* x86/vdso: Move DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING into the vdso makefileAndy Lutomirski2014-06-241-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING turns off branch profiling (i.e. a redefinition of 'if'). Branch profiling depends on a bunch of kernel-internal symbols and generates extra output sections, none of which are useful or functional in the vDSO. It's currently turned off for vclock_gettime.c, but vgetcpu.c also triggers branch profiling, so just turn it off in the makefile. This fixes the build on some configurations: the vdso could contain undefined symbols, and the fake section table overflowed due to ftrace's added sections.

* x86, vdso: Move the vvar and hpet mappings next to the 64-bit vDSOAndy Lutomirski2014-05-051-17/+5
| | | | | | | | | This makes the 64-bit and x32 vdsos use the same mechanism as the 32-bit vdso. Most of the churn is deleting all the old fixmap code.

* x86, vdso: Reimplement vdso.so preparation in build-time CAndy Lutomirski2014-05-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF parsers in the kernel. Replace all of that with plain C code that runs at build time. All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and linked in to the kernel image. This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO images are stripped more heavily than they used to be. Everything outside the loadable segment is dropped. In particular, this causes the section table and section name strings to be missing. This should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these tables anyway. The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's --strip-sections option. The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment. Currently, it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or hpet page. This happens whenever the load segment is just under a multiple of PAGE_SIZE. The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'. This most likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall. That caused ld to relocate the reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic relocation. Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it work. vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't silently generate bad vdso images. (Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt to relocate the vdso.)

* x86, vdso: Add 32 bit VDSO time support for 64 bit kernelStefani Seibold2014-03-181-41/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch add the VDSO time support for the IA32 Emulation Layer. Due the nature of the kernel headers and the LP64 compiler where the size of a long and a pointer differs against a 32 bit compiler, there is some type hacking necessary for optimal performance. The vsyscall_gtod_data struture must be a rearranged to serve 32- and 64-bit code access at the same time: - The seqcount_t was replaced by an unsigned, this makes the vsyscall_gtod_data intedepend of kernel configuration and internal functions. - All kernel internal structures are replaced by fix size elements which works for 32- and 64-bit access - The inner struct clock was removed to pack the whole struct. The "unsigned seq" would be handled by functions derivated from seqcount_t.

* seqcount: Add lockdep functionality to seqcount/seqlock structuresJohn Stultz2013-11-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently seqlocks and seqcounts don't support lockdep. After running across a seqcount related deadlock in the timekeeping code, I used a less-refined and more focused variant of this patch to narrow down the cause of the issue. This is a first-pass attempt to properly enable lockdep functionality on seqlocks and seqcounts. Since seqcounts are used in the vdso gettimeofday code, I've provided non-lockdep accessors for those needs. I've also handled one case where there were nested seqlock writers and there may be more edge cases. Comments and feedback would be appreciated!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux as a guest on KVM hypervisor, the only user of the pvclock vsyscall interface, does not require notification on task migration because: 1. cpu ID number maps 1:1 to per-CPU pvclock time info. 2. per-CPU pvclock time info is updated if the underlying CPU changes. 3. that version is increased whenever underlying CPU changes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When switching from a vsyscall capable to a non-vsyscall capable clocksource, there was a small race, where the last vsyscall gettimeofday before the switch might return a invalid time value using the new non-vsyscall enabled clocksource values after the switch is complete. This is due to the vsyscall code checking the vclock_mode once outside of the seqcount protected section. After it reads the vclock mode, it doesn't re-check that the sampled clock data that is obtained in the seqcount critical section still matches. The fix is to sample vclock_mode inside the protected section, and as long as it isn't VCLOCK_NONE, return the calculated value. If it has changed and is now VCLOCK_NONE, fall back to the syscall gettime calculation. v2: * Cleanup checks as suggested by tglx * Also fix same issue present in gettimeofday path CC: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Variables that are shared between the vdso and the kernel are currently a bit of a mess. They are each defined with their own magic, they are accessed differently in the kernel, the vsyscall page, and the vdso, and one of them (vsyscall_clock) doesn't even really exist. This changes them all to use a common mechanism. All of them are delcared in vvar.h with a fixed address (validated by the linker script). In the kernel (as before), they look like ordinary read-write variables. In the vsyscall page and the vdso, they are accessed through a new macro VVAR, which gives read-only access. The vdso is now loaded verbatim into memory without any fixups. As a side bonus, access from the vdso is faster because a level of indirection is removed. While we're at it, pack jiffies and vgetcpu_mode into the same cacheline.

* time: Introduce CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSEjohn stultz2009-08-211-3/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After talking with some application writers who want very fast, but not fine-grained timestamps, I decided to try to implement new clock_ids to clock_gettime(): CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE which returns the time at the last tick. This is very fast as we don't have to access any hardware (which can be very painful if you're using something like the acpi_pm clocksource), and we can even use the vdso clock_gettime() method to avoid the syscall. The only trade off is you only get low-res tick grained time resolution. This isn't a new idea, I know Ingo has a patch in the -rt tree that made the vsyscall gettimeofday() return coarse grained time when the vsyscall64 sysctrl was set to 2. However this affects all applications on a system. With this method, applications can choose the proper speed/granularity trade-off for themselves.

| * x86: use explicit copy in vdso_gettimeofday()Andi Kleen2008-05-231-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jeremy's gcc 3.4 seems to be unable to inline a 8 byte memcpy. But the vdso doesn't support external references. Copy the structure members of struct timezone explicitely instead.

|/ | | | | | | | | | Add the notrace annotations to the vsyscall functions - there we are not in kernel context yet, so the tracer function cannot (and must not) be called.
