Subject: [PATCH 16/34] sched_ext: Move aborting flag to per-scheduler field
Date: Wed,  4 Mar 2026 12:01:01 -1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304220119.4095551-17-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304220119.4095551-1-tj@kernel.org>

The abort state was tracked in the global scx_aborting flag which was used to
break out of potential live-lock scenarios when an error occurs. With
hierarchical scheduling, each scheduler instance must track its own abort
state independently so that an aborting scheduler doesn't interfere with
others.

Move the aborting flag into struct scx_sched and update all access sites. The
early initialization check in scx_root_enable() that warned about residual
aborting state is no longer needed as each scheduler instance now starts with
a clean state.
