Lockdep (on 5.10-rc) points out that we're delivering IRQs while IRQs
are not even enabled, which clearly shouldn't happen. Defer the time
event IRQ delivery until they actually are enabled.

Due a bug - we never checked the time_travel_ext_free_until value - we
were always requesting time for every single scheduling. This adds up
since we make reading time cost 256ns, and it's a fairly common call.
Fix this.
While at it, also make reading time only cost something when we're not
currently waiting for our scheduling turn - otherwise things get mixed
up in a very confusing way. We should never get here, since we're not
actually running, but it's possible if you stick printk() or such into
the virtio code that must handle the external interrupts.

If there is some kind of interrupt negotation or such then
it may happen that we send an update message multiple times,
avoid that in the interest of efficiency by storing the last
transmitted value and only sending a new update if it's not
the same as the last update.

In time-travel mode, we've relied on read_persistent_clock64()
being called only once at system startup, but this is both the
right thing to call from the pseudo-RTC, and also gets called
by the timekeeping core during suspend/resume.
Thus, fix this to always fall make use of the time_travel_time
in any time-travel mode, initializing time_travel_start at boot
to the right value depending on the time-travel mode.

There really is no reason to pass the amount of time we should
sleep, especially since it's just hard-coded to one second.
Additionally, one second isn't really all that long, and as we
are expecting to be woken up by a signal, we can sleep longer
and avoid doing some work every second, so replace the current
clock_nanosleep() with just an empty select() that can _only_
be woken up by a signal.
We can also remove the deliver_alarm() since we don't need to
do that when we got e.g. SIGIO that woke us up, and if we got
SIGALRM the signal handler will actually (have) run, so it's
just unnecessary extra work.
Similarly, in time-travel mode, just program the wakeup event
from idle to be S64_MAX, which is basically the most you could
ever simulate to. Of course, you should already have an event
in the list that's earlier and will cause a wakeup, normally
that's the regular timer interrupt, though in suspend it may
(later) also be an RTC event. Since actually getting to this
point would be a bug and you can't ever get out again, panic()
on it in the time control code.

As the comment here indicates, we need to do the polling in the
idle loop without blocking interrupts, since interrupts can be
vhost-user messages that we must process even while in our idle
loop.
I don't know why I explained one thing and implemented another,
but we have indeed observed random hangs due to this, depending
on the timing of the messages.

In external or inf-cpu time-travel mode, ndelay/udelay currently
just waste CPU time since the simulation time doesn't advance.
Implement them properly in this case.

This implements synchronized time-travel mode which - using a special

Instead of tracking all the various timer configurations,
modify the time-travel mode to have an event scheduler and
use a timer event on the scheduler to handle the different
timer configurations.
This doesn't change the function right now, but it prepares
the code for having different kinds of events in the future
(i.e. interrupts coming from other devices that are part of
co-simulation.)
While at it, also move time_travel_sleep() to time.c to
reduce the externally visible API surface.
Also, we really should mark time-travel as incompatible with
SMP, even if UML doesn't support SMP yet.
Finally, I noticed a bug while developing this - if we move
time forward due to consuming time while reading the clock,
we might move across the next event and that would cause us
to go backward in time when we then handle that event. Fix
that by invoking the whole event machine in this case, but
in order to simplify this, make reading the clock only cost
something when interrupts are not disabled. Otherwise, we'd
have to hook into the interrupt delivery machinery etc. and
that's somewhat intrusive.

We currently do the time updates in the timer handler, even if
we just call the timer handler ourselves. In basic mode we must
in fact do it there since otherwise the OS timer signal won't
move time forward, but in inf-cpu mode we don't need to, and
it's harder to understand.
Restrict the update there to basic mode, adding a comment, and
do it before calling the timer_handler() in inf-cpu mode.

Periodic timers are broken, because the also only fire once.
As it happens, Linux doesn't care because it only sets the
timer to periodic very briefly during boot, and then switches
it only between one-shot and off later.
Nevertheless, fix the logic (we shouldn't even be looking at
time_travel_timer_expiry unless the timer is enabled) and
change the code to fire the timer periodically in periodic
mode, in case it ever gets used in the future.

Unfortunately, my build fix for when time travel mode isn't
enabled broke time travel mode, because I forgot that we need
to use the timer time after the timer has been marked disabled,
and thus need to leave the time stored instead of zeroing it.
Fix that by splitting the inline into two, so we can call only
the _mode() one in the relevant code path.

Sometimes it can be useful to run with "time travel" inside the
UML instance, for example for testing. For example, some tests
for the wireless subsystem and userspace are based on hwsim, a
virtual wireless adapter. Some tests can take a long time to
run because they e.g. wait for 120 seconds to elapse for some
regulatory checks. This obviously goes faster if it need not
actually wait that long, but time inside the test environment
just "bumps up" when there's nothing to do.
Add CONFIG_UML_TIME_TRAVEL_SUPPORT to enable code to support
such modes at runtime, selected on the command line:
* just "time-travel", in which time inside the UML instance
can move faster than real time, if there's nothing to do
* "time-travel=inf-cpu" in which time also moves slower and
any CPU processing takes no time at all, which allows to
implement consistent behaviour regardless of host CPU load
(or speed) or debug overhead.
An additional "time-travel-start=<seconds>" parameter is also
supported in this case to start the wall clock at this time
(in unix epoch).
With this enabled, the test mentioned above goes from a runtime
of about 140 seconds (with startup overhead and all) to being
CPU bound and finishing in 15 seconds (on my slow laptop).

In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Make the uml arch's clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
driver.

UML is using an obsolete itimer call for
all timers and "polls" for kernel space timer firing
in its userspace portion resulting in a long list
of bugs and incorrect behaviour(s). It also uses
ITIMER_VIRTUAL for its timer which results in the
timer being dependent on it running and the cpu
load.
This patch fixes this by moving to posix high resolution
timers firing off CLOCK_MONOTONIC and relaying the timer
correctly to the UML userspace.
Fixes:
- crashes when hosts suspends/resumes
- broken userspace timers - effecive ~40Hz instead
of what they should be. Note - this modifies skas behavior
by no longer setting an itimer per clone(). Timer events
are relayed instead.
- kernel network packet scheduling disciplines
- tcp behaviour especially under load
- various timer related corner cases
Finally, overall responsiveness of userspace is better.

UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP
decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down.
Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond
multiplier, which is 1. Decrementing that gives you 0 and time is
stopped.
This is fixed by switching to a microsecond clock, with a multiplier
of 1000.

This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of
CHOOSE_MODE. There were lots of functions that looked like
int foo(args){

}
The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and
sometimes entire header files) are deleted.
In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas
register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being
removed.
It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing
the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time
branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code.
This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all
CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch. This leaves a number of trivial
functions which will be dealt with in a later patch.
