Reason: Update to upstream changes to avoid further conflicts.
Fixup a trivial merge conflict in kernel/time/tick-sched.c

In commit 6b43ae8a619d17c4935c3320d2ef9e92bdeed05d, I
introduced a bug that kept the STA_INS or STA_DEL bit
from being cleared from time_status via adjtimex()
without forcing STA_PLL first.
Usually once the STA_INS is set, it isn't cleared
until the leap second is applied, so its unlikely this
affected anyone. However during testing I noticed it
took some effort to cancel a leap second once STA_INS
was set.

The RCU fix is a revert for an optimization that could cause deadlocks.

are not covered yet) - the resulting additional fixes are still WIP and

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().

We need to update the hrtimer clock offsets from the hrtimer interrupt
context. To avoid conversions from timespec to ktime_t maintain a
ktime_t based representation of those offsets in the timekeeper. This
puts the conversion overhead into the code which updates the
underlying offsets and provides fast accessible values in the hrtimer
interrupt.

The timekeeping code misses an update of the hrtimer subsystem after a
leap second happened. Due to that timers based on CLOCK_REALTIME are
either expiring a second early or late depending on whether a leap
second has been inserted or deleted until an operation is initiated
which causes that update. Unless the update happens by some other
means this discrepancy between the timekeeping and the hrtimer data
stays forever and timers are expired either early or late.
The reported immediate workaround - $ data -s "`date`" - is causing a
call to clock_was_set() which updates the hrtimer data structures.
See: http://www.sheeri.com/content/mysql-and-leap-second-high-cpu-and-fix
Add the missing clock_was_set() call to update_wall_time() in case of
a leap second event. The actual update is deferred to softirq context
as the necessary smp function call cannot be invoked from hard
interrupt context.

Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code:
- If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a
negative bias because we can negate our own sample.
- If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias
because we push the sample to a known active period.
So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding
copious documentation to the code.

If the nohz= boot parameter disables nohz, then RCU_FAST_NO_HZ needs to
also disable itself. This commit therefore checks for tick_nohz_enabled
being zero, disabling rcu_prepare_for_idle() if so. This commit assumes
that tick_nohz_enabled can change at runtime: If this is not the case,
then a simpler approach suffices.

Since we want to prepare for making the nohz API to work further
the idle case, we need to pull ts->idle_calls incrementation up to
the callers in idle.
To perform this, we split tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in two parts:
a first one that checks if we can really stop the tick for idle,
and another that actually stops it. Then from the callers in idle,
we check if we can stop the tick and only then we increment idle_calls
and finally relay to the nohz API that won't care about these details
anymore.

Now that idle and nohz logics are going to be independant each others,
ts->idle_tick becomes too much a biased name to describe the field that
saves the last scheduled tick on top of which we re-calculate the next
tick to schedule when the timer is restarted.
We want to reuse this even to stop the tick outside idle cases. So let's
rename it to some more generic name: ts->last_tick.
This changes a bit the timer list stat export so we need to increase its
version.

When the timer tick fires, it accounts the new jiffy as either part
of system, user or idle time. This is how we record the cputime
statistics.
But when the tick is stopped from the idle task, we still need
to record the number of jiffies spent tickless until we restart
the tick and fall back to traditional tick-based cputime accounting.
To do this, we take a snapshot of jiffies when the tick is stopped
and compute the difference against the new value of jiffies when
the tick is restarted. Then we account this whole difference to
the idle cputime.
However we are preparing to be able to stop the tick from other places
than idle. So this idle time accounting needs to be performed from
the callers of nohz APIs, not from the nohz APIs themselves because
we now want them to be agnostic against places that stop/restart tick.
Therefore, we pull the tickless idle time accounting out of generic
nohz helpers up to idle entry/exit callers.

As we plan to be able to stop the tick outside the idle task, we
need to prepare for separating nohz logic from idle. As a start,
this pulls the idle sleeping time accounting out of the tick
stop/restart API to the callers on idle entry/exit.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/urgent
Merge RCU fixes from Paul E. McKenney:
" This series has four patches, the major point of which is to eliminate
some slowdowns (including boot-time slowdowns) resulting from some
RCU_FAST_NO_HZ changes. The issue with the changes is that posting timers
from the idle loop has no effect if the CPU has entered dyntick-idle
mode because the CPU has already computed its wakeup time, and posting
a timer does not cause it to be recomputed. The short-term fix is for
RCU to precompute the timeout value so that the CPU's calculation is
correct. "

Pull leap second timer fix from Thomas Gleixner.
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
timekeeping: Fix CLOCK_MONOTONIC inconsistency during leapsecond
|
|
When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.
This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.
This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

Follow up on commit 556061b00 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[]
calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the
mostly idle case.
Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[]
array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load
balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of
idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit.
So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any
accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from
nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing
a jiffy, but that has always been the case.

Let the user decide whether power consumption or jitter is the
more important consideration for their machines.
Quoting removal commit af5ab277ded04bd9bc6b048c5a2f0e7d70ef0867:
"Historically, Linux has tried to make the regular timer tick on the
various CPUs not happen at the same time, to avoid contention on
xtime_lock.
Nowadays, with the tickless kernel, this contention no longer happens
since time keeping and updating are done differently. In addition,
this skew is actually hurting power consumption in a measurable way on
many-core systems."
Problems:
- Contrary to the above, systems do encounter contention on both
xtime_lock and RCU structure locks when the tick is synchronized.
- Moderate sized RT systems suffer intolerable jitter due to the tick
being synchronized.
- SGI reports the same for their large systems.
- Fully utilized systems reap no power saving benefit from skew removal,
but do suffer from resulting induced lock contention.
- 0209f649 rcu: limit rcu_node leaf-level fanout
This patch was born to combat lock contention which testing showed
to have been _induced by_ skew removal. Skew the tick, contention
disappeared virtually completely.

Sigh, I missed to check which architecture Kconfig files actually
include the core Kconfig file. There are a few which did not. So we
broke them.
Instead of adding the includes to those, we are better off to move the
include to init/Kconfig like we did already with irqs and others.
This does not change anything for the architectures using the old
style periodic timer mode. It just solves the build wreckage there.
For those architectures which use the clock events infrastructure it
moves the include of the core Kconfig file to "General setup" which is
a way more logical place than having it at random locations specified
by the architecture specific Kconfigs.

During resume, tick_resume_broadcast() programs the broadcast timer in
oneshot mode unconditionally. On the platforms where broadcast timer
is not really required, this will generate spurious broadcast timer
ticks upon resume. For example, on the always running apic timer
platforms with HPET, I see spurious hpet tick once every ~5minutes
(which is the 32-bit hpet counter wraparound time).
Similar to boot time, during resume make the oneshot mode setting of
the broadcast clock event device conditional on the state of active
broadcast users.

Santosh found another trap when we avoid to initialize the broadcast
device in the switch_to_oneshot code. The broadcast device might be
still in SHUTDOWN state when we actually need to use it. That
obviously breaks, as set_next_event() is called on a shutdown
device. This did not break on x86, but Suresh analyzed it:
From the review, most likely on Sven's system we are force enabling
the hpet using the pci quirk's method very late. And in this case,
hpet_clockevent (which will be global_clock_event) handler can be
null, specifically as this platform might not be using deeper c-states
and using the reliable APIC timer.
Prior to commit 'fa4da365bc7772c', that handler will be set to
'tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast' when we switch the broadcast timer to
oneshot mode, even though we don't use it. Post commit
'fa4da365bc7772c', we stopped switching the broadcast mode to oneshot
as this is not really needed and his platform's global_clock_event's
handler will remain null. While on my SNB laptop, same is set to
'clockevents_handle_noop' because hpet gets enabled very early. (noop
handler on my platform set when the early enabled hpet timer gets
replaced by the lapic timer).
But the commit 'fa4da365bc7772c' tracked the broadcast timer mode in
the SW as oneshot, even though it didn't touch the HW timer. During
resume however, tick_resume_broadcast() saw the SW broadcast mode as
oneshot and actually programmed the broadcast device also into oneshot
mode. So this triggered the null pointer de-reference after the hpet
wraps around and depending on what the hpet counter is set to. On the
normal platforms where hpet gets enabled early we should be seeing a
spurious interrupt (in my SNB laptop I see one spurious interrupt
after around 5 minutes ;) which is 32-bit hpet counter wraparound
time), but that's a separate issue.
Enforce the mode setting when trying to set an event.

commit fa4da365b(clockevents: tTack broadcast device mode change in
tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot()) tried to fix a problem with the
broadcast device setup, which was introduced in commit 77b0d60c5(
clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not
needed).
The initial commit avoided to set up the broadcast device when no
broadcast request bits were set, but that left the broadcast device
disfunctional. In consequence deep idle states which need the
broadcast device were not woken up.
commit fa4da365b tried to fix that by initializing the state of the
broadcast facility, but that missed the fact, that nothing initializes
the event handler and some other state of the underlying clock event
device.
The fix is to revert both commits and make only the mode setting of
the clock event device conditional on the state of active broadcast
users.
That initializes everything except the low level device mode, but this
happens when the broadcast functionality is invoked by deep idle.

tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot()
In the commit 77b0d60c5adf39c74039e2142a1d3cd1e4d53799,
"clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not needed",
we were bailing out too quickly in tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot(),
with out tracking the broadcast device mode change to 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT'.
This breaks the platforms which need broadcast device oneshot services during
deep idle states. tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() thinks that it is
in periodic mode and fails to take proper decisions based on the
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_[ENTER, EXIT] notifications during deep
idle entry/exit.
Fix this by tracking the broadcast device mode as 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT',
before leaving the broadcast HW device in shutdown mode if there are no active
requests for the moment.

Fix tick_nohz_restart() to not use a stale ktime_t "now" value when
calling tick_do_update_jiffies64(now).
If we reach this point in the loop it means that we crossed a tick
boundary since we grabbed the "now" timestamp, so at this point "now"
refers to a time in the old jiffy, so using the old value for "now" is
incorrect, and is likely to give us a stale jiffies value.
In particular, the first time through the loop the
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) call is always a no-op, since the
caller, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), will have already called
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) with that "now" value.
Note that tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() already uses the correct
approach: when we notice we cross a jiffy boundary, grab a new
timestamp with ktime_get(), and *then* update jiffies.

This option has been selected from arch code as it was assumed that
it's necessary to support oneshot mode clockevent devices. But it's
just a core internal helper to compile tick-oneshot.c if NOHZ or
HIG_RES_TIMERS are selected.

Since commit 7dffa3c673fbcf835cd7be80bb4aec8ad3f51168 the ntp
subsystem has used an hrtimer for triggering the leapsecond
adjustment. However, this can cause a potential livelock.
Thomas diagnosed this as the following pattern:
CPU 0 CPU 1
do_adjtimex()
spin_lock_irq(&ntp_lock);
process_adjtimex_modes(); timer_interrupt()
process_adj_status(); do_timer()
ntp_start_leap_timer(); write_lock(&xtime_lock);
hrtimer_start(); update_wall_time();
hrtimer_reprogram(); ntp_tick_length()
tick_program_event() spin_lock(&ntp_lock);
clockevents_program_event()
ktime_get()
seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock);
This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using
an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond
processing in the second_overflow() function.
The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres
timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary,
(ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ) after the leap second instead of
possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic).
This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core.

change_clocksource() fails to grab locks or call timekeeping_update(),
which leaves a race window for time inconsistencies.
This adds proper locking and a call to timekeeping_update() to fix this.

'long secs' is passed as divisor to div_s64, which accepts a 32bit
divisor. On 64bit machines that value is trimmed back from 8 bytes
back to 4, causing a divide by zero when the number is bigger than
(1 << 32) - 1 and all 32 lower bits are 0.
Use div64_long() instead.
