Omniperf offers several ways to interact with the metrics it generates from profiling. The option you choose will likey be influnced by your familiarity with the profiled application, computing enviroment, and experience with Omniperf.

While analyzing with the CLI offers quick and straightforward access to Omniperf metrics from terminal, the GUI adds an extra layer of styling and interactiveness some users may prefer.

See sections below for more information on each.

CLI Analysis

Profiling results from the aforementioned vcopy workload will be used in 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.

Features

  • All Omniperf built-in metrics.
  • Multiple runs base line comparison.
  • Metrics customization: pick up subset of build-in metrics or build your own profiling configuration.
  • Kernel, gpu-id, dispatch-id filters.

Run omniperf analyze -h for more details.

  1. To begin, generate a comprehensive analysis report with Omniperf CLI.
$ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/

Demo

  • Single run

    $ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/
    
  • List top kernels

    $ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/  --list-kernels
    
  • List metrics

    $ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/  --list-metrics gfx90a
    
  • Customized profiling "System Speed-of-Light" and "CS_Busy" only

    $ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/  -b 2  5.1.0
    

    Note: Users can filter single metric or the whole IP block by its id. In this case, 1 is the id for "system speed of light" and 5.1.0 the id for metric "GPU Busy Cycles".

  • Filter kernels

    First, list the top kernels in your application using --list-kernels.

    $ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/ --list-kernels
    
    --------
    Analyze
    --------

    Note: You'll see your filtered kernel(s) indicated by a asterisk in the Top Stats table

  • Baseline comparison

    omniperf analyze -p workload1/path/  -p workload2/path/
    

    Note: You can also apply diffrent filters to each workload.

    OR

    omniperf analyze -p workload1/path/ -k 0  -p workload2/path/ -k 1
    

GUI Analysis

Web-based GUI

Features

Omniperf's standalone GUI analyzer is a lightweight web page that can be generated directly from the command-line. This option is provided as an alternative for users wanting to explore profiling results graphically, but without the additional setup requirements or server-side overhead of Omniperf's detailed Grafana interface option. The standalone GUI analyzer is provided as simple Flask application allowing users to view results from within a web browser.


Note that the standalone GUI analyzer publishes a web interface on port 8050 by default.
On production HPC systems where profiling jobs run
under the auspices of a resource manager, additional SSH tunneling
between the desired web browser host (e.g. login node or remote workstation) and compute host may be
required. Alternatively, users may find it more convenient to download
profiled workloads to perform analysis on their local system.

See [FAQ](https://rocm.github.io/omniperf/faq.html) for more details on SSH tunneling.

Usage

To launch the standalone GUI, include the --gui flag with your desired analysis command. For example:

$ omniperf analyze -p workloads/vcopy/mi200/ --gui

--------
Analyze
--------

Dash is running on http://0.0.0.0:8050/

 * Serving Flask app 'rocprof_compute_analyze.rocprof_compute_analyze' (lazy loading)
 * Environment: production
   WARNING: This is a development server. Do not use it in a production deployment.
   Use a production WSGI server instead.
 * Debug mode: off
 * Running on all addresses (0.0.0.0)
   WARNING: This is a development server. Do not use it in a production deployment.
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:8050
 * Running on http://10.228.32.139:8050 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

At this point, users can then launch their web browser of choice and go to http://localhost:8050/ to see an analysis page.

Standalone GUI Homepage

To launch the web application on a port other than 8050, include an optional port argument:  
`--gui <desired port>`

When no filters are applied, users will see five basic sections derived from their application's profiling data:

  1. Memory Chart Analysis
  2. Empirical Roofline Analysis
  3. Top Stats (Top Kernel Statistics)
  4. System Info
  5. System Speed-of-Light

To dive deeper, use the top drop down menus to isolate particular kernel(s) or dispatch(s). You will then see the web page update with metrics specific to the filter you've applied.

Once you have applied a filter, you will also see several additional sections become available with detailed metrics specific to that area of AMD hardware. These detailed sections mirror the data displayed in Omniperf's Grafana interface.

Grafana-based GUI

Features

The Omniperf Grafana GUI Analyzer supports the following features to facilitate MI GPU performance profiling and analysis:

  • System and IP-Block Speed-of-Light (SOL)
  • Multiple normalization options, including per-cycle, per-wave, per-kernel and per-second.
  • Baseline comparisons
  • Regex based Dispatch ID filtering
  • Roofline Analysis
  • Detailed per IP Block performance counters and metrics
    • CPC/CPF
    • SPI
    • SQ
    • SQC
    • TA/TD
    • TCP
    • TCC (both aggregated and per-channel perf info)
Speed-of-Light

Speed-of-light panels are provided at both the system and per IP block level to help diagnosis performance bottlenecks. The performance numbers of the workload under testing are compared to the theoretical maximum, (e.g. floating point operations, bandwidth, cache hit rate, etc.), to indicate the available room to further utilize the hardware capability.

Multi Normalization

Multiple performance number normalizations are provided to allow performance inspection within both HW and SW context. The following normalizations are permitted:

  • per cycle
  • per wave
  • per kernel
  • per second
Baseline Comparison

Omniperf enables baseline comparison to allow checking A/B effect. The current release limits the baseline comparison to the same SoC. Cross comparison between SoCs is in development.

For both the Current Workload and the Baseline Workload, one can independently setup the following filters to allow fine grained comparions:

  • Workload Name
  • GPU ID filtering (multi selection)
  • Kernel Name filtering (multi selection)
  • Dispatch ID filtering (Regex filtering)
  • Omniperf Panels (multi selection)
Regex based Dispatch ID filtering

This release enables regex based dispatch ID filtering to flexibly choose the kernel invocations. One may refer to Regex Numeric Range Generator, to generate typical number ranges.

For example, if one wants to inspect Dispatch Range from 17 to 48, inclusive, the corresponding regex is : (1[7-9]|[23]\d|4[0-8]). The generated express can be copied over for filtering.

Incremental Profiling

Omniperf supports incremental profiling to significantly speed up performance analysis.

Refer to IP Block profiling section for this command.

By default, the entire application is profiled to collect perfmon counter for all IP blocks, giving a system level view of where the workload stands in terms of performance optimization opportunities and bottlenecks.

After that one may focus on only a few IP blocks, (e.g., L1 Cache or LDS) to closely check the effect of software optimizations, without performing application replay for all other IP Blocks. This saves lots of compute time. In addition, the prior profiling results for other IP blocks are not overwritten. Instead, they can be merged during the import to piece together the system view.

Color Coding

The uniform color coding is applied to most visualizations (bars, table, diagrams etc). Typically, Yellow color means over 50%, while Red color mean over 90% percent, for easy inspection.

Global Variables and Configurations

Grafana GUI Global Variables

Grafana GUI Import

The omniperf database --import option imports the raw profiling data to Grafana's backend MongoDB database. This step is only required for Grafana GUI based performance analysis.

Default username and password for MongoDB (to be used in database mode) are as follows:

  • Username: temp
  • Password: temp123

Each workload is imported to a separate database with the following naming convention:

omniperf_<team>_<database>_<soc>

e.g., omniperf_asw_vcopy_mi200.

When using database mode, be sure to tailor the connection options to the machine hosting your sever-side instance. Below is the sample command to import the vcopy profiling data, lets assuming our host machine is called "dummybox".

$ omniperf database --help
ROC Profiler:  /usr/bin/rocprof
