Add struct scx_pshard and sch->pshard[] indexed by shard_idx, each entry
allocated on its shard's NUMA node from scx_shard_node[si]. The struct
starts empty (one dummy field). Follow-up patches will grow it as
shard-local state lands. Only cid-type schedulers with an arena pool get
pshards.
Allocation happens after ops.init_cids() returns so any
scx_bpf_cid_override() it issues has finalized scx_nr_cid_shards and
scx_shard_node[]. sch->nr_pshards records the array size for the async RCU
free path, which may run after a later scheduler's scx_cid_init() has
rewritten the global.
v3: Build and publish pshard[] fully-formed here rather than a later patch.
v2: Free the partially-allocated pshard array on alloc failure. (sashiko AI)

Split kobject_init_and_add() in scx_alloc_and_add_sched(): only
kobject_init() runs there. A new scx_sched_sysfs_add() helper does
kobject_add() (and creates sub_kset when the scheduler implements
ops.sub_attach), called by both enable workfns once @sch is linked and its
sysfs-visible state is initialized. Prep so a future caps attribute can rely
on @sch being fully built by the time it's sysfs-visible. Add early enough
that a stall later in enable still leaves sysfs inspectable.

An overridden cid mapping invalidates the auto-generated shard layout, so
the override call has to provide both. Extend scx_bpf_cid_override() with a
shard_start[] array that lists the first cid of each shard (starting at 0,
strictly increasing, last shard implicitly extends to num_possible_cpus()).
A scheduler that wants only custom shards with the auto-generated cid
mapping can read the current mapping and pass it back unchanged.
Overridden shards can span NUMA nodes, so scx_shard_node[] is rebuilt by
majority count: each shard is assigned to the node that owns the most cpus
in it.
v2: Snapshot the caller's cpu_to_cid/shard_start arrays before validating. (sashiko AI)

Sub-sched operations need a scalable locking / work domain smaller than the
whole cid space. Carve the cid space into topology-respecting shards: each
shard is a contiguous cid range that stays within one LLC, and LLCs larger
than the per-shard cap (default 24 cids, configurable via
ops.cid_shard_size) split into enough shards to fit. A hard cap of
SCX_CID_SHARD_MAX_CPUS prevents pathological sizes under custom
configurations.
No-topo cids pack into their own shards so every cid has a shard assignment.
Also build scx_cid_shard_ranges[] for O(1) shard-to-cid-range lookup and
scx_shard_node[] so callers can size or place work by NUMA without walking
cids. Auto-built shards inherit their LLC's node. No-topo shards carry
NUMA_NO_NODE.

A cid-form scheduler that calls scx_bpf_cid_override() to install a custom
cid layout can only do so from ops.init(). Enable-path setup that depends on
the cid layout thus has to run after ops.init(), and ops.init() itself can't
use anything derived from the final layout, which turned out to be too
restrictive.
Add an ops.init_cids() callback dedicated to finalizing the cid layout. It
runs before the rest of the enable-path setup, so the final layout is in
effect for everything that follows including ops.init(), which now runs
after the arena pool and cmask scratch allocations.
scx_bpf_cid_override() is restricted to ops.init_cids() at load time. It
sits in a kfunc set gated by SCX_KF_ALLOW_INIT_CIDS, a flag set only on the
init_cids op, so the verifier rejects a call from any other context. The
runtime root-only check is dropped as ops.init_cids() only runs during root
enable.
The qmap demo moves its override into a dedicated qmap_init_cids() and,
while at it, introduces an enum for the cid override modes instead of
hard-coded integers.

The kick machinery kept its targets in rq->scx shared by every sched on the
cpu. A preempt kick carried no record of which scheduler requested it.
A later patch needs preempt kicks scoped to the requesting scheduler so a
sub-scheduler can preempt only tasks in its own subtree. Move the kick masks
into the per-sched per-cpu scx_sched_pcpu and have scx_kick_cpu() link the
sched onto a per-cpu list (rq->scx.sched_pcpus_to_kick). The cpu's single
kick irq_work walks that list and kicks each sched's targets on its behalf,
so a kick stays attributed to its scheduler.
The SCX_KICK_WAIT sync set (cpus_to_sync, the kick_sync snapshot and the
balance-callback trigger) stays in rq->scx: the waiter is the cpu, not the
scheduler, and its only writers, the kick irq_work and the wait balance
callback, are cpu-local.
On disable, free_kick_syncs() flushes each cpu's pending kick irq_work
before clearing @ksyncs, so a late kick unlinks its to_kick_node instead of
early-returning on a NULL @ksyncs and leaving the node linked at free.
v3: Flush the kick irq_work in free_kick_syncs() before clearing @ksyncs. (sashiko AI)

A per-task op must be dispatched on the scheduler that owns the task.
SCX_CALL_OP_TASK() and its _RET twin take @sch explicitly, and a caller that
passes the wrong scheduler would silently run the op on it. Add a
WARN_ON_ONCE() that @sch matches the task's owner so such a mismatch is
caught rather than hidden.
Two sites legitimately target a scheduler other than the task's owner:
cgroup_move() runs on the root sched, and scx_sub_init_cancel_task() fires
exit_task() on a task not yet associated with @sch. Both switch to the inner
__SCX_CALL_OP_TASK(), which dispatches on the explicit @sch without the
assert.

When switching a task's sched_class away from sched_ext, we get the
following sequence of events in __sched_setscheduler():
sched_change_begin()
switched_from_scx()
scx_disable_task(p)
ops.disable(p)
__setscheduler_params()
set_load_weight()
reweight_task_scx(p)
ops.set_weight(p)
p->sched_class = next_class;
sched_change_end()
...
Notably, ops.set_weight() is called _after_ ops.disable().
This violates the expected semantics of the callbacks, the expectation
being that ops.disable() can only be followed by ops.exit_task() or
ops.enable().
Skipping the weight adjustment for disabled tasks should be harmless
since the weight will be recalculated in scx_enable_task() if the task
ever rejoins SCX.

consume_remote_task() drops this_rq before unlinking a remote task from
its DSQ and locking src_rq. When called from ops.dispatch(),
scx_locked_rq() keeps pointing to this_rq across the lock dance. The
subsequent switch_rq_lock(src_rq, this_rq) cannot update the tracking
because its guard does not match, leaving the tracking stale while
src_rq is held.
Keep this_rq locked until the task has been unlinked and the DSQ lock
released, then use switch_rq_lock() to switch directly to src_rq. Use
the same helper to restore this_rq after losing the dequeue race. The
successful path already switches back through
move_remote_task_to_local_dsq(), so scx_locked_rq() now follows the
actually held rq throughout the consume path.

scx_bpf_kick_cid() returned an error code, but the value conveys nothing
actionable and no caller consumes it. The kick is asynchronous, so a
successful return only means it was queued. An invalid @cid is already
reported through scx_error() by scx_cid_to_cpu(), and a missing scheduler
leaves nothing to kick.

The cid-form ops overlay their cpu-form siblings at the same struct slot.
Ops whose signature matches the sibling are invoked through the cpu-form
call sites unchanged, but set_cmask() takes an arena cmask address rather
than a cpumask, so scx_call_op_set_cpumask() calls ops_cid.set_cmask()
directly and hand-rolled the kf_tasks[] and locked_rq bracket that
SCX_CALL_OP_TASK() provides. The hand-rolled bracket reset locked_rq to
NULL on exit instead of restoring the saved value, so a nested call would
clobber the outer op's locked-rq tracking.
Parameterize the dispatch macros by the ops-table member and add
SCX_CALL_CID_OP_TASK(), which routes through sch->ops_cid. Convert
scx_call_op_set_cpumask() to it and drop the hand-rolled bracket. The only

scx_alloc_and_add_sched() publishes @sch through ops->priv before allocating
the cgroup path. If that allocation fails, the unwind path clears ops->priv
and frees @sch immediately. scx_prog_sched() callers can dereference
ops->priv from RCU context the moment it is set, so freeing without a grace
period can use-after-free a concurrent kfunc caller.
Move the publication below the cgroup path allocation so that every failure

set_next_task_scx() updates the tick dependency before __schedule()
updates rq->curr. When switching from a non-EXT task, such as idle, to
an EXT task with a finite slice, sched_update_tick_dependency() checks
the outgoing task and can allow the tick to remain stopped.
The dependency can also be lost without a slice-type transition. After a
finite-slice task leaves the CPU idle, the enqueue path can clear the
dependency against the idle rq->curr. SCX_RQ_CAN_STOP_TICK still records
a finite slice, so another finite task skips the transition block and
can run without the ticks needed to expire its slice.
The reverse mismatch can also happen when the last finite-slice EXT task
is dequeued: sub_nr_running() updates the dependency before rq->curr
changes, so the outgoing task state can keep the dependency set after
the CPU goes idle.
Fix this by unconditionally enabling the scheduler tick whenever a
finite-slice EXT task is selected on a nohz_full CPU. Moreover, when the
last runnable EXT task leaves, ignore the outgoing EXT slice state so
the generic scheduler can correctly re-evaluate and clear the tick
dependency.

with ENQ_LAST unset.
Gate the warning on sched_cpu_cookie_match(): a cookie mismatch means core
scheduling forced the idle, while a match (or core scheduling off) still

task_can_run_on_remote_rq() operates under the assumption that
p->migration_disabled is stable, i.e. if the kernel observed
is_migration_disabled(p) == true, then the BPF scheduler must have also
been able to see this when dispatching the task, and it's the BPF
scheduler's fault that it tried to dispatch a task with migration
disabled to a CPU other than the task's current CPU.
This assumption does not always hold. It's possible that the BPF
scheduler saw is_migration_disabled(p) == false, while the kernel
observes is_migration_disabled(p) == true in dispatch_to_local_dsq()
-> task_can_run_on_remote_rq().
The crucial thing here is that with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU, migration is
disabled while a task is executing a BPF program. So, if there's a
situation where the BPF scheduler checks a task while it's not executing
a BPF program, while the kernel checks it while it is executing one,
the BPF scheduler will be killed through no fault of its own.
Consider the following scenario:
1. SCX task @p is executing on CPU A and CPU A gets preempted by a
higher-priority scheduling class. On entry to __schedule(),
p->migration_disabled == 0.
2. In put_prev_task_scx() @p is enqueued on the BPF scheduler's internal
data structures, making it available for other CPUs to dispatch.
3. CPU B enters ops.dispatch(), pops @p from the BPF scheduler's data
structures, checks is_migration_disabled(p) which returns false,
and dispatches @p to CPU B's local DSQ.
4. On CPU A, @p hasn't been switched out yet. Execution reaches
trace_sched_switch() which enters a BPF program, as the BPF scheduler
hooks into the sched_switch tracepoint to detect idle->fair
transitions. On entry into the BPF program, @p disables migration.
5. CPU B enters finish_dispatch() -> dispatch_to_local_dsq() ->
task_can_run_on_remote_rq() which observes
is_migration_disabled(p) == true, triggering scx_error().
This all happens while holding CPU B's rq lock, so it's not
synchronized with @p switching out.
This patch fixes this by moving the call to task_can_run_on_remote_rq()
after @p's rq lock is acquired in dispatch_to_local_dsq(). This way, we
synchronize with @p switching out, since @p holds its rq lock all
the way until it's switched out. Thus, any BPF programs that are called
between put_prev_task_scx() and the end of the context switch are
guaranteed to have finished and cannot influence p->migration_disabled.
Also add a lockdep assertion in task_can_run_on_remote_rq() which
ensures the task rq lock is held if enforce == true.

When a task leaves the BPF scheduler's control, p->scx.dsq_vtime and
p->scx.slice keep whatever values they last held. The slice value is
core-managed and is refilled on the next enqueue, but dsq_vtime is owned
by the BPF scheduler and is never cleared by the core, so a task that
leaves SCX and later returns carries a stale dsq_vtime across the
round-trip.
The stale values are also visible to other SCX schedulers that inspect
the scx fields of non-SCX tasks.
Fix this by resetting both dsq_vtime and slice in scx_disable_task(),
after ops.disable(), so the BPF scheduler can still observe the task's
final values and non-SCX tasks do not retain stale SCX state.

The deprecation notices for direct p->scx.slice/dsq_vtime writes and for
ops->cpu_acquire/release() use plain pr_warn(), so they repeat on every
scheduler (re)load and can flood the kernel log.
The slice/dsq_vtime notice is the worst offender: it is emitted from the
BPF verifier's btf_struct_access callback, which is re-evaluated as the
verifier explores program paths, so a single scheduler load can print it
many times -- hundreds of lines on some hosts, dozens within the same
second.
Switch both notices to pr_warn_ratelimited() so each deprecation is still
reported but bursts no longer spam the log, and add the missing newline
to the slice/dsq_vtime message.

idle.c and cid.c are included into build_policy.c together with ext.c and
use helpers that ext.c defines. Because the helpers live in ext.c, the two
files can not parse as standalone units and clangd reports errors in them.
Move the helpers to the headers they belong to. The op-dispatch macros and
helpers plus scx_parent() to internal.h, and scx_cpu_arg()/scx_cpu_ret() to
cid.h. No functional change. idle.c and cid.c now parse clean standalone.

The sources under kernel/sched/ext/ build as a single translation unit:
build_policy.c includes the source files and headers. An LSP/clangd editor
parses each as a standalone unit, sees no types, and reports a flood of
errors.
Give each header its dependencies and include guard, and have each source
include the headers it uses.
ext.c, arena.c and the ext headers now parse clean standalone. idle.c and
cid.c still reference a few macros and helpers defined in ext.c. The next
patch moves those to shared headers.

The sched_ext sources had grown to ten ext* files directly under
kernel/sched/. Move them into a new kernel/sched/ext/ subdirectory and drop
the now-redundant ext_ prefix. ext.c/h keep their names.
kernel/sched/ext.{c,h} -> kernel/sched/ext/ext.{c,h}
kernel/sched/ext_internal.h -> kernel/sched/ext/internal.h
kernel/sched/ext_types.h -> kernel/sched/ext/types.h
kernel/sched/ext_idle.{c,h} -> kernel/sched/ext/idle.{c,h}
kernel/sched/ext_cid.{c,h} -> kernel/sched/ext/cid.{c,h}
kernel/sched/ext_arena.{c,h} -> kernel/sched/ext/arena.{c,h}
The include paths in build_policy.c and sched.h, the MAINTAINERS glob, and a
few documentation and comment references are updated to match. No code or
symbol changes.
