    [$] Sched-ext: enqueue() for sub-schedulers and proxy-execution support

    Date:
    Thu, 16 Jul 2026 14:00:05 +0000

    Description:
    The extensible
    scheduler class (sched_ext) allows the installation of custom CPU
    schedulers as a set of BPF programs. While sched_ext, in its current form,
    has already led to a lot of interesting scheduler-development work, the subsystem itself is still undergoing rapid evolution. Among other work,
    the ability to set up a hierarchy of sub-schedulers is approaching
    completion, and
    a longstanding incompatibility with proxy
    execution is coming to an end.
