Hi Nick -

Sorry, just did 'opkg list-installed | grep orc' and got:

liborc-0.4-0 - 0.4.11-r0.9
liborc-test-0.4-0 - 0.4.11-r0.9

Is this the version you expect for e1xx-002?

Thanks,
Sean

I believe I'm using 0.4.16. It's the version packaged in the e1xx-002 official 
image.

Sean,
It looks like a couple of functions are failing from the stdout:

volk_32fc_s32f_magnitude_16i_a: fail on arch orc
volk_32fc_x2_multiply_32fc_a: fail on arch orc

These are both the Orc implementations of the functions, which seem to work 
fine on my Intel processors. I don't have access to an OSX box or an E100, so I 
can't really test this out. The files you sent me don't (appear to) tell me 
what the real problem is.

We'll need some other brave soul out there who can dig into these issues on the 
platforms for us.

Those are functions I wrote, so they're my problem. =) I'll hack on it this 
week. What's strange is I absolutely validated them on Orc before committing 
them... Sean, what version of Orc are you running on your E100?

--n


Thanks,
Tom

I built Tom's safe_align branch on E100 and ran volk_profile. It segfaulted on

Sean

Really interesting that it's the same block. Hopefully, it's a single, simple 
fix. I'll look into it when you can get me the stack trace.

Thanks for reporting!
Tom

Thanks for the inputs!

We are interested in determining the best architecture at instantation
time. What would be the best strategy? We though about running the
same operations several times for each architecture, measure the
results and use the fastest one for the processing blocks. Would this
be the right approach?

Carles,

Run volk_profile. It does exactly what you said, and writes the results to 
~/.volk/volk_config. Volk reads this file when it is involked (sorry) to 
determine which particular function to execute. So all you do is run 
volk_profile once on any given machine, and it's optimized.

Carles,
This is discussed on the webpage:
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/volk

We'll be updating this as things progress with Volk, but the profiler info is 
there already.

Tom
