Subject: [PATCH v24 11/11] sched: Migrate whole chain in proxy_migrate_task()
Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2025 22:31:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251124223111.3616950-12-jstultz@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251124223111.3616950-1-jstultz@google.com>

Instead of migrating one task each time through find_proxy_task(),
we can walk up the blocked_donor ptrs and migrate the entire
current chain in one go.

This was broken out of earlier patches and held back while the
series was being stabilized, but I wanted to re-introduce it.

Signed-off-by: John Stultz <jstultz@google.com>
---
v12:
* Earlier this was re-using blocked_node, but I hit
  a race with activating blocked entities, and to
  avoid it introduced a new migration_node listhead
v18:
* Add init_task initialization of migration_node as suggested
  by Suleiman
v22:
* Move migration_node under CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC as suggested
  by K Prateek
