Ftrace evaluation
get_ftrace_data.sh extracts performance data from ftrace files. The usage is
./get_ftrace_data.sh [-abfhilmopqrtv] PROGUNIT FILES
The options control what data is extracted from the ftrace file, at least one has to be specified (use -h to find out about their significance). PROGUNIT is the name of the subroutine or ftrace region and FILES is a file name or regular expression containing the text output of ftrace.
Vector registers
A short tutorial (PDF) on vector registers. To reproduce the results download the tar ball code_vreg.tar, use <code>make_exe.sh</code> to generate the executable <code>exe.x</code> and run <code>./exe.x < in_100_1000000</code> preferably on a dedicated node.
