The clocksource watchdog reporting was improved by 0b046b217ad4c6.
I want to add the info of CPU where the watchdog detects a
deviation because it is necessary to identify the trouble spot
if the clocksource is TSC.

1e75fa8 "time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec" replaced a call to
clocksource_cyc2ns() from timekeeping_get_ns() with an open-coded version
of the same logic to avoid keeping a semi-redundant struct timespec
in struct timekeeper.
However, the commit also introduced a subtle semantic change - where
clocksource_cyc2ns() uses purely unsigned math, the new version introduces
a signed temporary, meaning that if (delta * tk->mult) has a 63-bit
overflow the following shift will still give a negative result. The
choice of 'maxsec' in __clocksource_updatefreq_scale() means this will
generally happen if there's a ~10 minute pause in examining the
clocksource.
This can be triggered on a powerpc KVM guest by stopping it from qemu for
a bit over 10 minutes. After resuming time has jumped backwards several
minutes causing numerous problems (jiffies does not advance, msleep()s can
be extended by minutes..). It doesn't happen on x86 KVM guests, because
the guest TSC is effectively frozen while the guest is stopped, which is
not the case for the powerpc timebase.
Obviously an unsigned (64 bit) overflow will only take twice as long as a
signed, 63-bit overflow. I don't know the time code well enough to know
if that will still cause incorrect calculations, or if a 64-bit overflow
is avoided elsewhere.
Still, an incorrect forwards clock adjustment will cause less trouble than
time going backwards. So, this patch removes the potential for
intermediate signed overflow.

Before the system go to suspend (S3), if user create a timer
with clockid CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM/CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM and set a
"large" timeout value to this timer. The function
alarmtimer_suspend will be called to setup a timeout value to
RTC timer to avoid the system sleep over time. However, if the
system wakeup early than RTC timeout, the RTC timer will not be
cleared. And this will cause the hpet_rtc_interrupt come
unexpectedly until the RTC timeout. To fix this problem, just
adding alarmtimer_resume to cancel the RTC timer.
This was noticed because the HPET RTC emulation fires an
interrupt every 16ms(=1/2^DEFAULT_RTC_SHIFT) up to the point
where the alarm time is reached.
This program always hits this situation
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/8/326), if system wake up earlier
than alarm time.

Regardless of the previous CPU a timer was on, add_timer_on()
currently simply sets timer->flags to the new CPU. As the caller must
be seeing the timer as idle, this is locally fine, but the timer
leaving the old base while unlocked can lead to race conditions as
follows.
Let's say timer was on cpu 0.
cpu 0 cpu 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
del_timer(timer) succeeds
del_timer(timer)
lock_timer_base(timer) locks cpu_0_base
add_timer_on(timer, 1)
spin_lock(&cpu_1_base->lock)
timer->flags set to cpu_1_base
operates on @timer operates on @timer
This triggered with mod_delayed_work_on() which contains
"if (del_timer()) add_timer_on()" sequence eventually leading to the
following oops.

timekeeping_init() can set the wall time offset, so we need to
increment the clock_was_set_seq counter. That way hrtimers will pick
up the early offset immediately. Otherwise on a machine which does not
set wall time later in the boot process the hrtimer offset is stale at
0 and wall time timers are going to expire with a delay of 45 years.

It was found while running a database workload on large systems that
significant time was spent trying to acquire the sighand lock.
The issue was that whenever an itimer expired, many threads ended up
simultaneously trying to send the signal. Most of the time, nothing
happened after acquiring the sighand lock because another thread
had just already sent the signal and updated the "next expire" time.
The fastpath_timer_check() didn't help much since the "next expire"
time was updated after the threads exit fastpath_timer_check().
This patch addresses this by having the thread_group_cputimer structure
maintain a boolean to signify when a thread in the group is already
checking for process wide timers, and adds extra logic in the fastpath
to check the boolean.

In the next patch in this series, a new field 'checking_timer' will
be added to 'struct thread_group_cputimer'. Both this and the
existing 'running' integer field are just used as boolean values. To
save space in the structure, we can make both of these fields booleans.
This is a preparatory patch to convert the existing running integer

The fastpath_timer_check() contains logic to check for if any timers
are set by checking if !task_cputime_zero(). Similarly, we can do this
before calling check_thread_timers(). In the case where there
are only process-wide timers, this will skip all of the computations for
per-thread timers when there are no per-thread timers.
As suggested by George, we can put the task_cputime_zero() check in
check_thread_timers(), since that is more of an optization to the
function. Similarly, we move the existing check of cputimer->running
to check_process_timers().

In fastpath_timer_check(), the task_cputime() function is always
called to compute the utime and stime values. However, this is not
necessary if there are no per-thread timers to check for. This patch

when there are per-thread timers set.

In apply_slack(), find_last_bit() is applied to a bitmask consisting
of precisely BITS_PER_LONG bits. Since mask is non-zero, we might as
well eliminate the function call and use __fls() directly. On x86_64,
this shaves 23 bytes of the only caller, mod_timer().
This also gets rid of Coverity CID 1192106, but that is a false
positive: Coverity is not aware that mask != 0 implies that
find_last_bit will not return BITS_PER_LONG.

The sync_cmos_clock has one use of struct timespec, which we want to

There is exactly one caller of getnstime_raw_and_real in the kernel,
which is the pps_get_ts function. This changes the caller and
the implementation to work on timespec64 types rather than timespec,
to avoid the time_t overflow on 32-bit architectures.
For consistency with the other new functions (ktime_get_seconds,
ktime_get_real_*, ...), I'm renaming the function to
ktime_get_raw_and_real_ts64.
We still need to convert from the internal 64-bit type to 32 bit
types in the caller, but this conversion is now pushed out from
getnstime_raw_and_real to pps_get_ts. A follow-up patch changes
the remaining pps code to completely avoid the conversion.

There is only one user of the hardpps function in the kernel, so
it makes sense to atomically change it over to using 64-bit
timestamps for y2038 safety. In the hardpps implementation,
we also need to change the pps_normtime structure, which is
similar to struct timespec and also requires a 64-bit
seconds portion.
This introduces two temporary variables in pps_kc_event() to
do the conversion, they will be removed again in the next step,
which seemed preferable to having a larger patch changing it
all at the same time.

The internal clocksteering done for fine-grained error
correction uses a logarithmic approximation, so any time
adjtimex() adjusts the clock steering, timekeeping_freqadjust()
quickly approximates the correct clock frequency over a series
of ticks.
Unfortunately, the logic in timekeeping_freqadjust(), introduced
in commit:
dc491596f639 ("timekeeping: Rework frequency adjustments to work better w/ nohz")
used the abs() function with a s64 error value to calculate the
size of the approximated adjustment to be made.
Per include/linux/kernel.h:
"abs() should not be used for 64-bit types (s64, u64, long long) - use abs64()".
Thus on 32-bit platforms, this resulted in the clocksteering to
take a quite dampended random walk trying to converge on the
proper frequency, which caused the adjustments to be made much
slower then intended (most easily observed when large
adjustments are made).
This patch fixes the issue by using abs64() instead.

The code ensures that when nohz full is running, at least the
boot CPU serves as a housekeeper and it can't be later offlined.
Let's assert this assumption to make sure that we have CPUs to
handle unbound jobs like workqueues and timers while nohz full
CPUs run undisturbed.
Also improve the comments on housekeeper offlining prevention.

Commit 75e3b37d0598 ("hrtimer: Drop return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres()")
drops the return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres(). While doing so, it also
drops the return statement itself on failure. This may cause a system hang.
Seen when running arm:multi_v7_defconfig in qemu with devicetree file
vexpress-v2p-ca9.

The variable called "this_base" is confusing because its name suggests
it's of "struct hrtimer_clock_base" type, along with "base" and "new_base"
which doesn't help understanding this complicated function.

lock_timer_base() cannot prevent the following :
CPU1 ( in __mod_timer()
timer->flags |= TIMER_MIGRATING;
spin_unlock(&base->lock);
base = new_base;
spin_lock(&base->lock);
// The next line clears TIMER_MIGRATING
timer->flags &= ~TIMER_BASEMASK;
CPU2 (in lock_timer_base())
see timer base is cpu0 base
spin_lock_irqsave(&base->lock, *flags);
if (timer->flags == tf)
return base; // oops, wrong base
timer->flags |= base->cpu // too late
We must write timer->flags in one go, otherwise we can fool other cpus.

The weak update_persistent_clock64() calls update_persistent_clock(),
if the architecture defines an update_persistent_clock64() to replace
and remove its update_persistent_clock() version, when building the
kernel the linker will throw an undefined symbol error, that is, any
arch that switches to update_persistent_clock64() will have this issue.
To solve the issue, we add the common weak update_persistent_clock().

Two issues were found on an IMX6 development board without an
enabled RTC device(resulting in the boot time and monotonic
time being initialized to 0).
Issue 1:exportfs -a generate:
"exportfs: /opt/nfs/arm does not support NFS export"
Issue 2:cat /proc/stat:
"btime 4294967236"
The same issues can be reproduced on x86 after running the
following code:
int main(void)
{
struct timeval val;
int ret;
val.tv_sec = 0;
val.tv_usec = 0;
ret = settimeofday(&val, NULL);
return 0;
}
Two issues are different symptoms of same problem:
The reason is a positive wall_to_monotonic pushes boot time back
to the time before Epoch, and getboottime will return negative
value.
In symptom 1:
negative boot time cause get_expiry() to overflow time_t
when input expire time is 2147483647, then cache_flush()
always clears entries just added in ip_map_parse.
In symptom 2:
show_stat() uses "unsigned long" to print negative btime
value returned by getboottime.
This patch fix the problem by prohibiting time from being set to a value which
would cause a negative boot time. As a result one can't set the CLOCK_REALTIME
time prior to (1970 + system uptime).

timespec_trunc() avoids rounding if granularity <= nanoseconds-per-jiffie
(or TICK_NSEC). This optimization assumes that:
1. current_kernel_time().tv_nsec is already rounded to TICK_NSEC (i.e.
with HZ=1000 you'd get 1000000, 2000000, 3000000... but never 1000001).
This is no longer true (probably since hrtimers introduced in 2.6.16).
2. TICK_NSEC is evenly divisible by all possible granularities. This may
be true for HZ=100, 250, 1000, but obviously not for HZ=300 /
TICK_NSEC=3333333 (introduced in 2.6.20).
Thus, sub-second portions of in-core file times are not rounded to on-disk
granularity. I.e. file times may change when the inode is re-read from disk
or when the file system is remounted.
This affects all file systems with file time granularities > 1 ns and < 1s,
e.g. CEPH (1000 ns), UDF (1000 ns), CIFS (100 ns), NTFS (100 ns) and FUSE
(configurable from user mode via struct fuse_init_out.time_gran).
Steps to reproduce with e.g. UDF:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=udfdisk count=10000 && mkudffs udfdisk
$ mkdir udf && mount udfdisk udf
$ touch udf/test && stat -c %y udf/test
2015-06-09 10:22:56.130006767 +0200
$ umount udf && mount udfdisk udf
$ stat -c %y udf/test
2015-06-09 10:22:56.130006000 +0200
Remounting truncates the mtime to 1 µs.
Fix the rounding in timespec_trunc() and update the documentation.
timespec_trunc() is exclusively used to calculate inode's [acm]time (mostly
via current_fs_time()), and always with super_block.s_time_gran as second
argument. So this can safely be changed without side effects.
Note: This does _not_ fix the issue for FAT's 2 second mtime resolution,
as super_block.s_time_gran isn't prepared to handle different ctime /
mtime / atime resolutions nor resolutions > 1 second.

monotonic timers
I noticed for non-monotonic timers in timer_list, some of the
output looked a little confusing.
For example:
#1: <0000000000000000>, posix_timer_fn, S:01, hrtimer_start_range_ns, leap-a-day/2360
# expires at 1434412800000000000-1434412800000000000 nsecs [in 1434410725062375469 to 1434410725062375469 nsecs]
You'll note the relative time till the expiration "[in xxx to
yyy nsecs]" is incorrect. This is because its printing the delta
between CLOCK_MONOTONIC time to the CLOCK_REALTIME expiration.
This patch fixes this issue by adding the clock offset to the
"now" time which we use to calculate the delta.

Restart the tick when necessary from the irq exit path. It makes nohz
full more flexible, simplify the related IPIs and doesn't bring
significant overhead on irq exit.
In a longer term view, it will allow us to piggyback the nohz kick
on the scheduler IPI in the future instead of sending a dedicated IPI
that often doubles the scheduler IPI on task wakeup. This will require
more changes though including careful review of resched_curr() callers
to include nohz full needs.

On nohz full early days, idle dynticks and full dynticks weren't well
integrated and we couldn't risk full dynticks calls on idle without
risking messing up tick idle statistics. This is why we prevented such
thing to happen.
Nowadays full dynticks and idle dynticks are better integrated and
interact without known issue.
So lets remove that.
