I try to recreate this on one of my Intel machines (Xeon CPU E5-2650 v2
@ 2.60GHz) w/ 16 logical cpus. We haven't seen anything near a 20%
performance degradation for hackbench when we were running our hackbench
tests on 5/6 core arm machines as well as on a IVB-EP (2*10*2) Intel
machine.
So I cloned the repo:
# git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wfg
/lkp-tests.git lkp-tests
and ran the hackbench example:
root # lkp install $LKP_SRC/jobs/hackbench.yaml
root # lkp split-job $LKP_SRC/jobs/hackbench.yaml
root # lkp run ./hackbench-50%-threads-socket.yaml
2015-10-12 19:27:20 /usr/bin/hackbench -g 8 --threads -l 60000
Running in threaded mode with 8 groups using 40 file descriptors each
(== 320 tasks)
Each sender will pass 60000 messages of 100 bytes
...
wait for background monitors: perf-profile uptime proc-vmstat proc-stat
meminfo slabinfo interrupts softirqs diskstats cpuidle turbostat sched_debug
root # lkp result hackbench
/result/hackbench/50%-threads-socket-50/$MACHINE/ubuntu/defconfig/gcc-4.8/3.16.0-50-generic/0/
But I can't get any statistics out of it?
root # lkp stat hackbench
runs sum average stddev% case
Thanks for your help in advance!
