Subject: [linus:master] [sched/fair] fb1050ac8e: stress-ng.sleep.ops_per_sec 29.9% regression
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 09:53:05 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <202611060925.fb5500b1-lkp@intel.com> (raw)
Hello,
kernel test robot noticed a 29.9% regression of stress-ng.sleep.ops_per_sec on:
commit: fb1050ac8e40aaa014291b5b53612d27890c2b09 ("sched/fair: Change the default cgroup_mode to concur")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
testcase: stress-ng
config: x86_64-rhel-9.4
compiler: gcc-14
test machine: 224 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8480CTDX (Sapphire Rapids) with 256G memory
parameters:
nr_threads: 100%
testtime: 60s
test: sleep
cpufreq_governor: performance
In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| testcase: change | netperf: netperf.Throughput_Mbps -15.9% regression |
| test machine | 192 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) 6740E CPU @ 2.4GHz (Sierra Forest) with 256G memory |
| test parameters | cluster=cs-localhost |
| | cpufreq_governor=performance |
| | ip=ipv4 |
| | nr_threads=200% |
| | runtime=300s |
| | test=TCP_STREAM |
+------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
If you fix the issue in a separate patch/commit (i.e. not just a new version of
the same patch/commit), kindly add following tags
