Andrea Righi f0c33320ab scx_rustland: avoid calling scx_bpf_kick_cpu() from update_idle() 
Prior to commit 676bd88 ("bpf_rustland: do not dispatch the scheduler to
the global DSQ"), the user-space scheduler was dispatched using
SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL and we needed to explicitly kick idle CPUs from
update_idle() to ensure that at least one CPU was available to run the
user-space scheduler.

Now that we are using SCX_DSQ_LOCAL_ON|cpu to dispatch the user-space
scheduler, the target CPU is implicitly kicked. Therefore, the call to
scx_bpf_kick_cpu() within .update_idle() becomes redundant and we can
get rid of it.

Fixes: 676bd88 ("bpf_rustland: do not dispatch the scheduler to the global DSQ")

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
