2018-06-12posix-cpu-timers: Remove lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled()Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
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.

2018-05-27PM / suspend: Prevent might sleep splatsThomas Gleixner
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.

2018-05-19timekeeping: Add ktime_get_coarse_with_offsetArnd Bergmann
I have run into a couple of drivers using current_kernel_time() suffering from the y2038 problem, and they could be converted to using ktime_t, but don't have interfaces that skip the nanosecond calculation at the moment. This introduces ktime_get_coarse_with_offset() as a simpler variant of ktime_get_with_offset(), and adds wrappers for the three time domains we support with the existing function.

Rename them to ktime_get_coarse_real_ts64, ktime_get_coarse_ts64, ktime_get_raw_ts64, ktime_get_boottime_ts64 and ktime_get_clocktai_ts64 respectively, and provide the interfaces with macros or inline functions as needed.

2018-05-19timekeeping: Clean up ktime_get_real_ts64Arnd Bergmann
In a move to make ktime_get_*() the preferred driver interface into the timekeeping code, sanitizes ktime_get_real_ts64() to be a proper exported symbol rather than an alias for getnstimeofday64(). The internal __getnstimeofday64() is no longer used, so remove that and merge it into ktime_get_real_ts64().

2018-05-19timekeeping: Remove timespec64 hackArnd Bergmann
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.

2018-05-15tick/broadcast: Use for_each_cpu() specially on UP kernelsDexuan Cui
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.

2018-05-02clocksource: Allow clocksource_mark_unstable() on unregistered clocksourcesPeter Zijlstra
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.

2018-04-26Revert: Unify CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIMEThomas Gleixner

As reported by several folks systemd and other applications rely on the documented behaviour of CLOCK_MONOTONIC on Linux and break with the above changes. After resume daemons time out and other timeout related issues are observed. Rafael compiled this list: * systemd kills daemons on resume, after >WatchdogSec seconds of suspending (Genki Sky). [Verified that that's because systemd uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC and expects it to not include the suspend time.] * systemd-journald misbehaves after resume: systemd-journald[7266]: File /var/log/journal/016627c3c4784cd4812d4b7e96a34226/system.journal corrupted or uncleanly shut down, renaming and replacing. (Mike Galbraith). * NetworkManager reports "networking disabled" and networking is broken after resume 50% of the time (Pavel). [May be because of systemd.] * MATE desktop dims the display and starts the screensaver right after system resume (Pavel). * Full system hang during resume (me). [May be due to systemd or NM or both.] That happens on debian and open suse systems. It's sad, that these problems were neither catched in -next nor by those folks who expressed interest in this change. Reported-by: Rafael J.

Kaike reported that in tests rdma hrtimers occasionaly stopped working. He did great debugging, which provided enough context to decode the problem. CPU 3 CPU 2 idle start sched_timer expires = 712171000000 queue->next = sched_timer start rdmavt timer. expires = 712172915662 lock(baseof(CPU3)) tick_nohz_stop_tick() tick = 716767000000 timerqueue_add(tmr) hrtimer_set_expires(sched_timer, tick); sched_timer->expires = 716767000000 <---- FAIL if (tmr->expires < queue->next->expires) 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.

get/put_timespec64() interfaces will eventually be used for conversions between the new y2038 safe struct __kernel_timespec and struct timespec64. The new y2038 safe syscalls have a common entry for native and compat interfaces. 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 for now. This is until COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME has been handled correctly. x86 will be the first architecture that will use the CONFIG_64BIT_TIME.

2018-04-19posix-cpu-timers: Ensure set_process_cpu_timer is always evaluatedLaura Abbott
Commit a9445e47d897 ("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.

2018-04-09sched: idle: Select idle state before stopping the tickRafael J. Wysocki
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.

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 struct tick_sched into __tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() as it doesn't need to be updated anywhere else.

2018-04-06cpuidle: Return nohz hint from cpuidle_select()Rafael J. Wysocki
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.

2018-04-05sched: idle: Do not stop the tick upfront in the idle loopRafael J. Wysocki
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.

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.

2018-04-05syscalls/core: Prepare CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER=y for compat syscallsDominik Brodowski
It may be useful for an architecture to override the definitions of the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE0() and __COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macros in <linux/compat.h>, in particular to use a different calling convention for syscalls. This patch provides a mechanism to do so, based on the previously introduced CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER. If it is enabled, <asm/sycall_wrapper.h> is included in <linux/compat.h> and may be used to define the macros mentioned above. Moreover, as the syscall calling convention may be different if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is set, 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 as well as the SYS_NI() and COMPAT_SYS_NI() macros in kernel/time/posix-stubs.c can be re-defined in <asm/syscall_wrapper.h> iff CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SYSCALL_WRAPPER is enabled.

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" * 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: alarmtimer: Init nanosleep alarm timer on stack y2038: Introduce struct __kernel_old_timeval tracing: Unify the "boot" and "mono" tracing clocks hrtimer: Unify MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME clock behavior posix-timers: Unify MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME clock behavior timekeeping: Remove boot time specific code Input: Evdev - unify MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME clock behavior timekeeping: Make the MONOTONIC clock behave like the BOOTTIME clock timekeeping: Add the new CLOCK_MONOTONIC_ACTIVE clock timekeeping/ntp: Determine the multiplier directly from NTP tick length timekeeping/ntp: Don't align NTP frequency adjustments to ticks clocksource: Use ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS clocksource: Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW/RO/WO to define device attributes clocksource: Don't walk the clocksource list for empty override
