Merge branch 'fortglx/4.12/time' of https://git.linaro.org/people/john.stultz/linux into timers/core Merge timer updates from John Stultz: A preparatory patch series for correcting the clock event devices via NTP to avoid early timer expiry and reprogramming.

In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware, all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant. Currently, the x86's uv rtc clockevent device is initialized as follows: clock_event_device_uv.min_delta_ns = NSEC_PER_SEC / sn_rtc_cycles_per_second; clock_event_device_uv.max_delta_ns = clocksource_uv.mask * (NSEC_PER_SEC / sn_rtc_cycles_per_second); This translates to a ->min_delta_ticks value of 1 and a ->max_delta_ticks value of clocksource_uv.mask. Initialize ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks with these values respectively. This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this driver.

Currently, the tile's timer clockevent device is initialized as follows: evt->max_delta_ns = clockevent_delta2ns(MAX_TICK, evt); and .min_delta_ns = 1000, The first one translates to a ->max_delta_ticks value of MAX_TICK. For the latter, note that the clockevent core will superimpose a minimum of 1us by itself -- setting ->min_delta_ticks to 1 is safe here. Initialize ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks with these values. This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns.

Currently, the s390's CPU timer clockevent device is initialized as follows: cd->min_delta_ns = 1; cd->max_delta_ns = LONG_MAX; Note that the device's time to cycle conversion factor, i.e. cd->mult / (2^cd->shift), is approx. equal to 4. Hence, this would translate to cd->min_delta_ticks = 4; cd->max_delta_ticks = 4 * LONG_MAX; However, a minimum value of 1ns is in the range of noise anyway and the clockevent core will take care of this by increasing it to 1us or so. Furthermore, 4*LONG_MAX would overflow the unsigned long argument the clockevent devices gets programmed with. Thus, initialize ->min_delta_ticks with 1 and ->max_delta_ticks with ULONG_MAX. This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this driver.

As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this driver.

struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit machines. Replace uses of struct timespec with struct timespec64 in the kernel. The syscall interfaces themselves will be changed in a separate series. Note that the restart_block parameter for nanosleep has also been left unchanged and will be part of syscall series noted above. Signed-off-by:

On systems with a large number of CPUs, running sysrq-<q> can cause watchdog timeouts. There are two slow sections of code in the sysrq-<q> path in timer_list.c. 1. print_active_timers() - This function is called by print_cpu() and contains a slow goto loop. On a machine with hundreds of CPUs, this loop took approximately 100ms for the first CPU in a NUMA node. (Subsequent CPUs in the same node ran much quicker.) The total time to print all of the CPUs is ultimately long enough to trigger the soft lockup watchdog. 2. print_tickdevice() - This function outputs a large amount of textual information. This function also took approximately 100ms per CPU. Since sysrq-<q> is not a performance critical path, there should be no harm in touching the nmi watchdog in both slow sections above. Touching it in just one location was insufficient on systems with hundreds of CPUs as occasional timeouts were still observed during testing. This issue was observed on an Oracle T7 machine with 128 CPUs, but I anticipate it may affect other systems with similarly large numbers of CPUs. Signed-off-by:

The scheduler clock framework may not use the correct timeout for the clock wrap. This happens when a new clock driver calls sched_clock_register() after the kernel called sched_clock_postinit(). In this case the clock wrap timeout is too long thus sched_clock_poll() is called too late and the clock already wrapped. On my ARM system the scheduler was no longer scheduling any other task than the idle task because the sched_clock() wrapped. Signed-off-by:

A clockevent device's rate should be configured before or at registration and changed afterwards through clockevents_update_freq() only. For the configuration at registration, we already have clockevents_config_and_register(). Right now, there are no clockevents_config() users outside of the clockevents core. To mitigiate the risk of drivers errorneously reconfiguring their rates through clockevents_config() *after* device registration, make clockevents_config() static. Signed-off-by:

With the upcoming NTP correction related rate adjustments to be implemented in the clockevents core, the latter needs to get informed about every rate change of a clockevent device made after its registration. Currently, h8300_timer8 violates this requirement in that it registers its clockevent device with the correct rate, but resets its ->mult and ->rate values in timer8_clock_event_start(), called from its ->set_state_oneshot() function. It seems like commit 4633f4ca ("clocksource/drivers/h8300: Cleanup startup and remove module code."), which introduced the rate initialization at registration, missed to remove the manual setting of ->mult and ->shift from timer8_clock_event_start(). Purge the setting of ->mult, ->shift, ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from timer8_clock_event_start(). Signed-off-by:

With the upcoming NTP correction related rate adjustments to be implemented in the clockevents core, the latter needs to get informed about every rate change of a clockevent device made after its registration. Currently, em_sti violates this requirement in that it registers its clockevent device with a dummy rate and sets its final rate through clockevents_config() called from its ->set_state_oneshot(). This patch moves the setting of the clockevent device's rate to its registration. I checked all current em_sti users in arch/arm/mach-shmobile and right now, none of them changes any rate in any clock tree relevant to em_sti after their respective time_init(). Since all em_sti instances are created after time_init(), none of them should ever observe any clock rate changes. - Determine the ->rate value in em_sti_probe() at device probing rather than at first usage. - Set the clockevent device's rate at its registration. - Although not strictly necessary for the upcoming clockevent core changes, set the clocksource's rate at its registration for consistency.

Currently, the em_sti driver prepares and enables the needed clock in em_sti_enable(), potentially called through its clockevent device's ->set_state_oneshot(). However, the clk_prepare() step may sleep whereas tick_program_event() and thus, ->set_state_oneshot(), can be called in atomic context. Split the clk_prepare_enable() in em_sti_enable() into two steps: - prepare the clock at device probing via clk_prepare() - and enable it in em_sti_enable() via clk_enable(). Slightly reorder resource initialization in em_sti_probe() in order to facilitate error handling in later patches. Signed-off-by:

With the upcoming NTP correction related rate adjustments to be implemented in the clockevents core, the latter needs to get informed about every rate change of a clockevent device made after its registration. Currently, sh_tmu violates this requirement in that it registers its clockevent device with a dummy rate and sets its final rate through clockevents_config() called from its ->set_state_oneshot() and ->set_state_periodic() functions respectively. This patch moves the setting of the clockevent device's rate to its registration. Note that there has been some back and forth regarding this question with respect to the clocksource also provided by this driver: commit 66f49121 ("clocksource: sh_tmu: compute mult and shift before registration") moves the rate determination from the clocksource's ->enable() function to before its registration. OTOH, the later commit 0aeac458 ("clocksource: sh_tmu: __clocksource_updatefreq_hz() update") basically reverts this, saying "Without this patch the old code uses clocksource_register() together with a hack that assumes a never changing clock rate." However, I checked all current sh_tmu users in arch/sh as well as in arch/arm/mach-shmobile carefully and right now, none of them changes any rate in any clock tree relevant to sh_tmu after their respective time_init(). Since all sh_tmu instances are created after time_init(), none of them should ever observe any clock rate changes. What's more, both, a clocksource as well as a clockevent device, can immediately get selected for use at their registration and thus, enabled at this point already. So it's probably safer to assume a "never changing clock rate" here. - Move the struct sh_tmu_channel's ->rate member to struct sh_tmu_device: it's a property of the underlying clock which is in turn specific to the sh_tmu_device. - Determine the ->rate value in sh_tmu_setup() at device probing rather than at first usage. - Set the clockevent device's rate at its registration. - Although not strictly necessary for the upcoming clockevent core changes, set the clocksource's rate at its registration for consistency.
