Hi Jet,
Thank you for your report.
I have some questions for your test.
1. Did you enable ftrace?
This patch added a feature for ftrace. If you disabled ftrace in
this test, my patch will not affect the system. Moreover, in my patch,
arrays for saved_cmdlines were just changed from using static global
variables to using kmalloc() on default setting. So, even if you enabled
ftrace, this patch will not induce a big problem, I think.
2. How did you test it and what does the result mean?
Please tell me the workload, how to calculate the score,
system settings, etc...
Thanks,
Yoshihiro YUNOMAE
