From cd9626e9ebc77edec33023fe95dab4b04ffc819d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2024 11:38:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Fix external p->on_rq users Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started mis-classifying preemption vs blocking. Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and should be considered blocked for many cases. Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.
