The runqueue selection picks the previous, target, or recent runqueues if they have enough remaining capacity to enqueue the task before scanning for an idle cpu. This feature is introduced in preparation for the SELECT_BIAS_PREV scheduler feature. The following benchmarks only cover the UTIL_FITS_CAPACITY feature. Those are performed on a v6.5.5 kernel with mitigations=3Doff. The following hackbench workload on a 192 cores AMD EPYC 9654 96-Core Processor (over 2 sockets) improves the wall time from 49s to 40s (18% speedup). hackbench -g 32 -f 20 --threads --pipe -l 480000 -s 100 We can observe that the number of migrations is reduced significantly with this patch (improvement): Baseline: 117M cpu-migrations (9.355 K/sec) With patch: 47M cpu-migrations (3.977 K/sec) The task-clock utilization is increased (improvement): Baseline: 253.275 CPUs utilized With patch: 271.367 CPUs utilized The number of context-switches is increased (degradation): Baseline: 445M context-switches (35.516 K/sec) With patch: 586M context-switches (48.823 K/sec) Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/09e0f469-a3f7-62ef-75a1-e64cec2dcfc5@amd.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230725193048.124796-1-mathieu.desnoyer= s@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230810140635.75296-1-mathieu.desnoyers= @efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230810140635.75296-1-mathieu.desnoyers= @efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/f6dc1652-bc39-0b12-4b6b-29a2f9cd8484@amd= .com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230822113133.643238-1-mathieu.desnoyer= s@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230823060832.454842-1-aaron.lu@intel.c= om/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230905171105.1005672-1-mathieu.desnoye= rs@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1695704179.git.yu.c.chen@intel.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230929183350.239721-1-mathieu.desnoyer= s@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231012203626.1298944-1-mathieu.desnoye= rs@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231017221204.1535774-1-mathieu.desnoye= rs@efficios.com/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231018204511.1563390-1-mathieu.desnoye= rs@efficios.com/ Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Valentin Schneider Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Ben Segall Cc: Mel Gorman Cc: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira Cc: Vincent Guittot Cc: Juri Lelli Cc: Swapnil Sapkal Cc: Aaron Lu Cc: Chen Yu Cc: Tim Chen Cc: K Prateek Nayak Cc: Gautham R .
