f0c6eab5e45c529f449fbc595873719e00de6d79 upstream.
A BPF scheduler may want to use the built-in idle cpumasks in ops.init()
before the scheduler is fully initialized, either directly or through a
BPF timer for example.
However, this would result in an error, since the idle state has not
been properly initialized yet.
This can be easily verified by modifying scx_simple to call
scx_bpf_get_idle_cpumask() in ops.init():
$ sudo scx_simple
DEBUG DUMP
===========================================================================
scx_simple[121] triggered exit kind 1024:
runtime error (built-in idle tracking is disabled)
...
Fix this by properly initializing the idle state before ops.init() is
called. With this change applied:
$ sudo scx_simple
local=2 global=0
local=19 global=11
local=23 global=11
...

[ Backport to 6.12:
- Original commit doesn't apply cleanly to 6.12 since
d73249f88743d is
not present.
- This backport applies the same logical fix to prevent BPF scheduler
failures while accessing idle cpumasks from ops.init(). ]
