random32.c has two random number generators in it: one that is meant to
be used deterministically, with some predefined seed, and one that does
the same exact thing as random.c, except does it poorly. The first one
has some use cases. The second one no longer does and can be replaced
with calls to random.c's proper random number generator.
The relatively recent siphash-based bad random32.c code was added in
response to concerns that the prior random32.c was too deterministic.
Out of fears that random.c was (at the time) too slow, this code was
anonymously contributed. Then out of that emerged a kind of shadow
entropy gathering system, with its own tentacles throughout various net
code, added willy nilly.
Stop👏making👏bespoke👏random👏number👏generators👏.
Fortunately, recent advances in random.c mean that we can stop playing
with this sketchiness, and just use get_random_u32(), which is now fast
enough. In micro benchmarks using RDPMC, I'm seeing the same median
cycle count between the two functions, with the mean being _slightly_
higher due to batches refilling (which we can optimize further need be).
However, when doing *real* benchmarks of the net functions that actually
use these random numbers, the mean cycles actually *decreased* slightly
(with the median still staying the same), likely because the additional
prandom code means icache misses and complexity, whereas random.c is
generally already being used by something else nearby.
The biggest benefit of this is that there are many users of prandom who
probably should be using cryptographically secure random numbers. This
makes all of those accidental cases become secure by just flipping a
switch. Later on, we can do a tree-wide cleanup to remove the static
inline wrapper functions that this commit adds.
There are also some low-ish hanging fruits for making this even faster
in the future: a get_random_u16() function for use in the networking
stack will give a 2x performance boost there, using SIMD for ChaCha20
will let us compute 4 or 8 or 16 blocks of output in parallel, instead
of just one, giving us large buffers for cheap, and introducing a
get_random_*_bh() function that assumes irqs are already disabled will
shave off a few cycles for ordinary calls. These are things we can chip
away at down the road.

With debugobjects enabled the timer hint for freeing of active timers
embedded inside delayed works is always the same, i.e. the hint is
delayed_work_timer_fn, even though the function the delayed work is going
to run can be wildly different depending on what work was queued. Enabling
workqueue debugobjects doesn't help either because the delayed work isn't
considered active until it is actually queued to run on a workqueue. If the
work is freed while the timer is pending the work isn't considered active
so there is no information from workqueue debugobjects.
Special case delayed works in the timer debugobjects hint logic so that the
delayed work function is returned instead of the delayed_work_timer_fn.
This will help to understand which delayed work was pending that got
freed.
Apply the same treatment for kthread_delayed_work because it follows the
same pattern.

The addition of random_get_entropy_fallback() provides access to
whichever time source has the highest frequency, which is useful for
gathering entropy on platforms without available cycle counters. It's
not necessarily as good as being able to quickly access a cycle counter
that the CPU has, but it's still something, even when it falls back to
being jiffies-based.
In the event that a given arch does not define get_cycles(), falling
back to the get_cycles() default implementation that returns 0 is really
not the best we can do. Instead, at least calling
random_get_entropy_fallback() would be preferable, because that always
needs to return _something_, even falling back to jiffies eventually.
It's not as though random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision
or guaranteed to be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all
the time is better than returning zero all the time.
Finally, since random_get_entropy_fallback() is used during extremely
early boot when randomizing freelists in mm_init(), it can be called
before timekeeping has been initialized. In that case there really is
nothing we can do; jiffies hasn't even started ticking yet. So just give
up and return 0.

The kernel uses kHz as the unit for clock rates reported between 1MHz
(inclusive) and 4MHz (exclusive), e.g.:
sched_clock: 64 bits at 1000kHz, resolution 1000ns, wraps every 2199023255500ns
This reduces the amount of data lost due to rounding, but hasn't been

When tick_nohz_stop_tick() stops the tick and high resolution timers are
disabled, then the clock event device is not put into ONESHOT_STOPPED
mode. This can lead to spurious timer interrupts with some clock event
device drivers that don't shut down entirely after firing.
Eliminate these by putting the device into ONESHOT_STOPPED mode at points
where it is not being reprogrammed. When there are no timers active, then
tick_program_event() with KTIME_MAX can be used to stop the device. When
there is a timer active, the device can be stopped at the next tick (any
new timer added by timers will reprogram the tick).

Merge tag 'tai-for-tracing' into timers/core
Pull in the NMI safe TAI accessor which was provided for the tracing tree
to prepare for further changes in this area.
Introduce fast/NMI safe accessor to clock tai for tracing. The Linux kernel
tracing infrastructure has support for using different clocks to generate
timestamps for trace events. Especially in TSN networks it's useful to have TAI
as trace clock, because the application scheduling is done in accordance to the
network time, which is based on TAI. With a tai trace_clock in place, it becomes
very convenient to correlate network activity with Linux kernel application
traces.
Use the same implementation as ktime_get_boot_fast_ns() does by reading the
monotonic time and adding the TAI offset. The same limitations as for the fast
boot implementation apply. The TAI offset may change at run time e.g., by
setting the time or using adjtimex() with an offset. However, these kind of
offset changes are rare events. Nevertheless, the user has to be aware and deal
with it in post processing.
An alternative approach would be to use the same implementation as
ktime_get_real_fast_ns() does. However, this requires to add an additional u64
member to the tk_read_base struct. This struct together with a seqcount is
designed to fit into a single cache line on 64 bit architectures. Adding a new
member would violate this constraint.

The tasklist_lock popped up as a scalability bottleneck on some testing
workloads. The readlocks in do_prlimit and set/getpriority are not
necessary in all cases.
Based on a cycles profile, it looked like ~87% of the time was spent in
the kernel, ~42% of which was just trying to get *some* spinlock
(queued_spin_lock_slowpath, not necessarily the tasklist_lock).
The big offenders (with rough percentages in cycles of the overall trace):

Pull tasklist_lock optimizations from Eric Biederman:
"prlimit and getpriority tasklist_lock optimizations
The tasklist_lock popped up as a scalability bottleneck on some
testing workloads. The readlocks in do_prlimit and set/getpriority are
not necessary in all cases.
Based on a cycles profile, it looked like ~87% of the time was spent
in the kernel, ~42% of which was just trying to get *some* spinlock
(queued_spin_lock_slowpath, not necessarily the tasklist_lock).
The big offenders (with rough percentages in cycles of the overall
trace):
- do_wait 11%
- setpriority 8% (done previously in commit 7f8ca0edfe)
- kill 8%
- do_exit 5%
- clone 3%
- prlimit64 2% (this patchset)
- getrlimit 1% (this patchset)

Unnecessarily grabbing the tasklist_lock can be a scalability bottleneck
for workloads that also must grab the tasklist_lock for waiting,
killing, and cloning.
The tasklist_lock was grabbed to protect tsk->sighand from disappearing
(becoming NULL). tsk->signal was already protected by holding a
reference to tsk.
update_rlimit_cpu() assumed tsk->sighand != NULL. With this commit, it
attempts to lock_task_sighand(). However, this means that
update_rlimit_cpu() can fail. This only happens when a task is exiting.
Note that during exec, sighand may *change*, but it will not be NULL.
Prior to this commit, the do_prlimit() ensured that update_rlimit_cpu()
would not fail by read locking the tasklist_lock and checking tsk->sighand
!= NULL.
If update_rlimit_cpu() fails, there may be other tasks that are not
exiting that share tsk->signal. However, the group_leader is the last
task to be released, so if we cannot update_rlimit_cpu(group_leader),
then the entire process is exiting.
The only other caller of update_rlimit_cpu() is
selinux_bprm_committing_creds(). It has tsk == current, so
update_rlimit_cpu() cannot fail (current->sighand cannot disappear
until current exits).
This change resulted in a 14% speedup on a microbenchmark where parents
kill and wait on their children, and children getpriority, setpriority,
and getrlimit.

RCU_SOFTIRQ used to be special in that it could be raised on purpose
within the idle path to prevent from stopping the tick. Some code still
prevents from unnecessary warnings related to this specific behaviour
while entering in dynticks-idle mode.
However the nohz layout has changed quite a bit in ten years, and the
removal of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ has been the final straw to this
safe-conduct. Now the RCU_SOFTIRQ vector is expected to be raised from
sane places.
A remaining corner case is admitted though when the vector is invoked
in fragile hotplug path.

On some rare cases, the timekeeper CPU may be delaying its jiffies
update duty for a while. Known causes include:
* The timekeeper is waiting on stop_machine in a MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ
or MULTI_STOP_RUN state. Disabled interrupts prevent from timekeeping
updates while waiting for the target CPU to complete its
stop_machine() callback.
* The timekeeper vcpu has VMEXIT'ed for a long while due to some overload
on the host.
Detect and fix these situations with emergency timekeeping catchups.

A watchdog maximum skew of 100us may still be too small for
some systems or archs. It may also be too small when some kernel
debug config options are enabled. So add a new Kconfig option
CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW_US to allow kernel builders to have more
control on the threshold for marking clocksource as unstable.

Even after commit e1d7ba8735 ("time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic
isn't positive") it is still possible to make wall_to_monotonic positive
by running the following code:
int main(void)
{
struct timespec time;
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &time);
time.tv_nsec = 0;
clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &time);
return 0;
}
The reason is that the second parameter of timespec64_compare(), ts_delta,
may be unnormalized because the delta is calculated with an open coded
substraction which causes the comparison of tv_sec to yield the wrong
result:
wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 }
ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -9, .tv_nsec = -900000000 }
That makes timespec64_compare() claim that wall_to_monotonic < ts_delta,
but actually the result should be wall_to_monotonic > ts_delta.
After normalization, the result of timespec64_compare() is correct because
the tv_sec comparison is not longer misleading:
wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 }
ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 100000000 }
Use timespec64_sub() to ensure that ts_delta is normalized, which fixes the
issue.

Patch series "mm/damon: Fix fake /proc/loadavg reports", v3.
This patchset fixes DAMON's fake load report issue. The first patch
makes yet another variant of usleep_range() for this fix, and the second
patch fixes the issue of DAMON by making it using the newly introduced
function.
This patch (of 2):
Some kernel threads such as DAMON could need to repeatedly sleep in
micro seconds level. Because usleep_range() sleeps in uninterruptible
state, however, such threads would make /proc/loadavg reports fake load.
To help such cases, this commit implements a variant of usleep_range()
called usleep_idle_range(). It is same to usleep_range() but sets the
state of the current task as TASK_IDLE while sleeping.

When at least one CPU runs in nohz_full mode, a dedicated timekeeper CPU
is guaranteed to stay online and to never stop its tick.
Meanwhile on some rare case, the dedicated timekeeper may be running
with interrupts disabled for a while, such as in stop_machine.
If jiffies stop being updated, a nohz_full CPU may end up endlessly
programming the next tick in the past, taking the last jiffies update
monotonic timestamp as a stale base, resulting in an tick storm.
Here is a scenario where it matters:
0) CPU 0 is the timekeeper and CPU 1 a nohz_full CPU.
1) A stop machine callback is queued to execute somewhere.
2) CPU 0 reaches MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ while CPU 1 is still in
MULTI_STOP_PREPARE. Hence CPU 0 can't do its timekeeping duty. CPU 1
can still take IRQs.
3) CPU 1 receives an IRQ which queues a timer callback one jiffy forward.
4) On IRQ exit, CPU 1 schedules the tick one jiffy forward, taking
last_jiffies_update as a base. But last_jiffies_update hasn't been
updated for 2 jiffies since the timekeeper has interrupts disabled.
5) clockevents_program_event(), which relies on ktime_get(), observes
that the expiration is in the past and therefore programs the min
delta event on the clock.
6) The tick fires immediately, goto 3)
7) Tick storm, the nohz_full CPU is drown and takes ages to reach
MULTI_STOP_DISABLE_IRQ, which is the only way out of this situation.
Solve this with unconditionally updating jiffies if the value is stale
on nohz_full IRQ entry. IRQs and other disturbances are expected to be
rare enough on nohz_full for the unconditional call to ktime_get() to
actually matter.

Now the total number of clocksource reads is increased to 4 per iteration.
In order to avoid increasing the clock skew check overhead, the default
maximum number of retries is reduced from 3 to 2 to maintain the same 12
clocksource reads in the worst case.

Since commit db3a34e174 ("clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays
detected") and commit 2e27e793e2 ("clocksource: Reduce clocksource-skew
threshold"), it is found that tsc clocksource fallback to hpet can
sometimes happen on both Intel and AMD systems especially when they are
running stressful benchmarking workloads. Of the 23 systems tested with
a v5.14 kernel, 10 of them have switched to hpet clock source during
the test run.
The result of falling back to hpet is a drastic reduction of performance
when running benchmarks. For example, the fio performance tests can
drop up to 70% whereas the iperf3 performance can drop up to 80%.
4 hpet fallbacks happened during bootup. They were:
[ 8.749399] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU13: hpet read-back delay of 263750ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
[ 12.044610] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU19: hpet read-back delay of 186166ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
[ 17.336941] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU28: hpet read-back delay of 182291ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
[ 17.518565] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU34: hpet read-back delay of 252196ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
Other fallbacks happen when the systems were running stressful
benchmarks. For example:
[ 2685.867873] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU117: hpet read-back delay of 57269ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
[46215.471228] clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU8: hpet read-back delay of 61460ns, attempt 4, marking unstable
Commit 2e27e793e2 ("clocksource: Reduce clocksource-skew threshold"),
changed the skew margin from 100us to 50us. I think this is too small
and can easily be exceeded when running some stressful workloads on a
thermally stressed system. So it is switched back to 100us.
Even a maximum skew margin of 100us may be too small in for some systems
when booting up especially if those systems are under thermal stress. To
eliminate the case that the large skew is due to the system being too
busy slowing down the reading of both the watchdog and the clocksource,
an extra consecutive read of watchdog clock is being done to check this.
The consecutive watchdog read delay is compared against
WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW/2. If the delay exceeds the limit, we assume that
the system is just too busy. A warning will be printed to the console
and the clock skew check is skipped for this round.

copy_process currently copies task_struct.posix_cputimers_work as-is. If a
timer interrupt arrives while handling clone and before dup_task_struct
completes then the child task will have:
1. posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2. posix_cputimers_work.work queued.
copy_process clears task_struct.task_works, so (2) will have no effect and
posix_cpu_timers_work will never run (not to mention it doesn't make sense
for two tasks to share a common linked list).
Since posix_cpu_timers_work never runs, posix_cputimers_work.scheduled is
never cleared. Since scheduled is set, future timer interrupts will skip
scheduling work, with the ultimate result that the task will never receive
timer expirations.
Together, the complete flow is:
1. Task 1 calls clone(), enters kernel.
2. Timer interrupt fires, schedules task work on Task 1.
2a. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2b. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.work added to
task_struct.task_works.
3. dup_task_struct() copies Task 1 to Task 2.
4. copy_process() clears task_struct.task_works for Task 2.
5. Future timer interrupts on Task 2 see
task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true and skip scheduling
work.
Fix this by explicitly clearing contents of task_struct.posix_cputimers_work
in copy_process(). This was never meant to be shared or inherited across
tasks in the first place.

Resetting/stopping an itimer eventually leads to it being reprogrammed
with an actual "0" value. As a result the itimer expires on the next
tick, triggering an unexpected signal.
To fix this, make sure that
struct signal_struct::it[CPUCLOCK_PROF/VIRT]::expires is set to 0 when
setitimer() passes a 0 it_value, indicating that the timer must stop.

A program may create multiple interval timers using timer_create(). For
each timer the kernel preallocates a "queued real-time signal",
Consequently, the number of timers is limited by the RLIMIT_SIGPENDING
resource limit. The allocated object is quite small, ~250 bytes, but even
the default signal limits allow to consume up to 100 megabytes per user.
It makes sense to account for them to limit the host's memory consumption
from inside the memcg-limited container.

The clocksource watchdog test sets a local JIFFIES_SHIFT macro and assumes
that HZ is >= 100. For smaller HZ values this shift value is too large and
causes undefined behaviour.
Move the HZ-based definitions of JIFFIES_SHIFT from kernel/time/jiffies.c
to kernel/time/tick-internal.h so the clocksource watchdog test can utilize
them, which makes it work correctly with all HZ values.

Since the recent consoliation of reprogramming functions,
hrtimer_force_reprogram() is affected by a check whether the new expiry
time is past the current expiry time.
This breaks the NOHZ logic as that relies on the fact that the tick hrtimer
is moved into the future. That means cpu_base->expires_next becomes stale
and subsequent reprogramming attempts fail as well until the situation is
cleaned up by an hrtimer interrupts.
For some yet unknown reason this leads to a complete stall, so for now
partially revert the offending commit to a known working state. The root
cause for the stall is still investigated and will be fixed in a subsequent
commit.

By unconditionally updating the offsets there are more indicators
whether the SMP function calls on clock_was_set() can be avoided:
- When the offset update already happened on the remote CPU then the
remote update attempt will yield the same seqeuence number and no
IPI is required.
- When the remote CPU is currently handling hrtimer_interrupt(). In
that case the remote CPU will reevaluate the timer bases before
reprogramming anyway, so nothing to do.
- After updating it can be checked whether the first expiring timer in
the affected clock bases moves before the first expiring (softirq)
timer of the CPU. If that's not the case then sending the IPI is not
required.

Setting of clocks triggers an unconditional SMP function call on all online
CPUs to reprogram the clock event device.
However, only some clocks have their offsets updated and therefore
potentially require a reprogram. That's CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_TAI and in
the case of resume (delayed sleep time injection) also CLOCK_BOOTTIME.
Instead of sending an IPI unconditionally, check each per CPU hrtimer base
whether it has active timers in the affected clock bases which are
indicated by the caller in the @bases argument of clock_was_set().
If that's not the case, skip the IPI and update the offsets remotely which
ensures that any subsequently armed timers on the affected clocks are
evaluated with the correct offsets.

clock_was_set() unconditionaly invokes retrigger_next_event() on all online
CPUs. This was necessary because that mechanism was also used for resume
from suspend to idle which is not longer the case.
The bases arguments allows the callers of clock_was_set() to hand in a mask
which tells clock_was_set() which of the hrtimer clock bases are affected
by the clock setting. This mask will be used in the next step to check
whether a CPU base has timers queued on a clock base affected by the event
and avoid the SMP function call if there are none.
Add a @bases argument, provide defines for the active bases masking and

Resuming timekeeping is a clock-was-set event and uses the clock-was-set
notification mechanism. This is in the way of making the clock-was-set
update for hrtimers selective so unnecessary IPIs are avoided when a CPU
base does not have timers queued which are affected by the clock setting.
Distangle it by invoking hrtimer_resume() on each unfreezing CPU and invoke
the new timerfd_resume() function from timekeeping_resume() which is the
only place where this is needed.
Rename hrtimer_resume() to hrtimer_resume_local() to reflect the change.
With this the clock_was_set*() functions are not longer required to IPI all
CPUs unconditionally and can get some smarts to avoid them.

When CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS is disabled, but NOHZ is enabled then
clock_was_set() is not doing anything. With HIGHRES=n the kernel relies on
the periodic tick to update the clock offsets, but when NOHZ is enabled and
active then CPUs which are in a deep idle sleep do not have a periodic tick
which means the expiry of timers affected by clock_was_set() can be
arbitrarily delayed up to the point where the CPUs are brought out of idle
again.
Make the clock_was_set() logic unconditionaly available so that idle CPUs
are kicked out of idle to handle the update.

If __hrtimer_start_range_ns() is invoked with an already armed hrtimer then
the timer has to be canceled first and then added back. If the timer is the
first expiring timer then on removal the clockevent device is reprogrammed
to the next expiring timer to avoid that the pending expiry fires needlessly.
If the new expiry time ends up to be the first expiry again then the clock
event device has to reprogrammed again.
Avoid this by checking whether the timer is the first to expire and in that
case, keep the timer on the current CPU and delay the reprogramming up to
the point where the timer has been enqueued again.

There are several scenarios that can result in posix_cpu_timer_set()
not queueing the timer but still leaving the threadgroup cputime counter
running or keeping the tick dependency around for a random amount of time.
1) If timer_settime() is called with a 0 expiration on a timer that is
already disabled, the process wide cputime counter will be started
and won't ever get a chance to be stopped by stop_process_timer()
since no timer is actually armed to be processed.
The following snippet is enough to trigger the issue.
void trigger_process_counter(void)
{
timer_t id;
struct itimerspec val = { };
timer_create(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
timer_settime(id, TIMER_ABSTIME, &val, NULL);
timer_delete(id);
}
2) If timer_settime() is called with a 0 expiration on a timer that is
already armed, the timer is dequeued but not really disarmed. So the
process wide cputime counter and the tick dependency may still remain
a while around.
The following code snippet keeps this overhead around for one week after
the timer deletion:
void trigger_process_counter(void)
{
timer_t id;
struct itimerspec val = { };
val.it_value.tv_sec = 604800;
timer_create(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
timer_settime(id, 0, &val, NULL);
timer_delete(id);
}
3) If the timer was initially deactivated, this call to timer_settime()
with an early expiration may have started the process wide cputime
counter even though the timer hasn't been queued and armed because it
has fired early and inline within posix_cpu_timer_set() itself. As a
result the process wide cputime counter may never stop until a new
timer is ever armed in the future.
The following code snippet can reproduce this:
void trigger_process_counter(void)
{
timer_t id;
struct itimerspec val = { };
signal(SIGALRM, SIG_IGN);
timer_create(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
val.it_value.tv_nsec = 1;
timer_settime(id, TIMER_ABSTIME, &val, NULL);
}
4) If the timer was initially armed with a former expiration value
before this call to timer_settime() and the current call sets an
early deadline that has already expired, the timer fires inline
within posix_cpu_timer_set(). In this case it must have been dequeued
before firing inline with its new expiration value, yet it hasn't
been disarmed in this case. So the process wide cputime counter and
the tick dependency may still be around for a while even after the
timer fired.
The following code snippet can reproduce this:
void trigger_process_counter(void)
{
timer_t id;
struct itimerspec val = { };
signal(SIGALRM, SIG_IGN);
timer_create(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
val.it_value.tv_sec = 100;
timer_settime(id, TIMER_ABSTIME, &val, NULL);
val.it_value.tv_sec = 0;
val.it_value.tv_nsec = 1;
timer_settime(id, TIMER_ABSTIME, &val, NULL);
}
Fix all these issues with triggering the related base next expiration
recalculation on the next tick. This also implies to re-evaluate the need
to keep around the process wide cputime counter and the tick dependency, in
a similar fashion to disarm_timer().

When an itimer deactivates a previously armed expiration, it simply doesn't
do anything. As a result the process wide cputime counter keeps running and
the tick dependency stays set until it reaches the old ghost expiration
value.
This can be reproduced with the following snippet:
void trigger_process_counter(void)
{
struct itimerval n = {};
n.it_value.tv_sec = 100;
setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL);
n.it_value.tv_sec = 0;
setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL);
}
Fix this with resetting the relevant base expiration. This is similar to
disarming a timer.

A timer deletion only dequeues the timer but it doesn't shutdown

The following code snippet keeps this overhead around for one week after

timer_t id;
struct itimerspec val = { };
val.it_value.tv_sec = 604800;
timer_create(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, NULL, &id);
timer_settime(id, 0, &val, NULL);
timer_delete(id);
}
Make sure the next target's tick recalculates the nearest expiration and

Starting the process wide cputime counter needs to be done in the same
sighand locking sequence than actually arming the related timer otherwise
this races against concurrent timers setting/expiring in the same
threadgroup.
Detecting that the cputime counter is started without holding the sighand
lock is a first step toward debugging such situations.

x = data;
If the timer has previously executed on CPU 1 and then CPU 0 can observe
base->running_timer == NULL and returns, assuming the timer has completed,
but it's not guaranteed on all architectures. The comment for
del_timer_sync() makes that guarantee. Moving the assignment under
base->lock prevents this.
For non-RT kernel it's performance wise completely irrelevant whether the
store happens before or after taking the lock. For an RT kernel moving the
store under the lock requires an extra unlock/lock pair in the case that
there is a waiter for the timer, but that's not the end of the world.

31cd0e119d ("timers: Recalculate next timer interrupt only when
necessary") subtly altered get_next_timer_interrupt()'s behaviour. The
function no longer consistently returns KTIME_MAX with no timers
pending.
In order to decide if there are any timers pending we check whether the
next expiry will happen NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA jiffies from now.
Unfortunately, the next expiry time and the timer base clock are no
longer updated in unison. The former changes upon certain timer
operations (enqueue, expire, detach), whereas the latter keeps track of
jiffies as they move forward. Ultimately breaking the logic above.
A simplified example:
- Upon entering get_next_timer_interrupt() with:
jiffies = 1
base->clk = 0;
base->next_expiry = NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA;
'base->next_expiry == base->clk + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA', the function
returns KTIME_MAX.
- 'base->clk' is updated to the jiffies value.
- The next time we enter get_next_timer_interrupt(), taking into account
no timer operations happened:
base->clk = 1;
base->next_expiry = NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA;
'base->next_expiry != base->clk + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA', the function
returns a valid expire time, which is incorrect.
This ultimately might unnecessarily rearm sched's timer on nohz_full
setups, and add latency to the system[1].
So, introduce 'base->timers_pending'[2], update it every time
'base->next_expiry' changes, and use it in get_next_timer_interrupt().
[1] See tick_nohz_stop_tick().
[2] A quick pahole check on x86_64 and arm64 shows it doesn't make
'struct timer_base' any bigger.

"Time and clocksource/clockevent related updates:
Core changes:
- Infrastructure to support per CPU "broadcast" devices for per CPU
clockevent devices which stop in deep idle states. This allows us
to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs
for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to
access SoC specific clockevent device.
- Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list
- Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between
reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog
clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU
preemption.
Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before
and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the
two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence
is repeated up to 3 times.
- Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog
mechanism.
- Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a
faster and significantly smaller version. Straight from the source,
i.e. the author of the related research paper contributed this!

The current implementation of time64_to_tm() contains unnecessary loops,

The drawback is that the new code isn't intuitive and contains many 'magic

all those numbers and, given this function's history, the code is unlikely
to need much maintenance, if any at all.

When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might
be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that
happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. It would be good
to have a way of testing the clocksource watchdog's ability to
distinguish between these two causes of clock skew and instability.
Therefore, provide a new clocksource-wdtest module selected by a new
TEST_CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG Kconfig option. This module has a single module
parameter named "holdoff" that provides the number of seconds of delay
before testing should start, which defaults to zero when built as a module
and to 10 seconds when built directly into the kernel. Very large systems
that boot slowly may need to increase the value of this module parameter.
This module uses hand-crafted clocksource structures to do its testing,
thus avoiding messing up timing for the rest of the kernel and for user
applications. This module first verifies that the ->uncertainty_margin
field of the clocksource structures are set sanely. It then tests the
delay-detection capability of the clocksource watchdog, increasing the
number of consecutive delays injected, first provoking console messages
complaining about the delays and finally forcing a clock-skew event.
Unexpected test results cause at least one WARN_ON_ONCE() console splat.
If there are no splats, the test has passed. Finally, it fuzzes the
value returned from a clocksource to test the clocksource watchdog's
ability to detect time skew.
This module checks the state of its clocksource after each test, and
uses WARN_ON_ONCE() to emit a console splat if there are any failures.
This should enable all types of test frameworks to detect any such
failures.
This facility is intended for diagnostic use only, and should be avoided
on production systems.

Currently, WATCHDOG_THRESHOLD is set to detect a 62.5-millisecond skew in
a 500-millisecond WATCHDOG_INTERVAL. This requires that clocks be skewed
by more than 12.5% in order to be marked unstable. Except that a clock
that is skewed by that much is probably destroying unsuspecting software
right and left. And given that there are now checks for false-positive
skews due to delays between reading the two clocks, it should be possible
to greatly decrease WATCHDOG_THRESHOLD, at least for fine-grained clocks
such as TSC.
Therefore, add a new uncertainty_margin field to the clocksource structure
that contains the maximum uncertainty in nanoseconds for the corresponding
clock. This field may be initialized manually, as it is for
clocksource_tsc_early and clocksource_jiffies, which is copied to
refined_jiffies. If the field is not initialized manually, it will be
computed at clock-registry time as the period of the clock in question
based on the scale and freq parameters to __clocksource_update_freq_scale()
function. If either of those two parameters are zero, the
tens-of-milliseconds WATCHDOG_THRESHOLD is used as a cowardly alternative
to dividing by zero. No matter how the uncertainty_margin field is
calculated, it is bounded below by twice WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW, that is, by 100
microseconds.
Note that manually initialized uncertainty_margin fields are not adjusted,
but there is a WARN_ON_ONCE() that triggers if any such field is less than
twice WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW. This WARN_ON_ONCE() is intended to discourage
production use of the one-nanosecond uncertainty_margin values that are
used to test the clock-skew code itself.
The actual clock-skew check uses the sum of the uncertainty_margin fields
of the two clocksource structures being compared. Integer overflow is
avoided because the largest computed value of the uncertainty_margin
fields is one billion (10^9), and double that value fits into an
unsigned int. However, if someone manually specifies (say) UINT_MAX,
they will get what they deserve.
Note that the refined_jiffies uncertainty_margin field is initialized to
TICK_NSEC, which means that skew checks involving this clocksource will
be sufficently forgiving. In a similar vein, the clocksource_tsc_early
uncertainty_margin field is initialized to 32*NSEC_PER_MSEC, which
replicates the current behavior and allows custom setting if needed
in order to address the rare skews detected for this clocksource in
current mainline.

Currently, if skew is detected on a clock marked CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU,
that clock is checked on all CPUs. This is thorough, but might not be
what you want on a system with a few tens of CPUs, let alone a few hundred
of them.
Therefore, by default check only up to eight randomly chosen CPUs. Also
provide a new clocksource.verify_n_cpus kernel boot parameter. A value of
-1 says to check all of the CPUs, and a non-negative value says to randomly
select that number of CPUs, without concern about selecting the same CPU
multiple times. However, make use of a cpumask so that a given CPU will be
checked at most once.

Some sorts of per-CPU clock sources have a history of going out of
synchronization with each other. However, this problem has purportedy been
solved in the past ten years. Except that it is all too possible that the
problem has instead simply been made less likely, which might mean that
some of the occasional "Marking clocksource 'tsc' as unstable" messages
might be due to desynchronization. How would anyone know?
Therefore apply CPU-to-CPU synchronization checking to newly unstable
clocksource that are marked with the new CLOCK_SOURCE_VERIFY_PERCPU flag.
Lists of desynchronized CPUs are printed, with the caveat that if it
is the reporting CPU that is itself desynchronized, it will appear that
all the other clocks are wrong. Just like in real life.

When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due
to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to
occur between the reads of the two clocks. Yes, interrupts are disabled
across those two reads, but there are no shortage of things that can delay
interrupts-disabled regions of code ranging from SMI handlers to vCPU
preemption. It would be good to have some indication as to why the clock
was marked unstable.
Therefore, re-read the watchdog clock on either side of the read from the
clock under test. If the watchdog clock shows an excessive time delta
between its pair of reads, the reads are retried.
The maximum number of retries is specified by a new kernel boot parameter
clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries, which defaults to three, that is, up to
four reads, one initial and up to three retries. If more than one retry
was required, a message is printed on the console (the occasional single
retry is expected behavior, especially in guest OSes). If the maximum
number of retries is exceeded, the clock under test will be marked
unstable. However, the probability of this happening due to various sorts
of delays is quite small. In addition, the reason (clock-read delays) for
the unstable marking will be apparent.

When configuring the broadcast timer on entry to and exit from deep idle
states, prefer a per-CPU wakeup timer if one exists.
On entry to idle, stop the tick device and transfer the next event into
the oneshot wakeup device, which will serve as the wakeup from idle. To
avoid the overhead of additional hardware accesses on exit from idle,
leave the timer armed and treat the inevitable interrupt as a (possibly

Some SoCs have two per-cpu timer implementations where the timer with the
higher rating stops in deep idle (i.e. suffers from CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP)
but is otherwise preferable to the timer with the lower rating. In such a
design, selecting the higher rated devices relies on a global broadcast
timer and IPIs to wake up from deep idle states.
To avoid the reliance on a global broadcast timer and also to reduce the
overhead associated with the IPI wakeups, extend
tick_install_broadcast_device() to manage per-cpu wakeup timers separately
from the broadcast device.
For now, these timers remain unused.

Checking for and processing RCU-nocb deferred wakeup upon user/guest
entry is only relevant when nohz_full runs on the local CPU, otherwise
the periodic tick should take care of it.
Make sure we don't needlessly pollute these fast-paths as a -3%
performance regression on a will-it-scale.per_process_ops has been
reported so far.

Call tick_nohz_task_switch() slightly earlier after the context switch
to benefit from disabled IRQs. This way the function doesn't need to
disable them once more.

When the tick dependency of a task is updated, we want it to aknowledge
the new state and restart the tick if needed. If the task is not
running, we don't need to kick it because it will observe the new
dependency upon scheduling in. But if the task is running, we may need
to send an IPI to it so that it gets notified.
Unfortunately we don't have the means to check if a task is running
in a race free way. Checking p->on_cpu in a synchronized way against
p->tick_dep_mask would imply adding a full barrier between
prepare_task_switch() and tick_nohz_task_switch(), which we want to
avoid in this fast-path.
Therefore we blindly fire an IPI to the task's CPU.
Meanwhile we can check if the task is queued on the CPU rq because
p->on_rq is always set to TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED _before_ schedule() and its
full barrier that precedes tick_nohz_task_switch(). And if the task is
queued on a nohz_full CPU, it also has fair chances to be running as the
isolation constraints prescribe running single tasks on full dynticks
CPUs.
So use this as a trick to check if we can spare an IPI toward a
non-running task.
NOTE: For the ordering to be correct, it is assumed that we never
deactivate a task while it is running, the only exception being the task
deactivating itself while scheduling out.

When adding a tick dependency to a task, its necessary to
wake up the CPU where the task resides to reevaluate tick
dependencies on that CPU.
However the current code wakes up all nohz_full CPUs, which
is unnecessary.
Switch to waking up a single CPU, by using ordering of writes
to task->cpu and task->tick_dep_mask.

The idle_exittime field of tick_sched is used to record the time when
the idle state was left. but currently the idle_exittime is updated in
the function tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), which is not always in idle
state when nohz_full is configured:
tick_irq_exit
tick_nohz_irq_exit
tick_nohz_full_update_tick
tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick
ts->idle_exittime = now;
It's thus overwritten by mistake on nohz_full tick restart. Move the
update to the appropriate idle exit path instead.

In nohz_full mode, switching from idle to a task will unconditionally
issue a tick restart. If the task is alone in the runqueue or is the
highest priority, the tick will fire once then eventually stop. But that
alone is still undesired noise.
Therefore, only restart the tick on idle exit when it's strictly
necessary.

RTC drivers used to leave .set_alarm() NULL in order to signal the RTC
device doesn't support alarms. The drivers are now clearing the
RTC_FEATURE_ALARM bit for that purpose in order to keep the rtc_class_ops
structure const. So now, .set_alarm() is set unconditionally and this
possibly causes the alarmtimer code to select an RTC device that doesn't
support alarms.
Test RTC_FEATURE_ALARM instead of relying on ops->set_alarm to determine
whether alarms are available.

Core changes:
- Allow runtime power management when the clocksource is changed.
- A correctness fix for clock_adjtime32() so that the return value
on success is not overwritten by the result of the copy to user.
- Allow late installment of broadcast clockevent devices which was
broken because nothing switched them over to oneshot mode. This went
unnoticed so far because clockevent devices used to be built in, but
now people started to make them modular.
- Debugfs related simplifications
- Small cleanups and improvements here and there
Driver changes:
- The usual set of device tree binding updates for a wide range
of drivers/devices.
- The usual updates and improvements for drivers all over the place but
nothing outstanding.
- No new clocksource/event drivers. They'll come back next time.

Merge tag 'timers-core-2021-04-26' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The time and timers updates contain:
Core changes:
- Allow runtime power management when the clocksource is changed.
- A correctness fix for clock_adjtime32() so that the return value on
success is not overwritten by the result of the copy to user.
- Allow late installment of broadcast clockevent devices which was
broken because nothing switched them over to oneshot mode. This
went unnoticed so far because clockevent devices used to be built
in, but now people started to make them modular.
- Debugfs related simplifications
- Small cleanups and improvements here and there
Driver changes:
- The usual set of device tree binding updates for a wide range of
drivers/devices.
- The usual updates and improvements for drivers all over the place
but nothing outstanding.
- No new clocksource/event drivers. They'll come back next time"
