Sched_ext Scheduler Idle Selection Being Extended For LLC & NUMA Awareness
28 October 2024 - sched_ext NUMA Awareness

While the sched_ext extensible scheduler code was merged for Linux 6.12, work on sched_ext itself it is not over. New patches this weekend continue working on NUMA awareness for it with its default idle selection policy while similar work on CPU last level cache (LLC) awareness are slated for the upcoming Linux 6.13 cycle.

#Phoronix #LinuxKernel

很多人不知道的是，为了将Melt顺利安装到你的设备，以及兼容足够多的rom，以及为用户提供丰富的可定制功能，我们在修改AnyKernel3安装程序上的工作量一点也不比开发内核本身要少。

What many people don’t know is that in order to successfully install Melt on your device, be compatible with enough ROMs, and provide users with rich customizable features, the amount of work we put into modifying the AnyKernel3 installer is no less than developing the kernel itself.

让我随便举几个例子：
1. Melt Kernel会替换vendor_dlkm分区的内核模块，但用户的vendor_dlkm分区可能是erofs，也有可能是ext4。对于ext4，还需要考虑分区剩余空间是否足够。由于vendor_dlkm分区是super设备下的逻辑分区，因此必要时还需要调用AnyKernel3内置的lptools_static调整该逻辑分区的大小，但也有可能因为各种奇怪的原因调整失败。
2. Melt Kernel同时也会替换vendor_boot分区的内核模块，但是由于旧版本的Melt Kernel内置的magiskboot不能正确处理vendor_boot分区的vendor_ramdisk，因此在安装或更新Melt Kernel的过程中可能会遇到"Splitting image failed"错误或者卡死（某些做官改rom的团队或rom修改工具也仍然在使用旧版本的magiskboot，同样也会导致问题）。为了避免给用户带来麻烦，v3.3版本已经尝试在安装过程中检测并修复。
3. 自v3.3开始，为了保持最佳的兼容性，Melt Kernel会同时替换安装dtb和dtbo。但很多用户喜欢用Konabess对GPU进行超频+降压，直接替换dtb的结果就是用户的GPU超频和降压配置会丢失。因此，Melt又通过大量的代码实现了在安装过程中拷贝用户现有的GPU超频和降压配置到新的dtb。

很多你看不到的背后，都是无数次的试错，以及巨大的工作量。
