* tick/nohz: Set the correct expiry when switching to nohz/lowres modeWanpeng Li2016-03-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 1ca8ec532fc2d986f1f4a319857bb18e0c9739b4 upstream. commit 0ff53d096422 sets the next tick interrupt to the last jiffies update, i.e. in the past, because the forward operation is invoked before the set operation. There is no resulting damage (yet), but we get an extra pointless tick interrupt. Revert the order so we get the next tick interrupt in the future.

* time: Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_get_ns()David Gibson2016-03-031-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 35a4933a895927990772ae96fdcfd2f806929ee2 upstream. 1e75fa8 "time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec" replaced a call to clocksource_cyc2ns() from timekeeping_get_ns() with an open-coded version of the same logic to avoid keeping a semi-redundant struct timespec in struct timekeeper. However, the commit also introduced a subtle semantic change - where clocksource_cyc2ns() uses purely unsigned math, the new version introduces a signed temporary, meaning that if (delta * tk->mult) has a 63-bit overflow the following shift will still give a negative result. The choice of 'maxsec' in __clocksource_updatefreq_scale() means this will generally happen if there's a ~10 minute pause in examining the clocksource. This can be triggered on a powerpc KVM guest by stopping it from qemu for a bit over 10 minutes. After resuming time has jumped backwards several minutes causing numerous problems (jiffies does not advance, msleep()s can be extended by minutes..). It doesn't happen on x86 KVM guests, because the guest TSC is effectively frozen while the guest is stopped, which is not the case for the powerpc timebase. Obviously an unsigned (64 bit) overflow will only take twice as long as a signed, 63-bit overflow. I don't know the time code well enough to know if that will still cause incorrect calculations, or if a 64-bit overflow is avoided elsewhere. Still, an incorrect forwards clock adjustment will cause less trouble than time going backwards. So, this patch removes the potential for intermediate signed overflow.

* posix-clock: Fix return code on the poll method's error pathRichard Cochran2016-03-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 1b9f23727abb92c5e58f139e7d180befcaa06fe0 upstream. The posix_clock_poll function is supposed to return a bit mask of POLLxxx values. However, in case the hardware has disappeared (due to hot plugging for example) this code returns -ENODEV in a futile attempt to throw an error at the file descriptor level. The kernel's file_operations interface does not accept such error codes from the poll method. Instead, this function aught to return POLLERR. The value -ENODEV does, in fact, contain the POLLERR bit (and almost all the other POLLxxx bits as well), but only by chance. This patch fixes code to return a proper bit mask. Credit goes to Markus Elfring for pointing out the suspicious signed/unsigned mismatch.

* hrtimer: Handle remaining time proper for TIME_LOW_RESThomas Gleixner2016-02-172-19/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 203cbf77de59fc8f13502dcfd11350c6d4a5c95f upstream. 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.

This changes the caller and the implementation to work on timespec64 types rather than timespec, to avoid the time_t overflow on 32-bit architectures. For consistency with the other new functions (ktime_get_seconds, ktime_get_real_*, ...), I'm renaming the function to ktime_get_raw_and_real_ts64. We still need to convert from the internal 64-bit type to 32 bit types in the caller, but this conversion is now pushed out from getnstime_raw_and_real to pps_get_ts. A follow-up patch changes the remaining pps code to completely avoid the conversion. Acked-by: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Acked-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is only one user of the hardpps function in the kernel, so it makes sense to atomically change it over to using 64-bit timestamps for y2038 safety. In the hardpps implementation, we also need to change the pps_normtime structure, which is similar to struct timespec and also requires a 64-bit seconds portion. This introduces two temporary variables in pps_kc_event() to do the conversion, they will be removed again in the next step, which seemed preferable to having a larger patch changing it all at the same time.

The issue was that whenever an itimer expired, many threads ended up simultaneously trying to send the signal. Most of the time, nothing happened after acquiring the sighand lock because another thread had just already sent the signal and updated the "next expire" time. The fastpath_timer_check() didn't help much since the "next expire" time was updated after the threads exit fastpath_timer_check(). This patch addresses this by having the thread_group_cputimer structure maintain a boolean to signify when a thread in the group is already checking for process wide timers, and adds extra logic in the fastpath to check the boolean.

Unfortunately, the logic in timekeeping_freqadjust(), introduced in commit: dc491596f639 ("timekeeping: Rework frequency adjustments to work better w/ nohz") used the abs() function with a s64 error value to calculate the size of the approximated adjustment to be made. Per include/linux/kernel.h: "abs() should not be used for 64-bit types (s64, u64, long long) - use abs64()". Thus on 32-bit platforms, this resulted in the clocksteering to take a quite dampended random walk trying to converge on the proper frequency, which caused the adjustments to be made much slower then intended (most easily observed when large adjustments are made). This patch fixes the issue by using abs64() instead.

Issue 1:exportfs -a generate: "exportfs: /opt/nfs/arm does not support NFS export" Issue 2:cat /proc/stat: "btime 4294967236" The same issues can be reproduced on x86 after running the following code: int main(void) { struct timeval val; int ret; val.tv_sec = 0; val.tv_usec = 0; ret = settimeofday(&val, NULL); return 0; } Two issues are different symptoms of same problem: The reason is a positive wall_to_monotonic pushes boot time back to the time before Epoch, and getboottime will return negative value. In symptom 1: negative boot time cause get_expiry() to overflow time_t when input expire time is 2147483647, then cache_flush() always clears entries just added in ip_map_parse. In symptom 2: show_stat() uses "unsigned long" to print negative btime value returned by getboottime. This patch fix the problem by prohibiting time from being set to a value which would cause a negative boot time. As a result one can't set the CLOCK_REALTIME time prior to (1970 + system uptime).

This optimization assumes that: 1. current_kernel_time().tv_nsec is already rounded to TICK_NSEC (i.e. with HZ=1000 you'd get 1000000, 2000000, 3000000... but never 1000001). This is no longer true (probably since hrtimers introduced in 2.6.16). 2. TICK_NSEC is evenly divisible by all possible granularities. This may be true for HZ=100, 250, 1000, but obviously not for HZ=300 / TICK_NSEC=3333333 (introduced in 2.6.20). Thus, sub-second portions of in-core file times are not rounded to on-disk granularity. I.e. file times may change when the inode is re-read from disk or when the file system is remounted. This affects all file systems with file time granularities > 1 ns and < 1s, e.g. CEPH (1000 ns), UDF (1000 ns), CIFS (100 ns), NTFS (100 ns) and FUSE (configurable from user mode via struct fuse_init_out.time_gran). Steps to reproduce with e.g. UDF: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=udfdisk count=10000 && mkudffs udfdisk $ mkdir udf && mount udfdisk udf $ touch udf/test && stat -c %y udf/test 2015-06-09 10:22:56.130006767 +0200 $ umount udf && mount udfdisk udf $ stat -c %y udf/test 2015-06-09 10:22:56.130006000 +0200 Remounting truncates the mtime to 1 µs. Fix the rounding in timespec_trunc() and update the documentation. timespec_trunc() is exclusively used to calculate inode's [acm]time (mostly via current_fs_time()), and always with super_block.s_time_gran as second argument. So this can safely be changed without side effects. Note: This does _not_ fix the issue for FAT's 2 second mtime resolution, as super_block.s_time_gran isn't prepared to handle different ctime / mtime / atime resolutions nor resolutions > 1 second.

This is because its printing the delta between CLOCK_MONOTONIC time to the CLOCK_REALTIME expiration.

Now nohz integrates well full and idle and such hack have become needless. - Restart nohz full tick from irq exit. (A simplification and a preparation for future optimization on scheduler kick to nohz full) - Code cleanups. - Tile driver isolation enhancement on top of nohz.

It makes nohz full more flexible, simplify the related IPIs and doesn't bring significant overhead on irq exit. In a longer term view, it will allow us to piggyback the nohz kick on the scheduler IPI in the future instead of sending a dedicated IPI that often doubles the scheduler IPI on task wakeup. This will require more changes though including careful review of resched_curr() callers to include nohz full needs.

This is why we prevented such thing to happen. Nowadays full dynticks and idle dynticks are better integrated and interact without known issue. So lets remove that.
