Subject: [PATCH v2 sched_ext/for-7.3 13/36] sched_ext: Defer scx_sched kobj sysfs add into the enable workfns
Date: Sun, 5 Jul 2026 15:40:35 -1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706014058.439853-14-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706014058.439853-1-tj@kernel.org>
Split kobject_init_and_add() in scx_alloc_and_add_sched(): only
kobject_init() runs there. A new scx_sched_sysfs_add() helper does
kobject_add() (and creates sub_kset when the scheduler implements
ops.sub_attach), called by both enable workfns once @sch is linked and its
sysfs-visible state is initialized. Prep so a future caps attribute can rely
on @sch being fully built by the time it's sysfs-visible. Add early enough
that a stall later in enable still leaves sysfs inspectable.
