 "Workqueue changes for v4.5.  One cleanup patch and three to improve
  the debuggability.

  Workqueue now has a stall detector which dumps workqueue state if any
  worker pool hasn't made forward progress over a certain amount of time
  (30s by default) and also triggers a warning if a workqueue which can
  be used in memory reclaim path tries to wait on something which can't
  be.

  These should make workqueue hangs a lot easier to debug."

  posix-clock: Fix return code on the poll method's error path
2016-01-11 18:06:43 -08:00
Richard Cochran 1b9f23727a posix-clock: Fix return code on the poll method's error path
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.

Yang Yingliang 1f45f1f33c clocksource: Make clocksource validation work for all clocksources
The clocksource validation which makes sure that the newly read value
is not smaller than the last value only works if the clocksource mask
is 64bit, i.e. the counter is 64bit wide. But we want to use that
mechanism also for clocksources which are less than 64bit wide.

So instead of checking whether bit 63 is set, we check whether the
most significant bit of the clocksource mask is set in the delta
result. If it is set, we return 0.

John Stultz ec02b076ce timekeeping: Cap adjustments so they don't exceed the maxadj value
Thus its been occasionally noted that users have seen
confusing warnings like:

    Adjusting tsc more than 11% (5941981 vs 7759439)

We try to limit the maximum total adjustment to 11% (10% tick
adjustment + 0.5% frequency adjustment). But this is done by
bounding the requested adjustment values, and the internal
steering that is done by tracking the error from what was
requested and what was applied, does not have any such limits.

This is usually not problematic, but in some cases has a risk
that an adjustment could cause the clocksource mult value to
overflow, so its an indication things are outside of what is
expected.

It ends up most of the reports of this 11% warning are on systems
using chrony, which utilizes the adjtimex() ADJ_TICK interface
(which allows a +-10% adjustment). The original rational for
ADJ_TICK unclear to me but my assumption it was originally added
to allow broken systems to get a big constant correction at boot
(see adjtimex userspace package for an example) which would allow
the system to work w/ ntpd's 0.5% adjustment limit.

Chrony uses ADJ_TICK to make very aggressive short term corrections
(usually right at startup). Which push us close enough to the max
bound that a few late ticks can cause the internal steering to push
past the max adjust value (tripping the warning).

Thus this patch adds some extra logic to enforce the max adjustment
cap in the internal steering.

Note: This has the potential to slow corrections when the ADJ_TICK
value is furthest away from the default value. So it would be good to
get some testing from folks using chrony, to make sure we don't
cause any troubles there.

DengChao c796348774 ntp: Fix second_overflow's input parameter type to be 64bits
The function "second_overflow" uses "unsign long"
as its input parameter type which will overflow after
year 2106 on 32bit systems.

Thus this patch replaces it with time64_t type.

While the 64-bit division is expensive, "next_ntp_leap_sec"
has been calculated already, so we can just re-use it in the
TIME_INS/DEL cases, allowing one expensive division per
leapsecond instead of re-doing the divsion once a second after
the leap flag has been set.

DengChao 0af864651b ntp: Change time_reftime to time64_t and utilize 64bit __ktime_get_real_seconds
The type of static variant "time_reftime" and the call of
get_seconds in ntp are both not y2038 safe.

So change the type of time_reftime to time64_t and replace
get_seconds with __ktime_get_real_seconds.

The local variant "secs" in ntp_update_offset represents
seconds between now and last ntp adjustment, it seems impossible
that this time will last more than 68 years, so keep its type as
"long".

Tejun Heo 03e0d4610b watchdog: introduce touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched()
touch_softlockup_watchdog() is used to tell watchdog that scheduler
stall is expected.  One group of usage is from paths where the task
may not be able to yield for a long time such as performing slow PIO
to finicky device and coming out of suspend.  The other is to account
for scheduler and timer going idle.

For scheduler softlockup detection, there's no reason to distinguish
the two cases; however, workqueue lockup detector is planned and it
can use the same signals from the former group while the latter would
spuriously prevent detection.  This patch introduces a new function
touch_softlockup_watchdog_sched() and convert the latter group to call
it instead.  For now, it just calls touch_softlockup_watchdog() and
there's no functional difference.

David Gibson 35a4933a89 time: Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_get_ns()
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.

zhuo-hao a0e3213f83 alarmtimer: Avoid unexpected rtc interrupt when system resume from S3
Before the system go to suspend (S3), if user create a timer
with clockid CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM/CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM and set a
"large" timeout value to this timer. The function
alarmtimer_suspend will be called to setup a timeout value to
RTC timer to avoid the system sleep over time. However, if the
system wakeup early than RTC timeout, the RTC timer will not be
cleared. And this will cause the hpet_rtc_interrupt come
unexpectedly until the RTC timeout. To fix this problem, just
adding alarmtimer_resume to cancel the RTC timer.

This was noticed because the HPET RTC emulation fires an
interrupt every 16ms(=1/2^DEFAULT_RTC_SHIFT) up to the point
where the alarm time is reached.

This program always hits this situation
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/8/326), if system wake up earlier
than alarm time.

Tejun Heo 22b886dd10 timers: Use proper base migration in add_timer_on()
Regardless of the previous CPU a timer was on, add_timer_on()
currently simply sets timer->flags to the new CPU.  As the caller must
be seeing the timer as idle, this is locally fine, but the timer
leaving the old base while unlocked can lead to race conditions as
follows.

Let's say timer was on cpu 0.

  cpu 0					cpu 1
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  del_timer(timer) succeeds
					del_timer(timer)
					  lock_timer_base(timer) locks cpu_0_base
  add_timer_on(timer, 1)
    spin_lock(&cpu_1_base->lock)
    timer->flags set to cpu_1_base
    operates on @timer			  operates on @timer

This triggered with mod_delayed_work_on() which contains
"if (del_timer()) add_timer_on()" sequence eventually leading to the
following oops.

Thomas Gleixner 56fd16caba timekeeping: Increment clock_was_set_seq in timekeeping_init()
timekeeping_init() can set the wall time offset, so we need to
increment the clock_was_set_seq counter. That way hrtimers will pick
up the early offset immediately. Otherwise on a machine which does not
set wall time later in the boot process the hrtimer offset is stale at
0 and wall time timers are going to expire with a delay of 45 years.

Jason Low c8d75aa47d posix_cpu_timer: Reduce unnecessary sighand lock contention
It was found while running a database workload on large systems that
significant time was spent trying to acquire the sighand lock.

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.

In the next patch in this series, a new field 'checking_timer' will
be added to 'struct thread_group_cputimer'. Both this and the
existing 'running' integer field are just used as boolean values. To
save space in the structure, we can make both of these fields booleans.

This is a preparatory patch to convert the existing running integer

Jason Low 934715a191 posix_cpu_timer: Check thread timers only when there are active thread timers
The fastpath_timer_check() contains logic to check for if any timers
are set by checking if !task_cputime_zero(). Similarly, we can do this
before calling check_thread_timers(). In the case where there
are only process-wide timers, this will skip all of the computations for
per-thread timers when there are no per-thread timers.

As suggested by George, we can put the task_cputime_zero() check in
check_thread_timers(), since that is more of an optization to the
function. Similarly, we move the existing check of cputimer->running
to check_process_timers().

Rasmus Villemoes 9fc4468d54 timers: Use __fls in apply_slack()
In apply_slack(), find_last_bit() is applied to a bitmask consisting
of precisely BITS_PER_LONG bits. Since mask is non-zero, we might as
well eliminate the function call and use __fls() directly. On x86_64,
this shaves 23 bytes of the only caller, mod_timer().

This also gets rid of Coverity CID 1192106, but that is a false
positive: Coverity is not aware that mask != 0 implies that
find_last_bit will not return BITS_PER_LONG.

The sync_cmos_clock has one use of struct timespec, which we want to

is no way this one can overflow, but the conversion to timespec64

Arnd Bergmann 071eee45b1 ntp/pps: replace getnstime_raw_and_real with 64-bit version
There is exactly one caller of getnstime_raw_and_real in the kernel,
which is the pps_get_ts function. 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.

Arnd Bergmann 7ec88e4be4 ntp/pps: use timespec64 for hardpps()
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.

Dmitry Vyukov 3ed769bdb2 timers: Fix data race in timer_stats_account_timer()
timer_stats_account_timer() reads timer->start_site, then checks it
for NULL and then re-reads it again, while
timer_stats_timer_clear_start_info() can concurrently reset
timer->start_site to NULL. This should not lead to crashes, but can
double number of entries in timer stats as start_site is used during
comparison, the doubled entries will have unuseful NULL start_site.

Read timer->start_site only once in timer_stats_account_timer().

The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

John Stultz 2619d7e9c9 time: Fix timekeeping_freqadjust()'s incorrect use of abs() instead of abs64()
The internal clocksteering done for fine-grained error
correction uses a logarithmic approximation, so any time
adjtimex() adjusts the clock steering, timekeeping_freqadjust()
quickly approximates the correct clock frequency over a series
of ticks.

Unfortunately, the logic in timekeeping_freqadjust(), introduced
in commit:

  dc491596f6 ("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.

Linus Torvalds 7073bc6612 Merge branch 'core-rcu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main RCU changes in this cycle are:

   - the combination of tree geometry-initialization simplifications and
     OS-jitter-reduction changes to expedited grace periods.  These two
     are stacked due to the large number of conflicts that would
     otherwise result.

   - privatize smp_mb__after_unlock_lock().

     This commit moves the definition of smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() to
     kernel/rcu/tree.h, in recognition of the fact that RCU is the only
     thing using this, that nothing else is likely to use it, and that
     it is likely to go away completely.

   - documentation updates.

   - torture-test updates.

   - misc fixes"

Guenter Roeck 85e1cd6e76 hrtimer: Handle failure of tick_init_highres() gracefully
Commit 75e3b37d05 ("hrtimer: Drop return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres()")
drops the return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres(). While doing so, it also
drops the return statement itself on failure. This may cause a system hang.
Seen when running arm:multi_v7_defconfig in qemu with devicetree file
vexpress-v2p-ca9.
