This patch follows from a conversation in CQM/CMT's last series about speeding up the context switch for cgroup events: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9478617/ This is a low-hanging fruit optimization. It replaces the iteration over the "pmus" list in cgroup switch by an iteration over a new list that contains only cpuctxs with at least one cgroup event. This is necessary because the number of pmus have increased over the years e.g modern x86 server systems have well above 50 pmus. The iteration over the full pmu list is unneccessary and can be costly in heavy cache contention scenarios. Below are some instrumentation measurements with 10, 50 and 90 percentiles of the total cost of context switch before and after this optimization for a simple array read/write microbenchark. Contention Level Nr events Before (us) After (us) Median L2 L3 types (10%, 50%, 90%) (10%, 50%, 90% Speedup -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Low Low 1 (1.72, 2.42, 5.85) (1.35, 1.64, 5.46) 29% High Low 1 (2.08, 4.56, 19.8) (1720, 2.20, 13.7) 51% High High 1 (2.86, 10.4, 12.7) (2.54, 4.32, 12.1) 58% Low Low 2 (1.98, 3.20, 6.89) (1.68, 2.41, 8.89) 24% High Low 2 (2.48, 5.28, 22.4) (2150, 3.69, 14.6) 30% High High 2 (3.32, 8.09, 13.9) (2.80, 5.15, 13.7) 36% where: 1 event type = cycles 2 event types = cycles,intel_cqm/llc_occupancy/ Contention L2 Low: workset < L2 cache size. High: " >> L2 " " . Contention L3 Low: workset of task on all sockets < L3 cache size. High: " " " " " " >> L3 " " . Median Speedup is (50%ile Before - 50%ile After) / 50%ile Before Unsurprisingly, the benefits of this optimization decrease with the number of cpuctxs with a cgroup events, yet, is never detrimental.
