1 // This artificial program runs a lot of code. The exact amount depends on
2 // the command line -- if an arg "0" is given, it does exactly
3 // the same amount of work, but using four times as much code.
4 // If an arg >= 1 is given, the amount of code is multiplied by this arg.
5 //
6 // It's a stress test for Valgrind's translation speed; natively the two
7 // modes run in about the same time (the I-cache effects aren't big enough
8 // to make a difference), but under Valgrind the one running more code is
9 // significantly slower due to the extra translation time.
11 // 31 Aug 2015: this only "works" on x86/amd64/s390 by accident; the
12 // test is essentially kludged. This "generates" code into memory
13 // (the mmap'd area) and the executes it. But historically and even
14 // after this commit (r15601), the test has been run without
15 // --smc-check=all or all-non-file. That just happens to work because
16 // the "generated" code is never modified, so there's never a
17 // translated-vs-reality coherence problem. Really we ought to run
18 // with the new-as-of-r15601 default --smc-check=all-non-file, but that
19 // hugely slows it down and makes the results non-comparable with
20 // pre r15601 results, so instead the .vgperf files now specify the
21 // old default value --smc-check=stack explicitly.
