      alarmtimer: Add tracepoints for alarm timers · 4a057549
      Baolin Wang authored
      Alarm timers are one of the mechanisms to wake up a system from suspend,
      but there exist no tracepoints to analyse which process/thread armed an
      alarmtimer.
      
      Add tracepoints for start/cancel/expire of individual alarm timers and one
      for tracing the suspend time decision when to resume the system.
      
      The following trace excerpt illustrates the new mechanism:
      
      Binder:3292_2-3304  [000] d..2   149.981123: alarmtimer_cancel:

      The wakeup time which is selected at suspend time allows to map it back to
      the task arming the timer: Binder:3292_2.
      
      [ tglx: Store alarm timer expiry time instead of some useless RTC relative

        	handled via the clock_nanosleep/freezer and massage the changelog. ]

      timers: Fix documentation for schedule_timeout() and similar · 4b7e9cf9
      Douglas Anderson authored
      The documentation for schedule_timeout(), schedule_hrtimeout(), and
      schedule_hrtimeout_range() all claim that the routines couldn't possibly
      return early if the task state was TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. This is simply
      not true since wake_up_process() will cause those routines to exit early.
      
      We cannot make schedule_[hr]timeout() loop until the timeout expires if the
      task state is uninterruptible because we have users which rely on the
      existing and designed behaviour.
      
      Make the documentation match the (correct) implementation.
      
      schedule_hrtimeout() returns -EINTR even when a uninterruptible task was
      woken up. This might look strange, but making the return code depend on the
      state is too much of an effort as it would affect all the call sites. There
      is no value in doing so, but we spell it out clearly in the documentation.

      timers: Fix usleep_range() in the context of wake_up_process() · 6c5e9059
      Douglas Anderson authored
      Users of usleep_range() expect that it will _never_ return in less time
      than the minimum passed parameter. However, nothing in the code ensures
      this, when the sleeping task is woken by wake_up_process() or any other
      mechanism which can wake a task from uninterruptible state.
      
      Neither usleep_range() nor schedule_hrtimeout_range*() have any protection
      against wakeups. schedule_hrtimeout_range*() is designed this way despite
      the fact that the API documentation does not mention it.
      
      msleep() already has code to handle this case since it will loop as long
      as there was still time left.  usleep_range() has no such loop, add it.
      
      Presumably this problem was not detected before because usleep_range() is
      only used in a few places and the function is mostly used in contexts which
      are not exposed to wakeups of any form.
      
      An effort was made to look for users relying on the old behavior by
      looking for usleep_range() in the same file as wake_up_process().
      No problems were found by this search, though it is conceivable that
      someone could have put the sleep and wakeup in two different files.
      
      An effort was made to ask several upstream maintainers if they were aware
      of people relying on wake_up_process() to wake up usleep_range(). No
      maintainers were aware of that but they were aware of many people relying
      on usleep_range() never returning before the minimum.
