2014-10-22clocksource: Remove "weak" from clocksource_default_clock() declarationBjorn Helgaas1-1/+1
kernel/time/jiffies.c provides a default clocksource_default_clock() definition explicitly marked "weak". arch/s390 provides its own definition intended to override the default, but the "weak" attribute on the declaration applied to the s390 definition as well, so the linker chose one based on link order (see 10629d711ed7 ("PCI: Remove __weak annotation from pcibios_get_phb_of_node decl")). Remove the "weak" attribute from the clocksource_default_clock() declaration so we always prefer a non-weak definition over the weak one, independent of link order.

2013-07-05clocksource: Reselect clocksource when watchdog validated high-res capabilityThomas Gleixner1-0/+1
Up to commit 5d33b883a (clocksource: Always verify highres capability) we had no sanity check when selecting a clocksource, which prevented that a non highres capable clocksource is used when the system already switched to highres/nohz mode. The new sanity check works as Alex and Tim found out. It prevents the TSC from being used. This happens because on x86 the boot process looks like this: tsc_start_freqency_validation(TSC); clocksource_register(HPET); clocksource_done_booting(); clocksource_select() Selects HPET which is valid for high-res switch_to_highres(); clocksource_register(TSC); TSC is not selected, because it is not yet flagged as VALID_HIGH_RES clocksource_watchdog() Validates TSC for highres, but that does not make TSC the current clocksource. Before the sanity check was added, we installed TSC unvalidated which worked most of the time. If the TSC was really detected as unstable, then the unstable logic removed it and installed HPET again. The sanity check is correct and needed. So the watchdog needs to kick a reselection of the clocksource, when it qualifies TSC as a valid high res clocksource. To solve this, we mark the clocksource which got the flag CLOCK_SOURCE_VALID_FOR_HRES set by the watchdog with an new flag CLOCK_SOURCE_RESELECT and trigger the watchdog thread. The watchdog thread evaluates the flag and invokes clocksource_select() when set. To avoid that the clocksource_done_booting() code, which is about to install the first real clocksource anyway, needs to go through clocksource_select and tick_oneshot_notify() pointlessly, split out the clocksource_watchdog_kthread() list walk code and invoke the select/notify only when called from clocksource_watchdog_kthread(). So clocksource_done_booting() can utilize the same splitout code without the select/notify invocation and the clocksource_mutex unlock/relock dance.

2011-11-10clocksource: Avoid selecting mult values that might overflow when adjustedJohn Stultz1-1/+2
For some frequencies, the clocks_calc_mult_shift() function will unfortunately select mult values very close to 0xffffffff. This has the potential to overflow when NTP adjusts the clock, adding to the mult value. This patch adds a clocksource.maxadj value, which provides an approximation of an 11% adjustment(NTP limits adjustments to 500ppm and the tick adjustment is limited to 10%), which could be made to the clocksource.mult value. This is then used to both check that the current mult value won't overflow/underflow, as well as warning us if the timekeeping_adjust() code pushes over that 11% boundary. v2: Fix max_adjustment calculation, and improve WARN_ONCE messages. v3: Don't warn before maxadj has actually been set CC: Yong Zhang <yong.zhang0@gmail.com> CC: David Daney <ddaney.cavm@gmail.com> CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> CC: Chen Jie <chenj@lemote.com> CC: zhangfx <zhangfx@lemote.com> CC: stable@kernel.org Reported-by: Chen Jie <chenj@lemote.com> Reported-by: zhangfx <zhangfx@lemote.com> Tested-by: Yong Zhang <yong.zhang0@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>

2011-06-16clocksource: Make watchdog robust vs. interruptionThomas Gleixner1-0/+1
The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC. The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled region to avoid that.

2010-05-10clocksource: Add clocksource_register_hz/khz interfaceJohn Stultz1-1/+18
How to pick good mult/shift pairs has always been difficult to describe to folks writing clocksource drivers, since it requires careful tradeoffs in adjustment accuracy vs overflow limits. Now, with the clocks_calc_mult_shift function, its much easier. However, not many clocksources have converted to using that function, and there is still the issue of the max interval length assumption being made by each clocksource driver independently. So this patch simplifies the registration process by having clocksources be registered with a hz/khz value and the registration function taking care of setting mult/shift. This should take most of the confusion out of writing a clocksource driver. Additionally it also keeps the shift size tradeoff (more accuracy vs longer possible nohz times) centralized so the timekeeping core can keep track of the assumptions being made.

The dynamic tick allows the kernel to sleep for periods longer than a single tick, but it does not limit the sleep time currently. In the worst case the kernel could sleep longer than the wrap around time of the time keeping clock source which would result in losing track of time.

2009-11-13clocksource: Provide a generic mult/shift factor calculationThomas Gleixner1-0/+10
MIPS has two functions to calculcate the mult/shift factors for clock sources and clock events at run time. ARM needs such functions as well. Implement a function which calculates the mult/shift factors based on the frequencies to which and from which is converted. The function also has a parameter to specify the minimum conversion range in seconds. This range is guaranteed not to produce a 64bit overflow when a value is multiplied with the calculated mult factor. The larger the conversion range the less becomes the conversion accuracy. Provide two inline wrappers which handle clock events and clock sources. For clock events the "from" frequency is nano seconds per second which corresponds to 1GHz and "to" is the device frequency. For clock sources "from" is the device frequency and "to" is nano seconds per second.

2009-08-28clocksource: Resolve cpu hotplug dead lock with TSC unstableThomas Gleixner1-0/+1
Martin Schwidefsky analyzed it: To register a clocksource the clocksource_mutex is acquired and if necessary timekeeping_notify is called to install the clocksource as the timekeeper clock. timekeeping_notify uses stop_machine which needs to take cpu_add_remove_lock mutex. Starting a new cpu is done with the cpu_add_remove_lock mutex held. native_cpu_up checks the tsc of the new cpu and if the tsc is no good clocksource_change_rating is called. Which needs the clocksource_mutex and the deadlock is complete. The solution is to replace the TSC via the clocksource watchdog mechanism. Mark the TSC as unstable and schedule the watchdog work so it gets removed in the watchdog thread context.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Move NTP adjusted clock multiplier to struct timekeeperMartin Schwidefsky1-3/+1
The clocksource structure has two multipliers, the unmodified multiplier clock->mult_orig and the NTP corrected multiplier clock->mult. The NTP multiplier is misplaced in the struct clocksource, this is private information of the timekeeping code. Add the mult field to the struct timekeeper to contain the NTP corrected value, keep the unmodifed multiplier in clock->mult and remove clock->mult_orig.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Introduce struct timekeeperMartin Schwidefsky1-50/+4
Add struct timekeeper to keep the internal values timekeeping.c needs in regard to the currently selected clock source. This moves the timekeeping intervals, xtime_nsec and the ntp error value from struct clocksource to struct timekeeper. The raw_time is removed from the clocksource as well. It gets treated like xtime as a global variable. Eventually xtime raw_time should be moved to struct timekeeper.

2009-08-15clocksource: Cleanup clocksource selectionMartin Schwidefsky1-0/+2
If a non high-resolution clocksource is first set as override clock and then registered it becomes active even if the system is in one-shot mode. Move the override check from sysfs_override_clocksource to the clocksource selection. That fixes the bug and simplifies the code. The check in clocksource_register for double registration of the same clocksource is removed without replacement. To find the initial clocksource a new weak function in jiffies.c is defined that returns the jiffies clocksource. The architecture code can then override the weak function with a more suitable clocksource, e.g. the TOD clock on s390.

2009-08-15timekeeping: Remove clocksource inline functionsMartin Schwidefsky1-58/+0
The three inline functions clocksource_read, clocksource_enable and clocksource_disable are simple wrappers of an indirect call plus the copy from and to the mult_orig value. The functions are exclusively used by the timekeeping code which has intimate knowledge of the clocksource anyway. Therefore remove the inline functions. No functional change.

2009-05-02clocksource: setup mult_orig in clocksource_enable()Magnus Damm1-1/+9
Setup clocksource mult_orig in clocksource_enable(). Clocksource drivers can save power by using keeping the device clock disabled while the clocksource is unused. In practice this means that the enable() and disable() callbacks perform clk_enable() and clk_disable(). The enable() callback may also use clk_get_rate() to get the clock rate from the clock framework. This information can then be used to calculate the shift and mult variables. Currently the mult_orig variable is setup from mult at registration time only. This is conflicting with the above case since the clock is disabled and the mult variable is not yet calculated at the time of registration. Moving the mult_orig setup code to clocksource_enable() allows us to both handle the common case with no enable() callback and the mult-changed-after-enable() case.

2009-02-15clocksource: allow usage independent of timekeeping.cPatrick Ohly1-0/+101
So far struct clocksource acted as the interface between time/timekeeping.c and hardware. This patch generalizes the concept so that a similar interface can also be used in other contexts. For that it introduces new structures and related functions *without* touching the existing struct clocksource. The reasons for adding these new structures to clocksource.[ch] are * the APIs are clearly related * struct clocksource could be cleaned up to use the new structs * avoids proliferation of files with similar names (timesource.h? timecounter.h?) As outlined in the discussion with John Stultz, this patch adds * struct cyclecounter: stateless API to hardware which counts clock cycles * struct timecounter: stateful utility code built on a cyclecounter which provides a nanosecond counter * only the function to read the nanosecond counter; deltas are used internally and not exposed to users of timecounter The code does no locking of the shared state. It must be called at least as often as the cycle counter wraps around to detect these wrap arounds. Both is the responsibility of the timecounter user.

2008-08-21clocksource: introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAWJohn Stultz1-0/+3
In talking with Josip Loncaric, and his work on clock synchronization (see btime.sf.net), he mentioned that for really close synchronization, it is useful to have access to "hardware time", that is a notion of time that is not in any way adjusted by the clock slewing done to keep close time sync. Part of the issue is if we are using the kernel's ntp adjusted representation of time in order to measure how we should correct time, we can run into what Paul McKenney aptly described as "Painting a road using the lines we're painting as the guide". I had been thinking of a similar problem, and was trying to come up with a way to give users access to a purely hardware based time representation that avoided users having to know the underlying frequency and mask values needed to deal with the wide variety of possible underlying hardware counters. My solution is to introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW. This exposes a nanosecond based time value, that increments starting at bootup and has no frequency adjustments made to it what so ever. The time is accessed from userspace via the posix_clock_gettime() syscall, passing CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW as the clock_id.
