I just realized the test we are doing is not exactly the same.
As the original report says:
        ip: ipv4
        runtime: 300s
        nr_threads: 200%
        cluster: cs-localhost
        send_size: 10K
        test: SCTP_STREAM_MANY
        cpufreq_governor: performance

Note the nr_threads: 200%, which means to start 2 times of CPU number
processes of netperf.

In our IVB i3(2 cores, 2 threads per core) case, 8 netperf processes
are started concurrently:

2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &
2016-07-27 03:48:09 netperf -4 -t SCTP_STREAM_MANY -c -C -l 300 -- -m 10K -H 127.0.0.1 &

The throughput is the average of those runs.

And I think we should be doing test on:
commit a6c2f79287 ("sctp: implement prsctp TTL policy") (the bisected one)
and
commit 826d253d57 ("sctp: add SCTP_PR_ASSOC_STATUS on sctp sockopt") (its immediate parent)
instead of Linus' master HEAD to avoid other factors.

Thanks,
Aaron
