![]() Chris Mason reported a performance regression on big iron. Reports of this kind were usually reported as part of a micro benchmark but Chris' test did mimic his real workload. This makes it a real regression. The root cause is rcuref_get() which is invoked during each futex operation. If all threads of an application do this simultaneously then it leads to cache line bouncing and the performance drops. Disable FUTEX_PRIVATE_HASH entirely for this cycle. The performance regression will be addressed in the following cycle enabling the option again.

Linux kernel
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs
or
make pdfdocs
. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
