Changwoo Min d1d9e97d08 scx_lavd: reduce LAVD_CPDOM_MAX_DIST to 4
The BPF verifier in the old kernel gives up to analysis the nested loop
in the consume_task(). We reduce the loop less complex by reducing
LAVD_CPDOM_MAX_DIST from 6 to 4 in order to make the verifier happy.
Note that the theoretical maximum distance is 6 (numa > llc > core type)
but there is no such hardware today, hence reducing it to 6 should be
okay in next few years, when hopefully the verifier becomes smarter.

SCHED_EXT SCHEDULERS

Introduction

This directory contains the repo's schedulers.

Some of these schedulers are simply examples of different types of schedulers that can be built using sched_ext. They can be loaded and used to schedule on your system, but their primary purpose is to illustrate how various features of sched_ext can be used.

Other schedulers are actually performant, production-ready schedulers. That is, for the correct workload and with the correct tuning, they may be deployed in a production environment with acceptable or possibly even improved performance. Some of the examples could be improved to become production schedulers.

Please see the following README files for details on each of the various types of schedulers:

  • rust describes all of the schedulers with rust user space components. All of these schedulers are production ready.
  • c describes all of the schedulers with C user space components. All of these schedulers are production ready.

Note on syncing

Note that there is a sync-to-kernel.sh script in this directory. This is used to sync any changes to the specific schedulers with the Linux kernel tree. If you've made any changes to a scheduler in please use the script to synchronize with the sched_ext Linux kernel tree:

$ ./sync-to-kernel.sh /path/to/kernel/tree
