[linus:master] [x86/syscall] 1e3ad78334: will-it-scale.per_process_ops 1.4% improvement

From: kernel test robot
Date: Fri Apr 19 2024 - 01:56:18 EST


Hi Linus,

We noticed that commit 1e3ad78334a6 caused performance fluctuations in
various micro benchmarks. The perf stat metrics related with branch
instructions do have noticeable changes, which may be an expected
result of this commit. We are sending this report to provide these data
and hope it can be helpful for the awareness of overall impact or any
further investigation. Thanks.

kernel test robot noticed a 1.4% improvement of will-it-scale.per_process_ops on:

commit: 1e3ad78334a69b36e107232e337f9d693dcc9df2 ("x86/syscall: Don't force use of indirect calls for system calls")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

testcase: will-it-scale
test machine: 104 threads 2 sockets (Skylake) with 192G memory
parameters:

nr_task: 16
