When CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_MIN_ADJUST=n, the call path
hrtimer_reprogram -> clockevents_program_event ->
clockevents_program_min_delta will not retry if the clock event driver
returns -ETIME.
If the driver could not satisfy the program_min_delta for any reason, the
lack of a retry means the CPU may not receive a tick interrupt, potentially
until the counter does a full period. This leads to rcu_sched timeout
messages as the stalled CPU is detected by other CPUs, and other issues if
the CPU is holding locks or other resources at the point at which it
stalls.
There have been a couple of observed mechanisms through which a clock event
driver could not satisfy the requested min_delta and return -ETIME.
With the MIPS GIC driver, the shared execution resource within MT cores
means inconventient latency due to execution of instructions from other
hardware threads in the core, within gic_next_event, can result in an event
being set in the past.
Additionally under virtualisation it is possible to get unexpected latency
during a clockevent device's set_next_event() callback which can make it
return -ETIME even for a delta based on min_delta_ns.
It isn't appropriate to use MIN_ADJUST in the virtualisation case as
occasional hypervisor induced high latency will cause min_delta_ns to
quickly increase to the maximum.
Instead, borrow the retry pattern from the MIN_ADJUST case, but without
making adjustments. Retry up to 10 times, each time increasing the
attempted delta by min_delta, before giving up.
[ Matt: Reworked the loop and made retry increase the delta. ]

If the base clock is behind jiffies in the soft irq expiry code then the
next timer is retrieved by get_next_timer_interrupt() to avoid incrementing
base clock one by one. If the next timer interrupt is past current jiffies
then the base clock is set to jiffies - 1. At the call site this is
incremented and another iteration through the expiry loop is executed which
checks empty hash buckets.
That's a pointless excercise because it's already known that the next timer
is past jiffies.
Set the base clock in that case to jiffies directly so it gets incremented
to jiffies + 1 at the call site resulting in immediate termination of the
expiry loop.

The configurable printk timestamping wants access to clock realtime. Right
now there is no ktime_get_real_fast_ns() accessor because reading the
monotonic base and the realtime offset cannot be done atomically. Contrary
to boot time this offset can change during runtime and cause half updated
readouts.
struct tk_read_base was fully packed when the fast timekeeper access was
implemented. commit ceea5e3771 ("time: Fix clock->read(clock) race around
clocksource changes") removed the 'read' function pointer from the
structure, but of course left the comment stale.
So now the structure can fit a new 64bit member w/o violating the cache
line constraints.
Add real_base to tk_read_base and update it in the fast timekeeper update
sequence.
Implement an accessor which follows the same scheme as the accessor to
clock monotonic, but uses the new real_base to access clock real time.
The runtime overhead for updating real_base is minimal as it just adds two
cache hot values and stores them into an already dirtied cache line along
with the other fast timekeeper updates.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This time (again) cpufreq gets the majority of changes which mostly
are driver updates (including a major consolidation of intel_pstate),
some schedutil governor modifications and core cleanups.
There also are some changes in the system suspend area, mostly related
to diagnostics and debug messages plus some renames of things related
to suspend-to-idle. One major change here is that suspend-to-idle is
now going to be preferred over S3 on systems where the ACPI tables
indicate to do so and provide requsite support (the Low Power Idle S0
_DSM in particular). The system sleep documentation and the tools
related to it are updated too.
The rest is a few cpuidle changes (nothing major), devfreq updates,
generic power domains (genpd) framework updates and a few assorted
modifications elsewhere.

In comqit fc6eead7c1 ("time: Clean up CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW time
handling"), the following code got mistakenly added to the update of the
raw timekeeper:
/* Update the monotonic raw base */
seconds = tk->raw_sec;
nsec = (u32)(tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec >> tk->tkr_raw.shift);
tk->tkr_raw.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec);
Which adds the raw_sec value and the shifted down raw xtime_nsec to the
base value.
But the read function adds the shifted down tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec value
another time, The result of this is that ktime_get_raw() users (which are
all internal users) see the raw time move faster then it should (the rate
at which can vary with the current size of tkr_raw.xtime_nsec), which has
resulted in at least problems with graphics rendering performance.
The change tried to match the monotonic base update logic:
seconds = (u64)(tk->xtime_sec + tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec);
nsec = (u32) tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec;
tk->tkr_mono.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec);
Which adds the wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec value, but not the
tk->tkr_mono.xtime_nsec value to the base.
To fix this, simplify the tkr_raw.base accumulation to only accumulate the
raw_sec portion, and do not include the tkr_raw.xtime_nsec portion, which
will be added at read time.

When a timer base is idle, it is forwarded when a new timer is added
to ensure that granularity does not become excessive. When not idle,
the timer tick is expected to increment the base.
However there are several problems:
- If an existing timer is modified, the base is forwarded only after
the index is calculated.
- The base is not forwarded by add_timer_on.
- There is a window after a timer is restarted from a nohz idle, after
it is marked not-idle and before the timer tick on this CPU, where a
timer may be added but the ancient base does not get forwarded.
These result in excessive granularity (a 1 jiffy timeout can blow out
to 100s of jiffies), which cause the rcu lockup detector to trigger,
among other things.
Fix this by keeping track of whether the timer base has been idle
since it was last run or forwarded, and if so then forward it before
adding a new timer.
There is still a case where mod_timer optimises the case of a pending
timer mod with the same expiry time, where the timer can see excessive
granularity relative to the new, shorter interval. A comment is added,
but it's not changed because it is an important fastpath for
networking.
This has been tested and found to fix the RCU softlockup messages.
Testing was also done with tracing to measure requested versus
achieved wakeup latencies for all non-deferrable timers in an idle
system (with no lockup watchdogs running). Wakeup latency relative to
absolute latency is calculated (note this suffers from round-up skew
at low absolute times) and analysed:
max avg std
upstream 506.0 1.20 4.68
patched 2.0 1.08 0.15
The bug was noticed due to the lockup detector Kconfig changes
dropping it out of people's .configs and resulting in larger base
clk skew When the lockup detectors are enabled, no CPU can go idle for
longer than 4 seconds, which limits the granularity errors.
Sub-optimal timer behaviour is observable on a smaller scale in that
case:
max avg std
upstream 9.0 1.05 0.19
patched 2.0 1.04 0.11

Currently the alarmtimer registers a wake-up source unconditionally,
regardless of the system having a (wake-up capable) RTC or not.
Hence the alarmtimer will always show up in
/sys/kernel/debug/wakeup_sources, even if it is not available, and thus
cannot be a wake-up source.
To fix this, postpone registration until a wake-up capable RTC device is
added.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING is enabled the timekeeping_check_update()
function will update status like last_warning and underflow_seen on the
timekeeper.
If there are issues found this state is used to rate limit the warnings
that get printed.
This rate limiting doesn't really really work if stored in real_tk as
the shadow timekeeper is overwritten onto real_tk at the end of every
update_wall_time() call, resetting last_warning and other statuses.
Fix rate limiting by using the shadow_timekeeper for
timekeeping_check_update().

CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD was introduced five years ago

However, PPC and IA64 have yet to make the transition, despite

In the actual set timer implementation the timespec is converted to a
scalar nanoseconds value. If the tv_sec part of the time spec is large
enough the conversion to nanoseconds (sec * NSEC_PER_SEC) overflows 64bit.
Mitigate that by using the timespec_to_ktime() conversion function, which
checks the tv_sec part for a potential mult overflow and clamps the result

Due to how the MONOTONIC_RAW accumulation logic was handled,
there is the potential for a 1ns discontinuity when we do
accumulations. This small discontinuity has for the most part
gone un-noticed, but since ARM64 enabled CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
in their vDSO clock_gettime implementation, we've seen failures
with the inconsistency-check test in kselftest.
This patch addresses the issue by using the same sub-ns
accumulation handling that CLOCK_MONOTONIC uses, which avoids
the issue for in-kernel users.
Since the ARM64 vDSO implementation has its own clock_gettime
calculation logic, this patch reduces the frequency of errors,
but failures are still seen. The ARM64 vDSO will need to be
updated to include the sub-nanosecond xtime_nsec values in its
calculation for this issue to be completely fixed.

In tests, which excercise switching of clocksources, a NULL
pointer dereference can be observed on AMR64 platforms in the
clocksource read() function:
u64 clocksource_mmio_readl_down(struct clocksource *c)
{
return ~(u64)readl_relaxed(to_mmio_clksrc(c)->reg) & c->mask;
}
This is called from the core timekeeping code via:
cycle_now = tkr->read(tkr->clock);
tkr->read is the cached tkr->clock->read() function pointer.
When the clocksource is changed then tkr->clock and tkr->read
are updated sequentially. The code above results in a sequential
load operation of tkr->read and tkr->clock as well.
If the store to tkr->clock hits between the loads of tkr->read
and tkr->clock, then the old read() function is called with the
new clock pointer. As a consequence the read() function
dereferences a different data structure and the resulting 'reg'
pointer can point anywhere including NULL.
This problem was introduced when the timekeeping code was
switched over to use struct tk_read_base. Before that, it was
theoretically possible as well when the compiler decided to
reload clock in the code sequence:
now = tk->clock->read(tk->clock);
Add a helper function which avoids the issue by reading
tk_read_base->clock once into a local variable clk and then issue
the read function via clk->read(clk). This guarantees that the
read() function always gets the proper clocksource pointer handed
in.
Since there is now no use for the tkr.read pointer, this patch
also removes it, and to address stopping the fast timekeeper
during suspend/resume, it introduces a dummy clocksource to use
rather then just a dummy read function.

The sanity check ensuring that the tick expiry cache (ts->next_tick)
is actually in sync with the hardware clock (dev->next_event) makes the
wrong assumption that the clock can't be programmed later than the
hrtimer deadline.
In fact the clock hardware can be programmed later on some conditions
such as:
* The hrtimer deadline is already in the past.
* The hrtimer deadline is earlier than the minimum delay supported
by the hardware.
Such conditions can be met when we program the tick, for example if the
last jiffies update hasn't been seen by the current CPU yet, we may
program the hrtimer to a deadline that is earlier than ktime_get()
because last_jiffies_update is our timestamp base to compute the next
tick.
As a result, we can randomly observe such warning:
WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 0 at kernel/time/tick-sched.c:794 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick kernel/time/tick-sched.c:791 [inline]
Call Trace:
tick_nohz_irq_exit
tick_irq_exit
irq_exit
exiting_irq
smp_call_function_interrupt
smp_call_function_single_interrupt
call_function_single_interrupt
Therefore, let's rather make sure that the tick expiry cache is sync'ed
with the tick hrtimer deadline, against which it is not supposed to
drift away. The clock hardware instead has its own will and can't be
used as a reliable comparison point.

[ Minor readability edit. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
The recent rework of the posix timer internals broke the magic posix
mechanism, which requires that relative timers are not affected by
modifications of the underlying clock. That means relative CLOCK_REALTIME
timers cannot use CLOCK_REALTIME, because that can be set and adjusted. The
underlying hrtimer switches the clock for these timers to CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
That still works, but reading the remaining time of such a timer has been
broken in the rework. The old code used the hrtimer internals directly and
avoided the posix clock callbacks. Now common_timer_get() uses the
underlying kclock->timer_get() callback, which is still CLOCK_REALTIME
based. So the remaining time of such a timer is calculated against the
wrong time base.
Handle it by switching the k_itimer->kclock pointer according to the
resulting hrtimer mode. k_itimer->it_clock still contains CLOCK_REALTIME
because the timer might be set with ABSTIME later and then it needs to
switch back to the realtime posix clock implementation.

When the tick is stopped and we reach the dynticks evaluation code on
IRQ exit, we perform a soft tick restart if we observe an expired timer
from there. It means we program the nearest possible tick but we stay in
dynticks mode (ts->tick_stopped = 1) because we may need to stop the tick
again after that expired timer is handled.
Now this solution works most of the time but if we suffer an IRQ storm
and those interrupts trigger faster than the hardware clockevents min
delay, our tick won't fire until that IRQ storm is finished.
Here is the problem: on IRQ exit we reprog the timer to at least
NOW() + min_clockevents_delay. Another IRQ fires before the tick so we
reschedule again to NOW() + min_clockevents_delay, etc... The tick
is eternally rescheduled min_clockevents_delay ahead.
A solution is to simply remove this soft tick restart. After all
the normal dynticks evaluation path can handle 0 delay just fine. And
by doing that we benefit from the optimization branch which avoids
clock reprogramming if the clockevents deadline hasn't changed since
the last reprog. This fixes our issue because we don't do repetitive
clock reprog that always add hardware min delay.
As a side effect it should even optimize the 0 delay path in general.

The only user of this facility is ptp_clock, which does not implement any of
those functions.
Remove them to prevent accidental users. Especially the interval timer
interfaces are now more or less impossible to implement because the
necessary infrastructure has been confined to the core code. Aside of that
it's really complex to make these callbacks implemented according to spec
as the alarm timer implementation demonstrates. If at all then a nanosleep
callback might be a reasonable extension. For now keep just what ptp_clock
needs.

The alarmtimer code has another source of potentially rearming itself too
fast. Interval timers with a very samll interval have a similar CPU hog
effect as the previously fixed overflow issue.
The reason is that alarmtimers do not implement the normal protection
against this kind of problem which the other posix timer use:
timer expires -> queue signal -> deliver signal -> rearm timer
This scheme brings the rearming under scheduler control and prevents
permanently firing timers which hog the CPU.
Bringing this scheme to the alarm timer code is a major overhaul because it
lacks all the necessary mechanisms completely.
So for a quick fix limit the interval to one jiffie. This is not
problematic in practice as alarmtimers are usually backed by an RTC for
suspend which have 1 second resolution. It could be therefor argued that
the resolution of this clock should be set to 1 second in general, but
that's outside the scope of this fix.

Andrey reported a alartimer related RCU stall while fuzzing the kernel with
syzkaller.
The reason for this is an overflow in ktime_add() which brings the
resulting time into negative space and causes immediate expiry of the
timer. The following rearm with a small interval does not bring the timer
back into positive space due to the same issue.
This results in a permanent firing alarmtimer which hogs the CPU.
Use ktime_add_safe() instead which detects the overflow and clamps the
result to KTIME_SEC_MAX.

There are no more modular users providing a posix clock. The register
function is now pointless so the posix clock array can be initialized
statically at compile time and the array including the various k_clock
structs can be marked 'const'.
Inspired by changes in the Grsecurity patch set, but done proper.

This restores commit:
24b91e360ef5: ("nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimers")
... which got reverted by commit:
558e8e27e73f: ('Revert "nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimers"')
... due to a regression where CPUs spuriously stopped ticking.
The bug happened when a tick fired too early past its expected expiration:
on IRQ exit the tick was scheduled again to the same deadline but skipped
reprogramming because ts->next_tick still kept in cache the deadline.
This has been fixed now with resetting ts->next_tick from the tick
itself. Extra care has also been taken to prevent from obsolete values
throughout CPU hotplug operations.
When the tick is stopped and an interrupt occurs afterward, we check on
that interrupt exit if the next tick needs to be rescheduled. If it
doesn't need any update, we don't want to do anything.
In order to check if the tick needs an update, we compare it against the
clockevent device deadline. Now that's a problem because the clockevent
device is at a lower level than the tick itself if it is implemented
on top of hrtimer.
Every hrtimer share this clockevent device. So comparing the next tick
deadline against the clockevent device deadline is wrong because the
device may be programmed for another hrtimer whose deadline collides
with the tick. As a result we may end up not reprogramming the tick
accidentally.
In a worst case scenario under full dynticks mode, the tick stops firing
as it is supposed to every 1hz, leaving /proc/stat stalled:
Task in a full dynticks CPU
----------------------------
* hrtimer A is queued 2 seconds ahead
* the tick is stopped, scheduled 1 second ahead
* tick fires 1 second later
* on tick exit, nohz schedules the tick 1 second ahead but sees
the clockevent device is already programmed to that deadline,
fooled by hrtimer A, the tick isn't rescheduled.
* hrtimer A is cancelled before its deadline
* tick never fires again until an interrupt happens...
In order to fix this, store the next tick deadline to the tick_sched
local structure and reuse that value later to check whether we need to
reprogram the clock after an interrupt.
On the other hand, ts->sleep_length still wants to know about the next
clock event and not just the tick, so we want to improve the related
comment to avoid confusion.

Currently we keep sched_clock_tick() active for stable TSC in order to
keep the per-CPU state semi up-to-date. The (obvious) problem is that
by the time we detect TSC is borked, our per-CPU state is also borked.
So hook into the clocksource watchdog and call a method after we've
found it to still be stable.
There's the obvious race where the TSC goes wonky between finding it
stable and us running the callback, but closing that is too much work
and not really worth it, since we're already detecting TSC wobbles
after the fact, so we cannot, per definition, fully avoid funny clock
values.
And since the watchdog runs less often than the tick, this is also an
optimization.

On systems with a large number of CPUs, running sysrq-<q> can cause
watchdog timeouts. There are two slow sections of code in the sysrq-<q>
path in timer_list.c.
1. print_active_timers() - This function is called by print_cpu() and
contains a slow goto loop. On a machine with hundreds of CPUs, this
loop took approximately 100ms for the first CPU in a NUMA node.
(Subsequent CPUs in the same node ran much quicker.) The total time
to print all of the CPUs is ultimately long enough to trigger the
soft lockup watchdog.
2. print_tickdevice() - This function outputs a large amount of textual
information. This function also took approximately 100ms per CPU.
Since sysrq-<q> is not a performance critical path, there should be no
harm in touching the nmi watchdog in both slow sections above. Touching
it in just one location was insufficient on systems with hundreds of
CPUs as occasional timeouts were still observed during testing.
This issue was observed on an Oracle T7 machine with 128 CPUs, but I
anticipate it may affect other systems with similarly large numbers of
CPUs.

The scheduler clock framework may not use the correct timeout for the clock
wrap. This happens when a new clock driver calls sched_clock_register()
after the kernel called sched_clock_postinit(). In this case the clock wrap
timeout is too long thus sched_clock_poll() is called too late and the clock
already wrapped.
On my ARM system the scheduler was no longer scheduling any other task than
the idle task because the sched_clock() wrapped.

For the configuration at registration, we already have
clockevents_config_and_register().
Right now, there are no clockevents_config() users outside of the
clockevents core.

through clockevents_config() *after* device registration, make

The way the schedutil governor uses the PELT metric causes it to
underestimate the CPU utilization in some cases.
That can be easily demonstrated by running kernel compilation on
a Sandy Bridge Intel processor, running turbostat in parallel with
it and looking at the values written to the MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL
register. Namely, the expected result would be that when all CPUs
were 100% busy, all of them would be requested to run in the maximum
P-state, but observation shows that this clearly isn't the case.
The CPUs run in the maximum P-state for a while and then are
requested to run slower and go back to the maximum P-state after
a while again. That causes the actual frequency of the processor to
visibly oscillate below the sustainable maximum in a jittery fashion
which clearly is not desirable.
That has been attributed to CPU utilization metric updates on task
migration that cause the total utilization value for the CPU to be
reduced by the utilization of the migrated task. If that happens,
the schedutil governor may see a CPU utilization reduction and will
attempt to reduce the CPU frequency accordingly right away. That
may be premature, though, for example if the system is generally
busy and there are other runnable tasks waiting to be run on that
CPU already.
This is unlikely to be an issue on systems where cpufreq policies are
shared between multiple CPUs, because in those cases the policy
utilization is computed as the maximum of the CPU utilization values
over the whole policy and if that turns out to be low, reducing the
frequency for the policy most likely is a good idea anyway. On
systems with one CPU per policy, however, it may affect performance
adversely and even lead to increased energy consumption in some cases.
On those systems it may be addressed by taking another utilization
metric into consideration, like whether or not the CPU whose
frequency is about to be reduced has been idle recently, because if
that's not the case, the CPU is likely to be busy in the near future
and its frequency should not be reduced.
To that end, use the counter of idle calls in the timekeeping code.
Namely, make the schedutil governor look at that counter for the
current CPU every time before its frequency is about to be reduced.
If the counter has not changed since the previous iteration of the
governor computations for that CPU, the CPU has been busy for all
that time and its frequency should not be decreased, so if the new
frequency would be lower than the one set previously, the governor
will skip the frequency update.

When a process is sent a SIGKILL because it exceeded CPU or RT limits,
the cause may not be obvious in userspace -- daemonised processes just
get killed, and even foreground process just see a 'Killed' message. The
lack of any information on why this might be happening in logs can be
confusing to users who are not aware of this mechanism.

"The main changes in this (fairly busy) cycle were:
- There was a class of scheduler bugs related to forgetting to update
the rq-clock timestamp which can cause weird and hard to debug
problems, so there's a new debug facility for this: which uncovered
a whole lot of bugs which convinced us that we want to keep the
debug facility.
(Peter Zijlstra, Matt Fleming)
- Various cputime related updates: eliminate cputime and use u64
nanoseconds directly, simplify and improve the arch interfaces,
implement delayed accounting more widely, etc. - (Frederic
Weisbecker)
- Move code around for better structure plus cleanups (Ingo Molnar)
- Move IO schedule accounting deeper into the scheduler plus related
changes to improve the situation (Tejun Heo)
- ... plus a round of sched/rt and sched/deadline fixes, plus other
fixes, updats and cleanups"

commit 82e88ff1ea ("hrtimer: Revert CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW support") removed
unfortunately a sanity check in the hrtimer code which was part of that
MONOTONIC_RAW patch series.
It would have caught the bogus usage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in the wireless
code. So bring it back.
It is way too easy to take any random clockid and feed it to the hrtimer
subsystem. At best, it gets mapped to a monotonic base, but it would be
better to just catch illegal values as early as possible.
Detect invalid clockids, map them to CLOCK_MONOTONIC and emit a warning.

This reverts commit 24b91e360e and commit
7bdb59f1ad ("tick/nohz: Fix possible missing clock reprog after tick

Pavel reports that it causes occasional boot hangs for him that seem to
depend on just how the machine was booted. In particular, his machine
hangs at around the PCI fixups of the EHCI USB host controller, but only
hangs from cold boot, not from a warm boot.
Thomas Gleixner suspecs it's a CPU hotplug interaction, particularly
since Pavel also saw suspend/resume issues that seem to be related.
We're reverting for now while trying to figure out the root cause.

tick_broadcast_lock is taken from interrupt context, but the following call
chain takes the lock without disabling interrupts:
[ 12.703736] _raw_spin_lock+0x3b/0x50
[ 12.703738] tick_broadcast_control+0x5a/0x1a0
[ 12.703742] intel_idle_cpu_online+0x22/0x100

[ 12.703752] cpuhp_thread_fun+0x52/0x110
[ 12.703754] smpboot_thread_fn+0x276/0x320
So the following deadlock can happen:
lock(tick_broadcast_lock);
<Interrupt>
lock(tick_broadcast_lock);
intel_idle_cpu_online() is the only place which violates the calling
convention of tick_broadcast_control(). This was caused by the removal of
the smp function call in course of the cpu hotplug rework.
Instead of slapping local_irq_disable/enable() at the call site, we can
relax the calling convention and handle it in the core code, which makes
the whole machinery more robust.

ts->next_tick keeps track of the next tick deadline in order to optimize
clock programmation on irq exit and avoid redundant clock device writes.
Now if ts->next_tick missed an update, we may spuriously miss a clock
reprog later as the nohz code is fooled by an obsolete next_tick value.
This is what happens here on a specific path: when we observe an
expired timer from the nohz update code on irq exit, we perform a soft
tick restart which simply fires the closest possible tick without
actually exiting the nohz mode and restoring a periodic state. But we
forget to update ts->next_tick accordingly.
As a result, after the next tick resulting from such soft tick restart,
the nohz code sees a stale value on ts->next_tick which doesn't match
the clock deadline that just expired. If that obsolete ts->next_tick
value happens to collide with the actual next tick deadline to be
scheduled, we may spuriously bypass the clock reprogramming. In the
worst case, the tick may never fire again.
Fix this with a ts->next_tick reset on soft tick restart.

It was observed that on an Intel x86 system without the ARAT (Always
running APIC timer) feature and with fairly large number of CPUs as
well as CPUs coming in and out of intel_idle frequently, the lock
contention on the tick_broadcast_lock can become significant.
To reduce contention, the lock is put into its own cacheline and all
the cpumask_var_t variables are put into the __read_mostly section.
Running the SP benchmark of the NAS Parallel Benchmarks on a 4-socket
16-core 32-thread Nehalam system, the performance number improved
from 3353.94 Mop/s to 3469.31 Mop/s when this patch was applied on
a 4.9.6 kernel. This is a 3.4% improvement.

When the tick is stopped and an interrupt occurs afterward, we check on
that interrupt exit if the next tick needs to be rescheduled. If it
doesn't need any update, we don't want to do anything.
In order to check if the tick needs an update, we compare it against the
clockevent device deadline. Now that's a problem because the clockevent
device is at a lower level than the tick itself if it is implemented
on top of hrtimer.
Every hrtimer share this clockevent device. So comparing the next tick
deadline against the clockevent device deadline is wrong because the
device may be programmed for another hrtimer whose deadline collides
with the tick. As a result we may end up not reprogramming the tick
accidentally.
In a worst case scenario under full dynticks mode, the tick stops firing
as it is supposed to every 1hz, leaving /proc/stat stalled:
Task in a full dynticks CPU
----------------------------
* hrtimer A is queued 2 seconds ahead
* the tick is stopped, scheduled 1 second ahead
* tick fires 1 second later
* on tick exit, nohz schedules the tick 1 second ahead but sees
the clockevent device is already programmed to that deadline,
fooled by hrtimer A, the tick isn't rescheduled.
* hrtimer A is cancelled before its deadline
* tick never fires again until an interrupt happens...
In order to fix this, store the next tick deadline to the tick_sched
local structure and reuse that value later to check whether we need to
reprogram the clock after an interrupt.
On the other hand, ts->sleep_length still wants to know about the next
clock event and not just the tick, so we want to improve the related
comment to avoid confusion.

become completely pointless.

Pull smp hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This is the final round of converting the notifier mess to the state
machine. The removal of the notifiers and the related infrastructure
will happen around rc1, as there are conversions outstanding in other
trees.
The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in
course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new
mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so
usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively.
There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the
pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing,
setting cpus online etc into the core code"

The clocksource delta to nanoseconds conversion is using signed math, but
the delta is unsigned. This makes the conversion space smaller than
necessary and in case of a multiplication overflow the conversion can
become negative. The conversion is done with scaled math:
s64 nsec_delta = ((s64)clkdelta * clk->mult) >> clk->shift;
Shifting a signed integer right obvioulsy preserves the sign, which has
interesting consequences:
- Time jumps backwards
- __iter_div_u64_rem() which is used in one of the calling code pathes
will take forever to piecewise calculate the seconds/nanoseconds part.
This has been reported by several people with different scenarios:
David observed that when stopping a VM with a debugger:
"It was essentially the stopped by debugger case. I forget exactly why,
but the guest was being explicitly stopped from outside, it wasn't just
scheduling lag. I think it was something in the vicinity of 10 minutes
stopped."
When lifting the stop the machine went dead.
The stopped by debugger case is not really interesting, but nevertheless it
would be a good thing not to die completely.
But this was also observed on a live system by Liav:
"When the OS is too overloaded, delta will get a high enough value for the
msb of the sum delta * tkr->mult + tkr->xtime_nsec to be set, and so
after the shift the nsec variable will gain a value similar to
0xffffffffff000000."
Unfortunately this has been reintroduced recently with commit 6bd58f09e1
("time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation"). It had been fixed a year
ago already in commit 35a4933a89 ("time: Avoid signed overflow in
timekeeping_get_ns()").
Though it's not surprising that the issue has been reintroduced because the
function itself and the whole call chain uses s64 for the result and the
propagation of it. The change in this recent commit is subtle:
s64 nsec;
- nsec = (d * m + n) >> s:
+ nsec = d * m + n;
+ nsec >>= s;
d being type of cycle_t adds another level of obfuscation.
This wouldn't have happened if the previous change to unsigned computation
would have made the 'nsec' variable u64 right away and a follow up patch
had cleaned up the whole call chain.
There have been patches submitted which basically did a revert of the above
patch leaving everything else unchanged as signed. Back to square one. This
spawned a admittedly pointless discussion about potential users which rely
on the unsigned behaviour until someone pointed out that it had been fixed
before. The changelogs of said patches added further confusion as they made
finally false claims about the consequences for eventual users which expect
signed results.
Despite delta being cycle_t, aka. u64, it's very well possible to hand in
a signed negative value and the signed computation will happily return the
correct result. But nobody actually sat down and analyzed the code which
was added as user after the propably unintended signed conversion.
Though in sensitive code like this it's better to analyze it proper and
make sure that nothing relies on this than hunting the subtle wreckage half
a year later. After analyzing all call chains it stands that no caller can
hand in a negative value (which actually would work due to the s64 cast)
and rely on the signed math to do the right thing.
Change the conversion function to unsigned math. The conversion of all call
chains is done in a follow up patch.
This solves the starvation issue, which was caused by the negative result,
but it does not solve the underlying problem. It merily procrastinates
it. When the timekeeper update is deferred long enough that the unsigned
multiplication overflows, then time going backwards is observable again.
It does neither solve the issue of clocksources with a small counter width
which will wrap around possibly several times and cause random time stamps
to be generated. But those are usually not found on systems used for
virtualization, so this is likely a non issue.
I took the liberty to claim authorship for this simply because
analyzing all callsites and writing the changelog took substantially
more time than just making the simple s/s64/u64/ change and ignore the
rest.

The CPSW CPTS driver is capable of doing timestamping on tx/rx packets and
requires to know mult and shift factors for timestamp conversion from raw
value to nanoseconds (ptp clock). Now these mult and shift factors are
calculated manually and provided through DT, which makes very hard to
support of a lot number of platforms, especially if CPTS refclk is not the
same for some kind of boards and depends on efuse settings (Keystone 2
platforms). Hence, export clocks_calc_mult_shift() to allow drivers like
CPSW CPTS (and other ptp drivesr) to benefit from automaitc calculation of
mult and shift factors.

Alarm timers are one of the mechanisms to wake up a system from suspend,
but there exist no tracepoints to analyse which process/thread armed an
alarmtimer.
Add tracepoints for start/cancel/expire of individual alarm timers and one
for tracing the suspend time decision when to resume the system.
The following trace excerpt illustrates the new mechanism:

The wakeup time which is selected at suspend time allows to map it back to

This boot clock can be used as a tracing clock and will account for
suspend time.
To keep it NMI safe since we're accessing from tracing, we're not using a
separate timekeeper with updates to monotonic clock and boot offset
protected with seqlocks. This has the following minor side effects:
(1) Its possible that a timestamp be taken after the boot offset is updated
but before the timekeeper is updated. If this happens, the new boot offset
is added to the old timekeeping making the clock appear to update slightly
earlier:
CPU 0 CPU 1
timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64()
__timekeeping_inject_sleeptime(tk, delta);
timestamp();
timekeeping_update(tk, TK_CLEAR_NTP...);
(2) On 32-bit systems, the 64-bit boot offset (tk->offs_boot) may be
partially updated. Since the tk->offs_boot update is a rare event, this
should be a rare occurrence which postprocessing should be able to handle.

Some embedded systems have no use for them. This removes about
25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out.
Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to
use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were
disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create,
timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete,
clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm.
The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep
syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast
majority of use cases with very little code.

The documentation for schedule_timeout(), schedule_hrtimeout(), and
schedule_hrtimeout_range() all claim that the routines couldn't possibly
return early if the task state was TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. This is simply
not true since wake_up_process() will cause those routines to exit early.
We cannot make schedule_[hr]timeout() loop until the timeout expires if the
task state is uninterruptible because we have users which rely on the
existing and designed behaviour.
Make the documentation match the (correct) implementation.
schedule_hrtimeout() returns -EINTR even when a uninterruptible task was
woken up. This might look strange, but making the return code depend on the
state is too much of an effort as it would affect all the call sites. There
is no value in doing so, but we spell it out clearly in the documentation.

Users of usleep_range() expect that it will _never_ return in less time
than the minimum passed parameter. However, nothing in the code ensures
this, when the sleeping task is woken by wake_up_process() or any other
mechanism which can wake a task from uninterruptible state.
Neither usleep_range() nor schedule_hrtimeout_range*() have any protection
against wakeups. schedule_hrtimeout_range*() is designed this way despite
the fact that the API documentation does not mention it.
msleep() already has code to handle this case since it will loop as long
as there was still time left. usleep_range() has no such loop, add it.
Presumably this problem was not detected before because usleep_range() is
only used in a few places and the function is mostly used in contexts which
are not exposed to wakeups of any form.
An effort was made to look for users relying on the old behavior by
looking for usleep_range() in the same file as wake_up_process().
No problems were found by this search, though it is conceivable that
someone could have put the sleep and wakeup in two different files.
An effort was made to ask several upstream maintainers if they were aware
of people relying on wake_up_process() to wake up usleep_range(). No
maintainers were aware of that but they were aware of many people relying
on usleep_range() never returning before the minimum.

When a timer is enqueued we try to forward the timer base clock. This
mechanism has two issues:
1) Forwarding a remote base unlocked
The forwarding function is called from get_target_base() with the current
timer base lock held. But if the new target base is a different base than
the current base (can happen with NOHZ, sigh!) then the forwarding is done
on an unlocked base. This can lead to corruption of base->clk.
Solution is simple: Invoke the forwarding after the target base is locked.
2) Possible corruption due to jiffies advancing
This is similar to the issue in get_net_timer_interrupt() which was fixed
in the previous patch. jiffies can advance between check and assignement
and therefore advancing base->clk beyond the next expiry value.
So we need to read jiffies into a local variable once and do the checks and
assignment with the local copy.

Ashton and Michael reported, that kernel versions 4.8 and later suffer from
USB timeouts which are caused by the timer wheel rework.
This is caused by a bug in the base clock forwarding mechanism, which leads
to timers expiring early. The scenario which leads to this is:
run_timers()
while (jiffies >= base->clk) {
collect_expired_timers();
base->clk++;
expire_timers();
}
So base->clk = jiffies + 1. Now the cpu goes idle:
idle()
get_next_timer_interrupt()
nextevt = __next_time_interrupt();
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies has not advanced since run_timers(), so this assignment effectively
decrements base->clk by one.
base->clk is the index into the timer wheel arrays. So let's assume the
following state after the base->clk increment in run_timers():
jiffies = 0
base->clk = 1
A timer gets enqueued with an expiry delta of 63 ticks (which is the case
with the USB timeout and HZ=250) so the resulting bucket index is:
base->clk + delta = 1 + 63 = 64
The timer goes into the first wheel level. The array size is 64 so it ends
up in bucket 0, which is correct as it takes 63 ticks to advance base->clk
to index into bucket 0 again.
If the cpu goes idle before jiffies advance, then the bug in the forwarding
mechanism sets base->clk back to 0, so the next invocation of run_timers()
at the next tick will index into bucket 0 and therefore expire the timer 62
ticks too early.
Instead of blindly setting base->clk to jiffies we must make the forwarding
conditional on jiffies > base->clk, but we cannot use jiffies for this as
we might run into the following issue:
if (time_after(jiffies, base->clk) {
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies can increment between the check and the assigment far enough to
advance beyond nextevt. So we need to use a stable value for checking.
get_next_timer_interrupt() has the basej argument which is the jiffies
value snapshot taken in the calling code. So we can just that.
Thanks to Ashton for bisecting and providing trace data!

Linus stumbled over the unlocked modification of the timer expiry value in
mod_timer() which is an optimization for timers which stay in the same
bucket - due to the bucket granularity - despite their expiry time getting
updated.
The optimization itself still makes sense even if we take the lock, because
in case that the bucket stays the same, we avoid the pointless
queue/enqueue dance.
Make the check and the modification of timer->expires protected by the base
lock and shuffle the remaining code around so we can keep the lock held
when we actually have to requeue the timer to a different bucket.

Linus noticed that lock_timer_base() lacks a READ_ONCE() for accessing the
timer flags. As a consequence the compiler is allowed to reload the flags
between the initial check for TIMER_MIGRATION and the following timer base
computation and the spin lock of the base.
While this has not been observed (yet), we need to make sure that it never
happens.

gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.

can_stop_full_tick() has no check for offline cpus. So it allows to stop
the tick on an offline cpu from the interrupt return path, which is wrong
and subsequently makes irq_work_needs_cpu() warn about being called for an
offline cpu.
Commit f7ea0fd639 ("tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if
the cpu is offline") added prevention for can_stop_idle_tick(), but forgot
to do the same in can_stop_full_tick(). Add it.

The idle and iowait states are weird 0 for cpu0(housekeeping).
The bug is present in both guest and host kernels, and they both have
cpu0's idle and iowait states issue, however, host kernel's suspend/resume
path etc will touch watchdog to avoid the softlockup.
- The watchdog will not be touched in tick_nohz_stop_idle path (need be
touched since the scheduler stall is expected) if idle_active flags are
not detected.
- The idle and iowait states will not be accounted when exit idle loop
(resched or interrupt) if idle start time and idle_active flags are
not set.
This patch fixes it by reverting commit 1f3b0f8243 since can't stop
idle tick doesn't mean can't be idle.

Line 783 is this:
783 set_normalized_timespec64(&res, lhs.tv_sec + rhs.tv_sec,
784 lhs.tv_nsec + rhs.tv_nsec);
In other words, since lhs.tv_sec and rhs.tv_sec are both time64_t, this
is a signed addition which will cause undefined behaviour on overflow.
Note that this is not currently a huge concern since the kernel should be
built with -fno-strict-overflow by default, but could be a problem in the
future, a problem with older compilers, or other compilers than gcc.
The easiest way to avoid the overflow is to cast one of the arguments to
unsigned (so the addition will be done using unsigned arithmetic).

Clocksources don't get the VALID_FOR_HRES flag until they have been
checked by a watchdog. However, when using an override, the
clocksource_select logic will clear the override value if the
clocksource is not marked VALID_FOR_HRES during that inititial check.
When using the boot arguments clocksource=<foo>, this selection can
run before the watchdog, and can cause the override to be incorrectly
cleared.
To address this condition, the override_name is only invalidated for
unstable clocksources. Otherwise, the override is left intact until after
the watchdog has validated the clocksource as stable/unstable.

It was reported that hibernation could fail on the 2nd attempt, where the
system hangs at hibernate() -> syscore_resume() -> i8237A_resume() ->
claim_dma_lock(), because the lock has already been taken.
However there is actually no other process would like to grab this lock on
that problematic platform.
Further investigation showed that the problem is triggered by setting
/sys/power/pm_trace to 1 before the 1st hibernation.
Since once pm_trace is enabled, the rtc becomes unmeaningful after suspend,
and meanwhile some BIOSes would like to adjust the 'invalid' RTC (e.g, smaller
than 1970) to the release date of that motherboard during POST stage, thus
after resumed, it may seem that the system had a significant long sleep time
which is a completely meaningless value.
Then in timekeeping_resume -> tk_debug_account_sleep_time, if the bit31 of the
sleep time happened to be set to 1, fls() returns 32 and we add 1 to
sleep_time_bin[32], which causes an out of bounds array access and therefor
memory being overwritten.
As depicted by System.map:
0xffffffff81c9d080 b sleep_time_bin
0xffffffff81c9d100 B dma_spin_lock
the dma_spin_lock.val is set to 1, which caused this problem.
This patch adds a sanity check in tk_debug_account_sleep_time()
to ensure we don't index past the sleep_time_bin array.
[jstultz: Problem diagnosed and original patch by Chen Yu, I've solved the
issue slightly differently, but borrowed his excelent explanation of the
issue here.]

When I added some extra sanity checking in timekeeping_get_ns() under
CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING, I missed that the NMI safe __ktime_get_fast_ns()
method was using timekeeping_get_ns().
Thus the locking added to the debug checks broke the NMI-safety of
__ktime_get_fast_ns().
This patch open-codes the timekeeping_get_ns() logic for
__ktime_get_fast_ns(), so can avoid any deadlocks in NMI.

The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() routine is not properly
canceling the sched timer when nothing is pending, because
get_next_timer_interrupt() is no longer returning KTIME_MAX in
that case. This causes periodic interrupts when none are needed.
When determining the next interrupt time, we first use
__next_timer_interrupt() to get the first expiring timer in the
timer wheel. If no timer is found, we return the base clock value
plus NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA to indicate there is no timer in the
timer wheel.
Back in get_next_timer_interrupt(), we set the "expires" value
by converting the timer wheel expiry (in ticks) to a nsec value.
But we don't want to do this if the timer wheel expiry value
indicates no timer; we want to return KTIME_MAX.
Prior to commit 500462a9de ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading
wheel") we checked base->active_timers to see if any timers
were active, and if not, we didn't touch the expiry value and so
properly returned KTIME_MAX. Now we don't have active_timers.
To fix this, we now just check the timer wheel expiry value to
see if it is "now + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA", and if it is, we don't
try to compute a new value based on it, but instead simply let the
KTIME_MAX value in expires remain.

tick_nohz_start_idle is called before checking whether the idle tick can be
stopped. If the tick cannot be stopped, calling tick_nohz_start_idle() is
pointless and just wasting CPU cycles.
Only invoke tick_nohz_start_idle() when can_stop_idle_tick() returns true. A
short one minute observation of the effect on ARM64 shows a reduction of calls
by 1.5% thus optimizing the idle entry sequence.

When tearing down, call timers_dead_cpu() before notify_dead().
There is a hidden dependency between:

If timers_dead_cpu() comes later than blk_mq_queue_reinit_notify()
that latter function causes a RCU stall.

The existing optimization for same expiry time in mod_timer() checks whether
the timer expiry time is the same as the new requested expiry time. In the old
timer wheel implementation this does not take the slack batching into account,
neither does the new implementation evaluate whether the new expiry time will
requeue the timer to the same bucket.
To optimize that, we can calculate the resulting bucket and check if the new
expiry time is different from the current expiry time. This calculation
happens outside the base lock held region. If the resulting bucket is the same
we can avoid taking the base lock and requeueing the timer.
If the timer needs to be requeued then we have to check under the base lock
whether the base time has changed between the lockless calculation and taking
the lock. If it has changed we need to recalculate under the lock.
This optimization takes effect for timers which are enqueued into the less
granular wheel levels (1 and above). With a simple test case the functionality
has been verified:
Before After
Match: 5.5% 86.6%
Requeue: 94.5% 13.4%
Recalc: <0.01%
In the non optimized case the timer is requeued in 94.5% of the cases. With
the index optimization in place the requeue rate drops to 13.4%. The case
where the lockless index calculation has to be redone is less than 0.01%.
With a real world test case (networking) we observed the following changes:
Before After
Match: 97.8% 99.7%
Requeue: 2.2% 0.3%
Recalc: <0.001%
That means two percent fewer lock/requeue/unlock operations done in one of
the hot path use cases of timers.

The wheel clock is stale when a CPU goes into a long idle sleep. This has the
side effect that timers which are queued end up in the outer wheel levels.
That results in coarser granularity.
To solve this, we keep track of the idle state and forward the wheel clock
whenever possible.

After a NOHZ idle sleep the timer wheel must be forwarded to current jiffies.
There might be expired timers so the current code loops and checks the expired
buckets for timers. This can take quite some time for long NOHZ idle periods.
The pending bitmask in the timer base allows us to do a quick search for the
next expiring timer and therefore a fast forward of the base time which
prevents pointless long lasting loops.
For a 3 seconds idle sleep this reduces the catchup time from ~1ms to 5us.

The current timer wheel has some drawbacks:
1) Cascading:
Cascading can be an unbound operation and is completely pointless in most
cases because the vast majority of the timer wheel timers are canceled or
rearmed before expiration. (They are used as timeout safeguards, not as
real timers to measure time.)
2) No fast lookup of the next expiring timer:
In NOHZ scenarios the first timer soft interrupt after a long NOHZ period
must fast forward the base time to the current value of jiffies. As we
have no way to find the next expiring timer fast, the code loops linearly
and increments the base time one by one and checks for expired timers
in each step. This causes unbound overhead spikes exactly in the moment
when we should wake up as fast as possible.
After a thorough analysis of real world data gathered on laptops,
workstations, webservers and other machines (thanks Chris!) I came to the
conclusion that the current 'classic' timer wheel implementation can be
modified to address the above issues.
The vast majority of timer wheel timers is canceled or rearmed before
expiry. Most of them are timeouts for networking and other I/O tasks. The
nature of timeouts is to catch the exception from normal operation (TCP ack
timed out, disk does not respond, etc.). For these kinds of timeouts the
accuracy of the timeout is not really a concern. Timeouts are very often
approximate worst-case values and in case the timeout fires, we already
waited for a long time and performance is down the drain already.
The few timers which actually expire can be split into two categories:
1) Short expiry times which expect halfways accurate expiry
2) Long term expiry times are inaccurate today already due to the
batching which is done for NOHZ automatically and also via the
set_timer_slack() API.
So for long term expiry timers we can avoid the cascading property and just
leave them in the less granular outer wheels until expiry or
cancelation. Timers which are armed with a timeout larger than the wheel
capacity are no longer cascaded. We expire them with the longest possible
timeout (6+ days). We have not observed such timeouts in our data collection,
but at least we handle them, applying the rule of the least surprise.
To avoid extending the wheel levels for HZ=1000 so we can accomodate the
longest observed timeouts (5 days in the network conntrack code) we reduce the
first level granularity on HZ=1000 to 4ms, which effectively is the same as
the HZ=250 behaviour. From our data analysis there is nothing which relies on
that 1ms granularity and as a side effect we get better batching and timer
locality for the networking code as well.
Contrary to the classic wheel the granularity of the next wheel is not the
capacity of the first wheel. The granularities of the wheels are in the
currently chosen setting 8 times the granularity of the previous wheel.
So for HZ=250 we end up with the following granularity levels:
Level Offset Granularity Range
0 0 4 ms 0 ms - 252 ms
1 64 32 ms 256 ms - 2044 ms (256ms - ~2s)
2 128 256 ms 2048 ms - 16380 ms (~2s - ~16s)
3 192 2048 ms (~2s) 16384 ms - 131068 ms (~16s - ~2m)
4 256 16384 ms (~16s) 131072 ms - 1048572 ms (~2m - ~17m)
5 320 131072 ms (~2m) 1048576 ms - 8388604 ms (~17m - ~2h)
6 384 1048576 ms (~17m) 8388608 ms - 67108863 ms (~2h - ~18h)
7 448 8388608 ms (~2h) 67108864 ms - 536870911 ms (~18h - ~6d)
That's a worst case inaccuracy of 12.5% for the timers which are queued at the
beginning of a level.
So the new wheel concept addresses the old issues:
1) Cascading is avoided completely
2) By keeping the timers in the bucket until expiry/cancelation we can track
the buckets which have timers enqueued in a bucket bitmap and therefore can
look up the next expiring timer very fast and O(1).
A further benefit of the concept is that the slack calculation which is done
on every timer start is no longer necessary because the granularity levels
provide natural batching already.
Our extensive testing with various loads did not show any performance
degradation vs. the current wheel implementation.
This patch does not address the 'fast lookup' issue as we wanted to make sure
that there is no regression introduced by the wheel redesign. The
optimizations are in follow up patches.
This patch contains fixes from Anna-Maria Gleixner and Richard Cochran.

We want to move the timer migration logic from a 'push' to a 'pull' model.
Under the current 'push' model pinned timers are handled via
a runtime API variant: mod_timer_pinned().
The 'pull' model requires us to store the pinned attribute of a timer
in the timer_list structure itself, as a new TIMER_PINNED bit in
timer->flags.
This flag must be set at initialization time and the timer APIs
recognize the flag.
This patch:
- Implements the new flag and associated new-style initialization
methods
- makes mod_timer() recognize new-style pinned timers,
- and adds some migration helper facility to allow
step by step conversion of old-style to new-style
pinned timers.

Pull time(keeping) updates from John Stultz:
- Handle the 1ns issue with the old refusing to die vsyscall machinery
- More y2038 updates
- Documentation fixes
- Simplify clocksource handling
The tstats_show() function prints a ktime_t variable by converting
it to struct timespec first. The algorithm is ok, but we want to
stop using timespec in general because of the 32-bit time_t
overflow problem.
This changes the code to use struct timespec64, without any
functional change.

udelay_test_single() uses ktime_get_ts() to get two timespec values
and calculate the difference between them, while udelay_test_show()
uses the same to printk() the current monotonic time.
Both of these are y2038 safe on all machines, but we want to
get rid of struct timespec anyway, so this converts the code to
use ktime_get_ns() and ktime_get_ts64() respectively.

The user notices the problem in a raw and real time drift, calling
clock_gettime with CLOCK_REALTIME / CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW on a system
with no ntp correction taking place (no ntpd or ptp stuff running).
The problem is, that old_vsyscall_fixup adds an extra 1ns even though
xtime_nsec is already held in full nsecs and the remainder in this
case is 0. Do the rounding up buisness only if needed.

only be used in non-atomic context.
Previously we claimed usleep_range() was a drop-in replacement for udelay()
where wakeup is flexible. But that's only true in non-atomic contexts,

When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is
tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the
activation is illegal.
In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in
their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core.
Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks.
To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let
the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If
yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke
fixup callback.
This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test
with all debugobjects supports enabled.
At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object
which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point
to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change
such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected
behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function
stub_timer.

Ticks can happen while the CPU is in dynticks-idle or dynticks-singletask
mode. In fact "nohz" or "dynticks" only mean that we exit the periodic
mode and we try to minimize the ticks as much as possible. The nohz
subsystem uses a confusing terminology with the internal state
"ts->tick_stopped" which is also available through its public interface
with tick_nohz_tick_stopped(). This is a misnomer as the tick is instead
reduced with the best effort rather than stopped. In the best case the
tick can indeed be actually stopped but there is no guarantee about that.
If a timer needs to fire one second later, a tick will fire while the
CPU is in nohz mode and this is a very common scenario.
Now this confusion happens to be a problem with CPU load updates:
cpu_load_update_active() doesn't handle nohz ticks correctly because it
assumes that ticks are completely stopped in nohz mode and that
cpu_load_update_active() can't be called in dynticks mode. When that
happens, the whole previous tickless load is ignored and the function
just records the load for the current tick, ignoring potentially long
idle periods behind.
In order to solve this, we could account the current load for the
previous nohz time but there is a risk that we account the load of a
task that got freshly enqueued for the whole nohz period.
So instead, lets record the dynticks load on nohz frame entry so we know
what to record in case of nohz ticks, then use this record to account
the tickless load on nohz ticks and nohz frame end.

The CPU load update related functions have a weak naming convention
currently, starting with update_cpu_load_*() which isn't ideal as
"update" is a very generic concept.
Since two of these functions are public already (and a third is to come)
that's enough to introduce a more conventional naming scheme. So let's
do the following rename instead:
update_cpu_load_*() -> cpu_load_update_*()

The tick dependency mask was intially unsigned long because this is the
type on which clear_bit() operates on and fetch_or() accepts it.
But now that we have atomic_fetch_or(), we can instead use
atomic_andnot() to clear the bit. This consolidates the type of our
tick dependency mask, reduce its size on structures and benefit from
possible architecture optimizations on atomic_t operations.
