From eff782fddb5cb03c247fdb68b148abfd30cda1fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 07:58:04 -1000 Subject: [PATCH] sched_ext: Convert scx_dump_state() spinlock to raw spinlock The scx_dump_state() function uses a regular spinlock to serialize access. In a subsequent patch, this function will be called while holding scx_sched_lock, which is a raw spinlock, creating a lock nesting violation. Convert the dump_lock to a raw spinlock and use the guard macro for cleaner lock management.
