Subject: [PATCH 08/46] sched_ext: Separate out scx_kick_cpu() and add @sch to it
Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2025 14:58:31 -1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250920005931.2753828-9-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250920005931.2753828-1-tj@kernel.org>
In preparation for multiple scheduler support, separate out scx_kick_cpu()
from scx_bpf_kick_cpu() and add the @sch parameter to it. scx_bpf_kick_cpu()
now acquires an RCU read lock, reads $scx_root, and calls scx_kick_cpu()
with it if non-NULL. The passed in @sch parameter is not used yet.
Internal uses of scx_bpf_kick_cpu() are converted to scx_kick_cpu(). Where
$sch is available, it's used. In the pick_task_scx() path where no
associated scheduler can be identified, $scx_root is used directly. Note
that $scx_root cannot be NULL in this case.
