commitf959325e6aupstream. WQ_UNBOUND causes significant scheduler latency on ARM64/Android. This is problematic for latency sensitive workloads, like I/O post-processing. Removing WQ_UNBOUND gives a 96% reduction in fsverity workqueue related scheduler latency and improves app cold startup times by ~30ms. WQ_UNBOUND was also removed from the dm-verity workqueue for the same reason [1]. This code was tested by running Android app startup benchmarks and measuring how long the fsverity workqueue spent in the runnable state. Before Total workqueue scheduler latency: 553800us After Total workqueue scheduler latency: 18962us [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230202012348.885402-1-nhuck@google.com/ Signed-off-by: Nathan Huckleberry <nhuck@google.com> Fixes:8a1d0f9cac("fs-verity: add data verification hooks for ->readpages()") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230310193325.620493-1-nhuck@google.com Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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 Restructured Text 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.
