\enum starpu_perfmodel_archtype
\ingroup API_Performance_Model
Enumerates the various types of architectures.
it is possible that we have multiple versions of the same kind of
workers, for instance multiple GPUs or even different CPUs within
the same machine so we do not use the archtype enum type directly
for performance models.
- CPU types range within ::STARPU_CPU_DEFAULT (1 CPU),
::STARPU_CPU_DEFAULT+1 (2 CPUs), ... ::STARPU_CPU_DEFAULT +
STARPU_MAXCPUS - 1 (STARPU_MAXCPUS CPUs).
- CUDA types range within ::STARPU_CUDA_DEFAULT (GPU number 0),
::STARPU_CUDA_DEFAULT + 1 (GPU number 1), ..., ::STARPU_CUDA_DEFAULT +
STARPU_MAXCUDADEVS - 1 (GPU number STARPU_MAXCUDADEVS - 1).
- OpenCL types range within ::STARPU_OPENCL_DEFAULT (GPU number
0), ::STARPU_OPENCL_DEFAULT + 1 (GPU number 1), ...,
::STARPU_OPENCL_DEFAULT + STARPU_MAXOPENCLDEVS - 1 (GPU number
STARPU_MAXOPENCLDEVS - 1).

\struct starpu_perfmodel
Contains all information about a performance model. At least the
type and symbol fields have to be filled when defining a performance
model for a codelet. For compatibility, make sure to initialize the
whole structure to zero, either by using explicit memset, or by
letting the compiler implicitly do it in e.g. static storage case. If
not provided, other fields have to be zero.
\ingroup API_Performance_Model
\var starpu_perfmodel::type
is the type of performance model
- ::STARPU_HISTORY_BASED, ::STARPU_REGRESSION_BASED,
::STARPU_NL_REGRESSION_BASED: No other fields needs to be provided,
this is purely history-based.
- ::STARPU_PER_ARCH: field starpu_perfmodel::per_arch has to be
filled with functions which return the cost in micro-seconds.
- ::STARPU_COMMON: field starpu_perfmodel::cost_function has to be
filled with a function that returns the cost in micro-seconds on a
CPU, timing on other archs will be determined by multiplying by an
arch-specific factor.
\var starpu_perfmodel::symbol
is the symbol name for the performance model, which will be used as
file name to store the model. It must be set otherwise the model will
be ignored.
\var starpu_perfmodel::cost_model
\deprecated
This field is deprecated. Use instead the field starpu_perfmodel::cost_function field.

must return a task duration estimation in micro-seconds.
\var starpu_perfmodel::size_base

::STARPU_NL_REGRESSION_BASED. If not NULL, takes a task and
implementation number, and returns the size to be used as index for

the array is already indexed by these), and must return a task
duration estimation in micro-seconds.

loads a given performance model. The model structure has to be
completely zero, and will be filled with the information saved in

\ingroup API_Performance_Model
This feeds the performance model model with an explicit
measurement measured (in µs), in addition to measurements done by StarPU
itself. This can be useful when the application already has an
existing set of measurements done in good conditions, that StarPU
could benefit from instead of doing on-line measurements. And example
of use can be seen in \ref PerformanceModelExample.
