Re: sched : performance regression 24% between 4.4rc4 and 4.3 kernel

Show all headers | View raw

Hi all,

I have the results of bisecting:

first bad commit: [973759c80db96ed4b4c5cb85ac7d48107f801371] Merge tag
'v4.3-rc1' into sched/core, to refresh the branch

Could you please have a look at this commit why it has caused the
performance regression when running 4 stream benchmarks in parallel on
4 NUMA node server?

Please let me know if you need additional data. git bisect log is bellow.

Thanks a lot!
Jirka
