Linus Torvalds bcb044256d sched_ext: Changes for v6.15
- Add mechanism to count and report internal events. This significantly
   improves visibility on subtle corner conditions.
 
 - The default idle CPU selection logic is revamped and improved in multiple
   ways including being made topology aware.
 
 - sched_ext was disabling ttwu_queue for simplicity, which can be costly
   when hardware topology is more complex. Implement
   SCX_OPS_ALLOWED_QUEUED_WAKEUP so that BPF schedulers can selectively
   enable ttwu_queue.
 
 - tools/sched_ext updates to improve compatibility among others.
 
 - Other misc updates and fixes.
 
 - sched_ext/for-6.14-fixes were pulled a few times to receive prerequisite
   fixes and resolve conflicts.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
