- Improve recovery from misbehaving BPF schedulers. When a scheduler puts many tasks with varying affinity restrictions on a shared DSQ, CPUs scanning through tasks they cannot run can overwhelm the system, causing lockups. Bypass mode now uses per-CPU DSQs with a load balancer to avoid this, and hooks into the hardlockup detector to attempt recovery. Add scx_cpu0 example scheduler to demonstrate this scenario. - Add lockless peek operation for DSQs to reduce lock contention for schedulers that need to query queue state during load balancing. - Allow scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to be called from anywhere in preparation for deprecating cpu_acquire/release() callbacks in favor of generic BPF hooks. - Prepare for hierarchical scheduler support: add scx_bpf_task_set_slice() and scx_bpf_task_set_dsq_vtime() kfuncs, make scx_bpf_dsq_insert*() return bool, and wrap kfunc args in structs for future aux__prog parameter. - Implement cgroup_set_idle() callback to notify BPF schedulers when a cgroup's idle state changes. - Fix migration tasks being incorrectly downgraded from stop_sched_class to rt_sched_class across sched_ext enable/disable. Applied late as the fix is low risk and the bug subtle but needs stable backporting. - Various fixes and cleanups including cgroup exit ordering, SCX_KICK_WAIT reliability, and backward compatibility improvements. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIQEABYKACwWIQTfIjM1kS57o3GsC/uxYfJx3gVYGQUCaS4h1A4cdGpAa2VybmVs Lm9yZwAKCRCxYfJx3gVYGe/MAP9EZ0pLiTpmMtt6mI/11Fmi+aWfL84j1zt13cz9 W4vb4gEA9eVEH6n9xyC4nhcOk9AQwSDuCWMOzLsnhW8TbEHVTww= =8W/B -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'sched_ext-for-6.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo: - Improve recovery from misbehaving BPF schedulers.
