Question about using lkp ncompare
#20
Comments
Commit is the kernel version you use, for example "3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64" in your results. But you need to compare different kernel versions, so you need to run the test in another kernel version too. It's possible to compare with other axis key. Please try $ lkp ncompare -h And use "-c" to specify axis key. |
Will try to upgrade the kernel and run a benchmark (unixbench) to compare.
Could you help clarify the usage and/or give me an example? Sorry for inconvenience. |
After trying another kernel, I still can not run
The
|
At least 3 runs for 1 kernel are needed to compare. |
OK. Will try it. Suggest to add some outputs there if no enough samples. Thanks! |
Still not work after 3 runs, is there any other mistakes?
|
Try $ lkp ncompare -s commit='3.10.0-862.19.1.el7.x86_64' -o commit='3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64' and $ lkp ncompare -s commit='3.10.0-862.19.1.el7.x86_64' -o commit='3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64' -a ? |

I guess the two kernel versions are too similar. There's no performance difference, so you need "-a". |
May I run |
It's not easy to merge results from different machine now yet. That will be a TODO for us. Maybe you can close this one and submit a new issue for that? So we will keep track of it and make it resolved. |
I'm all for it, this feature would be very useful. BTW, still one more question: |
It's possible, but tricky. Firstly you need a way to differentiate 2 SSD devices. Now in host file, you cannot do that. That is a feature request. It's not only for |
Thanks, will do! |
I'm so sorry to disturb you. But after studying many articles (blog/pdf/slides/README.md) I still can not get
lkp ncompare
to run successfully.For example: in https://01.org/zh/node/15555 it says:
# lkp ncompare -s commit=9e66317d3c92ddaab330c125dfe9d06eee268aff -o commit=a11c3148ba6b8b4cac4876b7269d570260d0bd41
But I have no idea about where to get the commit id.
Does
lkp ncompare
command support comparing other things beside the kernel? for example, compare 2 versions of a driver or compare 2 different NVMe devices?Such as: After testing
fio-basic
against 2 devices, is there any available tools to tell the performance difference?Thank you in advance!
