1). 简介
NXP iMX8系列ARM处理器是NXP近几年新发布的产品,架构均升级到了64bit的ARMv8,其中包含了iMX8,iMX8x,iMX8M Mini,iMX8M Plus等一系列处理器,其基本参数属性的对比可以参考下面来自于NXP官网的表格,而本文就从CPU核心、GPU核心、内存性能等几个方面对于iMX8系列的不同产品做一个简单对比测试供参考。需要注意的是Benchmark测试无法做到绝对完整客观,通常和软硬件系统配置以及所采用的Benchmark工具有很大的相关性,不同配置或工具可能得出不同结论,因此本文的测试只是基于本文测试环境以及所用Benchmark工具的参考数据。
本文所采用的全部测试平台均来自于Toradex iMX8 系列ARM核心板和对应载板。
2). 准备
a). Apalis iMX8QM 4GB WB IT ARM核心版配合Ioxra 载板,连接调试串口UART1(载板X22)到开发主机方便调试。
b). Colibri iMX8QXP 2GB WB IT ARM核心板配合Colibri Evaluation Board载板,连接调试串口UART1(载板X27)到开发主机方便调试。
c). Verdin iMX8M Mini Quad 2GB WB IT ARM核心板配合Verdin Development Board 载板,连接调试串口UART1(载板X66)到开发主机方便调试。
d). Verdin iMX8M Plus Quad 4GB WB IT ARM核心板配合Verdin Development Board 载板,连接调试串口UART1(载板X66)到开发主机方便调试。
3). 预设软件测试环境
a). 所有测试模块均更新为Toradex Ycoto Linux Reference Multimedia Image 5.3.0 Quarterly 版本。
b). 参考这里的说明在Linux下将所有测试模块的CPU核心工作模式设置为 ”performance”,也就是持续运行在最高主频。
-------------------------------
$ echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/
-------------------------------
4). CPU单核性能对比测试
a). 测试工具软件 nbench,测试Linux BSP自带
b). 测试方法
-------------------------------
### 进入/usr/bin目录,因为测试需要NNET.DAT这个文件
$ cd /usr/bin
### 对于Apalis iMX8QM,分别测试A72核心和A53核心
$ taskset -c 4,5 nbench && taskset -c 0-3 nbench
### 对于其他模块
$ nbench
-------------------------------
c). 测试结果
./ Apalis iMX8QM A72

9). 总结
本文从CPU、GPU、内存等几个方面简单对NXP iMX8系列嵌入式ARM处理器家族产品进行了一些benchmark测试,从结果可以看到iMX8QM各方面性能都是非常领先的;iMX8X强调功耗性能比,非常均衡;iMX8M Mini和iMX8M Plus在CPU方面基本相当,GPU则是iMX8M Plus领先巨大,同时iMX8M Plus还拥有一个神经网络算法加速的NPU核心,综合下来iMX8M Plus性能还是好于iMX8M Mini。
