* clocksource: Resume clocksource without taking the clocksource mutexMartin Schwidefsky2009-09-241-4/+0

* clocksource: Delay clocksource down rating to late bootThomas Gleixner2009-09-141-10/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The down rating of clock sources in the early boot process via the clock source watchdog mechanism can happen way before the per cpu event queues are initialized. This leads to a boot crash on x86 when the TSC is marked unstable in the SMP bring up. The selection of a clock source for time keeping happens in the late boot process so we can safely delay the list manipulation until clocksource_done_booting() is called.

* clocksource: Resolve cpu hotplug dead lock with TSC unstable, fix crashMartin Schwidefsky2009-09-111-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The watchdog timer is started after the watchdog clocksource and at least one watched clocksource have been registered. The clocksource work element watchdog_work is initialized just before the clocksource timer is started. This is too late for the clocksource_mark_unstable call from native_cpu_up. To fix this use a static initializer for watchdog_work. This resolves a boot crash reported by multiple people.

* clocksource: Resolve cpu hotplug dead lock with TSC unstableThomas Gleixner2009-08-281-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* clocksource: Protect the watchdog rating changes with clocksource_mutexThomas Gleixner2009-08-191-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Martin pointed out that commit 6ea41d2529 (clocksource: Call clocksource_change_rating() outside of watchdog_lock) has a theoretical reference count problem. The calls to clocksource_change_rating() are now done outside of the clocksource mutex and outside of the watchdog lock. A concurrent clocksource_unregister() could remove the clock. Split out the code which changes the rating from clocksource_change_rating() into __clocksource_change_rating(). Protect the clocksource_watchdog_work() code sequence with the clocksource_mutex() and call __clocksource_change_rating().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* clocksource: Cleanup clocksource selectionMartin Schwidefsky2009-08-151-83/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* clocksource: setup mult_orig in clocksource_enable()Magnus Damm2009-05-021-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* clocksource: allow usage independent of timekeeping.cPatrick Ohly2009-02-151-0/+76
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* clocksource: keep track of original clocksource frequencyJohn Stultz2008-08-211-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The clocksource frequency is represented by clocksource->mult/2^(clocksource->shift). Currently, when NTP makes adjustments to the clock frequency, they are made directly to the mult value. This has the drawback that once changed, we cannot know what the orignal mult value was, or how much adjustment has been applied. This property causes problems in calculating proper ntp intervals when switching back and forth between clocksources. This patch separates the current mult value into a mult and mult_orig pair. The mult_orig value stays constant, while the ntp clocksource adjustments are done only to the mult value. This allows for correct ntp interval calculation and additionally lays the groundwork for a new notion of time, what I'm calling the monotonic-raw time, which is introduced in a following patch.

* time: fix sysfs_show_{available,current}_clocksources() buffer overflow problemMiao Xie2008-02-061-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found that there is a buffer overflow problem in the following code. Version: 2.6.24-rc2, File: kernel/time/clocksource.c:417-432 -------------------------------------------------------------------- static ssize_t sysfs_show_available_clocksources(struct sys_device *dev, char *buf) { struct clocksource *src; char *curr = buf; spin_lock_irq(&clocksource_lock); list_for_each_entry(src, &clocksource_list, list) { curr += sprintf(curr, "%s ", src->name); } spin_unlock_irq(&clocksource_lock); curr += sprintf(curr, "\n"); return curr - buf; } ----------------------------------------------------------------------- sysfs_show_current_clocksources() also has the same problem though in practice the size of current clocksource's name won't exceed PAGE_SIZE. I fix the bug by using snprintf according to the specification of the kernel (Version:2.6.24-rc2,File:Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt) Fix sysfs_show_available_clocksources() and sysfs_show_current_clocksources() buffer overflow problem with snprintf().

* clocksource: fix resume logicThomas Gleixner2007-05-091-0/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need to make sure that the clocksources are resumed, when timekeeping is resumed. The current resume logic does not guarantee this. Add a resume function pointer to the clocksource struct, so clocksource drivers which need to reinitialize the clocksource can provide a resume function. Add a resume function, which calls the maybe available clocksource resume functions and resets the watchdog function, so a stable TSC can be used accross suspend/resume.

* [PATCH] clocksource: Fix thinko in watchdog selectionThomas Gleixner2007-03-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The watchdog implementation excludes low res / non continuous clocksources from being selected as a watchdog reference unintentionally. Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better clocksource is available. This is necessary to detect TSC breakage on systems, which have no pmtimer/hpet. The main goal of the initial patch (preventing to switch to highres/nohz when no reliable fallback clocksource is available) is still guaranteed by the checks in clocksource_watchdog().

* [PATCH] clocksource init adjustments (fix bug #7426)john stultz2007-03-051-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch resolves the issue found here: http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426 The basic summary is: Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case), where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to the small sampling time used. It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init time. Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall). This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own boxes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kernel/time/clocksource.c needs struct task_struct on m68k. Because it uses spin_unlock_irq(), which, on m68k, uses hardirq_count(), which uses preempt_count(), which needs to dereference struct task_struct, we have to include sched.h. Because it would cause a loop inclusion, we cannot include sched.h in any other of asm-m68k/system.h, linux/thread_info.h, linux/hardirq.h, which leaves this ugly include in a C file as the only simple solution.
