性能工具之stress工具使用教程（带源码说明）

stress是一个在linux下的压力测试小工具。

我看到有些人用这个工具来描述一些资源耗尽的场景，也有人用它来做混沌测试中。请使用者要注意，这个工具并不是模拟业务问题的，是模拟系统级问题的。所以用它来模拟的时候，和业务真实场景差别还是很大的。

因为在性能工作中，经常有人因为不理解工具而误用工具，所以这里我把这个工具拿出来说明一下。

（像这种我觉得没有自己思考的文章，就不设置付费了。）

安装stress

yum install -y stress

stress参数

[root@7DGroupT1 ~]# stress
`stress' imposes certain types of compute stress on your system

Usage: stress [OPTION [ARG]] ...
 -?, --help         show this help statement
     --version      show version statement
 -v, --verbose      be verbose
 -q, --quiet        be quiet
 -n, --dry-run      show what would have been done
 -t, --timeout N    timeout after N seconds
     --backoff N    wait factor of N microseconds before work starts
 -c, --cpu N        spawn N workers spinning on sqrt()
 -i, --io N         spawn N workers spinning on sync()
 -m, --vm N         spawn N workers spinning on malloc()/free()
     --vm-bytes B   malloc B bytes per vm worker (default is 256MB)
     --vm-stride B  touch a byte every B bytes (default is 4096)
     --vm-hang N    sleep N secs before free (default none, 0 is inf)
     --vm-keep      redirty memory instead of freeing and reallocating
 -d, --hdd N        spawn N workers spinning on write()/unlink()
     --hdd-bytes B  write B bytes per hdd worker (default is 1GB)

Example: stress --cpu 8 --io 4 --vm 2 --vm-bytes 128M --timeout 10s

Note: Numbers may be suffixed with s,m,h,d,y (time) or B,K,M,G (size).
[root@7DGroupT1 ~]#

参数可以说非常简单了。大概看一眼就可以知道，它可以模拟CPU、IO、内存、磁盘这些常见又重要的资源消耗。

下面就一一来看一下。

模拟CPU

[root@7DGroupT1 ~]# stress -c 4 -t 100

top - 10:48:11 up 63 days, 23:57,  2 users,  load average: 0.67, 1.41, 4.21
Tasks: 122 total,   5 running, 117 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie

%Cpu3  :100.0 us,  0.0 sy,  0.0 ni,  0.0 id,  0.0 wa,  0.0 hi,  0.0 si,  0.0 st
KiB Mem :  8010528 total,  5550792 free,  1866688 used,   593048 buff/cache
KiB Swap:        0 total,        0 free,        0 used.  5762564 avail Mem

模拟CPU的参数很简洁。打印一下栈看一下：

[root@s6 ~]# pstack 29253#0  0x00007f123634761b in random () from /usr/lib64/libc.so.6#1  0x00007f1236347b39 in rand () from /usr/lib64/libc.so.6#2  0x0000557e9ea32dbd in hogcpu ()#3  0x0000557e9ea3180a in main ()[root@s6 ~]

其实代码很简单，就是一个hogcpu函数。源码是这样的：

inthogcpu (void){  while (1)    sqrt (rand ());
  return 0;}

是不是看了之后觉得自己都能写一个了？不就是一个while吗？

从上面的数据来看，确实产生了很大的page faults，这也是模拟内存消耗的过程中必然会出现的现象。之前我也强调过，看内存够不够，就是要看这个faluts。

在Stress中，怎么模拟的内存呢。来看一下。

inthogvm (long long bytes, long long stride, long long hang, int keep){  long long i;  char *ptr = 0;  char c;  int do_malloc = 1;
  while (1)    {      if (do_malloc)        {          dbg (stdout, "allocating %lli bytes ...\n", bytes);          if (!(ptr = (char *) malloc (bytes * sizeof (char))))            {              err (stderr, "hogvm malloc failed: %s\n", strerror (errno));              return 1;            }          if (keep)            do_malloc = 0;        }
      dbg (stdout, "touching bytes in strides of %lli bytes ...\n", stride);      for (i = 0; i < bytes; i += stride)        ptr[i] = 'Z';           /* Ensure that COW happens.  */
      if (hang == 0)        {          dbg (stdout, "sleeping forever with allocated memory\n");          while (1)            sleep (1024);        }      else if (hang > 0)        {          dbg (stdout, "sleeping for %llis with allocated memory\n", hang);          sleep (hang);        }
      for (i = 0; i < bytes; i += stride)        {          c = ptr[i];          if (c != 'Z')            {              err (stderr, "memory corruption at: %p\n", ptr + i);              return 1;            }        }
      if (do_malloc)        {          free (ptr);          dbg (stdout, "freed %lli bytes\n", bytes);        }    }
  return 0;}

就是一个死循环加上一个内存malloc。

模拟磁盘，看起来效果也是非常不错的哦。来翻一下源码。

inthoghdd (long long bytes){  long long i, j;  int fd;  int chunk = (1024 * 1024) - 1;        /* Minimize slow writing.  */  char buff[chunk];
  /* Initialize buffer with some random ASCII data.  */  dbg (stdout, "seeding %d byte buffer with random data\n", chunk);  for (i = 0; i < chunk - 1; i++)    {      j = rand ();      j = (j < 0) ? -j : j;      j %= 95;      j += 32;      buff[i] = j;    }  buff[i] = '\n';
  while (1)    {      char name[] = "./stress.XXXXXX";
      if ((fd = mkstemp (name)) == -1)        {          err (stderr, "mkstemp failed: %s\n", strerror (errno));          return 1;        }
      dbg (stdout, "opened %s for writing %lli bytes\n", name, bytes);
      dbg (stdout, "unlinking %s\n", name);      if (unlink (name) == -1)        {          err (stderr, "unlink of %s failed: %s\n", name, strerror (errno));          return 1;        }
      dbg (stdout, "fast writing to %s\n", name);      for (j = 0; bytes == 0 || j + chunk < bytes; j += chunk)        {          if (write (fd, buff, chunk) == -1)            {              err (stderr, "write failed: %s\n", strerror (errno));              return 1;            }        }
      dbg (stdout, "slow writing to %s\n", name);      for (; bytes == 0 || j < bytes - 1; j++)        {          if (write (fd, &buff[j % chunk], 1) == -1)            {              err (stderr, "write failed: %s\n", strerror (errno));              return 1;            }        }      if (write (fd, "\n", 1) == -1)        {          err (stderr, "write failed: %s\n", strerror (errno));          return 1;        }      ++j;
      dbg (stdout, "closing %s after %lli bytes\n", name, j);      close (fd);    }
  return 0;}

死循环加上for循环不断的调用write。这个调用，就是不停地做写的动作。这个和我们在上面看到的监控数据也是一致的。

总结一下，通过这些源码说明，请你在使用的时候，要注意一下，像这样的工具，如果说只是为了单纯地消耗系统级的资源，然后观察应用在较少的可用资源下的表现如何，这样的工具是可以用的。

但是如果是想要模拟你的业务层出现的问题，那我劝你还是别用这样的工具了。
