time: remove obsolete CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST The first version of the ntp_interval/tick_length inconsistent usage patch was recently merged as bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405 http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405 While the fix did greatly improve the situation, it was correctly pointed out by Roman that it does have a small bug: If the users change clocksources after the system has been running and NTP has made corrections, the correctoins made against the old clocksource will be applied against the new clocksource, causing error. The second attempt, which corrects the issue in the NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH definition has also made it up-stream as commit e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84 http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84 Roman has correctly pointed out that CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST is calculated based on the PIT's frequency, and isn't really relevant to non-PIT driven clocksources (that is, clocksources other then jiffies and pit). This patch reverts both of those changes, and simply removes CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST. This does remove the granularity error correction for users of PIT and Jiffies clocksource users, but the granularity error but for the majority of users, it should be within the 500ppm range NTP can accommodate for. For systems that have granularity errors greater then 500ppm, the "ntp_tick_adj=" boot option can be used to compensate.

x86: tsc prevent time going backwards We already catch most of the TSC problems by sanity checks, but there is a subtle bug which has been in the code forever. This can cause time jumps in the range of hours. This was reported in: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/23/96 and http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/31/23 I was able to reproduce the problem with a gettimeofday loop test on a dual core and a quad core machine which both have sychronized TSCs. The TSCs seems not to be perfectly in sync though, but the kernel is not able to detect the slight delta in the sync check. Still there exists an extremly small window where this delta can be observed with a real big time jump. So far I was only able to reproduce this with the vsyscall gettimeofday implementation, but in theory this might be observable with the syscall based version as well. CPU 0 updates the clock source variables under xtime/vyscall lock and CPU1, where the TSC is slighty behind CPU0, is reading the time right after the seqlock was unlocked. The clocksource reference data was updated with the TSC from CPU0 and the value which is read from TSC on CPU1 is less than the reference data. This results in a huge delta value due to the unsigned subtraction of the TSC value and the reference value. This algorithm can not be changed due to the support of wrapping clock sources like pm timer. The huge delta is converted to nanoseconds and added to xtime, which is then observable by the caller. The next gettimeofday call on CPU1 will show the correct time again as now the TSC has advanced above the reference value. To prevent this TSC specific wreckage we need to compare the TSC value against the reference value and return the latter when it is larger than the actual TSC value. I pondered to mark the TSC unstable when the readout is smaller than the reference value, but this would render an otherwise good and fast clocksource unusable without a real good reason.

time: catch xtime_nsec underflows and fix them Impact: fix time warp bug Alex Shi, along with Yanmin Zhang have been noticing occasional time inconsistencies recently. Through their great diagnosis, they found that the xtime_nsec value used in update_wall_time was occasionally going negative. After looking through the code for awhile, I realized we have the possibility for an underflow when three conditions are met in update_wall_time(): 1) We have accumulated a second's worth of nanoseconds, so we incremented xtime.tv_sec and appropriately decrement xtime_nsec. (This doesn't cause xtime_nsec to go negative, but it can cause it to be small). 2) The remaining offset value is large, but just slightly less then cycle_interval. 3) clocksource_adjust() is speeding up the clock, causing a corrective amount (compensating for the increase in the multiplier being multiplied against the unaccumulated offset value) to be subtracted from xtime_nsec. This can cause xtime_nsec to underflow. Unfortunately, since we notify the NTP subsystem via second_overflow() whenever we accumulate a full second, and this effects the error accumulation that has already occured, we cannot simply revert the accumulated second from xtime nor move the second accumulation to after the clocksource_adjust call without a change in behavior. This leaves us with (at least) two options: 1) Simply return from clocksource_adjust() without making a change if we notice the adjustment would cause xtime_nsec to go negative. This would work, but I'm concerned that if a large adjustment was needed (due to the error being large), it may be possible to get stuck with an ever increasing error that becomes too large to correct (since it may always force xtime_nsec negative). This may just be paranoia on my part. 2) Catch xtime_nsec if it is negative, then add back the amount its negative to both xtime_nsec and the error. This second method is consistent with how we've handled earlier rounding issues, and also has the benefit that the error being added is always in the oposite direction also always equal or smaller then the correction being applied. So the risk of a corner case where things get out of control is lessened.

/*
* Since in the loop above, we accumulate any amount of time
* in xtime_nsec over a second into xtime.tv_sec, its possible for
* xtime_nsec to be fairly small after the loop. Further, if we're
* slightly speeding the clocksource up in clocksource_adjust(),
* its possible the required corrective factor to xtime_nsec could
* cause it to underflow.
*
* Now, we cannot simply roll the accumulated second back, since
* the NTP subsystem has been notified via second_overflow. So
* instead we push xtime_nsec forward by the amount we underflowed,
* and add that amount into the error.
*
* We'll correct this error next time through this function, when
* xtime_nsec is not as small.
