Peak MHz profiling

Hi Bohr,

Start by seeing whether the information under "Module Profile Type" in this article is of use.  You will need to run several passes of profiling and then look to see which modules show the greatest variation.  Is this helpful?

Hi Bohr,

Please try using the following function (set_profiling_options) at the MATLAB console to enable peak profiling mode.

>> help set_profiling_options
  SUCCESS = set_profiling_options(instanceID, profilingOptions)
  Set the profiling options in an instance.
 
  Arguments: 
    instanceID - Instance ID in which to set the module profiling type.
 
    optionsMask  - Mask corresponding to the profiling option. Default to 
                   combined mask for all profiling options
    profilingOptions - value of profiling options. It can be a single or 
                       combination of the following options.
                       Bit 0 value of 0x0 - Average profiling on modules (default)
                       Bit 0 value of 0x1 - Peak profiling on modules
                       Bit 1 value of 0x0 - Enable accurate profiling (default)
                       Bit 1 value of 0x1 - Disable accurate profiling

It is not possible to convert a layout done via MATLAB scripting directly to an AWD.

Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Bohr,

Different Instance Ids are associated with implementations that have more than one AWECore running on the SoC.

See:  Multi-Instance AWE Core Integration Guide

Using the Native mode as an example, see in AWE Server that this supports 4 Instances, 0, 1, 2, 3.  

In the layout, the InstanceID is shown under the Module as highlighted.  Use the Change Thread module to change between instances in a single layout.

Regarding accessing the Instance ID of a module via MATLAB, use the "coreID" property:

Regarding setting profiling options, the actual calling sequence is:

function SUCCESS = set_profiling_options(instanceID, optionsMask, profilingOptions)

Regarding the MATLAB function get_profiling_options(), it has multiple return values, as shown:

function [profilingOptions, status] = get_profiling_options(instanceID)

Here's a code snippet demonstrating their use:

        [profilingOptions, status] = get_profiling_options();

        verifyEqual(testCase, status, 1);

        verifyEqual(testCase, profilingOptions, 0); % 0x0 | (0x0 << 1)

Thanks, Gary
