[PATCH for-7.1-fixes 2/2] sched_ext: mark scx_sched_hash and dsq_hash no_sync_grow
From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Apr 16 2026 - 20:25:42 EST
Both are inserted/removed under raw_spinlock_t (scx_sched_lock and dsq->lock
respectively). rhashtable's sync grow path is unsafe under raw_spinlock_t.
Set no_sync_grow so inserts only ever take the bucket bit-spin lock; the
deferred worker continues to grow the table.
Fixes: f0e1a0643a59 ("sched_ext: Implement BPF extensible scheduler class")
Fixes: 25037af712eb ("sched_ext: Add rhashtable lookup for sub-schedulers")
