* s390/time: steer clocksource on STP sync eventsMartin Schwidefsky2016-10-281-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | On STP sync events the TOD clock will jump in time, either forward or backward. The TOD clocksource claims to be continuous but in case of an STP sync with a negative offset it is not. Subtract the offset injected by the STP sync check from the result of the TOD clocksource to make it continuous again. Add code to drift the offset towards zero with a fixed rate, steering 1 second in ~9 hours.

* s390/vdso: fix stack corruptionHeiko Carstens2014-10-271-6/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel provided vdso functions do not get a stack frame from the calling function and therefore may not change the stack contents, unless they allocate space on their own. This problem was exposed with 070b7be633dc "s390/vdso: replace stck with stcke" which writes 16 bytes instead of 8 bytes into the stack frame. These additional 8 bytes however were indeed used by the caller (glibc) to save data and therefore this data was corrupted by the vdso code.

* s390/vdso: replace stck with stckeMartin Schwidefsky2014-09-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | If gettimeofday / clock_gettime are called multiple times in a row the STCK instruction will stall until a difference in the result is visible. This unnecessarily slows down the vdso calls, use stcke instead of stck to get rid of the stall. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* s390/time,vdso: convert to the new update_vsyscall interfaceMartin Schwidefsky2013-11-251-4/+5
| | | | | | | Switch to the improved update_vsyscall interface that provides sub-nanosecond precision for gettimeofday and clock_gettime. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] vdso: use ntp adjusted clock multiplierHendrik Brueckner2010-04-221-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit "timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp" (0696b711e) introduced the new parameter "mult" to update_vsyscall(). This parameter contains the internal NTP adjusted clock multiplier. The s390x vdso did not use this adjusted multiplier. Instead, it used the constant clock multiplier for gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() variants. This may result in observable time warps as explained in commit 0696b711e. Make the NTP adjusted clock multiplier available to the s390x vdso implementation and use it for time calculations.
