Normalization units
===================
A user-configurable unit by which you can choose to normalize data. Options
include:
.. list-table::
:header-rows: 1
* - Name
- Description
* - ``per_wave``
- The total value of the measured counter or metric that occurred per
kernel invocation divided by the total number of
:ref:`wavefronts <desc-wavefront>` launched in the kernel.
* - ``per_cycle``
- The total value of the measured counter or metric that occurred per
kernel invocation divided by the
:ref:`kernel cycles <kernel-cycles>`, that is, the total number of
cycles the kernel executed as measured by the
:doc:`command processor <cdna/command-processor>`.
* - ``per_kernel``
- The total value of the measured counter or metric that occurred per
kernel invocation.
* - ``per_second``
- The total value of the measured counter or metric that occurred per
kernel invocation divided by the :ref:`kernel time <kernel-time>`,
that is, the total runtime of the kernel in seconds, as measured by the
:doc:`command processor <cdna/command-processor>`.
By default, ROCm Compute Profiler uses the ``per_kernel`` normalization.
.. tip::
The best normalization may vary depending on your use case. For instance, a
``per_second`` normalization might be useful for FLOP or bandwidth
comparisons, while a ``per_wave`` normalization could be useful to see how many
(and what types) of instructions are used per wavefront. A ``per_kernel``
normalization can be useful to get the total aggregate values of metrics for
comparison between different configurations.
