Andrea RighiandTejun Heo 3788e32516 selftests/sched_ext: Fix build error in dequeue selftest
Building the dequeue selftest with newer compilers (e.g., gcc 16)
triggers the following error:

 dequeue.c:28:22: error: variable 'sum' set but not used

The 'volatile' qualifier prevents the writes from being optimized away,
but does not silence the unused variable 'sum' is indeed only written
and never read.

Consume 'sum' via an empty asm() with a register input constraint. This
forces the compiler to keep the accumulated value (preserving the CPU
stress loop) and avoiding the build error.

Verify that the BPF verifier rejects a non-SCX struct_ops program
(tcp_congestion_ops) that attempts to call an SCX kfunc (scx_bpf_kick_cpu).
The test expects the load to fail with -EACCES from scx_kfunc_context_filter.

Report an error for './runner foo' (positional arg instead of -t) and
for './runner -t foo' when the filter matches no tests. Previously both
cases produced no error output.

Pre-scan the test list before the main loop so the error is reported
immediately, avoiding spurious SKIP output from '-s' when no tests
match.

Add a test that creates a 3-CPU kick_wait cycle (A->B->C->A). A BPF
scheduler kicks the next CPU in the ring with SCX_KICK_WAIT on every
enqueue while userspace workers generate continuous scheduling churn via

Cheng-Yang ChouandTejun Heo 7ef26d62f3 selftests/sched_ext: Skip rt_stall on older kernels and list skipped tests
rt_stall tests the ext DL server which was introduced in commit
cd959a3562 ("sched_ext: Add a DL server for sched_ext tasks").
On older kernels that lack this feature, the test calls ksft_exit_fail()
internally which terminates the entire runner process, preventing
subsequent tests from running.

Add a guard in setup() that checks for the ext_server field in struct rq
via __COMPAT_struct_has_field() and returns SCX_TEST_SKIP if not present.

Also print the names of skipped tests in the results summary, mirroring
the existing behavior for failed tests.

zhidao suandTejun Heo c50dcf5331 selftests/sched_ext: Add tests for SCX_ENQ_IMMED and scx_bpf_dsq_reenq()
Add three selftests covering features introduced in v7.1:

- dsq_reenq: Verify scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() on user DSQs triggers
  ops.enqueue() with SCX_ENQ_REENQ and SCX_TASK_REENQ_KFUNC in
  p->scx.flags.

- enq_immed: Verify SCX_OPS_ALWAYS_ENQ_IMMED slow path where tasks
  dispatched to a busy CPU's local DSQ are re-enqueued through
  ops.enqueue() with SCX_TASK_REENQ_IMMED.

- consume_immed: Verify SCX_ENQ_IMMED via the consume path using
  scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local___v2() with explicit SCX_ENQ_IMMED.

All three tests skip gracefully on kernels that predate the required
features by checking availability via __COMPAT_has_ksym() /
__COMPAT_read_enum() before loading.

runner.c always returned 0 regardless of test results.  The kselftest
framework (tools/testing/selftests/kselftest/runner.sh) invokes the runner
binary and treats a non-zero exit code as a test failure; with the old
code, failed sched_ext tests were silently hidden from the parent harness
even though individual "not ok" TAP lines were emitted.

Return 1 when at least one test failed, 0 when all tests passed or were
skipped.

Cheng-Yang ChouandTejun Heo f96bc0fa92 sched_ext: Update selftests to drop ops.cpu_acquire/release()
ops.cpu_acquire/release() are deprecated by commit a3f5d48222
("sched_ext: Allow scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to be called from
anywhere") in favor of handling CPU preemption via the sched_switch
tracepoint.

In the maximal selftest, replace the cpu_acquire/release stubs with a
minimal sched_switch TP program. Attach all non-struct_ops programs
(including the new TP) via maximal__attach() after disabling auto-attach
for the maximal_ops struct_ops map, which is managed manually in run().

Apply the same fix to reload_loop, which also uses the maximal skeleton.

After digging, it's not a compiler error, clang supported Signed division
only when using -mcpu=v4, while we use -mcpu=v3 currently, the better way
is to use unsigned div, see [1] for details.

Andrea RighiandTejun Heo 658ad2259b selftests/sched_ext: Add test to validate ops.dequeue() semantics
Add a new kselftest to validate that the new ops.dequeue() semantics
work correctly for all task lifecycle scenarios, including the
distinction between terminal DSQs (where BPF scheduler is done with the
task), user DSQs (where BPF scheduler manages the task lifecycle) and
BPF data structures, regardless of which event performs the dispatch.

The test validates the following scenarios:

 - From ops.select_cpu():
     - scenario 0 (local DSQ): tasks dispatched to the local DSQ bypass
       the BPF scheduler entirely; they never enter BPF custody, so
       ops.dequeue() is not called,
     - scenario 1 (global DSQ): tasks dispatched to SCX_DSQ_GLOBAL also
       bypass the BPF scheduler, like the local DSQ; ops.dequeue() is
       not called,
     - scenario 2 (user DSQ): tasks dispatched to user DSQs from
       ops.select_cpu(): tasks enter BPF scheduler's custody with full
       enqueue/dequeue lifecycle tracking and state machine validation,
       expects 1:1 enqueue/dequeue pairing,

   - From ops.enqueue():
     - scenario 3 (local DSQ): same behavior as scenario 0,
     - scenario 4 (global DSQ): same behavior as scenario 1,
     - scenario 5 (user DSQ): same behavior as scenario 2,
     - scenario 6 (BPF internal queue): tasks are stored in a BPF queue
       from ops.enqueue() and consumed from ops.dispatch(); similarly to
       scenario 5, tasks enter BPF scheduler's custody with full
       lifecycle tracking and 1:1 enqueue/dequeue validation.

This verifies that:
 - terminal DSQ dispatch (local, global) don't trigger ops.dequeue(),
 - tasks dispatched to user DSQs, either from ops.select_cpu() or
   ops.enqueue(), enter BPF scheduler's custody and have exact 1:1
   enqueue/dequeue pairing,
 - tasks stored to internal BPF data structures from ops.enqueue() enter
   BPF scheduler's custody and have exact 1:1 enqueue/dequeue pairing,
 - dispatch dequeues have no flags (normal workflow),
 - property change dequeues have the %SCX_DEQ_SCHED_CHANGE flag set,
 - no duplicate enqueues or invalid state transitions are happening.
