Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -2.5% regression of will-it-scale.per_process_ops due to 
commit:


commit: af7ec13833619e17f03aa73a785a2f871da6d66b ("bpf: Add bpf_skc_to_tcp6_sock() 
helper")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

One of previous emails claims that
commit: 492e639f0c222784e2e0f121966375f641c61b15 ("bpf: Add bpf_seq_printf and bpf_seq_write helpers") is reponsible for 2.5% improvement for will-it-scale.per_process_ops, which I believe is false.

This commit should not cause regression.

Probably the variation of performance is caused by test environment which you may want to investigate further to reduce false alarming.
Thanks!

test-description: Will It Scale takes a testcase and runs it from 1 through to 
n parallel copies to see if the testcase will scale. It builds both a process 
and threads based test in order to see any differences between the two.
