[PATCH] tools/sched_ext: scx_pair: fix stride == 0 crash on single-CPU systems
Posted by David Carlier 1 month, 2 weeks ago
nr_cpu_ids / 2 produces stride 0 on a single-CPU system, which later
causes SCX_BUG_ON(i == j) to fire. Validate stride after option
parsing to also catch invalid user-supplied values via -S.

Applied to sched_ext/for-7.0-fixes.

Thanks.
