Base on the off-list discussion, the community care about the
performance regression of aarch64 LP64 and aarch32 after ILP32
is merged.
Given that there is not big open issue in ILP32 in kernel part, I try
to address this concern. It is reasonable that we should run lots of
testsuite(such as LKP) to ensure there is no performance regression.
But I am not expert of this, I started from test the lmbench for
aarch64 LP64 and compare the differnce between ILP32 enabled and
without ILP32 patches.
The branch I used is ilp32-4.8 on [1], compare the result between
two commit "d3746f1 arm64:ilp32: add ARM64_ILP32 to Kconfig"(defconfig
with CONFIG_ARM64_ILP32) and "3054de8 fiz set_personality by Catalin"
(defconfig).
The result show there is no big difference. Most of the difference is
less than 5%. Only two differnce more than 10%:
1. Context switching 2p/16K 13.16%(ILP32 is bigger than No_ILP32.
smaller is better)
2. *Local* Communication bandwidths: TCP -10.77%.(ILP32 is smaller than
No_ILP32. bigger is better).
If it is make sense to community, I could continue to do more that.
Thanks
