finish_dispatch() uses the qseq embedded in p->scx.ops_state to tell
whether the QUEUED instance of a task it's about to claim is the one
scx_bpf_dsq_insert() saw. qseq is generated from rq->scx.ops_qseq, but
the counters of different rqs are independent, so if a task is dequeued
and re-enqueued on a different rq between scx_bpf_dsq_insert() and
finish_dispatch(), the new QUEUED instance can end up with the same
qseq as the old one:
CPU X CPU Z
----- -----
enqueue p on rq A, qseq = N
ops.dispatch()
scx_bpf_dsq_insert(p)
records qseq N
sched_setaffinity(p)
dequeue p from rq A
enqueue p on rq B, qseq = N
finish_dispatch(p, N)
qseq matches, p is claimed
The claim itself is still atomic so the core stays consistent, but an
insert issued for a previous QUEUED instance gets applied to a new one
which the BPF scheduler has just received through ops.enqueue(). This
breaks the guarantee that dispatches targeting a stale instance are
ignored.
Generate qseq from a per-task counter, p->scx.ops_qseq, instead so that
consecutive QUEUED instances of a task never share a qseq regardless of
which rq they're on. The counter is only updated in
scx_do_enqueue_task() with the task's rq locked, so no additional
synchronization is needed, and it fits in an existing hole in struct
sched_ext_entity on 64bit. Remove the now unused rq->scx.ops_qseq.
Never generate qseq 0. NONE and DISPATCHING don't carry a qseq, so
scx_bpf_dsq_insert() on a task in either state records 0. With a
per-task counter, every task's first QUEUED instance would otherwise get
qseq 0 and could be claimed by such an insert. Wrap the counter where
the QSEQ field wraps so that it can't reach a value that shifts to 0 on
32bit either.
