Hi All,
I'm trying to benchmark a software routine on Cortex-A32. I'm not finding a way to measure cycles on a Simulator or on a hardware(development board with DS-5 streamline). Any suggestions here?
Thanks in advance for your valuable time and responding to this query.
Regards,
Guna.
Hello Guna,
Another option for benchmarking and performance analysis before you have hardware is Arm Cycle Models. https://developer.arm.com/products/system-design/cycle-models
For more information you can refer to the article at https://community.arm.com/processors/b/blog/posts/using-arm-cycle-models-to-understand-the-cortex-r8
The same type of analysis can be done for the Cortex-A32.
Thanks,
Jason
Hi Jason,
Thanks for your response. To begin with "ARM Cycle models", I'm not finding a SoC designer Model(for Windows OS, baremetal) for Cortex-A32. The software routine to be benchmark'ed on A32 is a voice-post processing algorithm, it has fileIO to read&write the input&output. So I'm kind of blocked here. Kindly update me if there is an alternative way to pursue.
Thanks again for your valuable support.
