[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 09/14] qdist: add module to represent frequency d


From: Emilio G. Cota
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 09/14] qdist: add module to represent frequency distributions of data
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 23:33:12 -0400

Sometimes it is useful to have a quick histogram to represent a certain
distribution -- for example, when investigating a performance regression
in a hash table due to inadequate hashing.

The appended allows us to easily represent a distribution using Unicode
characters. Further, the data structure keeping track of the distribution
is so simple that obtaining its values for off-line processing is trivial.

Example, taking the last 10 commits to QEMU:

 Characters in commit title  Count
-----------------------------------
                         39      1
                         48      1
                         53      1
                         54      2
                         57      1
                         61      1
                         67      1
                         78      1
                         80      1
qdist_init(&dist);
qdist_inc(&dist, 39);
[...]
qdist_inc(&dist, 80);

char *str = qdist_pr(&dist, 9, QDIST_PR_LABELS);
// -> [39.0,43.6)▂▂ █▂ ▂ ▄[75.4,80.0]
g_free(str);

char *str = qdist_pr(&dist, 4, QDIST_PR_LABELS);
// -> [39.0,49.2)▁█▁▁[69.8,80.0]
g_free(str);
