Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] sched/fair: filter out overloaded cpus in SIS

Hello Abel,

We tested this patch on our systems.

tl;dr

- We observed some regressions in schbench with 128 workers in
  NPS4 mode.
- tbench shows regression for 32 workers in NPS2 mode and 64 workers
  in NPS2 and NPS4 mode.
- Great improvements in schbench for low worker count.
- Overall, the performance seems to be comparable to the tip.

Below are the detailed numbers for each benchmark.

Following are the results from testing on a dual socket Zen3 system
(2 x 64C/128T) in different NPS modes.

Following is the NUMA configuration for each NPS mode on the system:

NPS1: Each socket is a NUMA node.
    Total 2 NUMA nodes in the dual socket machine.

    Node 0: 0-63,   128-191
    Node 1: 64-127, 192-255

NPS2: Each socket is further logically divided into 2 NUMA regions.
    Total 4 NUMA nodes exist over 2 socket.
   
    Node 0: 0-31,   128-159
    Node 1: 32-63,  160-191
    Node 2: 64-95,  192-223
    Node 3: 96-127, 223-255

NPS4: Each socket is logically divided into 4 NUMA regions.
    Total 8 NUMA nodes exist over 2 socket.
   
    Node 0: 0-15,    128-143
    Node 1: 16-31,   144-159
    Node 2: 32-47,   160-175
    Node 3: 48-63,   176-191
    Node 4: 64-79,   192-207
    Node 5: 80-95,   208-223
    Node 6: 96-111,  223-231
    Node 7: 112-127, 232-255

Kernel versions:
- tip:      		5.18-rc1 tip sched/core
- Filter Overloaded:    5.18-rc1 tip sched/core + this patch

When we began testing, we recorded the tip at:

commit: a658353167bf "sched/fair: Revise comment about lb decision matrix"

Following are the results from the benchmark:

Note: Results marked with * are data points of concern. A rerun
for the data point has been provided on both the tip and the
patched kernel to check for any run to run variation.

- schbench shows regression for 128 workers in NPS4 mode.
  The rerun shows stable results for both tip and patched
  kernel.
- tbench shows regression for 64 workers in NPS2 and NPS4
  mode. In NPS2 mode, the tip shows some run to run variance
  however the median of 10 runs reported is lower for the
  patched kernel.
- tbench shows regression for 32 workers in NPS2 mode. The
  tip seems to report stable values here but there is a
  slight run to run variation observed in the patched kernel.

- Overall, the performance is comparable to that of the tip.
- schbench low worker count improvements has the load balancer
  coming into the picture. We still have to do deeper analysis
  to see if and how this patch is helping.

I haven't run the mmtest as a part of this testing. I've made
a note of the configs you ran the numbers for. I'll try to
get numbers for same.

Let me know if there is some additional data you would like
me to gather on the test machine.
