Hi Mimi,

      Do you have time to take a look at this? we noticed a 3.7%
regression of boot-time.dhcp and a 84.2% regression of
stress-ng.icache.ops_per_sec. Thanks.

Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a 3.7% regression of boot-time.dhcp due to commit:


commit: 8eb613c0b8f19627ba1846dcf78bb2c85edbe8dd ("ima: verify mprotect change is 
consistent with mmap policy")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

in testcase: stress-ng
on test machine: 96 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6252 CPU @ 2.10GHz with 192G 
memory
with following parameters:

        nr_threads: 100%
        disk: 1HDD
        testtime: 30s
        class: cpu-cache
        cpufreq_governor: performance
        ucode: 0x500002c

Does the following change resolve it?

diff --git a/security/integrity/ima/ima_main.c

Thanks. I test the change, it can resolve the regression.
