Package name : scx Version : 1.2 Upstream Author : Andrea Righi <[email protected]> URL : https://github.com/sched-ext/scx License : GPL-2 Programming Lang: Rust and C Description : sched_ext kernel schedulers and tooling sched_ext is a Linux kernel feature that enables implementing CPU schedulers using BPF programs that can be dynamically loaded at runtime. This allows safe and rapid iteration on scheduling policies without requiring kernel rebuilds. The scx project provides a collection of sched_ext-based schedulers, along with user-space tooling and libraries to manage, load, and experiment with them. The user-space components are primarily written in Rust, while the kernel-side scheduler logic is implemented in C via BPF. The core sched_ext infrastructure is available in the upstream Linux kernel starting with version 6.12. I am looking for a volunteer to maintain the scx package in Debian. An existing Debian packaging effort is available and can be used as a starting point: https://github.com/sched-ext/scx/tree/deb-packaging If you are interested in maintaining this package, or have questions about the upstream project or packaging status, please feel free to reach out. Thanks, -Andrea
