[PATCH RT] kernel/sched: Don't recompute cpumask weight in migrate_enable_update_cpus_allowed()
From: Waiman Long
Date: Fri Oct 11 2019 - 10:09:48 EST
At each invocation of rt_spin_unlock(), cpumask_weight() is called
via migrate_enable_update_cpus_allowed() to recompute the weight of
cpus_mask which doesn't change that often.
The following is a sample output of perf-record running the testpmd
microbenchmark on an RT kernel:
34.77% 1.65% testpmd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] rt_spin_unlock
34.32% 2.52% testpmd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] migrate_enable
21.76% 21.76% testpmd [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __bitmap_weight
By adding an extra variable to keep track of the weight of cpus_mask,
we could eliminate the frequent call to cpumask_weight() and replace
it with simple assignment.
