Sched_Ext Boasts CPU Selection Improvements In Linux 6.16
One of the niftiest kernel innovations to be upstreamed into Linux over the past year was sched_ext for extensible scheduler behavior in allowing kernel schedulers to be implemented via BPG programs
Sched_ext can allow for interesting scheduler improvements with a variety of use-cases and showed much potential even before being upstreamed. - A bunch of reorganization changes to lay the foundation for multiple hierarchical scheduler support. We are just getting started in realizing all the possibilities afforded to Linux by sched_ext so it will be very interesting to see what more innovations come around this extensible scheduler class over the months or perhaps even year(s) ahead.
