Hello,
Yeah. Expanding the in-kernel idle selector to be sub-sched-aware is
hard - it has to respect each sub-sched's cid window, partition
constraints, etc. Cmask in arena makes the same logic a lot easier
to express on the BPF side, so I think the right path is building
that infra in BPF rather than extending ext_idle.c.
Thanks.
