2016-12-01alarmtimer: Add tracepoints for alarm timersBaolin Wang1-0/+5
Alarm timers are one of the mechanisms to wake up a system from suspend, but there exist no tracepoints to analyse which process/thread armed an alarmtimer. Add tracepoints for start/cancel/expire of individual alarm timers and one for tracing the suspend time decision when to resume the system. The following trace excerpt illustrates the new mechanism: Binder:3292_2-3304 [000] d..2 149.981123: alarmtimer_cancel: alarmtimer:ffffffc1319a7800 type:REALTIME expires:1325463120000000000 now:1325376810370370245 Binder:3292_2-3304 [000] d..2 149.981136: alarmtimer_start: alarmtimer:ffffffc1319a7800 type:REALTIME expires:1325376840000000000 now:1325376810370384591 Binder:3292_9-3953 [000] d..2 150.212991: alarmtimer_cancel: alarmtimer:ffffffc1319a5a00 type:BOOTTIME expires:179552000000 now:150154008122 Binder:3292_9-3953 [000] d..2 150.213006: alarmtimer_start: alarmtimer:ffffffc1319a5a00 type:BOOTTIME expires:179551000000 now:150154025622 system_server-3000 [002] ...1 162.701940: alarmtimer_suspend: alarmtimer type:REALTIME expires:1325376840000000000 The wakeup time which is selected at suspend time allows to map it back to the task arming the timer: Binder:3292_2. [ tglx: Store alarm timer expiry time instead of some useless RTC relative information, add proper type information for wakeups which are handled via the clock_nanosleep/freezer and massage the changelog. ] Signed-off-by: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1480372524-15181-5-git-send-email-john.stultz@linaro.org Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

We want to get rid of the hrtimer_start() return value and the alarm timer return value is nowhere used. Remove it.

2013-05-29alarmtimer: Add functions for timerfd supportTodd Poynor1-0/+4
Add functions needed for hooking up alarmtimer to timerfd: * alarm_restart: Similar to hrtimer_restart, restart an alarmtimer after the expires time has already been updated (as with alarm_forward). * alarm_forward_now: Similar to hrtimer_forward_now, move the expires time forward to an interval from the current time of the associated clock. * alarm_start_relative: Start an alarmtimer with an expires time relative to the current time of the associated clock. * alarm_expires_remaining: Similar to hrtimer_expires_remaining, return the amount of time remaining until alarm expiry.

2012-09-24alarmtimer: Use hrtimer per-alarm instead of per-baseJohn Stultz1-1/+2
Arve Hjønnevåg reported numerous crashes from the "BUG_ON(timer->state != HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK)" check in __run_hrtimer after it called alarmtimer_fired. It ends up the alarmtimer code was not properly handling possible failures of hrtimer_try_to_cancel, and because these faulres occur when the underlying base hrtimer is being run, this limits the ability to properly handle modifications to any alarmtimers on that base. Because much of the logic duplicates the hrtimer logic, it seems that we might as well have a per-alarmtimer hrtimer, and avoid the extra complextity of trying to multiplex many alarmtimers off of one hrtimer. Thus this patch moves the hrtimer to the alarm structure and simplifies the management logic.

2012-04-21alarmtimer: Provide accessor to alarmtimer rtc deviceJohn Stultz1-0/+3
The Android alarm interface provides a settime call that sets both the alarmtimer RTC device and CLOCK_REALTIME to the same value. Since there may be multiple rtc devices, provide a hook to access the one the alarmtimer infrastructure is using.

2011-08-11alarmtimers: Add try_to_cancel functionalityJohn Stultz1-1/+2
There's a number of edge cases when cancelling a alarm, so to be sure we accurately do so, introduce try_to_cancel, which returns proper failure errors if it cannot. Also modify cancel to spin until the alarm is properly disabled. CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2011-08-11alarmtimers: Add more refined alarm state trackingJohn Stultz1-1/+33
In order to allow for functionality like try_to_cancel, add more refined state tracking (similar to hrtimers). CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2011-08-11alarmtimers: Remove period from alarm structureJohn Stultz1-2/+1
Now that periodic alarmtimers are managed by the handler function, remove the period value from the alarm structure and let the handlers manage the interval on their own. CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>
2011-08-11alarmtimers: Add alarm_forward functionalityJohn Stultz1-0/+2
In order to avoid wasting time expiring and re-adding very high freq periodic alarmtimers, introduce alarm_forward() which is similar to hrtimer_forward and moves the timer to the next future expiration time and returns the number of overruns.

2011-08-11alarmtimers: Change alarmtimer functions to return alarmtimer_restart valuesJohn Stultz1-2/+7
In order to properly fix the denial of service issue with high freq periodic alarm timers, we need to push the re-arming logic into the alarm timer handler, much as the hrtimer code does. This patch introduces alarmtimer_restart enum and changes the alarmtimer handler declarations to use it as a return value. Further, to ease following changes, it extends the alarmtimer handler functions to also take the time at expiration. No logic is yet modified.

2011-04-27timers: Introduce in-kernel alarm-timer interfaceJohn Stultz1-0/+30
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.
