Subject: [PATCHSET sched_ext/for-7.1] sched_ext: Implement SCX_ENQ_IMMED
Date: Fri,  6 Mar 2026 14:28:14 -1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260307002817.1298341-1-tj@kernel.org> (raw)

Hello,

SCX_ENQ_IMMED makes enqueue to local DSQs succeed only if the task can
start running immediately - the current task is done and no other tasks are
waiting. If the condition isn't met, the task is re-enqueued through
ops.enqueue(). This gives the BPF scheduler tighter control over when tasks
actually land on a CPU.

- Patch 1 disallows setting slice to zero via scx_bpf_task_set_slice() as
  zero slice is used by ENQ_IMMED to detect whether the current task is
  done.

- Patch 2 implements SCX_ENQ_IMMED with reenqueue support and loop
  detection.

- Patch 3 adds SCX_OPS_ALWAYS_ENQ_IMMED ops flag to automatically apply
  IMMED to all local DSQ enqueues.

This patchset depends on:

- "sched_ext: Overhaul DSQ reenqueue infrastructure"
  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20260306190623.1076074-1-tj@kernel.org

Based on sched_ext/for-7.1 (4f8b122848db) + scx-reenq (a41719e6ae12).
