[PATCH v3 4/5] sched: Add task enqueue/dequeue trace points

From: Nam Cao <hidden>
Date: 2025-08-11 08:41:02
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: scheduler, the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Ingo Molnar, Peter Zijlstra, Juri Lelli, Vincent Guittot, Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

Add trace points into enqueue_task() and dequeue_task(). They are useful to
implement RV monitor which validates RT scheduling.

v3: fix up build issue on !SMP
v2: Move the tracepoints to cover all task enqueue/dequeue, not just RT
