Subject: [regression 5.4.97 → 5.10.24]: raid6 avx2x4 speed drops from 18429 MB/s to 6155 MB/s
Dear Linux folks,
On an two socket AMD EPYC 7601, we noticed a decrease in raid6 avx2x4
speed shown at the beginning of the boot.
5.4.95 5.10.24
----------------------------------------------
raid6: avx2x4 gen() 18429 MB/s 6155 MB/s
raid6: avx2x4 xor() 6644 MB/s 4274 MB/s
raid6: avx2x2 gen() 17894 MB/s 18744 MB/s
raid6: avx2x2 xor() 11642 MB/s 11950 MB/s
raid6: avx2x1 gen() 13992 MB/s 17112 MB/s
raid6: avx2x1 xor() 10855 MB/s 11143 MB/s
We are able to reproduce this with different models: Supermicro
AS-2023US-TR4/H11DSU-iN and Dell PowerEdge R7425 (with different
microcode versions).
Can you reproduce this on your systems?
Bisecting is going to be hard, so the systems are in production and also
take a while to boot. (Maybe kexec would help here.)
Kind regards,
Paul
