wasm-coremark

CoreMark 1.0 ported to WebAssembly.

CoreMark is a simple, yet sophisticated benchmark that is designed specifically to test the functionality of a processor core. Running CoreMark produces a single-number score allowing users to make quick comparisons between processors.

Builds

  • coremark.wasm - WASI app
  • coremark-minimal.wasm - Simple wasm module with minimal runtime dependencies
  • coremark-emcc.* - Emscripten build

Running WASI app

You can open it with your browser.

Use any WASI-compatible runtime to run it directly:

# Wasm3 wasm3 coremark.wasm # kanaka/wac wax coremark.wasm # wasmtime wasmtime coremark.wasm # WAVM wavm run coremark.wasm # Wasmer wasmer run --singlepass coremark.wasm wasmer run --cranelift coremark.wasm wasmer run --llvm coremark.wasm # Wasmer-JS (V8) wasmer-js run coremark.wasm # Wasmer-JS (V8 interpreter) node --wasm-interpret-all $(which wasmer-js) run coremark.wasm 

Running Emscripten version

You can open it with your browser.

Run a local copy:

python3 -m http.server 8000 # visit http://localhost:8000/coremark-emcc.html 

Using Node.js:

node coremark-emcc.js 

Running minimal version

You can open it with your browser.

Here are some examples of how to load and execute it using different engines:

To run with any wasm runtime:

  1. You need to provide an u64 env.clock_ms() function, which should return current time in milliseconds.
  2. Call f32 run() function. It should take 12..20 seconds to execute and return a CoreMark result.

Build instructions

git clone https://github.com/eembc/coremark.git cd coremark # WASI build make compile PORT_DIR=simple CC=wasicc PORT_CFLAGS="-O3" EXE=.wasm # Emscripten build make compile PORT_DIR=simple CC=emcc PORT_CFLAGS="-O3" EXE=-emcc.html # Native 32-bit build, for comparison: make compile PORT_DIR=simple PORT_CFLAGS="-O3" XCFLAGS="-m32" EXE=.elf 

minimal build is more complex, and requires modification of core_main.c.
