+# Makefile for benchmark tests.  The only useful target here is `bench`.
+
+# Adding a new function `foo`:
+# ---------------------------
+
+# - Append the function name to the bench variable
+
+# - Define foo-ITER with the number of iterations you want to run.  Keep it
+#   high enough that the overhead of clock_gettime is only a small fraction of
+#   the total run time of the test.
+
+# - Define foo-ARGLIST as a colon separated list of types of the input
+#   arguments.  Use `void` if function does not take any inputs.  Put in quotes
+#   if the input argument is a pointer, e.g.:
+
+#      malloc-ARGLIST: "void *"
+
+# - Define foo-RET as the type the function returns.  Skip if the function
+#   returns void.  One could even skip foo-ARGLIST if the function does not
+#   take any inputs AND the function returns void.
+
+
+# - Make a file called `foo-inputs` with one input value per line, an input
+#   being a comma separated list of arguments to be passed into the function.
+#   See pow-inputs for an example.
