scx_bpf_cidperf_set(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, this is scx_bpf_cidperf_set(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it is literally here to “Set the performance target of the CPU at @cid” ✨

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

__bpf_kfunc s32 scx_bpf_cidperf_set (s32 cid , u32 perf , const struct bpf_prog_aux *aux );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• cid — cid of the CPU to target 👀
• perf — target performance level [0, SCX_CPUPERF_ONE] ⚡
• aux — implicit BPF argument to access bpf_prog_aux, hidden from BPF progs 🫣

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This is the cid-addressed equivalent of scx_bpf_cpuperf_set — literally its twin, fr fr.

A sub-sched needs SCX_CAP_PERF on cid. That is the vibe check ✅

Returns 0 if the target was applied, -EACCES if the write was denied for missing caps, and other -errnos if cid didn’t resolve. So yes, the return value is giving “did it work or did permissions say absolutely not” 😭
