      clocksource: Simplify the logic around clocksource wrapping safety margins · 362fde04
      John Stultz authored
      The clocksource logic has a number of places where we try to
      include a safety margin. Most of these are 12% safety margins,
      but they are inconsistently applied and sometimes are applied
      on top of each other.
      
      Additionally, in the previous patch, we corrected an issue
      where we unintentionally in effect created a 50% safety margin,
      which these 12.5% margins where then added to.
      
      So to simplify the logic here, this patch removes the various
      12.5% margins, and consolidates adding the margin in one place:
      clocks_calc_max_nsecs().
      
      Additionally, Linus prefers a 50% safety margin, as it allows
      bad clock values to be more easily caught. This should really
      have no net effect, due to the corrected issue earlier which
      caused greater then 50% margins to be used w/o issue.

      clocksource: Simplify the clocks_calc_max_nsecs() logic · 6086e346
      John Stultz authored
      The previous clocks_calc_max_nsecs() code had some unecessarily
      complex bit logic to find the max interval that could cause
      multiplication overflows. Since this is not in the hot
      path, just do the divide to make it easier to read.
      
      The previous implementation also had a subtle issue
      that it avoided overflows with signed 64-bit values, where
      as the intervals are always unsigned. This resulted in
      overly conservative intervals, which other safety margins
      were then added to, reducing the intended interval length.

      drm/i915: Fix modeset state confusion in the load detect code · 9128b040
      Daniel Vetter authored
      This is a tricky story of the new atomic state handling and the legacy
      code fighting over each another. The bug at hand is an underrun of the
      framebuffer reference with subsequent hilarity caused by the load
      detect code. Which is peculiar since the the exact same code works
      fine as the implementation of the legacy setcrtc ioctl.
      
      Let's look at the ingredients:
      
      - Currently our code is a crazy mix of legacy modeset interfaces to
        set the parameters and half-baked atomic state tracking underneath.
        While this transition is going we're using the transitional plane
        helpers to update the atomic side (drm_plane_helper_disable/update
        and friends), i.e. plane->state->fb. Since the state structure owns
        the fb those functions take care of that themselves.
      
        The legacy state (specifically crtc->primary->fb) is still managed
        by the old code (and mostly by the drm core), with the fb reference
        counting done by callers (core drm for the ioctl or the i915 load
        detect code). The relevant commit is

            drm/i915: Move to atomic plane helpers (v9)
      
      - drm_plane_helper_disable has special code to handle multiple calls
        in a row - it checks plane->crtc == NULL and bails out. This is to
        match the proper atomic implementation which needs the crtc to get
        at the implied locking context atomic updates always need. See

            drm/plane-helper: transitional atomic plane helpers
      
      - The universal plane code split out the implicit primary plane from
        the CRTC into it's own full-blown drm_plane object. As part of that
        the setcrtc ioctl (which updated both the crtc mode and primary
        plane) learned to set crtc->primary->crtc on modeset to make sure
        the plane->crtc assignments statate up to date in
      
        commit e13161af

        Date:   Tue Apr 1 15:22:38 2014 -0700
      
            drm: Add drm_crtc_init_with_planes() (v2)
      
        Unfortunately we've forgotten to update the load detect code. Which
        wasn't a problem since the load detect modeset is temporary and
        always undone before we drop the locks.
      
      - Finally there is a organically grown history (i.e. don't ask) around
        who sets the legacy plane->fb for the various driver entry points.
        Originally updating that was the drivers duty, but for almost all
        places we've moved that (plus updating the refcounts) into the core.
        Again the exception is the load detect code.
      
      Taking all together the following happens:
      - The load detect code doesn't set crtc->primary->crtc. This is only
        really an issue on crtcs never before used or when userspace
        explicitly disabled the primary plane.
      
      - The plane helper glue code short-circuits because of that and leaves
        a non-NULL fb behind in plane->state->fb and plane->fb. The state
        fb isn't a real problem (it's properly refcounted on its own), it's
        just the canary.
      
      - Load detect code drops the reference for that fb, but doesn't set
        plane->fb = NULL. This is ok since it's still living in that old
        world where drivers had to clear the pointer but the core/callers
        handled the refcounting.
      
      - On the next modeset the drm core notices plane->fb and takes care of
        refcounting it properly by doing another unref. This drops the
        refcount to zero, leaving state->plane now pointing at freed memory.
      
      - intel_plane_duplicate_state still assume it owns a reference to that
        very state->fb and bad things start to happen.
      
      Fix this all by applying the same duct-tape as for the legacy setcrtc
      ioctl code and set crtc->primary->crtc properly.
