2015-06-19timer: Minimize nohz off overheadThomas Gleixner1-0/+2
If nohz is disabled on the kernel command line the [hr]timer code still calls wake_up_nohz_cpu() and tick_nohz_full_cpu(), a pretty pointless exercise. Cache nohz_active in [hr]timer per cpu bases and avoid the overhead.

2015-06-19timer: Reduce timer migration overhead if disabledThomas Gleixner1-0/+2
Eric reported that the timer_migration sysctl is not really nice performance wise as it needs to check at every timer insertion whether the feature is enabled or not. Further the check does not live in the timer code, so we have an extra function call which checks an extra cache line to figure out that it is disabled. We can do better and store that information in the per cpu (hr)timer bases. I pondered to use a static key, but that's a nightmare to update from the nohz code and the timer base cache line is hot anyway when we select a timer base. The old logic enabled the timer migration unconditionally if CONFIG_NO_HZ was set even if nohz was disabled on the kernel command line. With this modification, we start off with migration disabled. The user visible sysctl is still set to enabled. If the kernel switches to NOHZ migration is enabled, if the user did not disable it via the sysctl prior to the switch. If nohz=off is on the kernel command line, migration stays disabled no matter what.

2015-06-19hrtimer: Allow hrtimer::function() to free the timerPeter Zijlstra1-25/+16
Currently an hrtimer callback function cannot free its own timer because __run_hrtimer() still needs to clear HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK after it. Freeing the timer would result in a clear use-after-free. Solve this by using a scheme similar to regular timers; track the current running timer in hrtimer_clock_base::running.

2015-06-19hrtimer: Remove HRTIMER_STATE_MIGRATEOleg Nesterov1-5/+1
I do not understand HRTIMER_STATE_MIGRATE. Unless I am totally confused it looks buggy and simply unneeded. migrate_hrtimer_list() sets it to keep hrtimer_active() == T, but this is not enough: this can fool, say, hrtimer_is_queued() in dequeue_signal(). Can't migrate_hrtimer_list() simply use HRTIMER_STATE_ENQUEUED? This fixes the race and we can kill STATE_MIGRATE.

2015-04-22tick: Nohz: Rework next timer evaluationThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
The evaluation of the next timer in the nohz code is based on jiffies while all the tick internals are nano seconds based. We have also to convert hrtimer nanoseconds to jiffies in the !highres case. That's just wrong and introduces interesting corner cases. Turn it around and convert the next timer wheel timer expiry and the rcu event to clock monotonic and base all calculations on nanoseconds. That identifies the case where no timer is pending clearly with an absolute expiry value of KTIME_MAX. Makes the code more readable and gets rid of the jiffies magic in the nohz code.

2015-04-22hrtimer: Get rid of hrtimer softirqThomas Gleixner1-1/+0
hrtimer softirq is a leftover from the initial implementation and serves only the purpose to handle the enqueueing of already expired timers in the high resolution timer mode. We discussed whether we change the return value and force all start sites to handle that the timer is already expired, but that would be a Herculean task and I'm not sure whether its a good idea to enforce that handling on everyone. A simpler solution is to enforce a timer interrupt instead of raising and scheduling a softirq. Just use the existing infrastructure to do so and remove all the softirq leftovers. The HRTIMER softirq enum is now unused, but kept around because trace parsers rely on the existing numbering.

The softirq time field in the clock bases is an optimization from the early days of hrtimers. It provides a coarse "jiffies" like time mostly for self rearming timers. But that comes with a price: - Larger code size - Extra storage space - Duplicated functions with really small differences The benefit of this is optimization is marginal for contemporary systems. Consolidate everything on the high resolution timer implementation. This makes further optimizations possible.

2015-01-23hrtimer: Prevent stale expiry time in hrtimer_interrupt()Thomas Gleixner1-0/+2
hrtimer_interrupt() has the following subtle issue: hrtimer_interrupt() lock(cpu_base); expires_next = KTIME_MAX; expire_timers(CLOCK_MONOTONIC); expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_MONOTONIC); if (expires < expires_next) expires_next = expires; expire_timers(CLOCK_REALTIME); unlock(cpu_base); wakeup() hrtimer_start(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, newtimer); lock(cpu_base(); expires = get_next_timer(CLOCK_REALTIME); if (expires < expires_next) expires_next = expires; So because we already evaluated the next expiring timer of CLOCK_MONOTONIC we ignore that the expiry time of newtimer might be earlier than the overall next expiry time in hrtimer_interrupt(). To solve this, remove the caching of the next expiry value from hrtimer_interrupt() and reevaluate all active clock bases for the next expiry value. To avoid another code duplication, create a shared evaluation function and use it for hrtimer_get_next_event(), hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt(). There is another subtlety in this mechanism: While hrtimer_interrupt() is running, we want to avoid to touch the hardware device because we will reprogram it anyway at the end of hrtimer_interrupt(). This works nicely for hrtimers which get rearmed via the HRTIMER_RESTART mechanism, because we drop out when the callback on that CPU is running. But that fails, if a new timer gets enqueued like in the example above. This has another implication: While hrtimer_interrupt() is running we refuse remote enqueueing of timers - see hrtimer_interrupt() and hrtimer_check_target(). hrtimer_interrupt() tries to prevent this by setting cpu_base->expires to KTIME_MAX, but that fails if a new timer gets queued. Prevent both the hardware access and the remote enqueue explicitely. We can loosen the restriction on the remote enqueue now due to reevaluation of the next expiry value, but that needs a seperate patch. Folded in a fix from Vignesh Radhakrishnan.

2014-06-23hrtimer: Store cpu-number in struct hrtimer_cpu_baseViresh Kumar1-0/+2
In lowres mode, hrtimers are serviced by the tick instead of a clock event. Now it works well as long as the tick stays periodic but we must also make sure that the hrtimers are serviced in dynticks mode. Part of that job consist in kicking a dynticks hrtimer target in order to make it reconsider the next tick to schedule to correctly handle the hrtimer's expiring time. And that part isn't handled by the hrtimers subsystem. To prepare for fixing this, we need __hrtimer_start_range_ns() to be able to resolve the CPU target associated to a hrtimer's object 'cpu_base' so that the kick can be centralized there. So lets store it in the 'struct hrtimer_cpu_base' to resolve the CPU without overhead. It is set once at CPU's online notification.

2012-07-12timekeeping: Provide hrtimer update functionThomas Gleixner1-0/+1
To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().

2012-07-12hrtimer: Provide clock_was_set_delayed()John Stultz1-1/+8
clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because it calls on_each_cpu(). For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to call it from hard interrupt context, i.e. the timer tick code, which does the timekeeping updates. Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base structure of the cpu on which it is called and raise the hrtimer softirq. We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation from softirq context in run_hrtimer_softirq(). The hrtimer softirq is rarely used, so polling the flag there is not a performance issue.

2011-05-23hrtimers: Reorder clock basesThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
The ordering of the clock bases is historical due to the CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC constants. Now the hrtimer bases have their own enumeration due to the gap between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME. So we can be more clever as most timers end up on the CLOCK_MONOTONIC base due to the virtue of POSIX declaring that relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not affected by time changes. In desktop environments this is slowly changing as applications switch to absolute timers, but I've observed empty CLOCK_REALTIME bases often enough. There is no performance penalty or overhead when CLOCK_REALTIME timers are active, but in case they are not we don't skip over a full cache line.

Peter is concerned about the extra scan of CLOCK_REALTIME_COS in the timer interrupt. Yes, I did not think about it, because the solution was so elegant. I didn't like the extra list in timerfd when it was proposed some time ago, but with a rcu based list the list walk it's less horrible than the original global lock, which was held over the list iteration.

2011-05-02timerfd: Allow timers to be cancelled when clock was setThomas Gleixner1-0/+2
Some applications must be aware of clock realtime being set backward. A simple example is a clock applet which arms a timer for the next minute display. If clock realtime is set backward then the applet displays a stale time for the amount of time which the clock was set backwards. Due to that applications poll the time because we don't have an interface. Extend the timerfd interface by adding a flag which puts the timer onto a different internal realtime clock. All timers on this clock are expired whenever the clock was set. The timerfd core records the monotonic offset when the timer is created. When the timer is armed, then the current offset is compared to the previous recorded offset. When it has changed, then timerfd_settime returns -ECANCELED. When a timer is read the offset is compared and if it changed -ECANCELED returned to user space. Periodic timers are not rearmed in the cancelation case.

2011-02-21timers: Add CLOCK_BOOTTIME hrtimer baseJohn Stultz1-0/+1
CLOCK_MONOTONIC stops while the system is in suspend. This is because to applications system suspend is invisible. However, there is a growing set of applications that are wanting to be suspend-aware, but do not want to deal with the complications of CLOCK_REALTIME (which might jump around if settimeofday is called). For these applications, I propose a new clockid: CLOCK_BOOTTIME. CLOCK_BOOTTIME is idential to CLOCK_MONOTONIC, except it also includes any time spent in suspend. This patch add hrtimer base for CLOCK_BOOTTIME, using get_monotonic_boottime/ktime_get_boottime, to allow in kernel users to set timers against.

The hrtimer code is written mainly with CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC in mind. These are clockids 0 and 1 resepctively. However, if we are to introduce any new hrtimer bases, using new clockids, we have to skip the cputimers (clockids 2,3) as well as other clockids that may not impelement timers. This patch adds a little bit of indirection between the clockid and the base, so that we can extend the base by one when we add a new clockid at number 7 or so.

2009-12-10hrtimer: Tune hrtimer_interrupt hang logicThomas Gleixner1-4/+9
The hrtimer_interrupt hang logic adjusts min_delta_ns based on the execution time of the hrtimer callbacks. This is error-prone for virtual machines, where a guest vcpu can be scheduled out during the execution of the callbacks (and the callbacks themselves can do operations that translate to blocking operations in the hypervisor), which in can lead to large min_delta_ns rendering the system unusable. Replace the current heuristics with something more reliable. Allow the interrupt code to try 3 times to catch up with the lost time. If that fails use the total time spent in the interrupt handler to defer the next timer interrupt so the system can catch up with other things which got delayed. Limit that deferment to 100ms. The retry events and the maximum time spent in the interrupt handler are recorded and exposed via /proc/timer_list Inspired by a patch from Marcelo.
