Subject: [PATCHSET sched_ext/for-7.4] sched_ext: Add ops.sub_cid_sched_updated()
Date: Mon,  5 Oct 2026 07:55:17 -1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261005175520.2756986-1-tj@kernel.org> (raw)

Hello,

A parent sched that delegates cpus to sub-scheds has no way of telling how
much each delegatee is using them. A parent that sizes its delegations by
demand cannot measure it, and one that wants to hand a cid from one sub to
another cannot see which sub it would take the cid from.

Patch 1 adds ops.sub_cid_sched_updated(), invoked on a sched when what it
sees running on a cid changes: NONE when no task of its subtree runs there,
SELF for its own task, or a direct child's cgroup id. Changes inside a
child's subtree are not reported. The op costs one pointer compare per
context switch when the sched does not change and sits behind a static key
that is on only while a loaded sched implements the op.

Patch 2 sizes scx_qmap's cid range buffer for large machines and patch 3
makes it show the cid-time each participant actually used next to what the
partition allocated to it.

Based on sched_ext/for-7.4 (3521f92ddd5f).

This patchset contains the following 3 patches.

 0001 sched_ext: Add ops.sub_cid_sched_updated() to report the sched running on a cid
 0002 sched_ext: scx_qmap: Size the cid range buffer for large machines
 0003 sched_ext: scx_qmap: Show actual cid use per participant

The patchset is also available in the following git branch:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext.git sub-cid-sched

diffstat follows. Thanks.
