Subject: [lkp] [perf powerpc] 18d1796d0b: [No primary change]
[will-it-scale] perf-stat.branch-miss-rate +7.4% regression
Reply-To: kernel test robot <xiaolong.ye@...el.com>
User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.5 6/20/10
FYI, we noticed a +7.4% regression of perf-stat.branch-miss-rate due to commit:
commit 18d1796d0b45762ec6f58c5ed2ad3f7510ffbaa9 ("perf powerpc: Don't call perf_event_disable from atomic context")
https://github.com/0day-ci/linux Jiri-Olsa/perf-powerpc-Don-t-call-perf_event_disable-from-atomic-context/20161006-203500
in testcase: will-it-scale
on test machine: 32 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 0 @ 2.70GHz with 64G memory
with following parameters:
test: poll2
cpufreq_governor: performance
Will It Scale takes a testcase and runs it from 1 through to n parallel copies to see if the testcase will scale. It builds both a process and threads based test in order to see any differences between the two.
Disclaimer:
Results have been estimated based on internal Intel analysis and are provided
for informational purposes only. Any difference in system hardware or software
design or configuration may affect actual performance.
Details are as below:
