scx_bpf_dsq_move_set_vtime(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so this page is scx_bpf_dsq_move_set_vtime(9), from the Kernel API Manual, and the whole assignment is: Override vtime when moving between DSQs. That's the vibe. That's the task. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

__bpf_kfunc void scx_bpf_dsq_move_set_vtime (struct bpf_iter_scx_dsq
*it__iter , u64 vtime );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• it__iter — the DSQ iterator that's currently in progress. Like, it's mid-iteration, bestie.
• vtime — the task's ordering inside the vtime-sorted queue of the target DSQ. It's the task's little position in that queue's whole ordering situation.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This kfunc overrides the vtime of the next task that will be moved from it__iter using scx_bpf_dsq_move_vtime.

If this function is not called, then no override happens — the previous slice vtime is kept.

And listen, because this part matters: if scx_bpf_dsq_move is used to dispatch the next task, the override is ignored and cleared. So it does not carry over. It's gone. Periodt. 💀
