Subject: [lkp-robot] [sched/fair]  90001d67be:  netperf.Throughput_tps -16.2%
 regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -16.2% regression of netperf.Throughput_tps due to commit:


commit: 90001d67be2fa2acbe3510d1f64fa6533efa30ef ("sched/fair: Fix wake_affine() for !NUMA_BALANCING")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

in testcase: netperf
on test machine: 8 threads Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz with 8G memory
with following parameters:

	ip: ipv4
	runtime: 300s
	nr_threads: 200%
	cluster: cs-localhost
	test: TCP_RR
	cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: Netperf is a benchmark that can be use to measure various aspect of networking performance.
test-url: http://www.netperf.org/netperf/



Details are as below:

To reproduce:

        git clone https://github.com/01org/lkp-tests.git
        cd lkp-tests
        bin/lkp install job.yaml  # job file is attached in this email
        bin/lkp run     job.yaml
