Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

I have a bit problem with the name 'balanced', because it uses 'min_perf_pct=100'. Currently, we set the throughput-performance profile as the default nearly everywhere. What's the benefit of switching to this profile? In the past we got feedback that there are just too much profiles, so is there any benefit why to introduce another one? The current balanced profile doesn't have better performance, but it should exhibit lower power consumption (e.g. it doesn't have 'min_perf_pct=100').

In upstream we are trying to get rid of the sched_* tuning, namely:

kernel.sched_min_granularity_ns = 2250000
kernel.sched_wakeup_granularity_ns = 15000000
kernel.sched_migration_cost_ns=50000
kernel.sched_latency_ns=6000000

Are these tuning needed?
