From: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi@linux.dev> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.12-rc1 commit 431844b65f4c1b988ccd886f2ed29c138f7bb262 category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/IDC9YK Reference: https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commi... -------------------------------- As discussed during the distro-centric session within the sched_ext Microconference at LPC 2024, introduce a sequence counter that is incremented every time a BPF scheduler is loaded. This feature can help distributions in diagnosing potential performance regressions by identifying systems where users are running (or have ran) custom BPF schedulers. Example: arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq 0 arighi@virtme-ng~> sudo scx_simple local=1 global=0 ^CEXIT: unregistered from user space arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq 1 In this way user-space tools (such as Ubuntu's apport and similar) are able to gather and include this information in bug reports.
