Hello,
kernel test robot noticed a -14.0% regression of phoronix-test-suite.iozone.1MB.512MB.WritePerformance.mb_s on:
commit: 9aac777aaf9459786bc8463e6cbfc7e7e1abd1f9 ("filemap: Convert generic_perform_write() to support large folios")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
testcase: phoronix-test-suite
test machine: 96 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6252 CPU @ 2.10GHz (Cascade Lake) with 512G memory
parameters:
test: iozone-1.9.6
option_a: 1MB
option_b: 512MB
option_c: Write Performance
