The rq_lock() is supposed to be used\nfor online CPUs, and the use of rq_lock() may trigger an unnecessary\nwarning in rq_pin_lock(). Therefore, replace rq_lock() to\nraw_spin_rq_lock() in scx_ops_bypass().\n\nWithout this change, we observe the following warning:\n\n===== START =====\n[ 6.615205] rq->balance_callback && rq->balance_callback != &balance_push_callback\n[ 6.615208] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/sched.h:1730 __schedule+0x1130/0x1c90\n===== END =====" } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "kernel/sched/ext.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "0e7ffff1b8117b05635c87d3c9099f6aa9c9b689", "lessThan": "d9e446dd63cee7161717a6a8414ba9c6435af764", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "0e7ffff1b8117b05635c87d3c9099f6aa9c9b689", "lessThan": "6268d5bc10354fc2ab8d44a0cd3b042d49a0417e", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "kernel/sched/ext.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.12", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.12", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.10", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.13", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.12", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.10" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.12", "versionEndExcluding": "6.13" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d9e446dd63cee7161717a6a8414ba9c6435af764" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6268d5bc10354fc2ab8d44a0cd3b042d49a0417e" } ], "title": "sched_ext: Replace rq_lock() to raw_spin_rq_lock() in scx_ops_bypass()", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
