Pull core signal handling updates from Eric Biederman:
"It was observed that a periodic timer in combination with a
sufficiently expensive fork could prevent fork from every completing.
This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.
This set of changes is split into several parts:
- The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
something only for very special cases. The part starts using
PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
of processes or just a single process.
- With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
appear to be received after the fork completes"

parisc is the only Linux architecture which has defined a value for ENOTSUP.
All other architectures #define ENOTSUP as EOPNOTSUPP in their libc headers.
Having an own value for ENOTSUP which is different than EOPNOTSUPP often gives
problems with userspace programs which expect both to be the same. One such
example is a build error in the libuv package, as can be seen in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900237.
Since we dropped HP-UX support, there is no real benefit in keeping an own
value for ENOTSUP. This patch drops the parisc value for ENOTSUP from the
kernel sources. glibc needs no patch, it reuses the exported headers.

Using cpu_all_mask in clockevents cpumask may result in issues while
comparing multiple clockevent devices to choose the preferred one.
On one of the platforms with 2 system (i.e. non per-CPU) timers with
different ratings, having cpu_all_mask for one of the device resulted in a
boot hang due to a endless loop in clockevents_notify_released() as both
were clocksources were selected as preferred.
In order to prevent such issues in the future, warn if any clockevent
driver sets cpu_all_mask as it's cpumask and just override it to use
cpu_possible_mask. All the existing occurrences of cpu_all_mask are already
replaced with cpu_possible_mask.

timer_base::must_forward_clock is indicating that the base clock might be
stale due to a long idle sleep.
The forwarding of the base clock takes place in the timer softirq or when a
timer is enqueued to a base which is idle. If the enqueue of timer to an
idle base happens from a remote CPU, then the following race can happen:
CPU0 CPU1
run_timer_softirq mod_timer
base = lock_timer_base(timer);
base->must_forward_clk = false
if (base->must_forward_clk)
forward(base); -> skipped
enqueue_timer(base, timer, idx);
-> idx is calculated high due to
stale base
unlock_timer_base(timer);
base = lock_timer_base(timer);
forward(base);
The root cause is that timer_base::must_forward_clk is cleared outside the
timer_base::lock held region, so the remote queuing CPU observes it as
cleared, but the base clock is still stale. This can cause large
granularity values for timers, i.e. the accuracy of the expiry time
suffers.
Prevent this by clearing the flag with timer_base::lock held, so that the
forwarding takes place before the cleared flag is observable by a remote
CPU.

local_timer_softirq_pending() checks whether the timer softirq is
pending with: local_softirq_pending() & TIMER_SOFTIRQ.
This is wrong because TIMER_SOFTIRQ is the softirq number and not a

Make the code more maintainable by performing more of the signal
related work in send_sigqueue.
A quick inspection of do_timer_create will show that this code path
does not lookup a thread group by a thread's pid. Making it safe
to find the task pointed to by it_pid with "pid_task(it_pid, type)";
This supports the changes needed in fork to tell if a signal was sent
to a single process or a group of processes.
Having the pid to task transition in signal.c will also make it easier
to sort out races with de_thread and and the thread group leader
exiting when it comes time to address that.

In good_sigevent directly compute the default return value as
"task_tgid(current)". This is exactly the same as
"task_pid(current->group_leader)" but written more clearly.
In the thread case first compute the thread's pid. Then veify that
attached to that pid is a thread of the current thread group.
This has the net effect of making the code a little clearer, and
making it obvious that posix timers never look up a process by a the
pid of a thread.
Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Everywhere except in the pid array we distinguish between a tasks pid and
a tasks tgid (thread group id). Even in the enumeration we want that
distinction sometimes so we have added __PIDTYPE_TGID. With leader_pid
we almost have an implementation of PIDTYPE_TGID in struct signal_struct.
Add PIDTYPE_TGID as a first class member of the pid_type enumeration and
into the pids array. Then remove the __PIDTYPE_TGID special case and the
leader_pid in signal_struct.
The net size increase is just an extra pointer added to struct pid and
an extra pair of pointers of an hlist_node added to task_struct.
The effect on code maintenance is the removal of a number of special
cases today and the potential to remove many more special cases as
PIDTYPE_TGID gets used to it's fullest. The long term potential
is allowing zombie thread group leaders to exit, which will remove
a lot more special cases in the code.

Pull the second set of timekeeping things for 4.19 from John Stultz
* NTP argument clenaups and constification from Ondrej Mosnacek
* Fix to avoid RTC injecting sleeptime when suspend fails from
Mukesh Ojha
* Broading suspsend-timing to include non-stop clocksources that
aren't currently used for timekeeping from Baolin Wang
On some hardware with multiple clocksources, we have coarse grained
clocksources that support the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag, but
which are less than ideal for timekeeping whereas other clocksources
can be better candidates but halt on suspend.
Currently, the timekeeping core only supports timing suspend using
CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksources if that clocksource is the
current clocksource for timekeeping.
As a result, some architectures try to implement read_persistent_clock64()
using those non-stop clocksources, but isn't really ideal, which will
introduce more duplicate code. To fix this, provide logic to allow a
registered SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksource, which isn't the current
clocksource, to be used to calculate the suspend time.

[jstultz: minor tweaks to merge with previous resume changes]
Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
Currently, there exists a corner case assuming when there is
only one clocksource e.g RTC, and system failed to go to
suspend mode. While resume rtc_resume() injects the sleeptime
as timekeeping_rtc_skipresume() returned 'false' (default value
of sleeptime_injected) due to which we can see mismatch in
timestamps.
This issue can also come in a system where more than one
clocksource are present and very first suspend fails.
Success case:
------------
{sleeptime_injected=false}
rtc_suspend() => timekeeping_suspend() => timekeeping_resume() =>
(sleeptime injected)
rtc_resume()
Failure case:
------------
{failure in sleep path} {sleeptime_injected=false}
rtc_suspend() => rtc_resume()
{sleeptime injected again which was not required as the suspend failed}
Fix this by handling the boolean logic properly.

When the NTP frequency is set directly from userspace using the

This removes a hidden non-deterministic delay in setting of the
frequency and allows an extremely tight control of the system clock
with update rates close to or even exceeding the kernel HZ.

The posix timer overrun handling is broken because the forwarding functions
can return a huge number of overruns which does not fit in an int. As a

k_itimer::ti_overrun[_last] 64bit as well, so the kernel internal
accounting is correct. 3Remove the temporary (int) casts.
Add a helper function which clamps the overrun value returned to user space
via timer_getoverrun(2) or siginfo::si_overrun limited to a positive value
between 0 and INT_MAX. INT_MAX is an indicator for user space that the

struct itimerspec is not y2038-safe.
Introduce a new struct __kernel_itimerspec based on the kernel internal
y2038-safe struct itimerspec64.
The definition of struct __kernel_itimerspec includes two struct
__kernel_timespec.
Since struct __kernel_timespec has the same representation in native and
compat modes, so does struct __kernel_itimerspec. This helps have a common
entry point for syscalls using struct __kernel_itimerspec.
New y2038-safe syscalls will use this new type. Since most of the new
syscalls are just an update to the native syscalls with the type update,
place the new definition under CONFIG_64BIT_TIME. This helps architectures
that do not support the above config to keep using the old definition of
struct itimerspec.
Also change the get/put_itimerspec64 to use struct__kernel_itimerspec.
This will help 32 bit architectures to use the new syscalls when
architectures select CONFIG_64BIT_TIME.

For the common cases where 1000 is a multiple of HZ, or HZ is a multiple of
1000, jiffies_to_msecs() never returns zero when passed a non-zero time
period.
However, if HZ > 1000 and not an integer multiple of 1000 (e.g. 1024 or
1200, as used on alpha and DECstation), jiffies_to_msecs() may return zero
for small non-zero time periods. This may break code that relies on
receiving back a non-zero value.
jiffies_to_usecs() does not need such a fix: one jiffy can only be less
than one µs if HZ > 1000000, and such large values of HZ are already
rejected at build time, twice:
- include/linux/jiffies.h does #error if HZ >= 12288,
- kernel/time/time.c has BUILD_BUG_ON(HZ > USEC_PER_SEC).

Both get_seconds() and do_gettimeofday() are deprecated. Change the time()
implementation to use the replacement function instead.
Obviously the system call will still overflow in 2038, but this gets us

Commit b5793b0d92 added support for building the nanosleep compat system
call on 32-bit architectures, but missed one change in nanosleep_copyout(),
which would trigger a BUG() as soon as any architecture is switched over to

Use the proper config symbol to enable the code path.

The lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled() was a BUG_ON() statement in the
beginning and it was added just before the "spin_lock(siglock)"
statement to ensure this lock was taken with disabled interrupts.
This is no longer the case: the siglock is acquired via
lock_task_sighand() and this function already disables the interrupts.
The lock is also acquired before this "lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled" so
it is best to remove it.

timekeeping suspend/resume calls read_persistent_clock() which takes
rtc_lock. That results in might sleep warnings because at that point
we run with interrupts disabled.
We cannot convert rtc_lock to a raw spinlock as that would trigger
other might sleep warnings.
As a workaround we disable the might sleep warnings by setting
system_state to SYSTEM_SUSPEND before calling sysdev_suspend() and
restoring it to SYSTEM_RUNNING afer sysdev_resume(). There is no lock
contention because hibernate / suspend to RAM is single-CPU at this
point.
In s2idle's case the system_state is set to SYSTEM_SUSPEND before
timekeeping_suspend() which is invoked by the last CPU. In the resume
case it set back to SYSTEM_RUNNING after timekeeping_resume() which is
invoked by the first CPU in the resume case. The other CPUs will block
on tick_freeze_lock.

At this point, we have converted most of the kernel to use timespec64
consistently in place of timespec, so it seems it's time to make
timespec64 the native structure and define timespec in terms of that
one on 64-bit architectures.
Starting with gcc-5, the compiler can completely optimize away the
timespec_to_timespec64 and timespec64_to_timespec functions on 64-bit
architectures. With older compilers, we introduce a couple of extra
copies of local variables, but those are easily avoided by using
the timespec64 based interfaces consistently, as we do in most of the
important code paths already.
The main upside of removing the hack is that printing the tv_sec
field of a timespec64 structure can now use the %lld format
string on all architectures without a cast to time64_t. Without
this patch, the field is a 'long' type and would have to be printed
using %ld on 64-bit architectures.

for_each_cpu() unintuitively reports CPU0 as set independent of the actual
cpumask content on UP kernels. This causes an unexpected PIT interrupt
storm on a UP kernel running in an SMP virtual machine on Hyper-V, and as
a result, the virtual machine can suffer from a strange random delay of 1~20
minutes during boot-up, and sometimes it can hang forever.
Protect if by checking whether the cpumask is empty before entering the
for_each_cpu() loop.

Because of how the code flips between tsc-early and tsc clocksources
it might need to mark one or both unstable. The current code in
mark_tsc_unstable() only worked because previously it registered the
tsc clocksource once and then never touched it.
Since it now unregisters the tsc-early clocksource, it needs to know
if a clocksource got unregistered and the current cs->mult test
doesn't work for that. Instead use list_empty(&cs->list) to test for
registration.
Furthermore, since clocksource_mark_unstable() needs to place the cs
on the wd_list, it links the cs->list and cs->wd_list serialization.
It must not see a clocsource registered (!empty cs->list) but already
past dequeue_watchdog(). So place {en,de}queue{,_watchdog}() under the
same lock.
Provided cs->list is initialized to empty, this then allows us to
unconditionally use clocksource_mark_unstable(), regardless of the
registration state.

Kaike reported that in tests rdma hrtimers occasionaly stopped working. He
did great debugging, which provided enough context to decode the problem.

queue->next = sched_timer
start rdmavt timer. expires = 712172915662

hrtimer_start(sched_timer) queue->next = tmr;
lock(baseof(CPU3))
unlock(baseof(CPU3))
timerqueue_remove()
timerqueue_add()
ts->sched_timer is queued and queue->next is pointing to it, but then
ts->sched_timer.expires is modified.
This not only corrupts the ordering of the timerqueue RB tree, it also
makes CPU2 see the new expiry time of timerqueue->next->expires when
checking whether timerqueue->next needs to be updated. So CPU2 sees that
the rdma timer is earlier than timerqueue->next and sets the rdma timer as
new next.
Depending on whether it had also seen the new time at RB tree enqueue, it
might have queued the rdma timer at the wrong place and then after removing
the sched_timer the RB tree is completely hosed.
The problem was introduced with a commit which tried to solve inconsistency
between the hrtimer in the tick_sched data and the underlying hardware
clockevent. It split out hrtimer_set_expires() to store the new tick time
in both the NOHZ and the NOHZ + HIGHRES case, but missed the fact that in
the NOHZ + HIGHRES case the hrtimer might still be queued.
Use hrtimer_start(timer, tick...) for the NOHZ + HIGHRES case which sets
timer->expires after canceling the timer and move the hrtimer_set_expires()
invocation into the NOHZ only code path which is not affected as it merily
uses the hrtimer as next event storage so code pathes can be shared with
the NOHZ + HIGHRES case.

The new y2038 safe syscalls have a common entry for native

On compat interfaces, the high order bits of nanoseconds
should be zeroed out. This is because the application code
or the libc do not guarantee zeroing of these. If used without
zeroing, kernel might be at risk of using timespec values
incorrectly.
Note that clearing of bits is dependent on CONFIG_64BIT_TIME

Commit a9445e47d8 ("posix-cpu-timers: Make set_process_cpu_timer()
more robust") moved the check into the 'if' statement. Unfortunately,
it did so on the right side of an && which means that it may get short
circuited and never evaluated. This is easily reproduced with:
$ cat loop.c
void main() {
struct rlimit res;
/* set the CPU time limit */
getrlimit(RLIMIT_CPU,&res);
res.rlim_cur = 2;
res.rlim_max = 2;
setrlimit(RLIMIT_CPU,&res);
while (1);
}
Which will hang forever instead of being killed. Fix this by pulling the
evaluation out of the if statement but checking the return value instead.

If the tick isn't stopped, the target residency of the state selected
by the menu governor may be greater than the actual time to the next
tick and that means lost energy.
To avoid that, make tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() return the current
time to the next event (before stopping the tick) in addition to the
estimated one via an extra pointer argument and make menu_select()
use that value to refine the state selection when necessary.

In order to address the issue with short idle duration predictions
by the idle governor after the scheduler tick has been stopped,
reorder the code in cpuidle_idle_call() so that the governor idle
state selection runs before tick_nohz_idle_go_idle() and use the
"nohz" hint returned by cpuidle_select() to decide whether or not
to stop the tick.
This isn't straightforward, because menu_select() invokes
tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() to get the time to the next timer
event and the number returned by the latter comes from
__tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick(). Fortunately, however, it is possible
to compute that number without actually stopping the tick and with
the help of the existing code.
Namely, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can be made call
tick_nohz_next_event(), introduced earlier, to get the time to the
next non-highres timer event. If that happens, tick_nohz_next_event()
need not be called by __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() again.
If it turns out that the scheduler tick cannot be stopped going
forward or the next timer event is too close for the tick to be
stopped, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() can simply return the time to
the next event currently programmed into the corresponding clock
event device.
In addition to knowing the return value of tick_nohz_next_event(),
however, tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() needs to know the time to the
next highres timer event, but with the scheduler tick timer excluded,
which can be computed with the help of hrtimer_get_next_event().
That minimum of that number and the tick_nohz_next_event() return
value is the total time to the next timer event with the assumption
that the tick will be stopped. It can be returned to the idle
governor which can use it for predicting idle duration (under the
assumption that the tick will be stopped) and deciding whether or
not it makes sense to stop the tick before putting the CPU into the
selected idle state.
With the above, the sleep_length field in struct tick_sched is not
necessary any more, so drop it.

In order to address the issue with short idle duration predictions
by the idle governor after the scheduler tick has been stopped, split
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() into two separate routines, one computing
the time to the next timer event and the other simply stopping the
tick when the time to the next timer event is known.
Prepare these two routines to be called separately, as one of them
will be called by the idle governor in the cpuidle_select() code
path after subsequent changes.
Update the former callers of tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to use
the new routines, tick_nohz_next_event() and tick_nohz_stop_tick(),
instead of it and move the updates of the sleep_length field in

Add a new pointer argument to cpuidle_select() and to the ->select
cpuidle governor callback to allow a boolean value indicating
whether or not the tick should be stopped before entering the
selected state to be returned from there.
Make the ladder governor ignore that pointer (to preserve its
current behavior) and make the menu governor return 'false" through
it if:
(1) the idle exit latency is constrained at 0, or
(2) the selected state is a polling one, or
(3) the expected idle period duration is within the tick period
range.
In addition to that, the correction factor computations in the menu
governor need to take the possibility that the tick may not be
stopped into account to avoid artificially small correction factor
values. To that end, add a mechanism to record tick wakeups, as
suggested by Peter Zijlstra, and use it to modify the menu_update()
behavior when tick wakeup occurs. Namely, if the CPU is woken up by
the tick and the return value of tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() is not
within the tick boundary, the predicted idle duration is likely too
short, so make menu_update() try to compensate for that by updating
the governor statistics as though the CPU was idle for a long time.
Since the value returned through the new argument pointer of
cpuidle_select() is not used by its caller yet, this change by
itself is not expected to alter the functionality of the code.

Push the decision whether or not to stop the tick somewhat deeper
into the idle loop.
Stopping the tick upfront leads to unpleasant outcomes in case the
idle governor doesn't agree with the nohz code on the duration of the
upcoming idle period. Specifically, if the tick has been stopped and
the idle governor predicts short idle, the situation is bad regardless
of whether or not the prediction is accurate. If it is accurate, the
tick has been stopped unnecessarily which means excessive overhead.
If it is not accurate, the CPU is likely to spend too much time in
the (shallow, because short idle has been predicted) idle state
selected by the governor [1].
As the first step towards addressing this problem, change the code
to make the tick stopping decision inside of the loop in do_idle().
In particular, do not stop the tick in the cpu_idle_poll() code path.
Also don't do that in tick_nohz_irq_exit() which doesn't really have
enough information on whether or not to stop the tick.

Prepare the scheduler tick code for reworking the idle loop to
avoid stopping the tick in some cases.
The idea is to split the nohz idle entry call to decouple the idle
time stats accounting and preparatory work from the actual tick stop
code, in order to later be able to delay the tick stop once we reach
more power-knowledgeable callers.
Move away the tick_nohz_start_idle() invocation from
__tick_nohz_idle_enter(), rename the latter to
__tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() and define tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
as a wrapper around it for calling it from the outside.
Make tick_nohz_idle_enter() only call tick_nohz_start_idle() instead
of calling the entire __tick_nohz_idle_enter(), add another wrapper
disabling and enabling interrupts around tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick()
and make the current callers of tick_nohz_idle_enter() call it too
to retain their current functionality.

<asm/sycall_wrapper.h> is included in <linux/compat.h> and may be used

the compat syscall function prototypes in <linux/compat.h> are #ifndef'd
out in that case.
As some of the syscalls and/or compat syscalls may not be present,
the COND_SYSCALL() and COND_SYSCALL_COMPAT() macros in kernel/sys_ni.c

Pull time(r) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of updates for timers and timekeeping:
- The most interesting change is the consolidation of clock MONOTONIC
and clock BOOTTIME.
Clock MONOTONIC behaves now exactly like clock BOOTTIME and does
not longer ignore the time spent in suspend. A new clock
MONOTONIC_ACTIVE is provived which behaves like clock MONOTONIC in
kernels before this change. This allows applications to
programmatically check for the clock MONOTONIC behaviour.
As discussed in the review thread, this has the potential of
breaking user space and we might have to revert this. Knock on wood
that we can avoid that exercise.
- Updates to the NTP mechanism to improve accuracy
- A new kernel internal data structure to aid the ongoing Y2038 work.
- Cleanups and simplifications of the clocksource code.
- Make the alarmtimer code play nicely with debugobjects"

The clockid argument of clockid_to_kclock() comes straight from user space
via various syscalls and is used as index into the posix_clocks array.
Protect it against spectre v1 array out of bounds speculation. Remove the
redundant check for !posix_clock[id] as this is another source for
speculation and does not provide any advantage over the return
posix_clock[id] path which returns NULL in that case anyway.

Dealing with 'struct timeval' users in the y2038 series is a bit tricky:
We have two definitions of timeval that are visible to user space,
one comes from glibc (or some other C library), the other comes from
linux/time.h. The kernel copy is what we want to be used for a number of
structures defined by the kernel itself, e.g. elf_prstatus (used it core
dumps), sysinfo and rusage (used in system calls). These generally tend
to be used for passing time intervals rather than absolute (epoch-based)
times, so they do not suffer from the y2038 overflow. Some of them
could be changed to use 64-bit timestamps by creating new system calls,
others like the core files cannot easily be changed.
An application using these interfaces likely also uses gettimeofday()
or other interfaces that use absolute times, and pass 'struct timeval'
pointers directly into kernel interfaces, so glibc must redefine their
timeval based on a 64-bit time_t when they introduce their y2038-safe
interfaces.
The only reasonable way forward I see is to remove the 'timeval'
definion from the kernel's uapi headers, and change the interfaces that
we do not want to (or cannot) duplicate for 64-bit times to use a new
__kernel_old_timeval definition instead. This type should be avoided
for all new interfaces (those can use 64-bit nanoseconds, or the 64-bit
version of timespec instead), and should be used with great care when
converting existing interfaces from timeval, to be sure they don't suffer
from the y2038 overflow, and only with consensus for the particular user
that using __kernel_old_timeval is better than moving to a 64-bit based
interface. The structure name is intentionally chosen to not conflict
with user space types, and to be ugly enough to discourage its use.
Note that ioctl based interfaces that pass a bare 'timeval' pointer
cannot change to '__kernel_old_timeval' because the user space source
code refers to 'timeval' instead, and we don't want to modify the user
space sources if possible. However, any application that relies on a
structure to contain an embedded 'timeval' (e.g. by passing a pointer
to the member into a function call that expects a timeval pointer) is
broken when that structure gets converted to __kernel_old_timeval. I
don't see any way around that, and we have to rely on the compiler to
produce a warning or compile failure that will alert users when they
recompile their sources against a new libc.

The MONOTONIC clock is not fast forwarded by the time spent in suspend on
resume. This is only done for the BOOTTIME clock. The reason why the
MONOTONIC clock is not forwarded is historical: the original Linux
implementation was using jiffies as a base for the MONOTONIC clock and
jiffies have never been advanced after resume.
At some point when timekeeping was unified in the core code, the
MONONOTIC clock was advanced after resume which also advanced jiffies causing
interesting side effects. As a consequence the the MONOTONIC clock forwarding
was disabled again and the BOOTTIME clock was introduced, which allows to read
time since boot.
Back then it was not possible to completely distangle the MONOTONIC clock and
jiffies because there were still interfaces which exposed the MONOTONIC clock
behaviour based on the timer wheel and therefore jiffies.
As of today none of the MONOTONIC clock facilities depends on jiffies
anymore so the forwarding can be done seperately. This is achieved by
forwarding the variables which are used for the jiffies update after resume
before the tick is restarted,
In timekeeping resume, the change is rather simple. Instead of updating the
offset between the MONOTONIC clock and the REALTIME/BOOTTIME clocks, advance the
time keeper base for the MONOTONIC and the MONOTONIC_RAW clocks by the time
spent in suspend.
The MONOTONIC clock is now the same as the BOOTTIME clock and the offset between
the REALTIME and the MONOTONIC clocks is the same as before suspend.
There might be side effects in applications, which rely on the
(unfortunately) well documented behaviour of the MONOTONIC clock, but the
downsides of the existing behaviour are probably worse.
There is one obvious issue. Up to now it was possible to retrieve the time
spent in suspend by observing the delta between the MONOTONIC clock and the
BOOTTIME clock. This is not longer available, but the previously introduced
mechanism to read the active non-suspended monotonic time can mitigate that
in a detectable fashion.

The planned change to unify the behaviour of the MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME
clocks vs. suspend removes the ability to retrieve the active
non-suspended time of a system.
Provide a new CLOCK_MONOTONIC_ACTIVE clock which returns the active
non-suspended time of the system via clock_gettime().
This preserves the old behaviour of CLOCK_MONOTONIC before the
BOOTTIME/MONOTONIC unification.
This new clock also allows applications to detect programmatically that
the MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME clocks are identical.
