selftests/sched_ext: Handle sleeping task affinity changes in numa test (2026-07-23 07:50:37 -1000)
----------------------------------------------------------------
sched_ext: Fixes for v7.2-rc6
- More lifecycle fixes for the new sub-scheduler support: a failed enable
could tear down a never-linked sub-scheduler in a way that races the root
scheduler's disable and leads to a use-after-free, tasks that were not on
the ext class could still get the enable callback, and a policy-rejection
path silently rewrote a running task's scheduling policy instead of
aborting the scheduler.
- Scheduler enable/disable could deadlock with cgroup removal and a
concurrent cgroup weight write through kernfs. Fixed by reordering lock
acquisition.
- Sync wakeups could leave the waker CPU incorrectly marked idle in the
built-in idle-CPU tracking.
- A selftest fix for sleeping tasks whose CPU affinity changes before
wakeup.
----------------------------------------------------------------
