John noted that commit 1151354225 ("sched/deadline: Fix 'stuck' dl_server")
unfixed the issue from commit a3a70caf79 ("sched/deadline: Fix dl_server
behaviour").
The issue in commit 1151354225 was for wakeups of the server after the
deadline; in which case you *have* to start a new period. The case for
a3a70caf79 is wakeups before the deadline.
Now, because the server is effectively running a least-laxity policy, it means
that any wakeup during the runnable phase means dl_entity_overflow() will be
true. This means we need to adjust the runtime to allow it to still run until
the existing deadline expires.
Use the revised wakeup rule for dl_defer entities.

sched_ext: Fix is_bpf_migration_disabled() false negative on non-PREEMPT_RCU
@p->scx.ddsp_dsq_id can be left set (non-SCX_DSQ_INVALID) triggering a
spurious warning in mark_direct_dispatch() when the next wakeup's
ops.select_cpu() calls scx_bpf_dsq_insert(), such as:
WARNING: kernel/sched/ext.c:1273 at scx_dsq_insert_commit+0xcd/0x140
The root cause is that ddsp_dsq_id was only cleared in dispatch_enqueue(),
which is not reached in all paths that consume or cancel a direct dispatch
verdict.
Fix it by clearing it at the right places:
- direct_dispatch(): cache the direct dispatch state in local variables
and clear it before dispatch_enqueue() on the synchronous path. For
the deferred path, the direct dispatch state must remain set until
process_ddsp_deferred_locals() consumes them.
- process_ddsp_deferred_locals(): cache the dispatch state in local
variables and clear it before calling dispatch_to_local_dsq(), which
may migrate the task to another rq.
- do_enqueue_task(): clear the dispatch state on the enqueue path
(local/global/bypass fallbacks), where the direct dispatch verdict is
ignored.
- dequeue_task_scx(): clear the dispatch state after dispatch_dequeue()
to handle both the deferred dispatch cancellation and the holding_cpu
race, covering all cases where a pending direct dispatch is
cancelled.
- scx_disable_task(): clear the direct dispatch state when
transitioning a task out of the current scheduler. Waking tasks may
have had the direct dispatch state set by the outgoing scheduler's
ops.select_cpu() and then been queued on a wake_list via
ttwu_queue_wakelist(), when SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP is set. Such
tasks are not on the runqueue and are not iterated by scx_bypass(),
so their direct dispatch state won't be cleared. Without this clear,
any subsequent SCX scheduler that tries to direct dispatch the task
will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_direct_dispatch().

Since commit 8e4f0b1ebc ("bpf: use rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate() for
trampoline.c"), the BPF prolog (__bpf_prog_enter) calls migrate_disable()
only when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is enabled, via rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate().
Without CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU, the prolog never touches migration_disabled,
so migration_disabled == 1 always means the task is truly
migration-disabled regardless of whether it is the current task.
The old unconditional p == current check was a false negative in this
case, potentially allowing a migration-disabled task to be dispatched to
a remote CPU and triggering scx_error in task_can_run_on_remote_rq().
Only apply the p == current disambiguation when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is
enabled, where the ambiguity with the BPF prolog still exists.

John reported that stress-ng-yield could make his machine unhappy and
managed to bisect it to commit b3d99f43c7 ("sched/fair: Fix
zero_vruntime tracking").
The combination of yield and that commit was specific enough to
hypothesize the following scenario:
Suppose we have 2 runnable tasks, both doing yield. Then one will be
eligible and one will not be, because the average position must be in
between these two entities.
Therefore, the runnable task will be eligible, and be promoted a full
slice (all the tasks do is yield after all). This causes it to jump over
the other task and now the other task is eligible and current is no
longer. So we schedule.
Since we are runnable, there is no {de,en}queue. All we have is the
__{en,de}queue_entity() from {put_prev,set_next}_task(). But per the
fingered commit, those two no longer move zero_vruntime.
All that moves zero_vruntime are tick and full {de,en}queue.
This means, that if the two tasks playing leapfrog can reach the
critical speed to reach the overflow point inside one tick's worth of
time, we're up a creek.
Additionally, when multiple cgroups are involved, there is no guarantee
the tick will in fact hit every cgroup in a timely manner. Statistically
speaking it will, but that same statistics does not rule out the
possibility of one cgroup not getting a tick for a significant amount of
time -- however unlikely.
Therefore, just like with the yield() case, force an update at the end
of every slice. This ensures the update is never more than a single
slice behind and the whole thing is within 2 lag bounds as per the
comment on entity_key().

SCX_KICK_WAIT busy-waits in kick_cpus_irq_workfn() using
smp_cond_load_acquire() until the target CPU's kick_sync advances. Because
the irq_work runs in hardirq context, the waiting CPU cannot reschedule and
its own kick_sync never advances. If multiple CPUs form a wait cycle, all
CPUs deadlock.
Replace the busy-wait in kick_cpus_irq_workfn() with resched_curr() to
force the CPU through do_pick_task_scx(), which queues a balance callback
to perform the wait. The balance callback drops the rq lock and enables
IRQs following the sched_core_balance() pattern, so the CPU can process
IPIs while waiting. The local CPU's kick_sync is advanced on entry to
do_pick_task_scx() and continuously during the wait, ensuring any CPU that
starts waiting for us sees the advancement and cannot form cyclic
dependencies.

There are two special cases in the idle loop that are handled
inconsistently even though they are analogous.
The first one is when a cpuidle driver is absent and the default CPU
idle time power management implemented by the architecture code is used.
In that case, the scheduler tick is stopped every time before invoking
default_idle_call().
The second one is when a cpuidle driver is present, but there is only
one idle state in its table. In that case, the scheduler tick is never
stopped at all.
Since each of these approaches has its drawbacks, reconcile them with
the help of one simple heuristic. Namely, stop the tick if the CPU has
been woken up by it in the previous iteration of the idle loop, or let
it tick otherwise.

Chasing vfork()'ed tasks on a CID ownership mode switch requires a full
task list walk, which is obviously expensive on large systems.
Avoid that by keeping a list of tasks using a mm MMCID entity in mm::mm_cid
and walk this list instead. This removes the proven to be flaky counting
logic and avoids a full task list walk in the case of vfork()'ed tasks.

Matthieu and Jiri reported stalls where a task endlessly loops in
mm_get_cid() when scheduling in.
It turned out that the logic which handles vfork()'ed tasks is broken. It
is invoked when the number of tasks associated to a process is smaller than
the number of MMCID users. It then walks the task list to find the
vfork()'ed task, but accounts all the already processed tasks as well.
If that double processing brings the number of to be handled tasks to 0,
the walk stops and the vfork()'ed task's CID is not fixed up. As a
consequence a subsequent schedule in fails to acquire a (transitional) CID
and the machine stalls.
Cure this by removing the accounting condition and make the fixup always
walk the full task list if it could not find the exact number of users in
the process' thread list.

A newly forked task is accounted as MMCID user before the task is visible
in the process' thread list and the global task list. This creates the
following problem:
CPU1 CPU2
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew1)
tnew1->mm.mm_cid_users++;
tnew1->mm_cid.cid = getcid()
-> preemption
fork()
sched_mm_cid_fork(tnew2)
tnew2->mm.mm_cid_users++;
// Reaches the per CPU threshold
mm_cid_fixup_tasks_to_cpus()
for_each_other(current, p)
....
As tnew1 is not visible yet, this fails to fix up the already allocated CID
of tnew1. As a consequence a subsequent schedule in might fail to acquire a
(transitional) CID and the machine stalls.
Move the invocation of sched_mm_cid_fork() after the new task becomes
visible in the thread and the task list to prevent this.
This also makes it symmetrical vs. exit() where the task is removed as CID
user before the task is removed from the thread and task lists.

scx_enable() uses double-checked locking to lazily initialize a static
kthread_worker pointer. The fast path reads helper locklessly:
if (!READ_ONCE(helper)) { // lockless read -- no helper_mutex
The write side initializes helper under helper_mutex, but previously
used a plain assignment:
helper = kthread_run_worker(0, "scx_enable_helper");
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
plain write -- KCSAN data race with READ_ONCE() above
Since READ_ONCE() on the fast path and the plain write on the
initialization path access the same variable without a common lock,
they constitute a data race. KCSAN requires that all sides of a
lock-free access use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() consistently.
Use a temporary variable to stage the result of kthread_run_worker(),
and only WRITE_ONCE() into helper after confirming the pointer is
valid. This avoids a window where a concurrent caller on the fast path
could observe an ERR pointer via READ_ONCE(helper) before the error
check completes.

sched/deadline: Fix missing ENQUEUE_REPLENISH during PI de-boosting
enqueue_task_scx() takes int enq_flags from the sched_class interface.
SCX enqueue flags starting at bit 32 (SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT and above) are
silently truncated when passed through activate_task(). extra_enq_flags
was added as a workaround - storing high bits in rq->scx.extra_enq_flags
and OR-ing them back in enqueue_task_scx(). However, the OR target is
still the int parameter, so the high bits are lost anyway.
The current impact is limited as the only affected flag is SCX_ENQ_PREEMPT
which is informational to the BPF scheduler - its loss means the scheduler
doesn't know about preemption but doesn't cause incorrect behavior.
Fix by renaming the int parameter to core_enq_flags and introducing a
u64 enq_flags local that merges both sources. All downstream functions
already take u64 enq_flags.

Commit 0927780c90 ("sched_ext: Use READ_ONCE() for lock-free reads
of module param variables") annotated the plain reads of
scx_slice_bypass_us and scx_bypass_lb_intv_us in bypass_lb_cpu(), but
missed a third site in scx_bypass():
WRITE_ONCE(scx_slice_dfl, scx_slice_bypass_us * NSEC_PER_USEC);
scx_slice_bypass_us is a module parameter writable via sysfs in
process context through set_slice_us() -> param_set_uint_minmax(),
which performs a plain store without holding bypass_lock. scx_bypass()
reads the variable under bypass_lock, but since the writer does not
take that lock, the two accesses are concurrent.
WRITE_ONCE() only applies volatile semantics to the store of
scx_slice_dfl -- the val expression containing scx_slice_bypass_us is
evaluated as a plain read, providing no protection against concurrent
writes.
Wrap the read with READ_ONCE() to complete the annotation started by
commit 0927780c90 and make the access KCSAN-clean, consistent with
the existing READ_ONCE(scx_slice_bypass_us) in bypass_lb_cpu().

The task ownership state machine in sched_ext is quite hard to follow
from the code alone. The interaction of ownership states, memory
ordering rules and cross-CPU "lock dancing" makes the overall model
subtle.
Extend the documentation next to scx_ops_state to provide a more
structured and self-contained description of the state transitions and
their synchronization rules.
The new reference should make the code easier to reason about and
maintain and can help future contributors understand the overall
task-ownership workflow.

bypass_lb_cpu() reads scx_bypass_lb_intv_us and scx_slice_bypass_us

parameter writes via sysfs can happen concurrently:
min_delta_us = scx_bypass_lb_intv_us / SCX_BYPASS_LB_MIN_DELTA_DIV;

if (delta < DIV_ROUND_UP(min_delta_us, scx_slice_bypass_us))

scx_bypass_lb_intv_us already uses READ_ONCE() in scx_bypass_lb_timerfn()

bypass_lb_cpu() inconsistent. scx_slice_bypass_us has the same
lock-free access pattern in the same function.

bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() reads dsq->seq via READ_ONCE() without holding
any lock, making dsq->seq a lock-free concurrently accessed variable.
However, dispatch_enqueue(), the sole writer of dsq->seq, uses a plain
increment without the matching WRITE_ONCE() on the write side:
dsq->seq++;
^^^^^^^^^^^
plain write -- KCSAN data race
The KCSAN documentation requires that if one accessor uses READ_ONCE()
or WRITE_ONCE() on a variable to annotate lock-free access, all other
accesses must also use the appropriate accessor. A plain write leaves
the pair incomplete and will trigger KCSAN warnings.
Fix by using WRITE_ONCE() for the write side of the update:
WRITE_ONCE(dsq->seq, dsq->seq + 1);
This is consistent with bpf_iter_scx_dsq_new() and makes the

The problem is that when a SCHED_DEADLINE task (lock holder) is
changed to a lower priority class via sched_setscheduler(), it may
fail to properly inherit the parameters of potential DEADLINE donors
if it didn't already inherit them in the past (shorter deadline than
donor's at that time). This might lead to bandwidth accounting
corruption, as enqueue_task_dl() won't recognize the lock holder as
boosted.
The scenario occurs when:
1. A DEADLINE task (donor) blocks on a PI mutex held by another
DEADLINE task (holder), but the holder doesn't inherit parameters
(e.g., it already has a shorter deadline)
2. sched_setscheduler() changes the holder from DEADLINE to a lower
class while still holding the mutex
3. The holder should now inherit DEADLINE parameters from the donor
and be enqueued with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, but this doesn't happen
Fix the issue by introducing __setscheduler_dl_pi(), which detects when
a DEADLINE (proper or boosted) task gets setscheduled to a lower
priority class. In case, the function makes the task inherit DEADLINE
parameters of the donoer (pi_se) and sets ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag to
ensure proper bandwidth accounting during the next enqueue operation.

During scx_enable(), the READY -> ENABLED task switching loop changes the
calling thread's sched_class from fair to ext. Since fair has higher
priority than ext, saturating fair-class workloads can indefinitely starve
the enable thread, hanging the system. This was introduced when the enable
path switched from preempt_disable() to scx_bypass() which doesn't protect
against fair-class starvation. Note that the original preempt_disable()
protection wasn't complete either - in partial switch modes, the calling
thread could still be starved after preempt_enable() as it may have been
switched to ext class.
Fix it by offloading the enable body to a dedicated system-wide RT
(SCHED_FIFO) kthread which cannot be starved by either fair or ext class
tasks. scx_enable() lazily creates the kthread on first use and passes the
ops pointer through a struct scx_enable_cmd containing the kthread_work,
then synchronously waits for completion.
The workfn runs on a different kthread from sch->helper (which runs
disable_work), so it can safely flush disable_work on the error path
without deadlock.

The iterator css_for_each_descendant_pre() walks the cgroup hierarchy
under cgroup_lock(). It does not increment the reference counts on
yielded css structs.
According to the cgroup documentation, css_put() should only be used
to release a reference obtained via css_get() or css_tryget_online().
Since the iterator does not use either of these to acquire a reference,
calling css_put() in the error path of scx_cgroup_init() causes a
refcount underflow.
Remove the unbalanced css_put() to prevent a potential Use-After-Free

scx_attr_ops_show() and scx_uevent() access scx_root->ops.name directly.
This is problematic for two reasons:
1. The file-level comment explicitly identifies naked scx_root
dereferences as a temporary measure that needs to be replaced
with proper per-instance access.
2. scx_attr_events_show(), the neighboring sysfs show function in
the same group, already uses the correct pattern:
struct scx_sched *sch = container_of(kobj, struct scx_sched, kobj);
Having inconsistent access patterns in the same sysfs/uevent
group is error-prone.
The kobject embedded in struct scx_sched is initialized as:
kobject_init_and_add(&sch->kobj, &scx_ktype, NULL, "root");
so container_of(kobj, struct scx_sched, kobj) correctly retrieves
the owning scx_sched instance in both callbacks.
Replace the naked scx_root dereferences with container_of()-based
access, consistent with scx_attr_events_show() and in preparation
for proper multi-instance scx_sched support.

scx_claim_exit() atomically sets exit_kind, which prevents scx_error() from
triggering further error handling. After claiming exit, the caller must kick
the helper kthread work which initiates bypass mode and teardown.
If the calling task gets preempted between claiming exit and kicking the
helper work, and the BPF scheduler fails to schedule it back (since error
handling is now disabled), the helper work is never queued, bypass mode
never activates, tasks stop being dispatched, and the system wedges.
Disable preemption across scx_claim_exit() and the subsequent work kicking

lockdep_assert_preemption_disabled() to scx_claim_exit() to enforce the

The current cpuset partition code is able to dynamically update
the sched domains of a running system and the corresponding

The housekeeping cpumask update requires flushing a number of different

To avoid such a circular locking dependency problem, we have to
call housekeeping_update() without holding the cpus_read_lock() and
cpuset_mutex. The current set of wq's flushed by housekeeping_update()
may not have work functions that call cpus_read_lock() directly,
but we are likely to extend the list of wq's that are flushed in the
future. Moreover, the current set of work functions may hold locks that
may have cpu_hotplug_lock down the dependency chain.
So housekeeping_update() is now called after releasing cpus_read_lock
and cpuset_mutex at the end of a cpuset operation. These two locks are
then re-acquired later before calling rebuild_sched_domains_locked().
To enable mutual exclusion between the housekeeping_update() call and
other cpuset control file write actions, a new top level cpuset_top_mutex
is introduced. This new mutex will be acquired first to allow sharing
variables used by both code paths. However, cpuset update from CPU
hotplug can still happen in parallel with the housekeeping_update()
call, though that should be rare in production environment.
As cpus_read_lock() is now no longer held when
tmigr_isolated_exclude_cpumask() is called, it needs to acquire it
directly.
The lockdep_is_cpuset_held() is also updated to return true if either
cpuset_top_mutex or cpuset_mutex is held.

It turns out there were two related problems that could lead to a
missed preemption:
- when hitting newidle balance from the idle thread, it would elevate
rb->next_class from &idle_sched_class to &fair_sched_class, causing
later wakeup_preempt() calls to not hit the sched_class_above()
case, and not issue resched_curr().
Notably, this modification pattern should only lower the
next_class, and never raise it. Create two new helper functions to
wrap this.
- when doing schedule_idle(), it was possible to miss (re)setting
rq->next_class to &idle_sched_class, leading to the very same

In the EEVDF framework with Run-to-Parity protection, `se->vprot` is an
independent variable defining the virtual protection timestamp.
When `reweight_entity()` is called (e.g., via nice/renice), it performs
the following actions to preserve Lag consistency:
1. Scales `se->vlag` based on the new weight.
2. Calls `place_entity()`, which recalculates `se->vruntime` based on
the new weight and scaled lag.
However, the current implementation fails to update `se->vprot`, leading
to mismatches between the task's actual runtime and its expected duration.

It turns out that zero_vruntime tracking is broken when there is but a single
task running. Current update paths are through __{en,de}queue_entity(), and
when there is but a single task, pick_next_task() will always return that one
task, and put_prev_set_next_task() will end up in neither function.
This can cause entity_key() to grow indefinitely large and cause overflows,
leading to much pain and suffering.
Furtermore, doing update_zero_vruntime() from __{de,en}queue_entity(), which
are called from {set_next,put_prev}_entity() has problems because:
- set_next_entity() calls __dequeue_entity() before it does cfs_rq->curr = se.
This means the avg_vruntime() will see the removal but not current, missing
the entity for accounting.
- put_prev_entity() calls __enqueue_entity() before it does cfs_rq->curr =
NULL. This means the avg_vruntime() will see the addition *and* current,
leading to double accounting.
Both cases are incorrect/inconsistent.
Noting that avg_vruntime is already called on each {en,de}queue, remove the
explicit avg_vruntime() calls (which removes an extra 64bit division for each
{en,de}queue) and have avg_vruntime() update zero_vruntime itself.
Additionally, have the tick call avg_vruntime() -- discarding the result, but
for the side-effect of updating zero_vruntime.
While there, optimize avg_vruntime() by noting that the average of one value is
rather trivial to compute.
Test case:
# taskset -c -p 1 $$
# taskset -c 2 bash -c 'while :; do :; done&'
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched/debug | awk '/^cpu#/ {P=0} /^cpu#2,/ {P=1} {if (P) print $0}' | grep -e zero_vruntime -e "^>"

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Shinichiro reported a KASAN UAF, which is actually an out of bounds access
in the MMCID management code.
CPU0 CPU1
T1 runs in userspace
T0: fork(T4) -> Switch to per CPU CID mode
fixup() set MM_CID_TRANSIT on T1/CPU1
T4 exit()
T3 exit()
T2 exit()
T1 exit() switch to per task mode
---> Out of bounds access.
As T1 has not scheduled after T0 set the TRANSIT bit, it exits with the
TRANSIT bit set. sched_mm_cid_remove_user() clears the TRANSIT bit in
the task and drops the CID, but it does not touch the per CPU storage.
That's functionally correct because a CID is only owned by the CPU when
the ONCPU bit is set, which is mutually exclusive with the TRANSIT flag.
Now sched_mm_cid_exit() assumes that the CID is CPU owned because the
prior mode was per CPU. It invokes mm_drop_cid_on_cpu() which clears the
not set ONCPU bit and then invokes clear_bit() with an insanely large
bit number because TRANSIT is set (bit 29).
Prevent that by actually validating that the CID is CPU owned in
mm_drop_cid_on_cpu().
