[Linuxarm] [libata] 2c76f9f255: stress-ng.copy-file.ops_per_sec -25.9% regression

Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -25.9% regression of stress-ng.copy-file.ops_per_sec due to commit:

commit: 2c76f9f255f01743b65a16b667355452a1f69b99 ("[PATCH] libata: configure max sectors properly") url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/chenxiang/libata-configure-max-sect... base: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-block.git for-next

in testcase: stress-ng on test machine: 96 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6252 CPU @ 2.10GHz with 512G memory with following parameters:

nr_threads: 10% disk: 1HDD testtime: 60s fs: f2fs class: filesystem test: copy-file cpufreq_governor: performance ucode: 0x5003006

In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:

+------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | testcase: change | stress-ng: stress-ng.readahead.ops_per_sec 71.5% improvement | | test machine | 96 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6252 CPU @ 2.10GHz with 192G memory | | test parameters | class=os | | | cpufreq_governor=performance | | | disk=1HDD | | | fs=ext4 | | | nr_threads=10% | | | test=readahead | | | testtime=60s | | | ucode=0x5003006 | +------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

If you fix the issue, kindly add following tag Reported-by: kernel test robot oliver.sang@intel.com

Details are as below: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

To reproduce:

git clone https://github.com/intel/lkp-tests.git cd lkp-tests bin/lkp install job.yaml # job file is attached in this email bin/lkp split-job --compatible job.yaml # generate the yaml file for lkp run bin/lkp run generated-yaml-file
