Subject: [PATCH sched_ext/for-7.3 05/32] sched_ext: Reject direct slice and dsq_vtime writes for cid-form schedulers
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 22:01:32 -1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260703080159.2314350-6-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260703080159.2314350-1-tj@kernel.org>
Direct writes to p->scx.slice and p->scx.dsq_vtime bypass
scx_bpf_task_set_slice/dsq_vtime() and the authority checks they carry.
Those checks exist for sub-schedulers, which attach only through the
cid-form struct_ops, so the direct writes only need to be closed there.
Give sched_ext_ops_cid its own verifier ops that reject the two fields.
cid-form is a new interface with no legacy users, so there is no
compatibility to keep. The cpu-form keeps direct writes, and the deprecation
warning they carried is dropped.
