Subject: [lkp-robot] [sched/fair] 4c77b18cf8: hackbench.throughput -14.4%
regression
Greeting,
FYI, we noticed a -14.4% regression of hackbench.throughput due to commit:
commit: 4c77b18cf8b7ab37c7d5737b4609010d2ceec5f0 ("sched/fair: Make select_idle_cpu() more aggressive")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master
in testcase: hackbench
on test machine: 48 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2697 v2 @ 2.70GHz with 64G memory
with following parameters:
nr_threads: 50%
mode: process
ipc: pipe
cpufreq_governor: performance
test-description: Hackbench is both a benchmark and a stress test for the Linux kernel scheduler.
test-url: https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/sched/cfs-scheduler/hackbench.c
In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:
