2017-06-30nanosleep: Use get_timespec64() and put_timespec64()Deepa Dinamani1-17/+13
Usage of these apis and their compat versions makes the syscalls: clock_nanosleep and nanosleep and their compat implementations simpler. This is a preparatory patch to isolate data conversions to struct timespec64 at userspace boundaries. This helps contain the changes needed to transition to new y2038 safe types.

Turn restart_block.nanosleep.{rmtp,compat_rmtp} into a tagged union (kind = 1 -> native, kind = 2 -> compat, kind = 0 -> nothing) and make the places doing actual copyout handle compat as well as native (that will become a helper in the next commit).

2017-06-14hrtimer: Move copyout of remaining time to do_nanosleep()Al Viro1-42/+20
The hrtimer nanosleep() implementation can be simplified by moving the copy out of the remaining time to do_nanosleep() which is shared between the real nanosleep function and the restart function. The pointer to the timespec64 which is updated is already stored in the restart block at the call site, so the seperate handling of nanosleep and restart function can be avoided.

2017-02-18hrtimer: Catch invalid clockids againMarc Zyngier1-5/+15
commit 82e88ff1ea94 ("hrtimer: Revert CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW support") removed unfortunately a sanity check in the hrtimer code which was part of that MONOTONIC_RAW patch series. It would have caught the bogus usage of CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in the wireless code. So bring it back. It is way too easy to take any random clockid and feed it to the hrtimer subsystem. At best, it gets mapped to a monotonic base, but it would be better to just catch illegal values as early as possible. Detect invalid clockids, map them to CLOCK_MONOTONIC and emit a warning.

2016-12-25ktime: Get rid of the unionThomas Gleixner1-26/+26
ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but become completely pointless. Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64. The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

2016-10-26timers: Fix documentation for schedule_timeout() and similarDouglas Anderson1-6/+14
The documentation for schedule_timeout(), schedule_hrtimeout(), and schedule_hrtimeout_range() all claim that the routines couldn't possibly return early if the task state was TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. This is simply not true since wake_up_process() will cause those routines to exit early. We cannot make schedule_[hr]timeout() loop until the timeout expires if the task state is uninterruptible because we have users which rely on the existing and designed behaviour. Make the documentation match the (correct) implementation. schedule_hrtimeout() returns -EINTR even when a uninterruptible task was woken up. This might look strange, but making the return code depend on the state is too much of an effort as it would affect all the call sites. There is no value in doing so, but we spell it out clearly in the documentation.

2016-05-20debugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup ↵Du, Changbin1-6/+1
callbacks When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

2016-03-18timer: convert timer_slack_ns from unsigned long to u64John Stultz1-4/+4
This patchset introduces a /proc/<pid>/timerslack_ns interface which would allow controlling processes to be able to set the timerslack value on other processes in order to save power by avoiding wakeups (Something Android currently does via out-of-tree patches). The first patch tries to fix the internal timer_slack_ns usage which was defined as a long, which limits the slack range to ~4 seconds on 32bit systems. It converts it to a u64, which provides the same basically unlimited slack (500 years) on both 32bit and 64bit machines. The second patch introduces the /proc/<pid>/timerslack_ns interface which allows the full 64bit slack range for a task to be read or set on both 32bit and 64bit machines. With these two patches, on a 32bit machine, after setting the slack on bash to 10 seconds: $ time sleep 1 real 0m10.747s user 0m0.001s sys 0m0.005s The first patch is a little ugly, since I had to chase the slack delta arguments through a number of functions converting them to u64s. Let me know if it makes sense to break that up more or not. Other than that things are fairly straightforward. This patch (of 2): The timer_slack_ns value in the task struct is currently a unsigned long. This means that on 32bit applications, the maximum slack is just over 4 seconds. However, on 64bit machines, its much much larger (~500 years). This disparity could make application development a little (as well as the default_slack) to a u64. This means both 32bit and 64bit systems have the same effective internal slack range. Now the existing ABI via PR_GET_TIMERSLACK and PR_SET_TIMERSLACK specify the interface as a unsigned long, so we preserve that limitation on 32bit systems, where SET_TIMERSLACK can only set the slack to a unsigned long value, and GET_TIMERSLACK will return ULONG_MAX if the slack is actually larger then what can be stored by an unsigned long. This patch also modifies hrtimer functions which specified the slack delta as a unsigned long.

2016-01-17hrtimer: Handle remaining time proper for TIME_LOW_RESThomas Gleixner1-18/+37
If CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES is enabled we add a jiffie to the relative timeout to prevent short sleeps, but we do not account for that in interfaces which retrieve the remaining time. Helge observed that timerfd can return a remaining time larger than the relative timeout. That's not expected and breaks userland test programs. Store the information that the timer was armed relative and provide functions to adjust the remaining time. To avoid bloating the hrtimer struct make state a u8, which as a bonus results in better code on x86 at least.

2015-06-19timer: Reduce timer migration overhead if disabledThomas Gleixner1-8/+27
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.

2015-05-19clockevents: Stop unused clockevent devicesViresh Kumar1-4/+2
To avoid getting spurious interrupts on a tickless CPU, clockevent device can now be stopped by switching to ONESHOT_STOPPED state. The natural place for handling this transition is tick_program_event(). On 'expires == KTIME_MAX', we skip programming the event and so we need to fix such call sites as well, to always call tick_program_event() irrespective of the expires value. Once the clockevent device is required again, check if it was earlier put into ONESHOT_STOPPED state. If yes, switch its state to ONESHOT before programming its event. To make sure we haven't missed any corner case, add a WARN() for the case where we try to reprogram clockevent device while we aren't configured in ONESHOT_STOPPED state.

2015-05-13ktime: Fix ktime_divns to do signed divisionJohn Stultz1-6/+8
It was noted that the 32bit implementation of ktime_divns() was doing unsigned division and didn't properly handle negative values. And when a ktime helper was changed to utilize ktime_divns, it caused a regression on some IR blasters. See the following bugzilla for details: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1200353 This patch fixes the problem in ktime_divns by checking and preserving the sign bit, and then reapplying it if appropriate after the division, it also changes the return type to a s64 to make it more obvious this is expected. Nicolas also pointed out that negative dividers would cause infinite loops on 32bit systems, negative dividers is unlikely for users of this function, but out of caution this patch adds checks for negative dividers for both 32-bit (BUG_ON) and 64-bit(WARN_ON) versions to make sure no such use cases creep in.

2015-04-22hrtimer: Allow concurrent hrtimer_start() for self restarting timersPeter Zijlstra1-3/+9
Because we drop cpu_base->lock around calling hrtimer::function, it is possible for hrtimer_start() to come in between and enqueue the timer. If hrtimer::function then returns HRTIMER_RESTART we'll hit the BUG_ON because HRTIMER_STATE_ENQUEUED will be set. Since the above is a perfectly valid scenario, remove the BUG_ON and make the enqueue_hrtimer() call conditional on the timer not being enqueued already. NOTE: in that concurrent scenario its entirely common for both sites to want to modify the hrtimer, since hrtimers don't provide serialization themselves be sure to provide some such that the hrtimer::function and the hrtimer_start() caller don't both try and fudge the expiration state at the same time. To that effect, add a WARN when someone tries to forward an already enqueued timer, the most common way to change the expiry of self restarting timers. Ideally we'd put the WARN in everything modifying the expiry but most of that is inlines and we don't need the bloat.

This is useful for hotpath users like nanosleep as they avoid the lock dance when the timer has expired. This is safe because active is true when the timer is enqueued or the callback is running.

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.
