Hello,
normally we won't report performance results if we suspect it is caused by
alignment problems.
since this patch touches the code related with alignment:
- struct work_struct reorder_work;
- spinlock_t ____cacheline_aligned lock;
we still make out below report FYI what's the possible performance impact.
kernel test robot noticed a 3.1% regression of unixbench.throughput on:
commit: 71203f68c7749609d7fc8ae6ad054bdedeb24f91 ("padata: Fix pd UAF once and for all")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master
[test failed on linux-next/master 1b152eeca84a02bdb648f16b82ef3394007a9dcf]
testcase: unixbench
config: x86_64-rhel-9.4
compiler: gcc-12
test machine: 64 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6346 CPU @ 3.10GHz (Ice Lake) with 256G memory
parameters:
runtime: 300s
nr_task: 100%
test: fsbuffer-w
cpufreq_governor: performance
In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:
+------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| testcase: change | will-it-scale: will-it-scale.per_thread_ops 1.1% improvement |
| test machine | 104 threads 2 sockets (Skylake) with 192G memory |
| test parameters | cpufreq_governor=performance |
| | mode=thread |
| | nr_task=100% |
| | test=pwrite1 |
