[PATCH 0/2] Backport uclamp static key to 5.4.y stable
From: Qais Yousef
Date: Fri Aug 28 2020 - 08:56:39 EST
Hi Greg/Sasha
The following 2 patches are backports of
46609ce22703: ("sched/uclamp: Protect uclamp fast path code with static key")
e65855a52b47: ("sched/uclamp: Fix a deadlock when enabling uclamp static key")
into 5.4.y stable tree. The conflict was trivial and due to:
1. uclamp_rq_util_with() was renamed from util_util_with()
2. 2 local variables were converted to unsigned long from unsigned int.
I did do compile test on aarch64 and x86_64 and both looked fine. Beside I ran
a quick and short mmtest to verify the functionality and got the following
results which is inline with what's expected.
5.4.y 5.4.y-static-keys
Hmean send-64 188.46 ( 0.00%) 189.95 * 0.79%*
Hmean send-128 375.65 ( 0.00%) 379.75 * 1.09%*
7.32% -0.33% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] try_to_wake_up
0.58% -0.55% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] deactivate_task
0.50% -0.45% [kernel.kallsyms] [k] activate_task
That said, it's Friday afternoon and I am off next week. If I did something
stupid and didn't find me, please accept my apologies in advance and will fix
it as soon as I am back online.
Thanks
