In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Call wakeup_preempt() for queued tasks during class change
Paul reported recent RCU changes exposed a lost resched where CPU idles with a rcutorture thread waiting while being completely runnable.
Dumping the rq state at the time of idling with runnable tasks showed the following:
rq->next_class = &fair_sched_class rq->nr_running = 1 rq->cfs.h_nr_queued = 0 rq->rt.rt_nr_running = 1
Although the waiting task was an RT task, "rq->next_class" did not point to rt_sched_class and was stuck at the lower priority fair_sched_class.
Inspecting sched_change_end() revealed the following race with __sched_setscheduler() for queued, but non-running tasks:
__schedule()

!!! rq->idle switches in with rq->running == 1 but !need_resched() !!!
In simple words, enqueue, followed by a class change of the newly queued task goes unnoticed in rq->next_class indicator and sched_balance_newidle() sees no fair task, nor any higher priority task enqueued.
The above sequence will lead to CPU idling with a runnable task on the CPU.
Call wakeup_preempt() for ctx->queued cases in sched_change_end() to re-evaluate rq->next_class after class change (ENQUEUE_CLASS) and set the NEED_RESCHED indicator accordingly.
Newidle balance will correctly see an enqueue of a higher priority t ---truncated---
