Problems solved by technology

However, in the actual measurement process of the traditional functional component measurement scheme, when the same functional unit executes different instructions, the actual circuit logic it executes is different, and the instantaneous power is not a stable value and has large fluctuations, which leads to the failure of the entire program. The power consumption test is not very accurate and reliable

Embodiment Construction

[0043] The goal of the GPDSP power consumption test is: Assume that the instruction set of a certain DSP platform is M, and the instruction set involved in a program running on the processor is a subset M of the entire instruction set M I , where the number of beats for each instruction is C i , the number of each instruction is N i , the total number of program execution beats is T, and the core power consumption E of the program running on the processor needs to be measured. The test of power consumption needs to improve the accuracy and versatility as much as possible under the premise of simplicity.

[0044] Given that the GPDSP architecture has the characteristics of static launch, the instruction flow of the program is fixed, and its beat is predictable. The present invention aims to propose a method for testing power consumption on a GPDSP platform to accomplish the above-mentioned measurement objectives. How to design a microbenchmark test program (Microbenchmark), s...

Abstract

The invention discloses an instruction-EPI-based fine-grained GPDSP power consumption test method and system, and a medium. The instruction-EPI-based fine-grained GPDSP power consumption test method comprises the steps: analyzing an instruction stream of a target program, and obtaining various instructions of the target program and occurrence times Ni of the instructions; calculating the active power consumption Eactive of the target program according to the various instructions of the target program and the appearing times Ni of the instructions in combination with the EPI of the various instructions on the target GPDSP platform; obtaining static power consumption Estatic and no-load power consumption Eidle of the target program; and adding the static power consumption Estatic, the no-load power consumption Eid and the active power consumption Eactive to obtain the total power consumption E of the target program on the target GPDSP platform. According to the invention, the measurementvalue is stable, the accuracy is good, the reliability is high, and the power consumption test has high universality and expansibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of processor power consumption testing, in particular to a fine-grained GPDSP power consumption testing method, system and medium based on an instruction EPI.
