Configuration tested.
a) Base kernel (6.7),

Which scheduling model is the baseline using?


baseline is also PREEMPT_DYNAMIC with voluntary preemption

b) patched with PREEMPT_AUTO voluntary preemption.
c) patched with PREEMPT_DYNAMIC voluntary preemption.

Workloads I tested and their %gain,
case b case c
NAS +2.7 +1.9
Hashjoin, +0 +0
XSBench +1.7 +0
Graph500, -6 +0

The Graph500 stands out. Needs some analysis.


Sure. Will do more detailed analysis and comeback on this.

Thanks
