Subject: [PATCH 03/13] sched_ext: Skip tasks with stale task_rq in bypass_lb_cpu()
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 10:44:08 -1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260424204418.3809733-4-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260424204418.3809733-1-tj@kernel.org>

bypass_lb_cpu() transfers tasks between per-CPU bypass DSQs without
migrating them - task_cpu() only updates when the donee later consumes the
task via move_remote_task_to_local_dsq(). If the LB timer fires again before
consumption and the new DSQ becomes a donor, @p is still on the previous CPU
and task_rq(@p) != donor_rq. @p can't be moved without its own rq locked.

Skip such tasks.

Fixes: 95d1df610cdc ("sched_ext: Implement load balancer for bypass mode")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v6.19+
