[Add Steve Ellcey, thanks for testing on ThunderX] Lmbench-3.0-a9 testing is performed on ThunderX machine to check that ILP32 series does not add performance regressions for LP64. Test summary is in the table below. Our measurements doesn't show significant performance regression of LP64 if ILP32 code is merged, both enabled or disabled. ILP32 enabled ILP32 disabled Standard Kernel null syscall 0.1066 0.1121 0.1121 95.09% 100.00% stat 1.3947 1.3814 1.3864 100.60% 99.64% fstat 0.4459 0.4344 0.4524 98.56% 96.02% open/close 4.0606 4.0411 4.0453 100.38% 99.90% read 0.4819 0.5014 0.5014 96.11% 100.00% Tested with linux 4.8 because 4.9-rc1 is not fixed yet for ThunderX.
