Subject: [lkp-robot] [sched/numa]  3fed382b46:  hackbench.throughput -9.8%
 regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -9.8% regression of hackbench.throughput due to commit:


commit: 3fed382b46baac83703130fe4cd3d9147f427fb9 ("sched/numa: Implement NUMA node level wake_affine()")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

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

	nr_threads: 50%
	mode: threads
	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


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
