Add NUMA node topology awareness for scx_layared. This borrows some of
the NUMA handling from scx_rusty and allows layers to set a node mask.
Different layer kinds will use the node mask differently.

Non-kthreads with custom affinities in non-open layers are dispatched into a
LO_FALLBACK_DSQ, with the idea being that they're penalized for their custom
affinities. When a host is fully utilized, these tasks can end up being starved
due to LO_FALLBACK_DSQ being consumed only when there are no other layers to
consume from. In internal workloads at Meta, we've observed that this can
happen in practice.
Longer term, we can probably address this by implementing layer weights and
applying that to fallback DSQs to avoid starvation. For now, let's just
dispatch them to HI_FALLBACK_DSQ to avoid this starvation issue.

sched_ext is about to be merged upstream. There are some compatibility
breaking changes and we're making the current sched_ext/for-6.11
1edab907b57d ("sched_ext/scx_qmap: Pick idle CPU for direct dispatch on
!wakeup enqueues") the baseline.
Tag everything except scx_mitosis as 1.0.0. As scx_mitosis is still in early
development and is currently temporarily disabled, only the patchlevel is
bumped.

- cgroup support hasn't landed in the upstream kernel yet. This most likely
will happen in a few weeks. For the time being, disable scx_flatcg,
scx_pair and scx_mitosis.
- Compat macro for DSQ task iterator dropped. This is now a part of
the baseline.
- scx_bpf_consume() isn't upstream yet. BPF interfacing side is still being
discussed. Dropped example usage from tools/sched_ext. None of the
practical schedulers use it, so this should be fine for now.
- scx_bpf_cpu_rq() added.
- AUTOATTACH workaround for newer libbpf versions added.
With commit 5d20f89a ("scheds-rust: build rust schedulers in sequence"),
schedulers are now built serially one after the other to prevent meson
and cargo from forking NxN parallel tasks.
However, this change has made building a single scheduler much more
cumbersome, due to the chain of dependencies.
For example, building scx_rusty using the specific meson target would
still result in all schedulers being built, because they all depend on
each other.
To address this issue, introduce the new meson build option
`serialize=true|false` (default is false).
This option allows to disable the schedulers' build chain, restoring the
old behavior.
With this option enabled, it is now possible to build just a single
scheduler, parallelizing the cargo build properly, without triggering
the build of the others. Example:
$ meson setup build -Dbuildtype=release -Dserialize=false
$ meson compile -C build scx_rusty

- pick_idle_cpu() was putting idle_smtmask that it didn't acquire.
- layered_enqueue() was unnecessarily entering preemption path after finding
an idle CPU.
- No need to test whether scx_bpf_get_idle_cpu/smtmask() return NULL. They
never do.
- Relocate cctx->yielding test into keep_runinng() from its caller.
Currently, when preempting, searching for the candidate CPU always starts
from the RR preemption cursor. Let's first try the previous CPU the
preempting task was on as that may have some locality benefits.
When a task is being enqueued outside wakeup path, ops.select_cpu() isn't
called, so we can end up in a situation where a newly enqueued task keeps
waiting in one of the DSQs while there are idle CPUs. Factor out idle CPU
selection path into pick_idle_cpu() and call it from the enqueue path in
such cases. This problem is shared across schedulers and likely needs a more
generic solution in the future.
yield(2) currently gives up the entire slice. Add "yield_ignore" layer
parameter which can modulate the magnitude of yiedling. When 1.0, yields are
completely ignored. 0.5, only half worth of the full slice is given up and
so on.
Currently, a task which yields is treated the same as a task which has run
out its slice. As the budget charged to a task is calculated from wall clock
time, a repeatedly yielding task can stay at the top of the queue for quite
a while hogging the CPU and spiking the number of scheduling events.
Let's add explicit yield support. An yielding task is now always charged the
full slice and not allowed to keep running on the same CPU.
The keep_running path relies on the implicit last task enqueue which makes
the statistics a bit difficult to track. Let's make the enqueue path
comprehensive:
- Set SCX_OPS_ENQ_LAST and handle the last runnable task enqueue explicitly.
- Implement layered_cpu_release() to re-enqueue tasks from a CPU preempted
by a higher pri sched class and handle the re-enqueued tasks explicitly in
layered_enqueue().
- Add more statistics to track all enqueue operations.
When a task exhausts its slice, layered currently doesn't make any effort to
keep it on the same CPU. It dispatches the next task to run and then
enqueues the running one. This leads to suboptimal behaviors. e.g. When this
happens to a task in a preempting layer, the task will most likely find an
idle CPU or a task to preempt and then migrate there causing a completely
unnecessary migration.
This patch layered_dispatch() test whether the current task should keep
running on the CPU and then skip dispatching to keep the task running. This
behavior depends on the implicit local DSQ enqueue mechanism which triggers
when there are no other tasks to run.
- scx_utils: Replace kfunc_exists() with ksym_exists() which doesn't care
about the type of the symbol.
- scx_layered: Fix load failure on kernels >= v6.10-rc due to
scheduler_tick() -> sched_tick rename. Attach the tick fentry function to
either scheduler_tick() or sched_tick().
Make restart handling with user_exit_info simpler and consistently use the
load and report macros consistently across the rust schedulers. This makes
all schedulers automatically handle auto restarts from CPU hotplug events.
Note that this is necessary even for scx_lavd which has CPU hotplug
operations as CPU hotplug operations which took place between skel open and
scheduler init can still trigger restart.
layered_dispatch() was incorrectly continuing down to the lower priority
DSQs after successfully consuming from HI_FALLBACK_DSQ which can lead to
latency issues. Fix it.
The main reason why custom affinities are tricky for scx_layered is because
if we put a task which doesn't allow all CPUs into a layer's DSQ, it may not
get consumed for an indefinite amount of time. However, this is only true
for confined layers. Both open and grouped layers always consumed from all
CPUs and thus don't have this risk.
Let's allow tasks with custom affinities in open and grouped layers.
- In select_cpu(), don't consider direct dispatching to a local DSQ as
affinity violation even if the target CPU is outside the layer's cpumask
if the layer is open.
- In enqueue(), separate out per-cpu kthread special case into its own
block. Note that this is only applied if the layer is not preempting as a
preempting layer has a higher priority than HI_FALLBACK_DSQ anyway.
- Trigger the LO_FALLBACK_DSQ path for other threads only if the layer is
confined.
- The preemption path now also runs for tasks with a custom affinity in open
and grouped layers. Update it so that it only considers the CPUs in the
preempting task's allowed cpumask.
(cherry picked from commit 82d2f887a4608de61ddf5e15643c10e504a88f7b)
- AFFN_VIOL for per-cpu tasks could be double counted. Once in select_cpu()
and again in enqueue(). Count in select_cpu() only when direct
dispatching.
- Violating tasks were prioritized over non-violating ones because they were
queued on SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL which has priority over all user DSQs. This
doesn't make sense. Let's introduce two fallback DSQs - HI_FALLBACK_DSQ
and LO_FALLBACK_DSQ. HI is used for violating kthreads and LO for
violating user threads. HI is dispatched after preempting layers and LO
after all other layers. This shouldn't change the behavior too much for
kthreads while punshing, rather than rewarding, violating user threads.

C SCX_OPS_ATTACH() and rust scx_ops_attach() macros were not calling
.attach() and were only attaching the struct_ops. This meant that all
non-struct_ops BPF programs contained in the skels were never attached which

Let's fix it by adding .attach() invocation the the attach macros.

If a library creates threads, those threads will often have the same
name. If two different processes of different priority both use a
library, it may be that we want the library's threads in each process to
be put into different layers.
To support this, let's add the ability to filter not only by task name,
but also by process name via the task thread group leader's comm.
Tested by creating two executables named "foo" and "bar", which both
spawn a bunch of tasks named "exp_worker" that spin until being
interrupted. With this config: https://pastebin.com/Uz2phzxQ, the tasks

When I transitioned layered to using task local storage, I messed up

In scx_layered, we're using a BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH map (indexed by pid)
rather than a BPF_MAP_TYPE_TASK_STORAGE, to track local storage for a
task. As far as I can tell, there's no reason we need to be doing this.
We never access the map from user space, and we're even passing a
struct task_struct * to a helper subprog to look up the task context
rather than only doing it by pid.
Using a hashmap is error prone for this because we end up having to
manually track lifecycles for entries in the map rather than relying on
BPF to do it for us. For example, BPF will automatically free a task's
entry from the map when it exits. Let's just use TLS here rather than a
hashmap to avoid issues from this (e.g. we've observed the scheduler
getting evicted because we're accessing a stale map entry after a task
has been destroyed).

I have a usecase where specific nice values are used to bucket tasks
into groups that are handled separately by different `scx_layered`
policies, with no implications of relative priority between niceness X,
X + 1, X - 1, etc. In other words, nicevals are used as simple tags in
this scenario.
If we wanted to treat a specific niceness this way e.g. `11`, we could
do so with AND'd MATCH_NICE_{ABOVE,BELOW} like so:
```json
"matches" : [
[
{
"NiceAbove": 10
},
{
"NiceBelow": 12
},
],
],
```
But this is unnecessarily verbose and doesn't communicate the intent of
the match very well. Adding a `NiceEquals` matcher simplifies the
config and makes intent obvious:
```json
"matches" : [
[
{
"NiceEquals": 11
},
],
],
```
This PR adds support for such a matcher.
Also, rename `layer_match.nice_above_or_below` to just
`layer_match.nice`, as the former doesn't describe the newly-added
matcher's use of the field. It's still obvious that `layer_match.nice`
is relevant to MATCH_NICE_{ABOVE, BELOW, EQUALS}.

Currently, in layered_dispatch, we do the following:
1. Iterate over all preempt=true layers, and first try to consume from
them.
2. Iterate over all confined layers, and consume from them if we find a
layer with a cpumask that contains the consuming CPU.
3. Iterate over all grouped and open layers and consume from them in
ordered sequence.
In (2), we're only iterating over confined layers, but we should also be
iterating over grouped layers. Otherwise, despite a consuming CPU being
allocated to a specific grouped layer, the CPU will consume from
whichever grouped or open layer has a task that's ready to run.

In layered_init, we're currently setting all bits in every layers'
cpumask, and then asynchronously updating the cpumasks at later time to

we can instead have the init path actually refresh and initialize the
cpumasks directly.

We currently have a bug in layered wherein we could fail to propagate
layer updates from user space to kernel space if a layer is never
adjusted after it's first initialized. For example, in the following
configuration:
[
{
"name": "workload.slice",
"comment": "main workload slice",
"matches": [
[
{
"CgroupPrefix": "workload.slice/"
}
]
],
"kind": {
"Grouped": {
"cpus_range": [30, 30],
"util_range": [
0.0,
1.0
],
"preempt": false
}
}
},
{
"name": "normal",
"comment": "the rest",
"matches": [
[]
],
"kind": {
"Grouped": {
"cpus_range": [2, 2],
"util_range": [
0.0,
1.0
],
"preempt": false
}
}
}
]
Both layers are static, and need only be resized a single time, so the
configuration would never be propagated to the kernel due to us never
calling update_bpf_layer_cpumask(). Let's instead have the
initialization propagate changes to the skeleton before we attach the
scheduler.
This has the advantage both of fixing the bug mentioned above where a
static configuration is never propagated to the kernel, and that we
don't have a short period when the scheduler is first attached where we
don't make optimal scheduling decisions due to the layer resizing not
being propagated.

Currently scx_layered outputs statistics periodically as info! logs. The
format of this is largely unstructured and mostly suitable for running
scx_layered interactively (e.g. observing its behavior on the command
line or via logs after the fact).
In order to run scx_layered at larger scale, it's desireable to have
statistics output in some format that is amenable to being ingested into
monitoring databases (e.g. Prometheseus). This allows collection of
stats across many machines.
This commit adds a command line flag (-o) that outputs statistics to
stdout in OpenMetrics format instead of the normal log mechanism.
OpenMetrics has a public format
specification (https://github.com/OpenObservability/OpenMetrics) and is
in use by many projects.
The library for producing OpenMetrics metrics is lightweight but does
induce some changes. Primarily, metrics need to be pre-registered (see
OpenMetricsStats::new()).
Without -o, the output looks as before, for example:

^C19:40:11 [INFO] EXIT: BPF scheduler unregistered

After updates to reflect the updated init and direct dispatch API, the
schedulers aren't compatible with older kernels. Bump versions and publish
releases.
In the latest kernel, sched_ext API has changed in two areas:
- ops.prep_enable/cancel_enable/enable/disable() replaced with
ops.init_task/enable/disable/exit_task().
- scx_bpf_dispatch() can now be called from ops.select_cpu(). Also,
SCX_ENQ_LOCAL flag is removed. Instead, users can call
scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() from ops.select_cpu() and use the @is_idle out
param value to determine whether to dispatch directly.
This commit updates all schedules so that they build.
- Init functions renamed / merged / split.
- ops.select_cpu() is added to several schedulers and local direct
disptching logic is moved there.
This is the minimum update which is need to make the schedulers build and
work. It needs further update to e.g. move vtime udpates to ops.enable().
This because each scheduler has it's own Rust Crate
and it's better if they had a README associated with each one.

- combine c and kernel-examples as it's confusing to have both
- rename 'rust-user' and 'c-user' to just 'rust' and 'c', which is simpler
- update and fix sync-to-kernel.sh
