[$] Improved load balancing with machine learning
The extensible scheduler class("sched_ext") allows the loading of a custom CPU scheduler into the kernelas a set of BPF functions; it was merged for the 6.12 kernel release.Since then, sched_ext has enabled a wide range of experimentation withscheduling algorithms. At the 2025 OpenSource Summit North America, Ching-Chun ("Jim") Huang presented workthat has been done to apply (local) machine learning to the problem ofscheduling processes on complex systems.
