SchedCP

SchedCP is an AI-driven control-plane for the Linux kernel: a lightweight management daemon plus an eBPF-/MCP-based server that watches live workload signals (perf, DAMON, energy, sched_ext events) and allow your AI Agents like claude-code to learns how to tweak schedulers, sysctls and other kernel knobs in real time.

Quick Start

# Build all components
make

# Run a scheduler with SchedCP
./scheduler/sche_bin/scx_rusty --slice-us 20000

# Monitor performance
./scheduler/tools/scxtop

Architecture

SchedCP combines multiple technologies to create an intelligent kernel control system:

• eBPF/sched_ext: Runtime kernel programmability for schedulers and monitoring
• MCP (Model Context Protocol): AI-driven policy decisions based on system state
• Real-time telemetry: Performance counters, DAMON memory stats, energy monitoring
• Adaptive control loops: Observe � Decide � Apply � Verify

Key Features

• Auto-tuning schedulers: Dynamically adjust scheduler parameters based on workload
• Sysctl optimization: Automatic kernel parameter tuning without manual configuration
• Energy awareness: Balance performance with power consumption goals
• Multi-workload support: From interactive desktops to batch processing clusters
• Safety mechanisms: A/B testing, rollback, and verification for all changes
