* nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimersFrederic Weisbecker2017-01-112-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the tick is stopped and an interrupt occurs afterward, we check on that interrupt exit if the next tick needs to be rescheduled. If it doesn't need any update, we don't want to do anything. In order to check if the tick needs an update, we compare it against the clockevent device deadline. Now that's a problem because the clockevent device is at a lower level than the tick itself if it is implemented on top of hrtimer. Every hrtimer share this clockevent device. So comparing the next tick deadline against the clockevent device deadline is wrong because the device may be programmed for another hrtimer whose deadline collides with the tick. As a result we may end up not reprogramming the tick accidentally. In a worst case scenario under full dynticks mode, the tick stops firing as it is supposed to every 1hz, leaving /proc/stat stalled: Task in a full dynticks CPU ---------------------------- * hrtimer A is queued 2 seconds ahead * the tick is stopped, scheduled 1 second ahead * tick fires 1 second later * on tick exit, nohz schedules the tick 1 second ahead but sees the clockevent device is already programmed to that deadline, fooled by hrtimer A, the tick isn't rescheduled. * hrtimer A is cancelled before its deadline * tick never fires again until an interrupt happens... In order to fix this, store the next tick deadline to the tick_sched local structure and reuse that value later to check whether we need to reprogram the clock after an interrupt. On the other hand, ts->sleep_length still wants to know about the next clock event and not just the tick, so we want to improve the related comment to avoid confusion.

* ktime: Cleanup ktime_set() usageThomas Gleixner2016-12-254-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

* ktime: Get rid of the unionThomas Gleixner2016-12-2511-83/+83
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The clocksource delta to nanoseconds conversion is using signed math, but the delta is unsigned. This makes the conversion space smaller than necessary and in case of a multiplication overflow the conversion can become negative. The conversion is done with scaled math: s64 nsec_delta = ((s64)clkdelta * clk->mult) >> clk->shift; Shifting a signed integer right obvioulsy preserves the sign, which has interesting consequences: - Time jumps backwards - __iter_div_u64_rem() which is used in one of the calling code pathes will take forever to piecewise calculate the seconds/nanoseconds part. This has been reported by several people with different scenarios: David observed that when stopping a VM with a debugger: "It was essentially the stopped by debugger case. I forget exactly why, but the guest was being explicitly stopped from outside, it wasn't just scheduling lag. I think it was something in the vicinity of 10 minutes stopped." When lifting the stop the machine went dead. The stopped by debugger case is not really interesting, but nevertheless it would be a good thing not to die completely. But this was also observed on a live system by Liav: "When the OS is too overloaded, delta will get a high enough value for the msb of the sum delta * tkr->mult + tkr->xtime_nsec to be set, and so after the shift the nsec variable will gain a value similar to 0xffffffffff000000." Unfortunately this has been reintroduced recently with commit 6bd58f09e1d8 ("time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation"). It had been fixed a year ago already in commit 35a4933a8959 ("time: Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_get_ns()"). Though it's not surprising that the issue has been reintroduced because the function itself and the whole call chain uses s64 for the result and the propagation of it. The change in this recent commit is subtle: s64 nsec; - nsec = (d * m + n) >> s: + nsec = d * m + n; + nsec >>= s; d being type of cycle_t adds another level of obfuscation. This wouldn't have happened if the previous change to unsigned computation would have made the 'nsec' variable u64 right away and a follow up patch had cleaned up the whole call chain. There have been patches submitted which basically did a revert of the above patch leaving everything else unchanged as signed. Back to square one. This spawned a admittedly pointless discussion about potential users which rely on the unsigned behaviour until someone pointed out that it had been fixed before. The changelogs of said patches added further confusion as they made finally false claims about the consequences for eventual users which expect signed results. Despite delta being cycle_t, aka. u64, it's very well possible to hand in a signed negative value and the signed computation will happily return the correct result. But nobody actually sat down and analyzed the code which was added as user after the propably unintended signed conversion. Though in sensitive code like this it's better to analyze it proper and make sure that nothing relies on this than hunting the subtle wreckage half a year later. After analyzing all call chains it stands that no caller can hand in a negative value (which actually would work due to the s64 cast) and rely on the signed math to do the right thing. Change the conversion function to unsigned math. The conversion of all call chains is done in a follow up patch. This solves the starvation issue, which was caused by the negative result, but it does not solve the underlying problem. It merily procrastinates it. When the timekeeper update is deferred long enough that the unsigned multiplication overflows, then time going backwards is observable again. It does neither solve the issue of clocksources with a small counter width which will wrap around possibly several times and cause random time stamps to be generated. But those are usually not found on systems used for virtualization, so this is likely a non issue. I took the liberty to claim authorship for this simply because analyzing all callsites and writing the changelog took substantially more time than just making the simple s/s64/u64/ change and ignore the rest.

To keep it NMI safe since we're accessing from tracing, we're not using a separate timekeeper with updates to monotonic clock and boot offset protected with seqlocks. This has the following minor side effects: (1) Its possible that a timestamp be taken after the boot offset is updated but before the timekeeper is updated. If this happens, the new boot offset is added to the old timekeeping making the clock appear to update slightly earlier: CPU 0 CPU 1 timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() __timekeeping_inject_sleeptime(tk, delta); timestamp(); timekeeping_update(tk, TK_CLEAR_NTP...); (2) On 32-bit systems, the 64-bit boot offset (tk->offs_boot) may be partially updated. Since the tk->offs_boot update is a rare event, this should be a rare occurrence which postprocessing should be able to handle.

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.

| * timers: Fix usleep_range() in the context of wake_up_process()Douglas Anderson2016-10-261-12/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Users of usleep_range() expect that it will _never_ return in less time than the minimum passed parameter. However, nothing in the code ensures this, when the sleeping task is woken by wake_up_process() or any other mechanism which can wake a task from uninterruptible state. Neither usleep_range() nor schedule_hrtimeout_range*() have any protection against wakeups. schedule_hrtimeout_range*() is designed this way despite the fact that the API documentation does not mention it. msleep() already has code to handle this case since it will loop as long as there was still time left. usleep_range() has no such loop, add it. Presumably this problem was not detected before because usleep_range() is only used in a few places and the function is mostly used in contexts which are not exposed to wakeups of any form. An effort was made to look for users relying on the old behavior by looking for usleep_range() in the same file as wake_up_process(). No problems were found by this search, though it is conceivable that someone could have put the sleep and wakeup in two different files. An effort was made to ask several upstream maintainers if they were aware of people relying on wake_up_process() to wake up usleep_range(). No maintainers were aware of that but they were aware of many people relying on usleep_range() never returning before the minimum.

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CPSW CPTS driver is capable of doing timestamping on tx/rx packets and requires to know mult and shift factors for timestamp conversion from raw value to nanoseconds (ptp clock). Now these mult and shift factors are calculated manually and provided through DT, which makes very hard to support of a lot number of platforms, especially if CPTS refclk is not the same for some kind of boards and depends on efuse settings (Keystone 2 platforms). Hence, export clocks_calc_mult_shift() to allow drivers like CPSW CPTS (and other ptp drivesr) to benefit from automaitc calculation of mult and shift factors.

This mechanism has two issues: 1) Forwarding a remote base unlocked The forwarding function is called from get_target_base() with the current timer base lock held. But if the new target base is a different base than the current base (can happen with NOHZ, sigh!) then the forwarding is done on an unlocked base. This can lead to corruption of base->clk. Solution is simple: Invoke the forwarding after the target base is locked. 2) Possible corruption due to jiffies advancing This is similar to the issue in get_net_timer_interrupt() which was fixed in the previous patch. jiffies can advance between check and assignement and therefore advancing base->clk beyond the next expiry value. So we need to read jiffies into a local variable once and do the checks and assignment with the local copy.

This is caused by a bug in the base clock forwarding mechanism, which leads to timers expiring early. The scenario which leads to this is: run_timers() while (jiffies >= base->clk) { collect_expired_timers(); base->clk++; expire_timers(); } So base->clk = jiffies + 1. Now the cpu goes idle: idle() get_next_timer_interrupt() nextevt = __next_time_interrupt(); if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk)) base->clk = jiffies; jiffies has not advanced since run_timers(), so this assignment effectively decrements base->clk by one. base->clk is the index into the timer wheel arrays. So let's assume the following state after the base->clk increment in run_timers(): jiffies = 0 base->clk = 1 A timer gets enqueued with an expiry delta of 63 ticks (which is the case with the USB timeout and HZ=250) so the resulting bucket index is: base->clk + delta = 1 + 63 = 64 The timer goes into the first wheel level. The array size is 64 so it ends up in bucket 0, which is correct as it takes 63 ticks to advance base->clk to index into bucket 0 again. If the cpu goes idle before jiffies advance, then the bug in the forwarding mechanism sets base->clk back to 0, so the next invocation of run_timers() at the next tick will index into bucket 0 and therefore expire the timer 62 ticks too early. Instead of blindly setting base->clk to jiffies we must make the forwarding conditional on jiffies > base->clk, but we cannot use jiffies for this as we might run into the following issue: if (time_after(jiffies, base->clk) { if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk)) base->clk = jiffies; jiffies can increment between the check and the assigment far enough to advance beyond nextevt. So we need to use a stable value for checking. get_next_timer_interrupt() has the basej argument which is the jiffies value snapshot taken in the calling code. So we can just that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linus stumbled over the unlocked modification of the timer expiry value in mod_timer() which is an optimization for timers which stay in the same bucket - due to the bucket granularity - despite their expiry time getting updated. The optimization itself still makes sense even if we take the lock, because in case that the bucket stays the same, we avoid the pointless queue/enqueue dance. Make the check and the modification of timer->expires protected by the base lock and shuffle the remaining code around so we can keep the lock held when we actually have to requeue the timer to a different bucket.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | can_stop_full_tick() has no check for offline cpus. So it allows to stop the tick on an offline cpu from the interrupt return path, which is wrong and subsequently makes irq_work_needs_cpu() warn about being called for an offline cpu. Commit f7ea0fd639c2c4 ("tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if the cpu is offline") added prevention for can_stop_idle_tick(), but forgot to do the same in can_stop_full_tick(). Add it.

Note that this is not currently a huge concern since the kernel should be built with -fno-strict-overflow by default, but could be a problem in the future, a problem with older compilers, or other compilers than gcc. The easiest way to avoid the overflow is to cast one of the arguments to unsigned (so the addition will be done using unsigned arithmetic).

However, when using an override, the clocksource_select logic will clear the override value if the clocksource is not marked VALID_FOR_HRES during that inititial check. When using the boot arguments clocksource=<foo>, this selection can run before the watchdog, and can cause the override to be incorrectly cleared. To address this condition, the override_name is only invalidated for unstable clocksources. Otherwise, the override is left intact until after the watchdog has validated the clocksource as stable/unstable.

* timekeeping: Cap array access in timekeeping_debugJohn Stultz2016-08-241-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was reported that hibernation could fail on the 2nd attempt, where the system hangs at hibernate() -> syscore_resume() -> i8237A_resume() -> claim_dma_lock(), because the lock has already been taken. However there is actually no other process would like to grab this lock on that problematic platform. Further investigation showed that the problem is triggered by setting /sys/power/pm_trace to 1 before the 1st hibernation. Since once pm_trace is enabled, the rtc becomes unmeaningful after suspend, and meanwhile some BIOSes would like to adjust the 'invalid' RTC (e.g, smaller than 1970) to the release date of that motherboard during POST stage, thus after resumed, it may seem that the system had a significant long sleep time which is a completely meaningless value. Then in timekeeping_resume -> tk_debug_account_sleep_time, if the bit31 of the sleep time happened to be set to 1, fls() returns 32 and we add 1 to sleep_time_bin[32], which causes an out of bounds array access and therefor memory being overwritten. As depicted by System.map: 0xffffffff81c9d080 b sleep_time_bin 0xffffffff81c9d100 B dma_spin_lock the dma_spin_lock.val is set to 1, which caused this problem. This patch adds a sanity check in tk_debug_account_sleep_time() to ensure we don't index past the sleep_time_bin array.

* timekeeping: Avoid taking lock in NMI path with CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPINGJohn Stultz2016-08-241-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I added some extra sanity checking in timekeeping_get_ns() under CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING, I missed that the NMI safe __ktime_get_fast_ns() method was using timekeeping_get_ns(). Thus the locking added to the debug checks broke the NMI-safety of __ktime_get_fast_ns(). This patch open-codes the timekeeping_get_ns() logic for __ktime_get_fast_ns(), so can avoid any deadlocks in NMI.

* timers: Fix get_next_timer_interrupt() computationChris Metcalf2016-08-091-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() routine is not properly canceling the sched timer when nothing is pending, because get_next_timer_interrupt() is no longer returning KTIME_MAX in that case. This causes periodic interrupts when none are needed. When determining the next interrupt time, we first use __next_timer_interrupt() to get the first expiring timer in the timer wheel. If no timer is found, we return the base clock value plus NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA to indicate there is no timer in the timer wheel. Back in get_next_timer_interrupt(), we set the "expires" value by converting the timer wheel expiry (in ticks) to a nsec value. But we don't want to do this if the timer wheel expiry value indicates no timer; we want to return KTIME_MAX. Prior to commit 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel") we checked base->active_timers to see if any timers were active, and if not, we didn't touch the expiry value and so properly returned KTIME_MAX. Now we don't have active_timers. To fix this, we now just check the timer wheel expiry value to see if it is "now + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA", and if it is, we don't try to compute a new value based on it, but instead simply let the KTIME_MAX value in expires remain.

That's the first major change of the wheel in almost 20 years since Finn implemted it. - A large overhaul of the clocksource drivers init functions to consolidate the Device Tree initialization - Some more Y2038 updates - A capability fix for timerfd - Yet another clock chip driver - The usual pile of updates, comment improvements all over the place" * 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (130 commits) tick/nohz: Optimize nohz idle enter clockevents: Make clockevents_subsys static clocksource/drivers/time-armada-370-xp: Fix return value check timers: Implement optimization for same expiry time in mod_timer() timers: Split out index calculation timers: Only wake softirq if necessary timers: Forward the wheel clock whenever possible timers/nohz: Remove pointless tick_nohz_kick_tick() function timers: Optimize collect_expired_timers() for NOHZ timers: Move __run_timers() function timers: Remove set_timer_slack() leftovers timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel timers: Reduce the CPU index space to 256k timers: Give a few structs and members proper names hlist: Add hlist_is_singular_node() helper signals: Use hrtimer for sigtimedwait() timers: Remove the deprecated mod_timer_pinned() API timers, net/ipv4/inet: Initialize connection request timers as pinned timers, drivers/tty/mips_ejtag: Initialize the poll timer as pinned timers, drivers/tty/metag_da: Initialize the poll timer as pinned ...
| * | tick/nohz: Optimize nohz idle enterGaurav Jindal2016-07-191-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tick_nohz_start_idle is called before checking whether the idle tick can be stopped. If the tick cannot be stopped, calling tick_nohz_start_idle() is pointless and just wasting CPU cycles. Only invoke tick_nohz_start_idle() when can_stop_idle_tick() returns true. A short one minute observation of the effect on ARM64 shows a reduction of calls by 1.5% thus optimizing the idle entry sequence.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The clockevents_subsys struct is used for sysfs support and is not declared or used outside the file it is defined in. Fix the following warning by making it static: kernel/time/clockevents.c:648:17: warning: symbol 'clockevents_subsys' was not declared. Should it be static?
