Subject: [PATCH 0/2] LoongArch: Add 128-bit atomic cmpxchg support
Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2025 15:45:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251120-2-v1-0-705bdc440550@linux.dev> (raw)

This patch series adds 128-bit atomic compare-and-exchange support for
LoongArch architecture, which fixes BPF scheduler test failures caused
by missing 128-bit atomics support.

The series consists of two patches:

1. "LoongArch: Add 128-bit atomic cmpxchg support"
   - Implements 128-bit atomic compare-and-exchange using LoongArch's
     LL.D/SC.Q instructions
   - Fixes BPF scheduler test failures (scx_central scx_qmap) where
     kmalloc_nolock_noprof returns NULL due to missing 128-bit atomics,
     leading to -ENOMEM errors during scheduler initialization

2. "LoongArch: Enable 128-bit atomics cmpxchg support"
   - Adds select HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE and select HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE
     in Kconfig to enable 128-bit atomic cmpxchg support

The issue was identified through BPF scheduler test failures where
scx_central and scx_qmap schedulers would fail to initialize. Testing
was performed using the scx_qmap scheduler from tools/sched_ext/,
confirming that the patches resolve the initialization failures.
