[PATCH] sched_ext: Fix SCX_EFLAG_INITIALIZED being a no-op flag
From: David Carlier
Date: Thu Feb 26 2026 - 07:45:40 EST
SCX_EFLAG_INITIALIZED is the sole member of enum scx_exit_flags with no
explicit value, so the compiler assigns it 0. This makes the bitwise OR
in scx_ops_init() a no-op:
sch->exit_info->flags |= SCX_EFLAG_INITIALIZED; /* |= 0 */
As a result, BPF schedulers cannot distinguish whether ops.init()
completed successfully by inspecting exit_info->flags.
Assign the value 1LLU << 0 so the flag is actually set.
