Subject: [PATCH 06/17] sched: Add helper to block retained proxy donors
Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2026 19:35:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260816173732.17162-7-arighi@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260816173732.17162-1-arighi@nvidia.com>

Scheduler ownership changes may need to turn a mutex-blocked task
retained on the runqueue for proxy execution back into a normally
blocked task.

Add sched_proxy_block_task() to perform that transition while holding
p->pi_lock and the task's runqueue lock. Reset an active donor to the
physical current task before blocking it. If DELAY_DEQUEUE keeps a FAIR
donor queued, the immediately following sched_change_begin() completes
the dequeue through switching_from_fair() before recording its queued
state.

This is a preparatory change to support proxy execution with sched_ext.
