Re: 2.6.24-rc8-rt1: Strange latencies on mpc5200 powerpc - RCU issue?

m booted from flash. Neither I could produce high latencies on nfs booted system. If my non-rt workload doesn't do heavy filesystem/network accesses. i.E. running only hackbench. Hence we were wondering if the problem is caused by rcu's in network layer or nfs implementation. regards Luotao

atencies independently from the rcu settings. I didn't spend a lot of time playing around with the GEN_BD and dynamic clock. All I can say is that disabling them also cause high latency. ;-) The average results don't differ significantly in my test runs. cheers Luotao Fu -- Dipl.-Ing.

pose the unusual results are caused by network/Filesystemaccess. However I have no idea what could be the reason for the "hole"s in the trace. Looks almost like the cpu is doing nothing. As I don't have a trace on other architecture at hand at the moment. I can't say for 100 procent

in a while 1 loop and a "ping -f" from a host machine. I run the test for about 3 hours and could not push the latency to higher than 220 us. (The latency tracer is also turned on in kernel). Could you please send me your kernelconfig privately? cheers Luotao Fu -- Dipl.-Ing. Lu

and make latency trace. (tested with -b switch in cyclictest). Please comment. I made my patch against the -rt2 tree since the dummy call early_printk() in -rt3 conflicts with our implementation of a functional early_printk(). It should also work with -rt3 though. cheers Luotao Fu -- Dipl.-Ing

_enabled is used in the tracer at all. Could you give me some hints on this one? cheers Luotao Fu -- Dipl.-Ing. Luotao Fu | Phone: +49-5121-206917-3 Pengutronix - Linux Solutions for Science and Industry Entwicklungszentrum Nord http://www.pengutronix.de signature.asc Description: Digital signature
