Define and test CLI-based workloads

Registered by Naresh Kamboju

Come up with CLI-based workloads that are representative of the Android workloads. These are very useful for kernel developers to evaluate patches against.

Whiteboard

[nkambo June 16 2013]
workload automation results have been integrated on to big.LITTLE builds and LAVA dashboard populating those results.

All required workload automation configuration modes have been on a single zImage. which has mp1/2/3/4, iks1/2/3/4, A15_1/_2 and A7 modes.

Android build:

LAVA Dashboard :

Meta:
Headline: Come up with CLI-based workloads that are representative of the Android workloads. These are very useful for kernel developers to evaluate patches against

Acceptance Criteria:
1. The Workload Evaluation System from ARM is integrated into LAVA
2. The tests are run periodically on TC2 to look for regressions on big.LITTLE IKS and MP
3. The Android workloads have corresponding representative workloads that can run on standard Linux stack e.g. Ubuntu.

Roadmap id: CARD-209
Project : BIG_LITTLE_MP
