arm64: arch_timer: Work around QorIQ Erratum A-008585

2016-09-23T16:19:25+00:00

Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core clock cycles every time the timer value changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter reads before and after the write return the same value. The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in the timer node in the device tree. This can be overridden with the clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to automatically communicate this information. This erratum can be found on LS1043A and LS2080A. Acked-by: Marc Zyngier Signed-off-by: Scott Wood [will: renamed read macro to reflect that it's not usually unstable] Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

arm64: arch_timer: simplify accessors

2016-09-09T10:41:13+00:00

A while back we added {read,write}_sysreg accessors to handle accesses to system registers, without the usual boilerplate asm volatile, temporary variable, etc. This patch makes use of these in the arm64 arch timer accessors to make the code shorter and clearer.

arm64: fix missing linux/bug.h include in asm/arch_timer.h

2015-01-07T11:40:59+00:00

On next-20150105, defconfig compilation breaks with: ./arch/arm64/include/asm/arch_timer.h:112:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘BUG’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] Fix by including linux/bug.h, where the BUG macro is defined. This second version incorporates a comment from Mark Rutland to keep the includes in alphabetical order by filename.

clocksource: arch_timer: Fix code to use physical timers when requested

2014-12-05T07:30:26+00:00

This is a bug fix for using physical arch timers when the arch_timer_use_virtual boolean is false. It restores the arch_counter_get_cntpct() function after removal in 0d651e4e "clocksource: arch_timer: use virtual counters" We need this on certain ARMv7 systems which are architected like this: * The firmware doesn't know and doesn't care about hypervisor mode and we don't want to add the complexity of hypervisor there. * The firmware isn't involved in SMP bringup or resume. * The ARCH timer come up with an uninitialized offset between the virtual and physical counters. Each core gets a different random offset. * The device boots in "Secure SVC" mode. * Nothing has touched the reset value of CNTHCTL.PL1PCEN or CNTHCTL.PL1PCTEN (both default to 1 at reset) One example of such as system is RK3288 where it is much simpler to use the physical counter since there's nobody managing the offset and each time a core goes down and comes back up it will get reinitialized to some other random value.

clocksource: arm_arch_timer: Consolidate arch_timer_evtstrm_enable

2014-09-28T23:59:26+00:00

The arch_timer_evtstrm_enable hooks in arm and arm64 are substantially similar, the only difference being a CONFIG_COMPAT-conditional section which is relevant only for arm64. Copy the arm64 version to the driver, removing the arch-specific hooks. Signed-off-by: Nathan Lynch Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano Acked-by: Will Deacon

clocksource: arm_arch_timer: Enable counter access for 32-bit ARM

2014-09-28T23:59:25+00:00

The only difference between arm and arm64's implementations of arch_counter_set_user_access is that 32-bit ARM does not enable user access to the virtual counter. We want to enable this access for the 32-bit ARM VDSO, so copy the arm64 version to the driver itself, and remove the arch-specific implementations.

ARM64: arch_timer: add support to configure and enable event stream

2013-09-26T08:47:43+00:00

This patch adds support for configuring the event stream frequency and enabling it. It also adds the hwcaps as well as compat-specific definitions to the user to detect this event stream feature.

2013-08-21T12:59:23+00:00

* Support for memory mapped arch_timers * Trivial fixes to the moxart timer code * Documentation updates Trivial conflicts in drivers/clocksource/arm_arch_timer.c. Fixed up the newly added __cpuinit annotations as well. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner

clocksource: arch_timer: Push the read/write wrappers deeper

2013-07-31T23:13:37+00:00

We're going to introduce support to read and write the memory mapped timer registers in the next patch, so push the cp15 read/write functions one level deeper. This simplifies the next patch and makes it clearer what's going on. Cc: Mark Rutland Cc: Marc Zyngier Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano Acked-by: Mark Rutland
