Each kernel directory has a stand-alone application that can be compiled and run on a bare-metal DSP (no OS or drivers). The main test file is the *_d.c file. This file follows a common format for each kernel:
- Load all the test vectors from the *_idat.c file of the same directory.
- For each test case:
- Allocate memory for each buffer based on the parameters specified from the test vector
- Initialize buffers with data as specified from the test vector (random, static, etc.)
- Initialize function parameters
- Call the optimized version of the kernel from the c66 folder of the same directory
- Call the natural c version of the kernel from the *_cn.c file of the same directory
- Compare the results of these two versions to make sure they match
- Optionally compare the results against a static expected output_iterator
- Print test results, including performance
- Free buffers
- When all the test vectors are completed, print summary of performance and memory usage.
