Subject: [lkp-robot] [rcu]  d34303a1ef:  unixbench.score -12.8% regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -12.8% regression of unixbench.score due to commit:


commit: d34303a1ef67e7e38e79d63d2b3aca1a12df3b37 ("rcu: Eliminate NOCBs CPU-state Kconfig options")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu.git dev.2017.05.25a

in testcase: unixbench
on test machine: 12 threads Intel(R) Atom(R) CPU 3958 @ 2.00GHz with 64G memory
with following parameters:

	runtime: 300s
	nr_task: 1
	test: spawn
	cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: UnixBench is the original BYTE UNIX benchmark suite aims to test performance of Unix-like system.
test-url: https://github.com/kdlucas/byte-unixbench



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
