BLTK(1) Battery life tool kit BLTK(1) NAME
bltk - tool kit is used to measure battery life and performance under different workloads on Linux. SYNOPSIS
bltk [-hVvaNAcCBXswiIRDPGOYZyQzxul] [-t sec] [-r results_dir] [-m {0,1}] [-U path] [-g setup] [-J pid] [-T time] [-F file] [-W app] [-L title] [-K comment] [-e app] [-E app] [-p percent] [-d percent] [-o {0,1,2}] [-q file] [-b percent] [-f command] [-k num] DESCRIPTION
The BLTK can be used with various workloads to simulate different types of laptop usage. The following workloads are currently imple- mented: Idle workload collect statistics only (mostly used to measure battery life) Developer workload simulates code development in Linux environment Reader workload simulates text reading on laptop (mostly used to measure battery life) Playback workload simulates laptop entertaining usage (produces constant average load on the system) 3d game workload simulates 3D-gaming on laptop (Unreal Tournament demo is used to create this workload) Office Activity workload simulates laptop usage for different office activities (based on OpenOffice.org office suit) When started, test collects platform/OS initial info and if it's OK prompts user to unplug AC adapter. After cable unplugged, workload started. During the workload execution test harness collects various system information (e.g. CPU load, battery drain, display state, CPU frequency, etc...). After battery completely discharged user should plug the AC cable back and boot the system. When it is done the results are available. There are several tools for result evaluation. They allow creating report file for test run, to gather results into a table for system com- parison, and to draw graphs for different purposes. Results - after the battery dies and the system booted back, the results are available. They are stored in 'bltk/<wokload_name>.results' directory (or in the directory, specified in -r option). If target directory already exist the tool will add numeric extension to its name (.001, .002 e.t.c.) The results consist of the following files (see below for detailed description): cmd In this file 'bltk' command with arguments are stored infoi<N>.log (info1.log, info2.log, ...) Here initial system info is stored. Another two files (info1.log, info2.log) contains system info after AC adapter was unplugged, and on 5% battery capacity remained. They are used to check whether any changes occurred during test execution. stat.log Statistics generated by bltk harness are stored here. One statistic line generated per 1 minute (or per number of seconds, specified in -t option). system<N> When -k 1 is used, the system information is stored under this directory. The numbers at the end of directory name have the follow- ing meanings: 0 initial system info 1 system info after AC adapter was unplugged 2 system info on 5% battery capacity remained version this file contains version information workload the file contains info about workload work_out.log err.log There are stored any error messages warning.log Contains warnings work.log Strings generated by USR1, USR2 signals from workload. String format is the same as in the 'stat.log' file. fail when test fails score Report Report.table OPTIONS
