfloat.h. This involves a bit of mechanical churn but
is worth it to avoid the complete re-build. There is still a bit of a
dependency in the MIPS cpu.h due to it's need to tweak the signalling
NaN bit.

The biggest change from the review comments are shorter names and a
reduction of the size of the function names and related structures.

I've fixed most of the checkpatch warnings but there is one line which
tops 80 chars by one character. The other I think is a false positive
about the position of a -.

As usual the details of the changes are in the individual commit
messages.

There are a few comments where I haven't made changes yet as I'm
pondering the best way forward. The main unresolved bit is
re-factoring the specialisation code that deals with the variation of
NaN behaviour. I'm wary of exposing the internals to the wider world
so perhaps a softfloat-internals.h and
target/foo/softfloat-specialize.o?

I've added one simple helper (is_nan(x)) internal to softfloat. I
haven't used it more widely than asked in the comments to avoid too
much churn. Maybe is_inf and is_zero would be additional helpful
internal helpers or for softfloat-internals.h.

I suppose the question is do we want to do that in this series or have
a follow-up as we fix the existing bugs? If we can follow-up then I
think this series is ready to go.
