- Add static NR_CPU_IDS and NR_CPUS_POSSIBLE to topology.
- Fix comment for Topology::nr_cpu_ids(). Was missing a negation.
- cpumaks should be sized by nr_cpus_ids, not num_possible_cpus and the
number can't change while the system is running. Drop cpumask.nr_cpus and
use *NR_CPU_IDS everywhere.
- 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.
Allow to format a Cpumask as an hex string, implementing the proper
formatter LowerHex / UpperHex traits.

Add the L2 / L3 cache id to the Cpu struct, to quickly determine the
cache nodes associated to each CPU.

open_ops tracks which ops have been opened by the client session; however,
it was being created on each handle_request() making every request to open
each time. Fix it by moving it to the caller.
- Allow no-value user attributes which are automatically assigned "true"
when specified.
- Make "top" attribute string "true" instead of bool true for consistency.
Testing for existence is always enough for value-less attributes.
- Don't drop leading "_" from user attribute names when storing in dicts.
Dropping makes things more confusing.
- Add "_om_skip" to scx_layered fields which don't jive well with OM.
scxstats_to_openmetrics.py is updated accordignly and no longer generates
warnings on those fields.
- Examples and README updated accordingly.
This is a generic tool to pipe from scx_stats to OpenMetrics. This is a
barebone implmentation and the current output may not match what scx_layered
was outputting before. Will be updated later.
scx_stat is a statistics reporting library with the following goals:
- Minimal boilerplate code. Statistics are defined as a regular rust struct
which can contain integers, floats, strings, structs, and array or
BTreeMap of them. The struct and each field can be annotated using the
"stat" attribute. The "Stat" derive macro generates the necessary
metadata.
- On-demand reporting. ScxStatServer implements a UNIX domain socket server
which communicates using a simple json protocol. Stat structs can be added
to the server with closures to output them. There can be any number of
readers. ScxStatServer can be queried for the metadata of all stat structs
that it may report so that a generic tool can be written to pipe the
reported statistics to other frameworks (e.g. openmetrics).
- The interface protocol is pretty simple and it isn't difficult to interact
directly in json. ScxStatClient is provided to further simplify client
implementation.
- See rust/scx_stat/examples/{server,client}.rs for usage.
Re-add the partial mode option that was dropped during the refactoring.
The partial option allows to apply the scheduler only to the tasks which
have their scheduling policy set to SCHED_EXT via sched_setscheduler().

The API for determining which PID is running on a specific CPU is racy
and is unnecessary since this information can be obtained from user
space.
Additionally, it's not reliable for identifying idle CPUs. Therefore,
it's better to remove this API and, in the future, provide a cpumask
alternative that can export the idle state of the CPUs to user space.
As a consequence also change scx_rustland to dispatch one task a time,
instead of dispatching tasks in batches of idle cores (that are usually
not accurate due to the racy nature of the CPU ownership interaface).
Dispatching one task at a time even makes the scheduler more performant,
due to the vruntime scheduling being applied to more tasks sitting in
the scheduler's queue.

Drop the slice boost logic and apply a vruntime and task time slice
evaluation approach similar to scx_bpfland (but implement this in the
user-space component instead of the BPF part).
Additionally, introduce a slice_us_min parameter to define the minimum
time slice that can be assigned to a task, also similar to scx_bpfland.

Use the same idle selection logic used in scx_bpfland also in
scx_rustland_core.
Also drop fifo_mode and always use the BPF idle selection logic by
default as long as the system is not saturated, unless full_user is
specified.
This approach allows user-space schedulers aiming for maximum
performance to leverage the BPF idle selection logic (bypassing
user-space), while those seeking full control can enable full_user to
bypass the BPF CPU idle selection logic and choose the target CPU for
each task from user-space.
