Hi Linus,
We noticed that commit 1e3ad78334a6 caused performance fluctuations in
various micro benchmarks. The perf stat metrics related with branch
instructions do have noticeable changes, which may be an expected
result of this commit. We are sending this report to provide these data
and hope it can be helpful for the awareness of overall impact or any
further investigation. Thanks.
kernel test robot noticed a 1.4% improvement of will-it-scale.per_process_ops on:

Thanks, these are significant regressions.
Since this is on Skylake (with IBRS enabled, presumably) I'd expect that
these regressions are fixed by my "Only harden syscalls when needed"
patch. I'm planning on posting a new version of that tomorrow, but v3
[*] should be good enough to fix it. Could you run these tests on the
same Skylake system with my patch added?
Also it would be helpful to see the same tests on Cascade/Ice Lake, or
some other system for which the 'spectre_v2' sysfs vulnerabilities file
shows "BHI: SW loop". On such a system it shouldn't matter whether my
patch is added as it won't disable Linus' syscall change. But it would
be very helpful to see the performance impact of that combination.

First we need to clarify that by running this specific will-it-scale
futex4 benchmark on a Skylake machine, we observed a +1.4% performance
improvement, not a regression.

The v3 patch [*] cannot be applied on commit 1e3ad78334a6. Seems the
code base has changed a lot, so we are not able to directly compare
1e3ad78334a6 and 1e3ad78334a6+v3_patch.
The patch is good to apply on v6.9-rc4, so we tested v6.9-rc4 and
v6.9-rc4+v3_patch. Here are the test results for your reference:

BTW, we did observe some regressions by running other benchmarks on
commit 1e3ad78334a6, but these regressions are on Ice Lake, not Skylake.
Please kindly contact us if you are interested in looking into them.
stress-ng.null.ops_per_sec -4.0% regression on Intel Xeon Gold 6346 (Ice Lake)
unixbench.fsbuffer.throughput -1.4% regression on Intel Xeon Gold 6346 (Ice Lake)
