On a 16-socket 192-core POWER8 system, a context switching benchmark with as many software threads as CPUs (so each switch will go in and out of idle), upstream can achieve a rate of about 1 million context switches per second. After this patch it goes up to 118 million. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> --- arch/powerpc/Kconfig | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
