2014-06-04timekeeping: use printk_deferred when holding timekeeping seqlockJohn Stultz
Jiri Bohac pointed out that there are rare but potential deadlock possibilities when calling printk while holding the timekeeping seqlock. This is due to printk() triggering console sem wakeup, which can cause scheduling code to trigger hrtimers which may try to read the time. Specifically, as Jiri pointed out, that path is: printk vprintk_emit console_unlock up(&console_sem) __up wake_up_process try_to_wake_up ttwu_do_activate ttwu_activate activate_task enqueue_task enqueue_task_fair hrtick_update hrtick_start_fair hrtick_start_fair get_time ktime_get --> endless loop on read_seqcount_retry(&timekeeper_seq, ...) This patch tries to avoid this issue by using printk_deferred (previously named printk_sched) which should defer printing via a irq_work_queue.

2014-05-12ntp: Make is_error_status() use its argumentGeorge Spelvin
is_error_status() is an inline function always called with the global time_status as an argument, so there's zero functional difference with this change, but the non-CONFIG_NTP_PPS version uses the passed-in argument, while the CONFIG_NTP_PPS one ignores its argument and uses the global. Looks like is_error_status was refactored out, but someone forgot to change the logic to check the local argument value. Thus this patch makes it use the argument always; shorter variable names are good.

In tick_do_update_jiffies64() we are processing ticks only if delta is greater than tick_period. This is what we are supposed to do here and it broke a bit with this patch: commit 47a1b796 (tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock) With above patch, we might end up calling update_wall_time() even if delta is found to be smaller that tick_period.

2014-03-28time: Revert to calling clock_was_set_delayed() while in irq contextJohn Stultz
In commit 47a1b796306356f35 ("tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock"), we moved to calling clock_was_set() due to the fact that we were no longer holding the timekeeping or jiffies lock. However, there is still the problem that clock_was_set() triggers an IPI, which cannot be done from the timer's hard irq context, and will generate WARN_ON warnings. Apparently in my earlier testing, I'm guessing I didn't bump the dmesg log level, so I somehow missed the WARN_ONs. Thus we need to revert back to calling clock_was_set_delayed().

2014-02-19sched_clock: Prevent callers from seeing half-updated dataStephen Boyd
The generic sched_clock registration function was previously done lockless, due to the fact that it was expected to be called only once. However, now there are systems that may register multiple sched_clock sources, for which the lack of locking has casued problems: If two sched_clock sources are registered we may end up in a situation where a call to sched_clock() may be accessing the epoch cycle count for the old counter and the cycle count for the new counter. This can lead to confusing results where sched_clock() values jump and then are reset to 0 (due to the way the registration function forces the epoch_ns to be 0). Fix this by reorganizing the registration function to hold the seqlock for as short a time as possible while we update the clock_data structure for a new counter. We also put any accumulated time into epoch_ns instead of resetting the time to 0 so that the clock doesn't reset after each successful registration.

2014-02-13tick: Clear broadcast pending bit when switching to oneshotThomas Gleixner
AMD systems which use the C1E workaround in the amd_e400_idle routine trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE in the broadcast code when onlining a CPU. The reason is that the idle routine of those AMD systems switches the cpu into forced broadcast mode early on before the newly brought up CPU can switch over to high resolution / NOHZ mode. The timer related CPU1 bringup looks like this: clockevent_register_device(local_apic); tick_setup(local_apic); ... idle() tick_broadcast_on_off(FORCE); tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(ENTER) cpumask_set(cpu, broadcast_oneshot_mask); halt(); Now the broadcast interrupt on CPU0 sets CPU1 in the broadcast_pending_mask and wakes CPU1. So CPU1 continues: local_apic_timer_interrupt() tick_handle_periodic(); softirq() tick_init_highres(); cpumask_clr(cpu, broadcast_oneshot_mask); tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(ENTER) WARN_ON(cpumask_test(cpu, broadcast_pending_mask); So while we remove CPU1 from the broadcast_oneshot_mask when we switch over to highres mode, we do not clear the pending bit, which then triggers the warning when we go back to idle. The reason why this is only visible on C1E affected AMD systems is that the other machines enter the deep sleep states via acpi_idle/intel_idle and exit the broadcast mode before executing the remote triggered local_apic_timer_interrupt. So the pending bit is already cleared when the switch over to highres mode is clearing the oneshot mask. The solution is simple: Clear the pending bit together with the mask bit when we switch over to highres mode. Stanislaw came up independently with the same patch by enforcing the C1E workaround and debugging the fallout.

2014-02-07tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcastPreeti U Murthy
On some architectures, in certain CPU deep idle states the local timers stop. An external clock device is used to wakeup these CPUs. The kernel support for the wakeup of these CPUs is provided by the tick broadcast framework by using the external clock device as the wakeup source. However not all implementations of architectures provide such an external clock device. This patch includes support in the broadcast framework to handle the wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle states on such systems by queuing a hrtimer on one of the CPUs, which is meant to handle the wakeup of CPUs in deep idle states. This patchset introduces a pseudo clock device which can be registered by the archs as tick_broadcast_device in the absence of a real external clock device. Once registered, the broadcast framework will work as is for these architectures as long as the archs take care of the BROADCAST_ENTER notification failing for one of the CPUs. This CPU is made the stand by CPU to handle wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle and it *must not enter deep idle states*. The CPU with the earliest wakeup is chosen to be this CPU. Hence this way the stand by CPU dynamically moves around and so does the hrtimer which is queued to trigger at the next earliest wakeup time. This is consistent with the case where an external clock device is present. The smp affinity of this clock device is set to the CPU with the earliest wakeup. This patchset handles the hotplug of the stand by CPU as well by moving the hrtimer on to the CPU handling the CPU_DEAD notification.

2014-02-07time: Change the return type of clockevents_notify() to integerPreeti U Murthy
The broadcast framework can potentially be made use of by archs which do not have an external clock device as well. Then, it is required that one of the CPUs need to handle the broadcasting of wakeup IPIs to the CPUs in deep idle. As a result its local timers should remain functional all the time. For such a CPU, the BROADCAST_ENTER notification has to fail indicating that its clock device cannot be shutdown. To make way for this support, change the return type of tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() and hence clockevents_notify() to indicate such scenarios.

2014-01-15tick: Rename tick_check_idle() to tick_irq_enter()Frederic Weisbecker
This makes the code more symetric against the existing tick functions called on irq exit: tick_irq_exit() and tick_nohz_irq_exit(). These function are also symetric as they mirror each other's action: we start to account idle time on irq exit and we stop this accounting on irq entry. Also the tick is stopped on irq exit and timekeeping catches up with the tickless time elapsed until we reach irq entry. This rename was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a long while ago but it got forgotten in the mass.

2013-12-23timekeeping: Fix missing timekeeping_update in suspend pathJohn Stultz
Since 48cdc135d4840 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure persist. In the timekeeping suspend path, we udpate the timekeeper structure, so we should be sure to update the shadow-timekeeper before releasing the timekeeping locks. Currently this isn't done. In most cases, the next time related code to run would be timekeeping_resume, which does update the shadow-timekeeper, but in an abundence of caution, this patch adds the call to timekeeping_update() in the suspend path.

2013-12-23tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lockJohn Stultz
Since the xtime lock was split into the timekeeping lock and the jiffies lock, we no longer need to call update_wall_time() while holding the jiffies lock. Thus, this patch splits update_wall_time() out from do_timer(). This allows us to get away from calling clock_was_set_delayed() in update_wall_time() and instead use the standard clock_was_set() call that previously would deadlock, as it causes the jiffies lock to be acquired.

2013-12-23timekeeping: Avoid possible deadlock from clock_was_set_delayedJohn Stultz
As part of normal operaions, the hrtimer subsystem frequently calls into the timekeeping code, creating a locking order of hrtimer locks -> timekeeping locks clock_was_set_delayed() was suppoed to allow us to avoid deadlocks between the timekeeping the hrtimer subsystem, so that we could notify the hrtimer subsytem the time had changed while holding the timekeeping locks. This was done by scheduling delayed work that would run later once we were out of the timekeeing code. But unfortunately the lock chains are complex enoguh that in scheduling delayed work, we end up eventually trying to grab an hrtimer lock. Sasha Levin noticed this in testing when the new seqlock lockdep enablement triggered the following (somewhat abrieviated) message: [ 251.100221] ====================================================== [ 251.100221] [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] [ 251.100221] 3.13.0-rc2-next-20131206-sasha-00005-g8be2375-dirty #4053 Not tainted [ 251.101967] ------------------------------------------------------- [ 251.101967] kworker/10:1/4506 is trying to acquire lock: [ 251.101967] (timekeeper_seq){----..}, at: [<ffffffff81160e96>] retrigger_next_event+0x56/0x70 [ 251.101967] [ 251.101967] but task is already holding lock: [ 251.101967] (hrtimer_bases.lock#11){-.-...}, at: [<ffffffff81160e7c>] retrigger_next_event+0x3c/0x70 [ 251.101967] [ 251.101967] which lock already depends on the new lock.

This works for the case here, where the do_adjtimex() was the deadlock trigger point. Unfortuantely, in update_wall_time() we still hold the jiffies lock, which would deadlock with the ipi triggered by clock_was_set(), preventing us from calling it even after we drop the timekeeping lock. So instead call clock_was_set_delayed() at that point.

2013-12-23timekeeping: Fix potential lost pv notification of time changeJohn Stultz
In 780427f0e11 (Indicate that clock was set in the pvclock gtod notifier), logic was added to pass a CLOCK_WAS_SET notification to the pvclock notifier chain. While that patch added a action flag returned from accumulate_nsecs_to_secs(), it only uses the returned value in one location, and not in the logarithmic accumulation. This means if a leap second triggered during the logarithmic accumulation (which is most likely where it would happen), the notification that the clock was set would not make it to the pv notifiers. This patch extends the logarithmic_accumulation pass down that action flag so proper notification will occur. This patch also changes the varialbe action -> clock_set per Ingo's suggestion.

If CONFIG_NO_HZ=y and the nohz functionality is disabled via the command line option "nohz=off" or not enabled due to missing hardware support, then tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() returns 0.

2013-11-22time: Fix 1ns/tick drift w/ GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLDMartin Schwidefsky
Since commit 1e75fa8be9f (time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec - merged in v3.6), there has been an problem with the error accounting in the timekeeping code, such that when truncating to nanoseconds, we round up to the next nsec, but the balancing adjustment to the ntp_error value was dropped. This causes 1ns per tick drift forward of the clock. In 3.7, this logic was isolated to only GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD architectures (s390, ia64, powerpc). The fix is simply to balance the accounting and to subtract the added nanosecond from ntp_error. This allows the internal long-term clock steering to keep the clock accurate. While this fix removes the regression added in 1e75fa8be9f, the ideal solution is to move away from GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD and use the new VSYSCALL method, which avoids entirely the nanosecond granular rounding, and the resulting short-term clock adjustment oscillation needed to keep long term accurate time.

2013-11-19NOHZ: Check for nohz active instead of nohz enabledThomas Gleixner
RCU and the fine grained idle time accounting functions check tick_nohz_enabled. But that variable is merily telling that NOHZ has been enabled in the config and not been disabled on the command line. But it does not tell anything about nohz being active. That's what all this should check for. Matthew reported, that the idle accounting on his old P1 machine showed bogus values, when he enabled NOHZ in the config and did not disable it on the kernel command line. The reason is that his machine uses (refined) jiffies as a clocksource which explains why the "fine" grained accounting went into lala land, because it depends on when the system goes and leaves idle relative to the jiffies increment. Provide a tick_nohz_active indicator and let RCU and the accounting code use this instead of tick_nohz_enable.
