CPU microarchitecture performance evaluation methods, bare-metal performance evaluation tools, electronic devices and computer program products

Abstract

This application relates to the field of computer technology, providing a CPU microarchitecture performance evaluation method, a bare-metal performance evaluation tool, an electronic device, and a computer program product. The method, applied to the bare-metal performance evaluation tool, includes: configuring at least one event to be monitored and target test code based on the performance evaluation requirements of the CPU microarchitecture to be evaluated; controlling a virtual CPU to execute the target test code and collecting event execution data corresponding to all events to be monitored during code execution; the virtual CPU being created based on the CPU microarchitecture to be evaluated; and determining the performance evaluation information of the CPU microarchitecture based on the event execution data. This solution fills the gap in the lack of CPU microarchitecture performance evaluation methods in the pre-silicon stage, enabling the evaluation of CPU microarchitecture performance without the need for tape-out.
