AMD SB700 based systems with spread spectrum enabled use a SMM based
HPET emulation to provide proper frequency setting. The SMM code is
initialized with the first HPET register access and takes some time to
complete. During this time the config register reads 0xffffffff. We
check for max. 1000 loops whether the config register reads a non
0xffffffff value to make sure that HPET is up and running before we go
further. A counting loop is safe, as the HPET access takes thousands
of CPU cycles. On non SB700 based machines this check is only done
once and has no side effects.

Minor /dev/hpet updates and bugfixes:
* Remove dead code, mostly remnants of an incomplete/unusable
kernel interface ... noted when addressing "sparse" warnings:
+ hpet_unregister() and a routine it calls
+ hpet_task and all references, including hpet_task_lock
+ hpet_data.hd_flags (and HPET_DATA_PLATFORM)
* Correct and improve boot message:
+ displays *counter* (shared between comparators) bit width,
not *timer* bit widths (which are often mixed)
+ relabel "timers" as "comparators"; this is less confusing,
they are not independent like normal timers are (sigh)
+ display MHz not Hz; it's never less than 10 MHz.
* Tighten and correct the userspace interface code
+ don't accidentally program comparators in 64-bit mode using
32-bit values ... always force comparators into 32-bit mode
+ provide the correct bit definition flagging comparators with
periodic capability ... the ABI is unchanged
* Update Documentation/hpet.txt
+ be more correct and current
+ expand description a bit
+ don't mention that now-gone kernel interface
Plus, add a FIXME comment for something that could cause big trouble
on systems with more capable HPETs than at least Intel seems to ship.
It seems that few folk use this userspace interface; it's not very
usable given the general lack of HPET IRQ routing. I'm told that
the only real point of it any more is to mmap for fast timestamps;
IMO that's handled better through the gettimeofday() vsyscall.

This fixes kernel http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11112 (bogus
RTC update IRQs reported) for rtc-cmos, in two ways:
- When HPET is stealing the IRQs, use the first IRQ to grab
the seconds counter which will be monitored (instead of
using whatever was previously in that memory);
- In sane IRQ handling modes, scrub out old IRQ status before
enabling IRQs.
That latter is done by tightening up IRQ handling for rtc-cmos everywhere,
also ensuring that when HPET is used it's the only thing triggering IRQ
reports to userspace; net object shrink.
Also fix a bogus HPET message related to its RTC emulation.

While reading through the HPET code I realized that the
computation of .mult variables could be done with less
lines of code, resulting in a 1.6% text size saving
for hpet.o
So I propose the following patch, which applies against
today's Linus -git tree.
>From 0c6507e400e9ca5f7f14331e18f8c12baf75a9d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Carlos R. Mafra <crmafra@ift.unesp.br>
Date: Mon, 5 May 2008 19:38:53 -0300
The computation of clocksource_hpet.mult
tmp = (u64)hpet_period << HPET_SHIFT;
do_div(tmp, FSEC_PER_NSEC);
clocksource_hpet.mult = (u32)tmp;
can be streamlined if we note that it is equal to
clocksource_hpet.mult = div_sc(hpet_period, FSEC_PER_NSEC, HPET_SHIFT);
Furthermore, the computation of hpet_clockevent.mult
uint64_t hpet_freq;
hpet_freq = 1000000000000000ULL;
do_div(hpet_freq, hpet_period);
hpet_clockevent.mult = div_sc((unsigned long) hpet_freq,
NSEC_PER_SEC, hpet_clockevent.shift);
can also be streamlined with the observation that hpet_period and hpet_freq are
inverse to each other (in proper units).
So instead of computing hpet_freq and using (schematically)
div_sc(hpet_freq, 10^9, shift) we use the trick of calling with the
arguments in reverse order, div_sc(10^6, hpet_period, shift).
The different power of ten is due to frequency being in Hertz (1/sec)
and the period being in units of femtosecond. Explicitly,
mult = (hpet_freq * 2^shift)/10^9 (before)
mult = (10^6 * 2^shift)/hpet_period (after)
because hpet_freq = 10^15/hpet_period.
The comments in the code are also updated to reflect the changes.
As a result,

x86: assign IRQs to HPET timers
have been identified to cause a regression on some platforms due to
the assignement of legacy IRQs which makes the legacy devices
connected to those IRQs disfunctional.

the previous patch in the old RTC driver. It also removes the direct
rtc_interrupt() call from arch/x86/kernel/hpetc.c so that there's finally no
(code) dependency to CONFIG_RTC in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c.
Because of this, it's possible to compile the drivers/char/rtc.ko driver as
module and still use the HPET emulation functionality. This is also expressed
in Kconfig.

enabled, then interrupts don't work for the rtc-cmos driver which results in
RTC_AIE*, RTC_PIE* and RTC_ALM being unusable. This affects hwclock from
util-linux-ng at least on i386 since that uses RTC_PIE_ON. (For x86-64, a
polling method is used for unknown reasons.)
This patch series now
1. export the functions from arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c that the old char/rtc
driver uses to work around that problem,
2. makes it possible to compile the old rtc driver as module, while still
having CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC enabled and
3. makes use of the exported functions in (1) in the new rtc-cmos driver.
This patch:
This patch makes the RTC emulation functions in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c usable
for kernel modules. It
- exports the functions (EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()),
- adds an interface to register the interrupt callback function
instead of using only a fixed callback function and
- replaces the rtc_get_rtc_time() function which depends on
CONFIG_RTC with a call to get_rtc_time() which is defined in
include/asm-generic/rtc.h.
The only dependency to CONFIG_RTC is the call to rtc_interrupt() which is
removed by the next patch. After this, there's no (code) dependency of
this functions to CONFIG_RTC=y any more.

Looks like IRQ 31 is assigned to timer 3, even without the patch!
I wonder who wrote the number 31. But the manual says that it is
zero by default.
I think we should check whether the timer has been allocated an IRQ before
proceeding to assign one to it. Here is a patch that does this.

The userspace API for the HPET (see Documentation/hpet.txt) did not work. The
HPET_IE_ON ioctl was failing as there was no IRQ assigned to the timer
device. This patch fixes it by allocating IRQs to timer blocks in the HPET.

In the current code, RTC_AIE doesn't work if the RTC relies on
CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC because the code sets the RTC_AIE flag in
hpet_set_rtc_irq_bit(). The interrupt handles does accidentally check
for RTC_PIE and not RTC_AIE when comparing the time which was set in
hpet_set_alarm_time().
I now verified on a test system here that without the patch applied,
the attached test program fails on a system that has HPET with
2.6.24-rc7-default. That's not critical since I guess the problem has
been there for several kernel releases, but as the fix is quite
obvious.
Configuration is CONFIG_RTC=y and CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y.

If HPET was enabled by pci quirks, we use i8253 as initial clockevent
because pci quirks doesn't run until pci is initialized.
The above means the kernel (or something) is assuming HPET legacy
replacement is disabled and can use i8253 at boot.
If we used kexec, it isn't true. So, this patch disables HPET legacy
replacement for kexec in machine_shutdown().
