<id>urn:sha1:31f7987406497dc65408dee4e84e3f3cc3ffe9cd</id>
<content type='text'>
Since evt structure is embedded in per-CPU mevt structure it's
definitely faster to use container_of() to get access to mevt
if we have evt (for example as incoming function argument) instead
of more expensive approach with this_cpu_ptr(&amp;percpu_mct_tick).
this_cpu_ptr() on per-CPU mevt structure leads to access to cp15
to get cpu id and arithmetic operations.
Container_of() is cheaper since it's just one asm instruction.
This should work if used evt pointer is correct and owned by
local mevt structure.

For example, before this patch set_state_shutdown() looks like:

 4a4:	e92d4010 	push	{r4, lr}
 4a8:	e3004000 	movw	r4, #0
 4ac:	ebfffffe 	bl	0 &lt;debug_smp_processor_id&gt;
 4b0:	e3003000 	movw	r3, #0
 4b4:	e3404000 	movt	r4, #0
 4b8:	e3403000 	movt	r3, #0
 4bc:	e7933100 	ldr	r3, [r3, r0, lsl #2]
 4c0:	e0844003 	add	r4, r4, r3
 4c4:	e59400c0 	ldr	r0, [r4, #192]	; 0xc0
 4c8:	ebffffd4 	bl	420 &lt;exynos4_mct_tick_stop.isra.1&gt;
 4cc:	e3a00000 	mov	r0, #0
 4d0:	e8bd8010 	pop	{r4, pc}

With this patch:

 4a4:	e92d4010 	push	{r4, lr}
 4a8:	e59000c0 	ldr	r0, [r0, #192]	; 0xc0
 4ac:	ebffffdb 	bl	420 &lt;exynos4_mct_tick_stop.isra.1&gt;
 4b0:	e3a00000 	mov	r0, #0
 4b4:	e8bd8010 	pop	{r4, pc}

Also, for me size of exynos_mct.o decreased from 84588 bytes
to 83956.

Migrate exynos_mct driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.

This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

Patch removes unneeded container_of() macro in exynos4_local_timer_setup().
Instead let's pass mevt pointer to setup and stop functions from
exynos4_mct_cpu_notify() and let them get evt pointer.

Tested on odroid-xu3.

caused by calling request_irq() and free_irq() in the context of

Interrupts cannot be requested/freed in the CPU_STARTING/CPU_DYING
notifications which run on the hotplugged cpu with interrupts and
preemption disabled.

To avoid the issue, request the interrupts for all possible cpus in
the boot code. The interrupts are marked NO_AUTOENABLE to avoid a racy
request_irq/disable_irq() sequence. The flag prevents the
request_irq() code from enabling the interrupt immediately.

The interrupt is then enabled in the CPU_STARTING notifier of the
hotplugged cpu and again disabled with disable_irq_nosync() in the
CPU_DYING notifier.

EXYNOS4_MCT_L_MASK is defined as 0xffffff00, so applying this bitmask
produces a number outside the range 0x00 to 0xff, which always results
in execution of the default switch statement.

Obviously this is wrong and git history shows that the bitmask inversion
was incorrectly set during a refactoring of the MCT code.

Fix this by putting the inversion at the correct position again.

<title>clocksource: exynos_mct: Only use 32-bits where possible</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3252a646aa2cf706b2a26433a8bd9cb2e5dce410</id>
<content type='text'>
The MCT has a nice 64-bit counter.  That means that we _can_ register
as a 64-bit clocksource and sched_clock.  ...but that doesn't mean we
should.

The 64-bit counter is read by reading two 32-bit registers.  That
means reading needs to be something like:
- Read upper half
- Read lower half
- Read upper half and confirm that it hasn't changed.

That wouldn't be terrible, but:
- THe MCT isn't very fast to access (hundreds of nanoseconds).
- The clocksource is queried _all the time_.

In total system profiles of real workloads on ChromeOS, we've seen
exynos_frc_read() taking 2% or more of CPU time even after optimizing
the 3 reads above to 2 (see below).

The MCT is clocked at ~24MHz on all known systems.  That means that
the 32-bit half of the counter rolls over every ~178 seconds.  This
inspired an optimization in ChromeOS to cache the upper half between
calls, moving 3 reads to 2.  ...but we can do better!  Having a 32-bit
timer that flips every 178 seconds is more than sufficient for Linux.
Let's just use the lower half of the MCT.

Times on 5420 to do 1000000 gettimeofday() calls from userspace:
* Original code:                      1323852 us
* ChromeOS cache upper half:          1173084 us
* ChromeOS + ldmia to optimize:       1045674 us
* Use lower 32-bit only (this code):  1014429 us

As you can see, the time used doesn't increase linearly with the
number of reads and we can make 64-bit work almost as fast as 32-bit
with a bit of assembly code.  But since there's no real gain for
64-bit, let's go with the simplest and fastest implementation.

Note: with this change roughly half the time for gettimeofday() is
spent in exynos_frc_read().  The rest is timer / system call overhead.

Also note: this patch disables the use of the MCT on ARM64 systems
until we've sorted out how to make "cycles_t" always 32-bit.  Really
ARM64 systems should be using arch timers anyway.
