* time: Remove development rules from Kbuild/MakefileThomas Gleixner2015-07-011-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | time.o gets rebuilt unconditionally due to a leftover Makefile rule which was placed there for development purposes.

* kernel: time: Add udelay_test module to validate udelayDavid Riley2014-07-231-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a module that allows udelay() to be executed to ensure that it is delaying at least as long as requested (with a little bit of error allowed). There are some configurations which don't have reliably udelay due to using a loop delay with cpufreq changes which should use a counter time based delay instead.

* tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcastPreeti U Murthy2014-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* time: remove the timecompare code.Richard Cochran2012-11-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the timecompare code from the kernel. The top five reasons to do this are: 1. There are no more users of this code. 2.

* timers: Introduce in-kernel alarm-timer interfaceJohn Stultz2011-04-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides the in kernel interface and infrastructure for alarm-timers. Alarm-timers are a hybrid style timer, similar to hrtimers, but when the system is suspended, the RTC device is set to fire and wake the system for when the soonest alarm-timer expires. The concept for Alarm-timers was inspired by the Android Alarm driver (by Arve Hjønnevåg) found in the Android kernel tree. See: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/common.git;a=blob;f=drivers/rtc/alarm.c;h=1250edfbdf3302f5e4ea6194847c6ef4bb7beb1c;hb=android-2.6.36 This in-kernel interface should be fairly compatible with the Android alarm driver in-kernel interface, but has the advantage of utilizing the new RTC timerqueue code instead of doing direct RTC manipulation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for adding and removing posix clocks. The clock lifetime cycle is patterned after usb devices. Each clock is represented by a standard character device. In addition, the driver may optionally implement custom character device operations. The posix clock and timer system calls listed below now work with dynamic posix clocks, as well as the traditional static clocks. The following system calls are affected: - clock_adjtime (brand new syscall) - clock_gettime - clock_getres - clock_settime - timer_create - timer_delete - timer_gettime - timer_settime [ tglx: Adapted to the posix-timer cleanup.

* timecompare: generic infrastructure to map between two time basesPatrick Ohly2009-02-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mapping from a struct timecounter to a time returned by functions like ktime_get_real() is implemented. This is sufficient to use this code in a network device driver which wants to support hardware time stamping and transformation of hardware time stamps to system time. The interface could have been made more versatile by not depending on a time counter, but this wasn't done to avoid writing glue code elsewhere.

* [PATCH] Time: Clocksource Infrastructurejohn stultz2006-06-261-0/+1
This introduces the clocksource management infrastructure. A clocksource is a driver-like architecture generic abstraction of a free-running counter. This code defines the clocksource structure, and provides management code for registering, selecting, accessing and scaling clocksources. Additionally, this includes the trivial jiffies clocksource, a lowest common denominator clocksource, provided mainly for use as an example.
