I got the feedback per mail that this will in fact be performance tested by IBM - thanks! OTOH there is still some uncertainty which benchmark/setup can be used to do so.
To let us move on with this together I prepared a PPA, on that you can set up and validate your tests. Please share when you are ready and the PPA was verified (vs what you have in Bionic right now). This should include some visible perf improvement that we can later on use to call it verified. Once that is confirmed we can move it to become the actual SRU into Bionic (where you would do the last final verification then, so don't throw away the test setup after the PPA test). The test PPA is available at: https://launchpad.net/~paelzer/+archive/ubuntu/bug-1781526-ppc64-qemu-alignment Status: Incomplete until a test setup is established. ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Won't Fix => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1781526 Title: Ubuntu18.04 - qemu patch to align memory to allow 2MB THP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/1781526/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
