Subject: [PATCH 01/10] sched: Add vCPU debooster infrastructure
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2025 11:32:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251110033232.12538-2-kernellwp@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251110033232.12538-1-kernellwp@gmail.com>

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com>

Introduce foundational infrastructure for the vCPU debooster mechanism
to improve yield_to() effectiveness in virtualization workloads.

Add per-rq tracking fields for rate limiting (yield_deboost_last_time_ns)
and debouncing (yield_deboost_last_src/dst_pid, last_pair_time_ns).
Introduce global sysctl knob sysctl_sched_vcpu_debooster_enabled for
runtime control, defaulting to enabled. Add debugfs interface for
observability and initialization in sched_init().

The infrastructure is inert at this stage as no deboost logic is
implemented yet, allowing independent verification that existing
behavior remains unchanged.
