A ~10% regression has been reported for UnixBench's execl throughput test by Aaron Lu and Ye Xiaolong: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/30/765 That test is pretty simple, it does a "recursive" execve() syscall on the same binary. Starting from the syscall, this sequence is possible: do_execve() do_execveat_common() __do_execve_file() sched_exec() select_task_rq_fair() <==| Task already enqueued find_idlest_cpu() find_idlest_group() capacity_spare_wake() <==| Functions not called from cpu_util_wake() | the wakeup path which means we can end up calling cpu_util_wake() not only from the "wakeup path", as its name would suggest. Indeed, the task doing an execve() syscall is already enqueued on the CPU we want to get the cpu_util_wake() for. The estimated utilization for a CPU computed in cpu_util_wake() was written under the assumption that function can be called only from the wakeup path. If instead the task is already enqueued, we end up with a utilization which does not remove the current task's contribution from the estimated utilization of the CPU. This will wrongly assume a reduced spare capacity on the current CPU and increase the chances to migrate the task on execve. The regression is tracked down to: commit |
