Hello,
kernel test robot noticed a -1.5% regression of unixbench.throughput on:
commit: 0dd26047b0b803f7a196f0aee91d22116fdb82d3 ("fs: add tracepoints around multigrain timestamp changes")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jlayton/linux.git mgtime
testcase: unixbench
test machine: 64 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6346 CPU @ 3.10GHz (Ice Lake) with 256G memory
parameters:
runtime: 300s
nr_task: 100%
test: pipe
cpufreq_governor: performance
If you fix the issue in a separate patch/commit (i.e. not just a new version of
the same patch/commit), kindly add following tags
