Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 0/9] Add latency priority for CFS class


> This patchset restarts the work about adding a latency priority to describe
> the latency tolerance of cfs tasks.

Hi Vincent.
  
Tested the patches on the power10 machine. It is 80 core system with SMT=8. i.e
total of 640 cpus. on the large workload which mainly interacts with the
database there is minor improvement of 3-5%.

the method followed is creating a cgroup, assigning a latency nice value of -20,
-10, 0 and adding the tasks to procs of the cgroup. outside of cgroup, stress-ng
load is running and it is not set any latency value. stress-ng --cpu=768 -l 50

with microbenchmarks, hackbench the values are more or less the same. for large
process pool of 60, there is 10% improvement. schbench tail latencies show
significant improvement with low and medium load upto 256 groups. only 512
groups shows a slight decline.
