- Plug a race between pick_next_task_fair() and try_to_wake_up() where
both try to write to the same task, even though both paths hold a
runqueue lock, but obviously from different runqueues.
The problem is that the store to task::on_rq in __block_task() is
visible to try_to_wake_up() which assumes that the task is not queued.
Both sides then operate on the same task.
Cure it by rearranging __block_task() so the the store to task::on_rq is
the last operation on the task.
- Prevent a potential NULL pointer dereference in task_numa_work()
task_numa_work() iterates the VMAs of a process. A concurrent unmap of
the address space can result in a NULL pointer return from vma_next()
which is unchecked.
Add the missing NULL pointer check to prevent this.
- Operate on the correct scheduler policy in task_should_scx()
task_should_scx() returns true when a task should be handled by sched
EXT. It checks the tasks scheduling policy.
This fails when the check is done before a policy has been set.
Cure it by handing the policy into task_should_scx() so it operates
on the requested value.
- Add the missing handling of sched EXT in the delayed dequeue
mechanism. This was simply forgotten.
