The Omniperf repository includes source code for a sample GPU compute workload, vcopy.cpp. A copy of this file is available in the share/sample subdirectory after a normal Omniperf installation, or via the $OMNIPERF_SHARE/sample directory when using the supplied modulefile.

A compiled version of this workload is used throughout the following sections to demonstrate the use of Omniperf in MI GPU performance analysis. Unless otherwise noted, the performance analysis is done on the MI200 platform.

Workload Compilation

vcopy compilation:

$ hipcc vcopy.cpp -o vcopy
$ ls

Omniperf Profiling

The omniperf script, available through the Omniperf repository, is used to aquire all necessary performance monitoring data through analysis of compute workloads.

  • The -k <kernel> flag allows for kernel filtering, which is compatible with the current rocProf utility.

  • The -d <dispatch> flag allows for dispatch ID filtering, which is compatible with the current rocProf utility.

  • The -b <ipblocks> allows system profiling on one or more selected hardware components to speed up the profiling process. One can gradually include more hardware components, without overwriting performance data acquired on other hardware components.

The following sample command profiles the vcopy workload.

$ omniperf profile --name vcopy -- ./vcopy -n 1048576 -b 256

You will notice two main stages in default Omniperf profiling. The first stage collects all the counters needed for Omniperf analysis (omitting any filters you have provided). The second stage collects data for the roofline analysis (this stage can be disabled using --no-roof)

In this document, we use the term System on Chip (SoC) to refer to a particular family of accelerators. At the end of profiling, all resulting csv files should be located in a SoC specific target directory, e.g.:

  • "mi200" for the AMD Instinct (tm) MI200 family of accelerators
  • "mi100" for the AMD Instinct (tm) MI100 family of accelerators etc. The SoC names are generated as a part of Omniperf, and do not necessarily distinguish between different accelerators in the same family (e.g., an AMD Instinct (tm) MI210 vs an MI250)

Note: Additionally, you will notice a few extra files. An SoC parameters file, sysinfo.csv, is created to reflect the target device settings. All profiling output is stored in log.txt. Roofline specific benchmark results are stored in roofline.csv.

Filtering

To reduce profiling time and the counters collected one may use profiling filters. Profiling filters and their functionality depend on the underlying profiler being used. While Omniperf is profiler agnostic, we have provided a detailed description of profiling filters available when using Omniperf with rocProf below.

Filtering Options:

  • The -k <kernel> flag allows for kernel filtering. Useage is equivalent with the current rocProf utility (see details below).

  • The -d <dispatch> flag allows for dispatch ID filtering. Useage is equivalent with the current rocProf utility (see details below).

  • The -b <ipblocks> allows system profiling on one or more selected hardware components to speed up the profiling process. One can gradually include more hardware components, without overwriting performance data acquired on other hardware components.

Be cautious while combining different profiling filters in the same call. Conflicting filters may result in error.

i.e. filtering dispatch X, but dispatch X does not match your kernel name filter

Hardware Component Filtering

One can profile specific hardware components to speed up the profiling process. In Omniperf, we use the term IP block to refer to a hardware component or a group of hardware components. All profiling results are accumulated in the same target directory, without overwriting those for other hardware components, hence enabling the incremental profiling and analysis.

The following example only gathers hardware counters for the Shader Sequencer (SQ) and L2 Cache (TCC) components, skipping all other hardware components:

$ omniperf profile --name vcopy -b SQ TCC -- ./vcopy -n 1048576 -b 256

Kernel Filtering

Kernel filtering is based on the name of the kernel(s) you would like to isolate. Use a kernel name substring list to isolate desired kernels.

The following example demonstrates profiling isolating the kernel matching substring "vecCopy":

$ omniperf profile --name vcopy -k vecCopy -- ./vcopy -n 1048576 -b 256

  ___                  _                  __

Dispatch Filtering

Dispatch filtering is based on the global dispatch index of kernels in a run.

The following example profiles only the 0th dispatched kernel in execution of the application:

$ omniperf profile --name vcopy -d 0 -- ./vcopy -n 1048576 -b 256

  ___                  _                  __

Standalone Roofline

If you are only interested in generating roofline analysis data try using --roof-only. This will only collect counters relevant to roofline, as well as generate a standalone .pdf output of your roofline plot.

Standalone Roofline Options:

  • The --sort <desired_sort> allows you to specify whether you would like to overlay top kernel or top dispatch data in your roofline plot.

  • The -m <cache_level> allows you to specify specific level(s) of cache you would like to include in your roofline plot.

  • The --device <gpu_id> allows you to specify a device id to collect performace data from when running our roofline benchmark on your system.

  • If you would like to distinguish different kernels in your .pdf roofline plot use --kernel-names. This will give each kernel a unique marker identifiable from the plot's key.

Roofline Only

The following example demonstrates profiling roofline data only:

$ omniperf profile --name vcopy --roof-only -- ./vcopy -n 1048576 -b 256
