Add driver for Microchip PIT64B timer. Timer could be used in continuous mode or oneshot mode. The hardware has 2x32 bit registers for period emulating a 64 bit timer. The LSB_PR and MSB_PR registers are used to set the period value (compare value). TLSB and TMSB keeps the current value of the counter. After a compare the TLSB and TMSB register resets. The driver uses PIT64B timer for clocksource or clockevent. First requested timer would be registered as clockevent, second one would be registered as clocksource. Individual PIT64B hardware resources were used for clocksource and clockevent to be able to support high resolution timers with this hardware implementation.

Currently, the reserved size for a tsc page is 4K, which is enough for communicating with hypervisor. However, in the case where we want to export the tsc page to userspace (e.g. for vDSO to read the clocksource), the tsc page should be at least PAGE_SIZE, otherwise, when PAGE_SIZE is larger than 4K, extra kernel data will be mapped into userspace, which means leaking kernel information. Therefore reserve PAGE_SIZE space for tsc_pg as a preparation for the vDSO support of ARM64 in the future. Also, while at it, replace all reference to tsc_pg with hv_get_tsc_page() since it should be the only interface to access tsc page.

Chunyan Zhang authored
Suspend to IDLE invokes tick_unfreeze() on resume. tick_unfreeze() on the first resuming CPU resumes timekeeping, which also has the side effect of resetting the softlockup watchdog on this CPU. But on the secondary CPUs the watchdog is not reset in the resume / unfreeze() path, which can result in false softlockup warnings on those CPUs depending on the time spent in suspend. Prevent this by clearing the softlock watchdog in the unfreeze path also on the secondary resuming CPUs.

The alarmtimer_rtc_add_device() function creates a wakeup source and then tries to grab a module reference. If that fails the function returns early with an error code, but fails to remove the wakeup source. Cleanup this exit path so there is no dangling wakeup source, which is named 'alarmtime' left allocated which will conflict with another RTC device that may be registered later.

VDSO support for Time namespace needs to set up a page with the same layout as VVAR. That timens page will be placed on position of VVAR page inside namespace. That page contains time namespace clock offsets and it has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path. Allocate the timens page during namespace creation. Setup the offsets when the first task enters the ns and freeze them to guarantee the pace of monotonic/boottime clocks and to avoid breakage of applications. The design decision is to have a global offset_lock which is used during namespace offsets setup and to freeze offsets when the first task joins the new time namespace. That is better in terms of memory usage compared to having a per namespace mutex that's used only during the setup period.

To support time namespaces in the VDSO with a minimal impact on regular non time namespace affected tasks, the namespace handling needs to be hidden in a slow path. The most obvious place is vdso_seq_begin(). If a task belongs to a time namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide VDSO data is replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace handling path. The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent update of the VDSO data is in progress, is not really affecting regular tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again. If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the special VVAR page. Allocate the time namespace page among VVAR pages and place vdso_data on it. Provide __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() helper for VDSO code to get the code-relative position of VVARs on that special page.

If VDSO time namespace support is disabled the whole magic is compiled out. Initial testing shows that the disabled case is almost identical to the host case which does not take the slow timens path. With the special timens page installed the performance hit is constant time and in the range of 5-7%. For the vdso functions which are not using the sequence count an unconditional check for vdso_data->clock_mode is added which switches to the real vdso when the clock_mode is VCLOCK_TIMENS.

Wire timer_settime() syscall into time namespace virtualization. sys_timer_settime() calls the ktime->timer_set() callback. Right now, common_timer_set() is the only implementation for the callback. The user-supplied expiry value is converted from timespec64 to ktime and then timens_ktime_to_host() can be used to convert namespace's time to the host time. Inside a time namespace kernel's time differs by a fixed offset from a user-supplied time, but only absolute values (TIMER_ABSTIME) must be converted.

Introduce offsets for time namespace. They will contain an adjustment needed to convert clocks to/from host's. A new namespace is created with the same offsets as the time namespace of the current process.

Time Namespace isolates clock values. The kernel provides access to several clocks CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_BOOTTIME, etc. CLOCK_REALTIME System-wide clock that measures real (i.e., wall-clock) time. CLOCK_MONOTONIC Clock that cannot be set and represents monotonic time since some unspecified starting point. CLOCK_BOOTTIME Identical to CLOCK_MONOTONIC, except it also includes any time that the system is suspended. For many users, the time namespace means the ability to changes date and time in a container (CLOCK_REALTIME). Providing per namespace notions of CLOCK_REALTIME would be complex with a massive overhead, but has a dubious value. But in the context of checkpoint/restore functionality, monotonic and boottime clocks become interesting. Both clocks are monotonic with unspecified starting points. These clocks are widely used to measure time slices and set timers. After restoring or migrating processes, it has to be guaranteed that they never go backward. In an ideal case, the behavior of these clocks should be the same as for a case when a whole system is suspended. All this means that it is required to set CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME clocks, which can be achieved by adding per-namespace offsets for clocks. A time namespace is similar to a pid namespace in the way how it is created: unshare(CLONE_NEWTIME) system call creates a new time namespace, but doesn't set it to the current process. Then all children of the process will be born in the new time namespace, or a process can use the setns() system call to join a namespace. This scheme allows setting clock offsets for a namespace, before any processes appear in it. All available clone flags have been used, so CLONE_NEWTIME uses the highest bit of CSIGNAL. It means that it can be used only with the unshare() and the clone3() system calls.
