[PATCHSET v2 sched_ext/for-7.3] sched_ext: Sub-scheduler follow-ups
From: Tejun Heo
Date: Wed Jul 15 2026 - 19:51:42 EST
Hello,
v2: - Host scx_dispatch_sched() in a new inlines.h rather than at the end of
internal.h, which formed a circular include with cid.h (sashiko AI),
and drop sub.h's now-unused cid.h include.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260714230917.84158-1-tj@xxxxxxxxxx
Follow-ups to the sub-scheduler capability series, addressing two things
Andrea raised while reviewing v5[1]: sched teardown drained queued ecaps
syncs with an msleep() poll loop, and with CONFIG_EXT_SUB_SCHED=y hot paths
keep paying for sub-sched bookkeeping even when no sub-scheduler exists.
Patch 0001 replaces the teardown poll loop with direct removal from the
llist. Patches 0002-0003 are prep and 0004 adds the scx_has_subs static key
and gates the sub-sched portions of hot paths on it.

Based on sched_ext/for-7.3 (35f9cbbacb67).
This patchset contains the following 4 patches.
0001 sched_ext: Remove queued ecaps syncs directly on sched teardown
0002 sched_ext: Move scx_dispatch_sched() to a new inlines.h
0003 sched_ext: Gate sub_dispatch_prev with CONFIG_EXT_SUB_SCHED
0004 sched_ext: Add the scx_has_subs static key and gate sub-sched hot paths
The patchset is also available in the following git branch:

diffstat follows. Thanks.
