Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 0/2] sched/fair: Wake short task on current CPU
Hello Chenyu and Abel,
I'll leave the detailed results from testing on a dual socket Zen3 system
(2 x 64C/128T) below.
tl;dr
o Most benchmark results see small wins or are comparable to tip.
o SpecJBB Max-jOPS see a small hit but Critical-jOPS improve.
o ycsb-mongodb sees small uplift in NPS1 mode.
o Numbers for Netperf runs are pending which I'll share in the
coming week.
o Abel's suggestion on top of v5 seem promising but there are
few regressions I notice on larger workloads.
Detailed Results:
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: 6.2.0-rc6 tip sched/core
- sis_short: 6.2.0-rc6 tip sched/core + this series
When the testing started, the tip was at:
commit 4d627628d758 "cpuidle: Fix poll_idle() noinstr annotation"

o Follow wake_affine_bias() if waker's cpu and prev_cpu are on same LLC?
There are cases with Abel's suggestion where some of the larger
benchmark regresses. I wonder if wake_affine_bias() can still be
considered for short running tasks if the waker's CPU and the
prev_cpu share caches. In DeathStarBench 8C/16T case, the
services are all pinned to the CPUs of same MC domain. The
regression observed seems to arise from the missed opportunity
to distribute load among the CPUs sharing the same L3. I do not
have data for this currently but I'll update the thread with any
findings.
I'll also queue up a Redis run from mmtest to see if I can reproduce
Abel's observations on my system however I'm not sure if the
utilization will be high enough to emulate the same scenario as
Abel's prod environment. If the migrations within the same MC

The netperf results are still pending and I'll update the thread
with the same in the coming week. If you would like me to test
or gather some data for specific workload on the test system,
please do let me know.
