Modifying Linux kernel for application benchmarking

Sometimes there is need for the software analyzers to benchmark the software operation on different hardware platforms. Software benchmarking is especially useful when analysis of software execution on grid platforms is performed. The level of diversity of the grid resources can be considerably influential on the execution time and overall efficiency of the grid application.

By default, the Linux kernels do not perform counting on many events associated with application execution (L2 cache misses, FLOPS counting etc.). Therefore, in order to be able to do application benchmarking, a special patch must be implemented in a fresh kernel source. Additionally, after the kernel source is patched, it must be recompiled and activated.

Handling “integer constant is too large for “long” type” error

This kind of compiler error happens when an integer is too large to be stored in a single 32-bit register. A common situation is when a user is compiling 64-bit optimized code on a 32-bit machine. Therefore, one register of the 64-bit machine has size of two registers of a 32-bit machine. So, in order to compile integer that long, the user has to inform the processor that the integer has to be stored on two 32-bit registers (all together, 64 bits).

Commonly, the type of the integer can be changed to “long long int”

Example:

long long int var = 10000000000;

Another option is specifying the type using the suffix LL.

int var = 10000000000LL;

There are other suffixes available. For instance, if the variable is unsigned (cannot contain negative values,but can store values of larger magnitude than the signed type), you can safely use the suffix LLU.

Example:

int var = 10000000000LLU;

Linux towards mass acceptance: Installation process

The hardships of installing new software on Linux. Despite our enthusiasm, we must admit, we have all experienced them. Missing dependencies, strange compiling errors, old versions of installed packages … Is this the problem number one on the road to complete Linux globalization? Small debate might be adequate.

The time when UNIX-like systems were a privilege to the geek and hi-techie community is long gone. We have seen package management systems, graphic installers, improved GUI interface and so many other novelties. If we simply ask ourselves why all this has been done, the most reasonable answer would be – reach to more users and make the Linux more user-friendly. Therefore, we can easily conclude that the Linux OS has set its path to something that its most fierce counterpart, Windows, has it for a long time – acceptance of the masses, people of all technical background profiles.

Yougapi Technology has chosen Linux

We have chosen Linux that is the most widely used server technology to host our websites and web applications.

And of it’s a natural choice because we built applications based on PHP and MySQL. A company that use ASP would naturally go with a Microsoft server (IIS for example). But most PHP based applications use Linux as a server, since it’s more affordable (Linux is free) and has proven over the years its reliability.

Some example of our products can be seen on: yougapi.com/demo

Of course today we can host PHP on Microsoft server, but it’s more costy and we are not sure if the MySQL database plateform can be hosted on a Microsoft server.

This is our first post on Linux.edu and hope to come back to you soon with other articles talking about some technologies or programming techniques we are working on.
