Would it be possible for you to pull these patches into a v5.10 branch
in your linux-rpi repo [1]?

Here you are:

https://github.com/marckleinebudde/linux-rpi/tree/v5.10-rpi/backport-performance-improvements

I've included the UINC performance enhancements, too. The branch is compiled
tested only, though. I'll send a pull request to the rpi kernel after I've
testing feedback from you.

Drew, Patrick, have you tested this branch? If so I'll send a pull
request to the raspi kernel.

not yet. Thanks for reminding me. I'll start a native build on a pi0w asap.

Is there any test application or stress test that I should run?

No, not any particular, do your normal (stress) testing.

Following up on this.

Do I have to change my test?

Hi Marc,

I changed my test to 1 hour and removed the sleep statement.
Still no measurable difference for performance and no CRC Errors with
both kernels.

Apparently the test is hard on the CPU, I have two pytest processes
listed in htop one with 80%CPU and one with 60% CPU, approx 30% ram
usage of 512MB. I have no clue how it reaches the CPU values, there
should be only one CPU on the pi0w.

I'll switch boards to a pi3b and test again with these settings.

Best Regards,
Patrick
