Subject: [PATCH 08/10] sched_ext: Skip ops.runnable() when nested in SCX_CALL_OP_TASK
Date: Wed,  6 May 2026 19:45:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260506174639.535232-9-arighi@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260506174639.535232-1-arighi@nvidia.com>

ops.running() can pull in enqueue_task_scx() -> ops.runnable() on the
same current task while kf_tasks[] save/restore is still insufficient
for every BPF/kfunc combination, leading to NULL dispatches and stack
corruption.

Track SCX_CALL_OP_TASK nesting in current->scx.kf_nest (incremented by
all SCX_CALL_OP_TASK* macros) and omit the ops.runnable() callback when
non-zero. The full enqueue path including ops.enqueue() still runs, only
the runnable hook is skipped in this case.
