This page describes how to get and build the OP-TEE benchmark framework. For the architectural details, please refer to the benchmark_framework
page instead.

The benchmark framework spans across different architectural layers and therefore it doesn't make much sense to build it as a standalone build. Therefore we only give guidance telling how to enable it in full OP-TEE developer builds. For general instructions for full OP-TEE developer builds, please refer to instructions at the build
page. But otherwise follow the instructions below to enable the benchmark framework.
Before using Benchmark framework, OP-TEE should be rebuilt with the CFG_TEE_BENCHMARK
flag enabled so that the benchmark framework will be enabled in all architectural layers. You do that by:
$ cd <optee-project>/build
$ make CFG_TEE_BENCHMARK=y
When everything has been built (flashed) and you have booted up the device and you have a console ready to accept command, then the next step is to run the actual benchmark application together with the host/TA application you intend to benchmark. You do this my giving the host applicant as argument to the optee_benchmark binary. Let's say for example that you intend to benchmark the hello_world
example. Then you invoke the benchmark like this:
$ benchmark hello_world
When client_app finish the execution, optee_benchmark will generate <client_app>.ts
time stamp data file in the same directory, where Client Application is stored (i.e., relative to hello_world in this case).
