Re: [patch] voluntary-preempt-2.6.9-rc3-mm3-T3

[Mark_H_Johnson]

>i've released the -T3 VP patch:

I ran another series of tests, this time without using threaded IRQ's. Both
/proc/sys/kernel/softirq_preemption and
/proc/sys/kernel/hardirq_preemption
were zero.

The results were somewhat similar to what I saw yesterday when both types
of
IRQ's were threaded. The number of latencies > 200 usec was higher:
  threaded IRQ's -  47
unthreaded IRQ's - 128

However, the application level overhead (as measured by latencytest)
appears to be less without threaded IRQ's than with. For example,
during the X11 stress test:

                            CPU task   samples within 0.1 msec
nominal duration:          1.16 msec     n/a
Max with threaded IRQ's:   1.38 msec     99.97%
Max with unthreaded IRQ's: 1.25 msec    100.00%

The green line in the chart is MUCH thinner in the unthreaded test
as well indicating much less overhead with unthreaded IRQ's. Please
note that in both tests, the audio IRQ was not threaded (all others
were...).

This trend continued until the disk tests were performed. In those
cases, the threaded overhead was less but I believe that is due to
the setting of the audio IRQ to be non-threaded.

The types of latency traces I saw are summarized as follows. Some
details are at the end and if anyone wants full traces, please let
me know. The numbers that follow refer to the trace numbers.

[1] rt_check_expire - hundreds of traces of _spin_lock and _spin_unlock
with the preempt count >1
00 02 78 82 87 92 101 110 126

[2] do_wait - preempt count bounces up / down many cycles
01

[3] do_IRQ - appears to be chaining of hard and soft IRQ's without any
opportunity for preemption. May also have timer tick as well. A few
different ways to start this symptom. Most traces are like one of these.
03... 37 39... 73 76 79 81 83... 86 88 89 94 96 97 99 100 102 103 106 107
109 111 114 119 122 123

[4] rt_run_flush - a VERY long trace (> 4000 samples)
38 106

[5] rcu / cache actions
74 75 77 90 95 113 124

[6] prune_icache - an interrupt causes some delays
80 91 98

[7] clear_page_tables - also seen without threaded IRQ's
92 108 112 115 ... 118 120 121 125 127

[8] avc_insert - a long delay at one step...
105

  --Mark

[1] rt_check_expire

The following is typical of this kind of trace.
