[$] AutoFDO and Propeller

Date:
Mon, 28 Oct 2024 15:15:19 +0000

Description:
Rong Xu and
Han Shen described the kernel-optimization techniques that Google uses in the 
toolchains
track at the 2024 Linux
Plumbers Conference .
They talked about automatic
feedback-directed optimization (AutoFDO), which can be used with the 
Propeller optimizer to produce kernels with better performance using profile
information gathered from real workloads.  There is a fair amount of
overlap between these tools and the BOLT post-link optimizer, which was the 
subject of a talk that directly preceded this session.
