CPU Performance测试（CoreMark、BenchMark）

​1）本章主要讲解CPU性能测试工具CoreMark使用说明，其他ARM SOC厂商（MTK/海思/Mstar/Amlogic/SigmaStar/全志/RockChip平台）都适用。

2）适用于对C/C++语言有基本的认识，以及对Linux环境有基本的掌握能力。

简介：CoreMark是一款用于评估CPU Performance性能BenchMark的基准测试程序，CoreMark目前取代了过时的 Dhrystone 基准测试，它包含了多种不同的计算任务，包括浮点数、整数、缓存、内存等方面的测试。CoreMark的测试结果通常被用来作为ARM/RISC-V 32位、64位  CPU性能的参考，它可以帮助开发人员和系统管理员评估不同处理器和系统的性能，比较不同处理器之间的性能差异，也可以用来测试处理器在多线程并行计算方面的性能。

通过对原生的工具做修改修改添加不同平台架构支持，如下多种架构CPU的支持项：（后面贴如何新增以及对应的修改记录）
Cortex-A7 
Cortex-A9 
Cortex-A32 
Cortex-A35 
Cortex-A53 
Cortex-A55
aarch64 Cortex-A35 
aarch64 Cortex-A55
Risc-V
.......等等

编译:
1：首先需要修改对应架构下的core_portme.mak文件
2：添加编译参数：-mcpu=cortex-a32 -mfpu=neon -static -O3
3：修改编译器CC：arm-linux-gnueabihf-
如下一个参考的配置：

#File: core_portme.mak
CROSS_COMPILE = arm-linux-gnueabihf-
# Flag: OUTFLAG
#	Use this flag to define how to to get an executable (e.g -o)
OUTFLAG= -o
# Flag: CC
#	Use this flag to define compiler to use
CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc
# Flag: CFLAGS
#	Use this flag to define compiler options. Note, you can add compiler options from the command line using XCFLAGS="other flags"
PORT_CFLAGS = -mcpu=cortex-a32 -mfpu=neon -static -O3
FLAGS_STR = "$(PORT_CFLAGS) $(XCFLAGS) $(XLFLAGS) $(LFLAGS_END)"
CFLAGS = $(PORT_CFLAGS) -I$(PORT_DIR) -I. -DFLAGS_STR=\"$(FLAGS_STR)\"
#Flag: LFLAGS_END
#	Define any libraries needed for linking or other flags that should come at the end of the link line (e.g. linker scripts). 
#	Note: On certain platforms, the default clock_gettime implementation is supported but requires linking of librt.
LFLAGS_END += -lrt
# Flag: PORT_SRCS
# Port specific source files can be added here
PORT_SRCS = $(PORT_DIR)/core_portme.c
# Flag: LOAD
#	Define this flag if you need to load to a target, as in a cross compile environment.

# Flag: RUN
#	Define this flag if running does not consist of simple invocation of the binary.
#	In a cross compile environment, you need to define this.

#For flashing and using a tera term macro, you could use
#LOAD = flash ADDR 
#RUN =  ttpmacro coremark.ttl

#For copying to target and executing via SSH connection, you could use
#LOAD = scp $(OUTFILE)  user@target:~
#RUN = ssh user@target -c  

#For native compilation and execution
LOAD = echo Loading done
RUN = 

OEXT = .o
EXE = .exe

# Flag: SEPARATE_COMPILE
# Define if you need to separate compilation from link stage. 
# In this case, you also need to define below how to create an object file, and how to link.
ifdef SEPARATE_COMPILE

LD		= $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc
OBJOUT 	= -o
LFLAGS 	=
OFLAG 	= -o
COUT 	= -c
# Flag: PORT_OBJS
# Port specific object files can be added here
PORT_OBJS = $(PORT_DIR)/core_portme$(OEXT)
PORT_CLEAN = *$(OEXT)

$(OPATH)%$(OEXT) : %.c
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(XCFLAGS) $(COUT) $< $(OBJOUT) $@
.....
.....

为了编译不同架构的测试程序，我新建一个编译的工具：

build.sh为了编译32位架构的CPU CoreMark测试程序，build_aarch64.sh是为了编译64位架构的CPU CoreMark测试程序，如下是32位程序编译产物：

测试：（CA32平台测试)

/tmp # ./coremark-arm_ca32

CoreMark 1.0 : 2117.597233 / GCC11.1.0 -mcpu=cortex-a32 -mfpu=neon -static -O3   -lrt / Heap

CoreMark 1.0 : 2117.597233即为本次测试得分，类似于手机的安兔兔跑分一样，分值越高性能越好。如下是完整的修改源码：
