gpu_perf

Inspiration

Basically my work has been in performance engineering mostly and I have been fascinated by how that works in gpu world I have profiled in cpu using different profilers but new to gpu performance

What it does

gpu-perf basically does perf for gpu the

How we built it

Codex heavily involved (i am hoping when i am able to test it with nvidia I won't have much to do) using C++ and ebpf (this needs to be refined)

Challenges we ran into

Getting actionable insights from the kernel I would try to set it up in a way that doesn't bother the user privilege but that depends on linux more and what we can get without PERFMON

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'd say I got to understand architecture of my machine better, i utilized sycl to test and run my intel integrated gpu which has opened up doors to new knowledge

What we learned

It is difficult to do it cross vendor and resource constrained. I thought I will be able to run tests against cloud gpus but they are also difficult to do properly
