Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 0/2] sched/fair: Scan cluster before scanning LLC in
wake-up path
Hello Yicong,
We've tested the series on a dual socket Zen3 system (2 x 64C/128T).
tl;dr
- The results look good and the changes do not affect the Zen3 machine
which doesn't contain any sched domain with SD_CLUSTER flag set.
- With the latest BIOS, I don't see any regression due to the addition
of the new per CPU variables.
We had observed a regression in tbench previously when testing the
v4 of the series on the system with a slightly outdated BIOS
(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e000b124-afd4-28e1-fde2-393b0e38ce19@amd.com/)
but that doesn't seem to be the case with the latest BIOS :)
Detailed results from the standard benchmarks are reported below.

Discussed below are the results from running standard benchmarks on
a dual socket Zen3 (2 x 64C/128T) machine configured in different
NPS modes.
NPS Modes are used to logically divide single socket into
multiple NUMA region.
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
Benchmark Results:
Kernel versions:
- tip: 5.19.0 tip sched/core
- cluster: 5.19.0 tip sched/core + both the patches of the series
When we started testing, the tip was at:
commit: 5531ecffa4b9 "sched: Add update_current_exec_runtime helper"

Note: schbench displays lot of run to run variance for
low worker count. This behavior is due to the timing of
new-idle balance which is not consistent across runs.

~ Additional notes ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- schbench is know to have a noticeable run-to-run variation for lower
worker counts and any improvements or regression observed can be
safely ignored. The results are included to make sure there are
no unnecessarily large regressions as a result of task pileup.
- tbench shows slight run to run variation with larger number of
clients on both tip and patched kernel. This is expected as the machine
is overloaded at that point (equivalent of two or more tasks per CPU).
"Verification Run" shows none of these regressions are persistent.
