PerformanceHintManager.Session


public static class PerformanceHintManager.Session
extends Object implements Closeable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.os.PerformanceHintManager.Session


A Session represents a group of threads with an inter-related workload such that hints for their performance should be considered as a unit. The threads in a given session should be long-lived and not created or destroyed dynamically. The work duration API can be used with periodic workloads to dynamically adjust thread performance and keep the work on schedule while optimizing the available power budget. When using the work duration API, the starting target duration should be specified while creating the session, but can later be adjusted with updateTargetWorkDuration(long). While using the work duration API, the client is be expected to call reportActualWorkDuration(long) each cycle to report the actual time taken to complete to the system. Any call in this class will change its internal data, so you must do your own thread safety to protect from racing. All timings should be in SystemClock.uptimeNanos().

Summary

Public methods

void close()

Ends the current hint session.

void reportActualWorkDuration(WorkDuration workDuration)

Reports the work duration for the last cycle of work.

void reportActualWorkDuration(long actualDurationNanos)

Reports the actual duration for the last cycle of work.

void setPreferPowerEfficiency(boolean enabled)

This tells the session that these threads can be safely scheduled to prefer power efficiency over performance.

void setThreads(int[] tids)

Set a list of threads to the performance hint session.

void updateTargetWorkDuration(long targetDurationNanos)

Updates this session's target total duration for each cycle of work.

Protected methods

void finalize()

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.

Inherited methods

Public methods

close

Added in API level 31
public void close ()

Ends the current hint session. Once called, you should not call anything else on this object.

reportActualWorkDuration

Added in API level 35
public void reportActualWorkDuration (WorkDuration workDuration)

Reports the work duration for the last cycle of work. The system will attempt to adjust the core placement of the threads within the thread group and/or the frequency of the core on which they are run to bring the actual duration close to the target duration.

Parameters
workDuration WorkDuration: the work duration of each component.
This value cannot be null.

Throws
IllegalArgumentException if the work period start timestamp or the total duration are less than or equal to zero, if either the actual CPU duration or actual GPU duration is less than zero, or if both the CPU and GPU durations are zero.

reportActualWorkDuration

Added in API level 31
public void reportActualWorkDuration (long actualDurationNanos)

Reports the actual duration for the last cycle of work. The system will attempt to adjust the core placement of the threads within the thread group and/or the frequency of the core on which they are run to bring the actual duration close to the target duration.

Parameters
actualDurationNanos long: how long the thread group took to complete its last task in nanoseconds

setPreferPowerEfficiency

Added in API level 35
public void setPreferPowerEfficiency (boolean enabled)

This tells the session that these threads can be safely scheduled to prefer power efficiency over performance.

Parameters
enabled boolean: The flag that sets whether this session uses power-efficient scheduling.

setThreads

Added in API level 34
public void setThreads (int[] tids)

Set a list of threads to the performance hint session. This operation will replace the current list of threads with the given list of threads. Note that this is not an oneway method.

Parameters
tids int: The list of threads to be associated with this session. They must be part of this app's thread group.
This value cannot be null.

Throws
IllegalArgumentException if the thread id list is empty
IllegalStateException if the hint session is not in the foreground
SecurityException if any thread id doesn't belong to the application

updateTargetWorkDuration

Added in API level 31
public void updateTargetWorkDuration (long targetDurationNanos)

Updates this session's target total duration for each cycle of work.

Parameters
targetDurationNanos long: the new desired duration in nanoseconds

Protected methods

finalize

protected void finalize ()

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. A subclass overrides the finalize method to dispose of system resources or to perform other cleanup.

The general contract of finalize is that it is invoked if and when the Java virtual machine has determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, except as a result of an action taken by the finalization of some other object or class which is ready to be finalized. The finalize method may take any action, including making this object available again to other threads; the usual purpose of finalize, however, is to perform cleanup actions before the object is irrevocably discarded. For example, the finalize method for an object that represents an input/output connection might perform explicit I/O transactions to break the connection before the object is permanently discarded.

The finalize method of class Object performs no special action; it simply returns normally. Subclasses of Object may override this definition.

The Java programming language does not guarantee which thread will invoke the finalize method for any given object. It is guaranteed, however, that the thread that invokes finalize will not be holding any user-visible synchronization locks when finalize is invoked. If an uncaught exception is thrown by the finalize method, the exception is ignored and finalization of that object terminates.

After the finalize method has been invoked for an object, no further action is taken until the Java virtual machine has again determined that there is no longer any means by which this object can be accessed by any thread that has not yet died, including possible actions by other objects or classes which are ready to be finalized, at which point the object may be discarded.

The finalize method is never invoked more than once by a Java virtual machine for any given object.

Any exception thrown by the finalize method causes the finalization of this object to be halted, but is otherwise ignored.

Throws
Throwable
