* Drop Stat1, refactor statistics to be user-providable, add median.
My main goal was to add median statistic. Since Stat1
calculated the stats incrementally, and did not store
the values themselves, it is was not possible. Thus,
i have replaced Stat1 with simple std::vector<double>,
containing all the values.
Then, i have refactored current mean/stdev to be a
function that is provided with values vector, and
returns the statistic. While there, it seemed to make
sense to deduplicate the code by storing all the
statistics functions in a map, and then simply iterate
over it. And the interface to add new statistics is
intentionally exposed, so they may be added easily.
The notable change is that Iterations are no longer
displayed as 0 for stdev. Is could be changed, but
i'm not sure how to nicely fit that into the API.
Similarly, this dance about sometimes (for some fields,
for some statistics) dividing by run.iterations, and
then multiplying the calculated stastic back is also
dropped, and if you do the math, i fail to see why
it was needed there in the first place.
Since that was the only use of stat.h, it is removed.

When generating a human-readable number for user counters, we don't
generally expect 1k to be 1024. This is the default due to the more
general purpose string utility.
Fixes#437
2373382284
reworked parsing, and introduced a regression
in handling of the optional options that
should be passed to both of the benchmarks.
Now, unless the *first* optional argument starts with
'-', it would just complain about that argument:
Unrecognized positional argument arguments: '['q']'
which is wrong. However if some dummy arg like '-q' was
passed first, it would then happily passthrough them all...
This commit fixes benchmark_options behavior, by
restoring original passthrough behavior for all
the optional positional arguments.
The benchmark library is compiled as C++11, but certain
tests are compiled as C++03. When -flto is enabled GCC 5.4
and above will diagnose an ODR violation in libstdc++'s <map>.
This ODR violation, although real, should likely be benign. For
this reason it seems sensible to simply suppress -Wodr when building
the C++03 test.
This patch fixes#420 and supersede's PR #424.
While the percentages are displayed for both of the columns,
the old/new values are only displayed for the second column,
for the CPU time. And the column is not even spelled out.
In cases where b->UseRealTime(); is used, this is at the
very least highly confusing. So why don't we just
display both the old/new for both the columns?
Fixes#425
* Json reporter: passthrough fp, don't cast it to int; adjust tooling
Json output format is generally meant for further processing
using some automated tools. Thus, it makes sense not to
intentionally limit the precision of the values contained
in the report.
As it can be seen, FormatKV() for doubles, used %.2f format,
which was meant to preserve at least some of the precision.
However, before that function is ever called, the doubles
were already cast to the integer via RoundDouble()...
This is also the case for console reporter, where it makes
sense because the screen space is limited, and this reporter,
however the CSV reporter does output some( decimal digits.
Thus i can only conclude that the loss of the precision
was not really considered, so i have decided to adjust the
code of the json reporter to output the full fp precision.
There can be several reasons why that is the right thing
to do, the bigger the time_unit used, the greater the
precision loss, so i'd say any sort of further processing
(like e.g. tools/compare_bench.py does) is best done
on the values with most precision.
Also, that cast skewed the data away from zero, which
i think may or may not result in false- positives/negatives
in the output of tools/compare_bench.py
* Json reporter: FormatKV(double): address review note
* tools/gbench/report.py: skip benchmarks with different time units
While it may be useful to teach it to operate on the
measurements with different time units, which is now
possible since floats are stored, and not the integers,
but for now at least doing such a sanity-checking
is better than providing misinformation.
Change ThreadCPUUsage to call ProcessCPUUsage if __rtems__ is defined.
RTEMS real time OS doesn't support CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID. See
https://github.com/RTEMS/rtems/blob/master/cpukit/posix/src/clockgettime.c#L58-L59
Prior to this change, ThreadCPUUsage would fail when running on RTEMS with:
ERROR: clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID, ...) failed
* Make Benchmark a single header library (but not header-only)
This patch refactors benchmark into a single header, to allow
for slightly easier usage.
The initial reason for the header split was to keep C++ library
components from being included by benchmark_api.h, making that
part of the library STL agnostic. However this has since changed
and there seems to be little reason to separate the reporters from
the rest of the library.
* Fix internal_macros.h
* Remove more references to macros.h
* Add ClearRegisteredBenchmark() function.
Since benchmarks can be registered at runtime using the RegisterBenchmark(...)
functions, it makes sense to have a ClearRegisteredBenchmarks() function too,
that can be used at runtime to clear the currently registered benchmark and
re-register an entirely new set.
This allows users to run a set of registered benchmarks, get the output using
a custom reporter, and then clear and re-register new benchmarks based on the
previous results.
This fixes issue #400, at least partially.
* Remove unused change
* Fix#342: DoNotOptimize causes compile errors on older GCC versions.
DoNotOptimize uses inline assembly contraints to tell
the compiler what the type of the input variable. The 'g'
operand allows the input to be any register, memory, or
immediate integer operand. However this constraint seems
to be too weak on older GCC versions, and certain inputs
will cause compile errors.
This patch changes the constraint to 'X', which is documented
as "any operand whatsoever is allowed". This appears to fix
the issues with older GCC versions.
However Clang doesn't seem to like "X", and will attempt
to put the input into a register even when it can't/shouldn't;
causing a compile error. However using "g" seems to work like
"X" with GCC, so for this reason Clang still uses "g".
* Try alternative formulation to placate GCC
Using target_include_directories CMake will implicitly add the the
necessary include paths to targets which link against the benchmark
library. This is useful when the benchmark repo is included as a
subdirectory in another CMake build.
This thing with the pragma ignore was getting out of hand: now
MinGW (and probably GCC) was erroring too. So I chose to move
the definition of IsZero() out of the anonymous namespace into
benchmark.cc.
This prevents errors when additional non-timing data are present in
the JSON that is loaded, for example when complexity data has been
computed (see #379).
