Subject: [PATCH 3/7] sched/debug: Stop and start server based on if it was active
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2026 22:50:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260120215808.188032-4-arighi@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260120215808.188032-1-arighi@nvidia.com>
From: Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>
Currently the DL server interface for applying parameters checks
CFS-internals to identify if the server is active. This is error-prone
and makes it difficult when adding new servers in the future.
Fix it, by using dl_server_active() which is also used by the DL server
code to determine if the DL server was started.
v2: do not start the server if runtime is zero (Juri Lelli)
