Command Line Interface

The fex.py file is a central point of managing benchmarks. It has four main commands:

• install - installs a benchmark/compiler by name

./fex.py install -n foo

Under the hood it looks at all installation scripts in the install directory and runs the first one that matches the name foo.sh.

• run - runs an experiment

./fex.py run -n foo_bar --num_threads N -r M --type baz

This command runs the experiment named foo_bar (located in experiments/exp_foo_bar) M times and using, if possible, N threads. Build constants (and all other parameters) are defined in Makefile makefiles/Makefile.baz.

• collect - parse logs and retrieve results

./fex.py collect -n foo_bar --stats perf

• plot - build plot based on received results

./fex.py plot -n foo_bar -t perf
