Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of computer, and particularly relates to a device load determination method, device, medium and product. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a key indicator for measuring device pressure, the accurate determination of device load is one of the core concerns of device operation and maintenance and device operation condition monitoring.

[0003] In the related art, the device load can be determined by obtaining the total duration of the device operation process and the task processing duration of the device processing task.

[0004] However, the device load determination scheme provided in the related art only considers the device operation load from the time dimension, resulting in poor accuracy of the determined device load. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above problems, the present disclosure provides a device load determination method, device, medium and product, which can evaluate the device load from the device processor frequency dimension, thereby improving the accuracy of the determined device load.

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a device load determination method is provided, comprising: obtaining a cycle counter value group recorded in a target task process within a unit load evaluation duration of a target device, wherein the cycle counter value group comprises a first cycle counter value and a second cycle counter value, the first cycle counter value is a cycle counter value at a time when the target task starts to execute, and the second cycle counter value is a cycle counter value at a time when the target task execution ends; determining a device load of the target device based on the cycle counter value group within the unit load evaluation duration and a maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load evaluation duration, wherein the maximum cycle counter increment is a product of a duration of the unit load evaluation duration and a maximum operating frequency of the target device.

[0007] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, an electronic device is provided, comprising a memory, a processor and a computer program stored in the memory, wherein the processor executes the computer program to implement the method of the first aspect.

[0008] According to a third aspect of the present disclosure, a computer readable storage medium is provided, which stores a computer program, and the computer program is executed by a processor to implement the method of the first aspect.

[0009] According to a fourth aspect of this disclosure, a computer program product is provided, including a computer program that, when executed by a processor, implements the method described in the first aspect.

[0010] The device load determination method, device, medium, and product provided in this disclosure can determine the device load of a target device by obtaining the values ​​of the cycle counter at the start and end times of the task execution when the target device processes the target task within a unit load assessment time, as well as the maximum increment of the cycle counter within the unit load assessment time. Since the change in the cycle counter value changes with the device processor frequency, it is possible to determine a more accurate device load from the dimension of processor frequency change by observing the frequency change of the target device during the processing of the target task within a unit load assessment time and the maximum increment of the cycle counter within the unit load assessment time.

[0011] It should be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and intended to provide further illustration of the claimed technology. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure more apparent, exemplary embodiments according to this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments of this disclosure. It should be understood that this disclosure is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0019] In related technologies, the equipment load can be obtained by determining the ratio between the task processing time of the equipment and the total operating time of the equipment.

[0020] However, the equipment load determination schemes provided in related technologies only consider the equipment operating load from the time dimension. For equipment with dynamic frequency adjustment function, since the equipment does not operate at the same frequency at all times, the fact that the same time is spent processing tasks at high frequency and low frequency does not mean that the equipment has the same load. Therefore, the equipment load determined from the time dimension cannot accurately reflect the real load of equipment with frequency conversion function.

[0021] To address the aforementioned issues, this disclosure provides a method for determining device load, which can be applied to a terminal device. The terminal device can be a target device or an electronic device connected to the target device. The target device is a device that needs to be load evaluated, such as a server, computer, or network device. The electronic device can be a computer, laptop, mobile phone, tablet, or wearable device.

[0022] Optionally, in scenarios where the terminal device is an electronic device connected to the target device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This illustration shows an application scenario diagram of the device load determination scheme provided in the embodiments of this disclosure, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the application scenario 100 includes a target device 101 and an electronic device 102; wherein, a communication link is established between the target device 101 and the electronic device 102 so that the electronic device 102 can determine the device load of the target device 101 through cooperation with the target device 101.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A flowchart of a device load determination method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure is shown, including: Step S201: Obtain the set of period counter values ​​recorded by the target device during the processing of the target task within the unit load assessment time. The period counter value group includes a first period counter value and a second period counter value. The first period counter value is the period counter value at the start time of the target task execution, and the second period counter value is the period counter value at the end time of the target task execution. Step S202: Determine the device load of the target device based on the group of cycle counter values ​​within the unit load assessment time and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment time. The maximum cycle counter increment is the product of the duration of the unit load assessment and the maximum operating frequency of the target device.

[0024] In summary, the device load determination method provided in this embodiment can determine the device load of a target device by obtaining the values ​​of the cycle counters at the start and end times of the task execution when the target device processes the target task within a unit load assessment time, as well as the maximum increment of the cycle counter within the unit load assessment time. Since the change in the cycle counter value changes with the device processor frequency, it is possible to determine a more accurate device load from the dimension of processor frequency change by observing the frequency change of the target device during the processing of the target task within a unit load assessment time and the maximum increment of the cycle counter within the unit load assessment time.

[0025] The following are Figure 2 The specific implementation methods of each step in the illustrated embodiment are described in detail below: In step S201, the terminal device obtains the set of period counter values ​​recorded by the target device during the processing of the target task within the unit load assessment time. In this embodiment of the disclosure, the cycle counter in the target device is a hardware counter used to record the total number of clock cycles executed by the target device during operation. The cycle counter increments by one each time a clock signal used to control the task execution process arrives in the target device. It is understood that since the target device can process tasks at variable frequencies, the frequency of the clock signal detected by the cycle counter is also high when the target device processes tasks at a high frequency, and conversely, the frequency of the clock signal detected by the cycle counter is also low when the target device processes tasks at a low frequency.

[0026] It should be noted that the unit load assessment duration is the period during which the target device's load assessment needs to be performed. Specifically, it can be determined based on actual needs, and this embodiment does not limit it. For example, the unit load assessment duration is from 8:12:10 on October 3, 2025 to 8:12:15 on October 3, 2025; the target task is the task that the target device is processing within the unit load assessment duration; the cycle counter value group includes a first cycle counter value and a second cycle counter value, where the first cycle counter value is the cycle counter value at the start time of the target task, and the second cycle counter value is the cycle counter value at the end time of the target task.

[0027] In one optional implementation, the process by which the terminal device obtains the set of period counter values ​​recorded by the target device during the processing of the target task within a unit load assessment duration includes: in response to receiving a device load assessment instruction, parsing the device load assessment instruction to obtain a target time period; and then, from the period counter recording information, obtaining the set of period counter values ​​recorded during the processing of the target task within a unit load assessment duration that is the same as the target time period. This facilitates the targeted determination of the device load of the target device within a unit load assessment duration based on the user's actual requirements.

[0028] It should be noted that the device load assessment instruction can be generated by the user after performing a device load assessment operation on the target device or the electronic device connected to the target device. The target device or the electronic device connected to the target device allows the user to select or fill in the target time period for which the device load assessment needs to be performed through the user interface.

[0029] In one optional implementation, the terminal device can periodically assess the device load information of the target device. The process by which the terminal device obtains the set of period counter values ​​recorded during the target task processing within a unit load assessment period includes: at the end of the current unit load assessment period, retrieving the set of period counter values ​​recorded during the target task processing within the current unit load assessment period from the period counter's recording information. This allows the terminal device to monitor the target device's load status in real time.

[0030] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this disclosure, the period for the terminal device to evaluate the device load of the target device can be determined based on actual needs, and the embodiments of this disclosure are not limited in this respect; for example, the terminal device can evaluate the device load of the target device every 10 seconds, or the terminal device can evaluate the device load of the target device every 5 seconds.

[0031] In step S202, the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the group of period counter values ​​within the unit load assessment time and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment time.

[0032] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the maximum cycle counter increment is the product of the duration of the unit load assessment and the maximum operating frequency of the target device; the maximum cycle counter increment is used to characterize the data increment of the cycle counter when the target device operates at the highest frequency throughout the unit load assessment, wherein the frequency of the target device refers to the operating frequency of the target device's central processing unit or other chip with data processing capabilities.

[0033] In one optional implementation, the target device can execute only one target task within a unit load assessment duration, and the target task can be completed within a unit load assessment duration. Therefore, the period counter value set obtained by the terminal device includes the period counter value set recorded during the processing of the target task within a single unit load assessment duration. Thus, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the period counter value set within the unit load assessment duration and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment duration includes: determining the difference between the second period counter value and the first period counter value to obtain a period counter value difference; then, determining the ratio between the period counter value difference and the maximum period counter increment to obtain the device load of the target device within the unit load assessment duration. The device load within a unit load assessment period can be obtained by determining the change in the cycle counter during the execution of the target task by the target device within a unit load assessment period, and the ratio between the data increment of the cycle counter when the target device is running at the highest frequency throughout the unit load assessment period. This allows for improved accuracy in determining the device load when the target device executes only one target task within a unit load assessment period and the target task is completed within a unit time.

[0034] Wherein, if the target device executes only one target task within a unit load assessment period, and the target task is completed within a unit time, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device within a unit load assessment period can be implemented based on a first formula, which is: ;(Formula 1) In Formula 1, L represents the device load, task1 represents the target task, task1_end_cycle represents the second cycle counter value, task1_start_cycle represents the first cycle counter value, and n represents the unit load evaluation time.

[0035] In one optional implementation, if the target device needs to complete a target task over multiple unit load assessment durations, the period counter value set obtained by the terminal device includes the period counter value set recorded during the processing of the target task within the multiple unit load assessment durations. Therefore, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the period counter value set within the unit load assessment duration and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment duration includes: determining the difference between the second period counter value and the first period counter value within each unit load assessment duration to obtain the period counter value difference for each unit load assessment duration; then, determining the ratio between the period counter value difference for each unit load assessment duration and the maximum period counter increment to obtain the candidate device load for each unit load assessment duration; further, determining the device load of the target device within the unit load assessment duration based on the candidate device loads of multiple unit load assessment durations. The device load within a unit load assessment period can be assessed by determining the change in the cycle counter during the execution of the target task by the target device in each unit load assessment period, and the ratio between the data increments of the cycle counter when the target device is running at the highest frequency throughout the unit load assessment period. This can improve the accuracy of the determined device load when the target device needs to execute the target task through multiple unit load assessment periods.

[0036] It should be noted that in scenarios where the target device needs to complete a target task through multiple unit load assessment durations, the set of period counter values ​​recorded by the terminal device during the processing of the target task within the multiple unit load assessment durations of executing the target task refers to the set of period counter values ​​recorded during the processing of the target task within the multiple unit load assessment durations experienced after executing part or all of the target task.

[0037] Optionally, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device within a unit load assessment time based on the candidate device loads of multiple unit load assessment times may include: determining the average of the candidate device loads of multiple unit load assessment times as the device load of the target device within a unit load assessment time; and, when the target device needs to perform the target task through multiple unit load assessment times, determining a more stable device load assessment result by using the average of the load status of the target device within each unit load assessment time during the execution of the target task.

[0038] The process of determining the target device's load within a unit load assessment time by analyzing the average load of candidate devices over multiple unit load assessment times after the terminal device completes a target task can be implemented based on the second formula, which is: ;(Formula 2) In Formula 2, M represents the total number of unit load assessment durations, and m represents the m-th unit load assessment duration among the multiple unit load assessment durations. For the second cycle counter value every m-th unit load evaluation duration, The counter value for the first cycle is the duration of the m-th unit load assessment.

[0039] Alternatively, the terminal device may determine the candidate device load with the closest target unit load assessment duration to the current time as the target device load within the unit load assessment duration. This is useful when the target device needs to perform the target task over multiple unit load assessment durations; by determining the candidate device load with the closest target unit load assessment duration to the current time, the target device load can be obtained, thus facilitating the acquisition of load assessment results that better reflect the current operating status of the target device.

[0040] In one optional implementation, the terminal device can process tasks concurrently, and the number of target tasks may include multiple tasks. The period counter value set obtained by the terminal device is the set of period counter values ​​recorded during the processing of each target task within a unit load assessment time. Therefore, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the set of period counter values ​​within the unit load assessment time and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment time includes: determining the device load of the target device when processing each target task within the unit load assessment time based on the set of period counter values ​​associated with each target task within the unit load assessment time and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment time; then, determining the sum of the device loads of the target device processing each target task within the unit load assessment time as the device load of the target device within the unit load assessment time. This method can improve the accuracy of the determined target device load in multi-task concurrent processing scenarios when the target device processes multiple target tasks concurrently.

[0041] The process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device for processing each target task within a unit load assessment time based on the set of period counter values ​​associated with each target task and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment time is similar to the specific implementation of the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the set of period counter values ​​within the unit load assessment time and the maximum period counter increment within the unit load assessment time in the above embodiment when the number of target tasks is single. Therefore, this disclosure will not elaborate further on this aspect.

[0042] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this disclosure, when the target task is a non-interruptible task, the terminal device can determine the device load of the target device within the unit load evaluation time determined in the above embodiments as the device load of the target device when processing the target task, so that the user can understand the load of the target device in the process of processing a specific task.

[0043] In one optional implementation, if the target task processing is interrupted, the target device may have processed the target task at least once within at least one unit load assessment duration; that is, the target task is an interrupted task. The cycle counter value set is at least one set of cycle counter values ​​recorded during the processing of the target task within at least one unit load assessment duration. Then, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the cycle counter value sets within the unit load assessment duration and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment duration includes: determining the cycle counter values ​​for each unit load assessment duration. The difference between the second cycle counter value and the first cycle counter value associated with the value group is used to obtain the cycle counter value difference associated with each group of cycle counter values ​​within each unit load assessment duration. Next, the ratio between the cycle counter value difference associated with each group of cycle counter values ​​within each unit load assessment duration and the maximum cycle counter increment is determined to obtain the device load to be processed associated with each group of cycle counter values ​​within each unit load assessment duration. Further, the device load and value associated with each group of cycle counter values ​​within multiple unit load assessment durations are determined as the device load when the target device processes the target task. In the case that the target task has been interrupted, the ratio between the difference between the second cycle counter value and the first cycle counter value recorded after the target device processes the target task once within at least one unit load assessment duration and the maximum cycle counter increment is determined as the device load when the target device processes a portion of the target task. The sum of the device loads of the target device processing each portion of the target task is determined as the device load when the target device processes the target task, thus increasing the device load for interrupted tasks from the perspective of processor frequency changes.

[0044] It is understood that when the load assessment instruction obtained by the terminal device contains a target parameter, or when the load assessment parameter configuration information related to the target device in the terminal device contains a target parameter, the device load of the target device when processing the target task is determined. The load assessment parameter configuration information at least includes the cycle of the terminal device performing device load assessment on the target device. The target parameter is used to instruct the terminal device to determine the device load of the target device when processing the target task. The specific parameter information of the target parameter can be determined based on actual needs, and this disclosure embodiment does not limit it.

[0045] For example, assume that the target device processes task2 twice within a unit load assessment duration m, and completes task2 after processing once within a unit load assessment duration m+1. Specifically, within the unit load assessment duration m, the second cycle counter value recorded by the cycle counter during the first processing step is task2.m1 _end_ cycle, the first cycle counter value recorded by the cycle counter during the first processing step is task2. m1 _start_cycle, the second cycle counter value recorded by the cycle counter during the second processing step is task2. m2 _end_ cycle, the first cycle counter value recorded by the cycle counter during the second processing step is task2. m2 _start_cycle, within the unit load assessment duration m+1, the cycle counter records the second cycle counter value as task2. （m+1）1 _end_ cycle, the first cycle counter value recorded by the cycle counter is task2. （m+1）1 If _start_cycle is defined, then the device load when the target device, as determined by the terminal device, processes the target task 2 is: .

[0046] In one optional implementation, the target device includes multiple processors, and the cycle counter value set is a set of cycle counter values ​​recorded by each processor during the processing of different target tasks within the unit load assessment time. The process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the cycle counter value set within the unit load assessment time and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment time includes: for each processor, determining the processor load of that processor based on the cycle counter value set associated with the processor within the unit load assessment time and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment time; then, determining the sum of the processor loads and values ​​of the multiple processors as the device load of the target device. In cases where the target device includes multiple processors, determining the sum of the processor loads and values ​​of the multiple processors as the device load of the target device can improve the accuracy of the device load determination for multi-core devices based on processor frequency.

[0047] The process by which the terminal device determines the processor load for each processor based on the set of cycle counter values ​​associated with the processor within the unit load assessment time and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment time can be referred to in the above embodiments. In the single-core processor scenario, the process by which the terminal device determines the device load of the target device based on the set of cycle counter values ​​within the unit load assessment time and the maximum cycle counter increment within the unit load assessment time is described in detail in this disclosure.
