Adreno Profiler Introduction

What is Adreno Profiler? Graphics performance analysis tool for

3D content Integrated into the Qualcomm graphics

driver

Who is using it? Primarily designed for 3D content

developers Qualcomm uses it internally, as well as

distributing to customers and 3rd party content developers

| 17

Adreno Profiler Motivation

Why use Adreno Profiler? GPU optimization is difficult Many different factors can impact performance on a graphics chip

Difficult to find without a profiler

Adreno Profiler has a competitive range of features for optimization

e.g. Hardware based performance counters, per-render call metrics, shader prototyping (with immediate deployment to device), among many others

Fast experimentation with Adreno Profiler Developers can find problems and improvements quickly Visualizing bottlenecks is easier allowing faster optimization Quickly prototype changes without any modification to their application

| 18

Using Adreno Profiler

How does Adreno Profiler connect to the device? Connects to the target device through a USB connection

What does it cost? No fee to download tool! Go to www.qdevnet.com (requires simple log-in/account set up)

What platforms do we support? Brew (Brew Mobile Platform support coming), Windows Mobile 6.1, 6.5,

Android (Cupcake, Donut, clair, Froyo) and Linux LE on Qualcomm chipsets Client runs on PCs with Windows XP or Windows 7 and requires a graphics card

supporting OpenGL shader model 2.0 or later

Profiling TechniquesDiscovering Problems and Validating Their Impact

| 20

DiscoveryWhere Are the Problems in Your Application

| 21

Profiling Modes

Adreno Profiler has two different modes for discovering problems in your application

Scrubber Mode Provides detailed information regarding a specific call trace

Grapher Mode Provides real time metrics gathered directly from the device

| 22

Scrubber Mode

Scrubber allows you to capture an entire call trace and inspect individual calls among other features

Heat graph mode Visualize exactly which calls are the most expensive

Overdraw visualization Binning configurations Mipmap usage Real time shader overrides

Override shaders on PC and on target to visualize shader changes and see their impact on performance

Inspect alpha, color, and depth channels Platform specific optimizations generated

from your call trace And much more

| 23

Grapher Mode

Adreno Profiler can plot real time metrics captured from the device

FPS GPR usage CPU statistics And much more

Apply overrides real time Send overrides to the device to

experiment where your bottleneck might be

Combined with the Grapher, figure out if your assumptions are correct

| 24

ValidationDecide if Your Discovery Is Worth Optimizing

| 25

Validation

Finding the problem is half the battle

Adreno Profiler can help you understand how much you gain by optimizing a problem

Whats the point in optimizing your graphics pipeline if youre CPU bound? Overrides: Very powerful validation method; disable or enable features rapidly

on target Combining overrides with the Grapher: Gives you a quick idea of the gains

you may see from optimizing or removing a feature from your application

Conclusion

Adreno Profiler provides a fast way to profile your 3D applications on Qualcomm chipsets

Developers can discover where the problems are and validate that the problem is worth fixing
