By default, coccicheck utilizes all available threads to implement parallelisation. However, when all available threads are used, a decrease in performance is noted. The elapsed time is minimum when at most one thread per core is used. For example, on benchmarking the semantic patch kfree.cocci for usb/serial using hyperfine, the outputs obtained for J=5 and J=2 are 1.32 and 1.90 times faster than those for J=10 and J=9 respectively for two separate runs. For the larger drivers/staging directory, minimium elapsed time is obtained for J=3 which is 1.86 times faster than that for J=12. The optimal J value does not exceed 6 in any of the test runs. The benchmarks are run on a machine with 6 cores, with 2 threads per core, i.e, 12 hyperthreads in all. To improve performance, modify coccicheck to use at most only one thread per core by default.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
