Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -11.7% regression of aim7.jobs-per-min due to commit:


commit: c8eaeac7b734347c3afba7008b7af62f37b9c140 ("btrfs: reserve
delalloc metadata differently")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

in testcase: aim7
on test machine: 40 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz with 384G memory
with following parameters:

disk: 4BRD_12G
md: RAID0
fs: btrfs
test: disk_rr
load: 1500
cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: AIM7 is a traditional UNIX system level benchmark
suite which is used to test and measure the performance of multiuser
system.

Here's another regression, do you have time to take a look at this?
Ping
Ping again ...

Finally got time to look at this but I can't get the reproducer to work

Hi Josef,

I tried the latest lkp-tests, and didn't have the problem. Could you please update the lkp-tests repo and run "lkp install" again?

Thanks,
Rong Chen



I can't even figure out from the job file or anything how I'm supposed to run
AIM7 itself. This is on a Fedora 30 box, so it's relatively recent. Thanks,

Josef
