Mike, PeterZ,
Finally got sometime to get back to this and provide some data backing up my patch under discussion. Here are my test results:
System is a two socket quad-core NHM-EP with SMT enabled and the workload is specjbb2005.
Warehouses Throughput tip tip+proposed-fix 1 35142 35027 2 73563 75977 3 105806 109836 4 133421 142490 5 152151 168888 6 164936 195392 7 184763 208155 8 192419 223846
PeterZ, I think the above clearly shows that we have a problem with the current -tip code. Please consider the proposed patch (which can be found at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127007936408754&w=2)
Mike, with the above data, can I have your Ack for the patch?
thanks, suresh
