Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:
"Most of this continues the in-development sub-scheduler support, which
lets a root BPF scheduler delegate to nested sub-schedulers. The
dispatch-path building blocks landed in 7.1. A follow-up patchset in
development will complete enqueue-path support for hierarchical
scheduling. This cycle adds most of that infrastructure:
- Topological CPU IDs (cids): a dense, topology-ordered CPU numbering
where the CPUs of a core, LLC, or NUMA node form contiguous ranges,
so a topology unit becomes a (start, length) slice. Raw CPU numbers
are sparse and don't track topological closeness, which makes them
clumsy for sharding work across sub-schedulers and awkward in BPF.
- cmask: bitmaps windowed over a slice of cid space, so a
sub-scheduler can track, for example, the idle cids of its shard
without a full NR_CPUS cpumask.
- A struct_ops variant that cid-form sub-schedulers register with,
along with the cid-form kfuncs they call.
- BPF arena integration, which sub-scheduler support is built on. The
bpf-next additions let the kernel read and write the BPF
scheduler's arena directly, turning it into a real kernel/BPF
shared-memory channel. Shared state like the per-CPU cmask now
lives there.
- scx_qmap is reworked to exercise the new arena and cid interfaces.
Additionally:
- Exit-dump improvements: dump the faulting CPU first, expose the
exit CPU to BPF and userspace, and normalize the dump header.
- Misc kfuncs and cleanups: a task-ID lookup kfunc, __printf checking
on the error and dump formatters, header reorganization, and
assorted fixes"
