Below table captures the experiments done by Zhangfei Gao and Shameer to measure the boottime impact with various values of non-sleeping per phase counts, with HZ_250 and preemption enabled: +──────────────────────────+────────────────+ | SRCU_MAX_NODELAY_PHASE | Boot time (s) | +──────────────────────────+────────────────+ | 100 | 30.053 | | 150 | 25.151 | | 200 | 20.704 | | 250 | 15.748 | | 500 | 11.401 | | 1000 | 11.443 | | 10000 | 11.258 | | 1000000 | 11.154 | +──────────────────────────+────────────────+ Analysis on the experiment results showed improved boot time with non blocking delays close to one jiffy duration. This was also seen when number of per-phase iterations were scaled to one jiffy. So, this change scales per-grace-period phase number of non-sleeping polls, such that, non-sleeping polls are done for one jiffy. In addition to this, srcu_get_delay() call in srcu_gp_end(), which is used to calculate the delay used for scheduling callbacks, is replaced with the check for expedited grace period. This is done, to schedule cbs for completed expedited grace periods immediately, which results in improved boot time seen in experiments. Testing done by Marc and Zhangfei confirms that this change recovers most of the performance degradation in boottime; for CONFIG_HZ_250 configuration, boottime improves from 3m50s to 41s on Marc's setup; and from 2m40s to ~9.7s on Zhangfei's setup. In addition to the changes to default per phase delays, this change adds 3 new kernel parameters - srcutree.srcu_max_nodelay, srcutree.srcu_max_nodelay_phase, srcutree.srcu_retry_check_delay. This allows users to configure the srcu grace period scanning delays, depending on their system configuration requirements.
