* enable ide's etc. to work on the bpf.c files
this makes it so that clangd and ide tools which use clangd
can work on the bpf.c code.
nothing should actually be changed outside of that ide/editor
environment, all the changes are ifdef'ed on LSP which is set
in the added .clangd file.
* move intf include out of both sides of ifdef toggle
Use `cargo fmt` with a specific nightly branch in the CI to enforce formatting. Globally format these files while the diff is still small so we can stay on top of it.
Test plan:
- CI lint check passes.
The domains are added to the aggregator when load is added (and
duty_cycle is not 0.0f64).
This commit makes sure that all domains are added to the aggregator even
when the calculated duty_cycle is 0.

meson build script was building each rust sub-project under rust/ and
scheds/rust/ separately. This means that each rust project is built
independently which leads to a couple problems - 1. There are a lot of
shared dependencies but they have to be built over and over again for each
proejct. 2. Concurrency management becomes sad - we either have to unleash
multiple cargo builds at the same time possibly thrashing the system or
build one by one.
We've been trying to solve this from meson side in vain. Thankfully, in
issue #546, @vimproved suggested using cargo workspace which makes the
sub-projects share the same target directory and built together by the same
cargo instance while still allowing each project to behave independently for
development and publishing purposes.
Make the following changes:
- Create two cargo workspaces - one under rust/, the other under
scheds/rust/. Each contains all rust projects underneath it.
- Don't let meson descend into rust/. These are libraries used by the rust
schedulers. No need to build them from meson. Cargo will build them as
needed.
- Change the rust_scheds build target to invoke `cargo build` in
scheds/rust/ and let cargo do its thing.
- Remove per-scheduler meson.build files and instead generate custom_targets
in scheds/rust/meson.build which invokes `cargo build -p $SCHED`.
- This changes rust binary directory. Update README and
meson-scripts/install_rust_user_scheds accordingly.
- Remove per-scheduler Cargo.lock as scheds/rust/Cargo.lock is shared by all
schedulers now.
- Unify .gitignore handling.

Wallclock time is reduced 5x and CPU time 7x.
Let's make it a bit easier to use:
- Shorten exported names by changing the prefix from ScxStats to Stats. This
should be distinctive enough and more inline with how most libraries name
their exports.
- Importing the right set of traits can be tricky. Introduce prelude module
so that importing is a bit less painful.
And move related ops into it. This is a bit more natural and will also allow
doing other operaitons (e.g. describing stats) without launching the server.
- Update scx_utils/build.rs so that 12 char SHA1 is generated instead of
full one.
- Add --version to scx_rusty. Use custom one as we don't want to use the
default cargo version one.
The logic of tasks filtering were moved from find_first_candidate() into
a vector filter operation in commit 1c3b563. However, it was forgotten
to transfer the logic with "NOT" since now .filter() will populate the
tasks we want, rather than .skip_while() which was throwing unwanted
tasks out.
That's why the logic here should be reverse so we won't take kworker or
migrated tasks into considerations.

In some scenarios, a CPU-intensive task may be on the critical path for
interactive workloads. For example, you may have a game with CPU-intensive
tasks that are crunching the logic for the game, and that's required for the
game to proceed without being choppy.
To support such workflows, this change adds logic to allow a non-interactive
task to inherit the lower (i.e. stronger) latency priority of another task if
it wakes or is woken by that task.

Currently, a task's deadline is computed as its vtime + a scaled function of
its average runtime (with its deadline being scaled down if it's more
interactive). This makes sense intuitively, as we do want an interactive task
to have an earlier deadline, but it also has some flaws.
For one thing, we're currently ignoring duty cycle when determining a task's
deadline. This has a few implications. Firstly, because we reward tasks with
higher waker and blocked frequencies due to considering them to be part of a
work chain, we implicitly penalize tasks that rarely ever use the CPU because
those frequencies are low. While those tasks are likely not part of a work
chain, they also should get an interactivity boost just by pure virtue of not
using the CPU very often. This should in theory be addressed by vruntime, but
because we cap the amount of vtime that a task can accumulate to one slice, it
may not be adequately reflected after a task runs for the first time.
Another problem is that we're minimizing a task's deadline if it's interactive,
but we're also not really penalizing a task that's a super CPU hog by
increasing its deadline. We sort of do a bit by applying a higher niceness
which gives it a higher deadline for a lower weight, but its somewhat minimal
considering that we're using niceness, and that the best an interactive task
can do is minimize its deadline to near zero relative to its vtime.
What we really want to do is "negatively" scale an interactive task's deadline
with the same magnitude as we "positively" scale a CPU-hogging task's deadline.
To do this, we make two major changes to how we compute deadline:
1. Instead of using niceness, we now instead use our own straightforward
scaling factor. This was chosen arbitrarily to be a scaling by 1000, but we
can and should improve this in the future.
2. We now create a _signed_ linear latency priority factor as a sum of the
three following inputs:
- Work-chain factor (log_2 of product of blocked freq and waker freq)
- Inverse duty cycle factor (log_2 of the inverse of a task's duty cycle --
higher duty cycle means lower factor)
- Average runtime factor (Higher avg runtime means higher average runtime
factor)
We then compute the latency priority as:
lat_prio := Average runtime factor - (work-chain factor + duty cycle factor)
This gives us a signed value that can be negative. With this, we can compute a
non-negative weight value by calculating a weight from the absolute value of
lat_prio, and use this to scale slice_ns. If lat_prio is negative we calculate
a task's deadline as its vtime MINUS its scaled slice_ns, and if it's positive,
it's the task's vtime PLUS scaled slice_ns.
This ends up working well because you get a higher weight both for highly
interactive tasks, and highly CPU-hogging / non-interactive tasks, which lets
you scale a task's deadline "more negatively" for interactive tasks, and "more
positively" for the CPU hogs.
With this change, we get a significant improvement in FPS. On a 7950X, if I run
the following workload:
$ stress-ng -c $((8 * $(nproc)))
1. I get 60 FPS when playing Stellaris (while time is progressing at max
speed), whereas EEVDF gets 6-7 FPS.
2. I get ~15-40 FPS while playing Civ6, whereas EEVDF seems to get < 1 FPS. The
Civ6 benchmark doesn't even start after over 4 minutes in the initial frame
with EEVDF, but gets us 13s / turn with rusty.
3. It seems that EEVDF has improved with Terraria in v6.9. It was able to
maintain ~30-55 FPS, as opposed to the ~5-10FPS we've seen in the past.
rusty is still able to maintain a solid 60-62FPS consistently with no
problem, however.
Simplify LoadBalancer::populate_tasks_by_load() by cutting out the
heap allocation bits, by moving mutable accesses in front of immutable
ones. Because multiple immutable accesses (between bss and rodata) do
not conflict, we don't need the intermediate PID storage.

Update libbpf-rs & libbpf-cargo to 0.24. Among other things, generated
skeletons now contain directly accessible map and program objects, no
longer necessitating the use of accessor methods. As a result, the risk
for mutability conflicts is reduced greatly.

This change refactors some of the helper methods for getting the
preferred node for tasks using mempolicy. The load balancing logic in
try_find_move_task is updated to allow for a filter, which is used to
filter for tasks with a preferred mempolicy.

This change makes scx_rusty mempolicy aware. When a process uses
set_mempolicy it can change NUMA memory preferences and cause
performance issues when tasks are scheduled on remote NUMA nodes. This
change modifies task_pick_domain to use the new helper method that
returns the preferred node id.

Instead of performing domain mask checking inside
"find_first_candidate()" every time, check whether the tasks within push
domain are abled to run on pull domain by performing the mask check at
vector generation stage.
This way can also avoid repeated computation generated by the same
(task, pull_dom) pair as they'll try to check whether the pull domain is
in the task domain mask.
Also since whether a task is a kworker won't change in time, we can
perform the check earlier and put it in the filter, too.
