+## libc benchmarks (bionic-benchmarks)
+
+`bionic-benchmarks` is a command line tool for measuring the runtimes of libc functions. It is built
+on top of [Google Benchmark](https://github.com/google/benchmark) with some additions to organize
 tests into suites.
 
-Running the benchmarks
-----------------------
-
 ### Device benchmarks
 
-    $ mma
-    $ adb remount
-    $ adb sync
+    $ mmma bionic/benchmarks
+    $ adb root
+    $ adb sync data
     $ adb shell /data/benchmarktest/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks

-of the benchmarks in alphabetical order.

-To choose a specific xml file, use the `--bionic_xml=FILE.XML` option. By default, this
-option searches for the xml file in the `suites/` directory. If it doesn't exist
-in that directory then the file will be found as relative to the current
-directory. If the option specifies the full path to an xml file such as
-`/data/nativetest/suites/example.xml`, it will be used as is.

+
+## Process startup time (bionic-spawn-benchmarks)
+
+The `spawn/` subdirectory has a few benchmarks measuring the time used to start simple programs
+(e.g. Toybox's `true` and `sh -c true`). Run it on a device like so:
+
+    m bionic-spawn-benchmarks
+    adb root
+    adb sync data
+    adb shell /data/benchmarktest/bionic-spawn-benchmarks/bionic-spawn-benchmarks
+    adb shell /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-spawn-benchmarks/bionic-spawn-benchmarks
+
+Google Benchmark reports both a real-time figure ("Time") and a CPU usage figure. For these
+benchmarks, the CPU measurement only counts time spent in the thread calling `posix_spawn`, not that
+spent in the spawned process. The real-time is probably more useful, and it is the figure used to
+determine the iteration count.
+
+Locking the CPU frequency seems to improve the results of these benchmarks significantly, and it
+reduces variability.
+
+## Google Benchmark notes
+
+### Repetitions
+
+Google Benchmark uses two settings to control how many times to run each benchmark, "iterations" and
+"repetitions". By default, the repetition count is one. Google Benchmark runs the benchmark a few
+times to determine a sufficiently-large iteration count.
+
+Google Benchmark can optionally run a benchmark run repeatedly and report statistics (median, mean,
+standard deviation) for the runs. To do so, pass the `--benchmark_repetitions` option, e.g.:
+
+    # ./bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --benchmark_repetitions=4
+    ...
+    -------------------------------------------------------------------
+    Benchmark                         Time             CPU   Iterations
+    -------------------------------------------------------------------
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll              27.7 ns         27.7 ns     25290525
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll              27.7 ns         27.7 ns     25290525
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll              27.7 ns         27.7 ns     25290525
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll              27.8 ns         27.7 ns     25290525

+
+There are 4 runs, each with 25290525 iterations. Measurements for the individual runs can be
+suppressed if they aren't needed:
+
+    # ./bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --benchmark_repetitions=4 --benchmark_report_aggregates_only
+    ...

+
+### CPU frequencies
+
+To get consistent results between runs, it can sometimes be helpful to restrict a benchmark to
+specific cores, or to lock cores at specific frequencies. Some phones have a big.LITTLE core setup,
+or at least allow some cores to run at higher frequencies than others.
+
+A core can be selected for `bionic-benchmarks` using the `--bionic_cpu` option or using the
+`taskset` utility. e.g. A Pixel 3 device has 4 Kryo 385 Silver cores followed by 4 Gold cores:
+
+    blueline:/ # /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --bionic_cpu=0
+    ...
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    Benchmark                  Time             CPU   Iterations
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll       64.2 ns         63.6 ns     11017493
+
+    blueline:/ # /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll --bionic_cpu=4
+    ...
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    Benchmark                  Time             CPU   Iterations
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll       21.8 ns         21.7 ns     33167103
+
+A similar result can be achieved using `taskset`. The first parameter is a bitmask of core numbers
+to pass to `sched_setaffinity`:
+
+    blueline:/ # taskset f /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll
+    ...
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    Benchmark                  Time             CPU   Iterations
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll       64.3 ns         63.6 ns     10998697
+
+    blueline:/ # taskset f0 /data/benchmarktest64/bionic-benchmarks/bionic-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=BM_stdlib_strtoll
+    ...
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    Benchmark                  Time             CPU   Iterations
+    ------------------------------------------------------------
+    BM_stdlib_strtoll       21.3 ns         21.2 ns     33094801
+
+To lock the CPU frequency, use the sysfs interface at `/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/`.
+Changing the scaling governor to `performance` suppresses the warning that Google Benchmark
+otherwise prints:
+
+    ***WARNING*** CPU scaling is enabled, the benchmark real time measurements may be noisy and will incur extra overhead.
+
+Some devices have a `perf-setup.sh` script that locks CPU and GPU frequencies. Some TradeFed
+benchmarks appear to be using the script. For more information:
+ * run `get_build_var BOARD_PERFSETUP_SCRIPT`
+ * run `m perf-setup.sh` to install the script into `${OUT}/data/local/tmp/perf-setup.sh`
+ * see: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/platform_testing/+/refs/heads/master/scripts/perf-setup/
