Tony Breeds 2c62214831 Fix discrepancy between VDSO based gettimeofday() and sys_gettimeofday().
On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to
include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user
calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr).

This patch adds a hook for architectures that set
CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also
updatee their copy in the vdso.

Ingo Molnar f20bf61256 time: introduce xtime_seconds
improve performance of sys_time(). sys_time() returns time in seconds,
but it does so by calling do_gettimeofday() and then returning the
tv_sec portion of the GTOD time. But the data structure "xtime", which
is updated by every timer/scheduler tick, already offers HZ granularity
time.

the patch improves the sysbench oltp macrobenchmark by 4-5% on an AMD
dual-core system:

v2.6.23:

#threads

   5:     transactions:                        8070   (806.74 per sec.)

v2.6.23 + sys_time-speedup.patch:

   1:     transactions:                        4281   (428.09 per sec.)

   5:     transactions:                        8532   (852.91 per sec.)

and by 4-5% on an Intel dual-core system too:

2.6.23:

  1:     transactions:                        4560   (455.94 per sec.)

  5:     transactions:                        9701   (969.72 per sec.)

2.6.23 + sys_time-speedup.patch:

  1:     transactions:                        4779   (477.84 per sec.)
  2:     transactions:                        10103  (1010.14 per sec.)

  5:     transactions:                        10178  (1017.50 per sec.)

(the more CPUs the system has, the more speedup this patch gives for
this particular workload.)

john stultz 2c6b47de17 Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions.  Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.

This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

Linus Torvalds 2008220879 Revert "sys_time() speedup"
This basically reverts commit 4e44f3497d,
while waiting for it to be re-done more completely.  There are cases of
people mixing "time()" with higher-resolution time sources, and we need
to take the nanosecond offsets into account.

Ingo has a patch that does that, but it's still under some discussion.
In the meantime, just revert back to the old simple situation of just
doing the whole exact timesource calculations.

But rather than using do_gettimeofday(), use the internal nanosecond
resolution getnstimeofday(), which at least avoids one unnecessary
conversion (since we really don't care about whether the fractional
seconds are nanoseconds or microseconds - we'll just throw them away).

Mixed API uses of gettimeofday() and time() are guaranteed to be coherent
via the use of a at-most-once-per-second slowpath that updates xtime.

Eric Dumazet 753e9c5cd9 Optimize timespec_trunc()
The first thing done by timespec_trunc() is :

  if (gran <= jiffies_to_usecs(1) * 1000)

This should really be a test against a constant known at compile time.

Alas, it isnt. jiffies_to_usec() was unilined so C compiler emits a function
call and a multiply to compute : a CONSTANT.

mov    $0x1,%edi
mov    %rbx,0xffffffffffffffe8(%rbp)
mov    %r12,0xfffffffffffffff0(%rbp)
mov    %edx,%ebx
mov    %rsi,0xffffffffffffffc8(%rbp)
mov    %rsi,%r12
callq  ffffffff80232010 <jiffies_to_usecs>
imul   $0x3e8,%eax,%eax
cmp    %ebx,%eax

This patch reorders kernel/time.c a bit so that jiffies_to_usecs() is defined
before timespec_trunc() so that compiler now generates :

cmp    $0x3d0900,%edx  (HZ=250 on my machine)

This gives a better code (timespec_trunc() becoming a leaf function), and
shorter kernel size as well.

Eric Dumazet b7aa0bf70c [NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_t
We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain
'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct
sock.

This has some drawbacks :
- Fixed resolution of micro second.
- Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16

I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution
time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution.

As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits
a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other
structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in
ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...)

Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide
nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or
SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS)

Note : this patch includes a bug correction in
compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this
syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0)

timeval_to_jiffies().  The (not yet merged) dm-raid4-5 module will need

Commit 8b9365d753 ("[PATCH] Uninline
jiffies.h functions") uninlined them, and thus modules now need them
explicitly exported to use them.

Ingo Molnar 41cf54455d [PATCH] Fix multiple conversion bugs in msecs_to_jiffies
Fix multiple conversion bugs in msecs_to_jiffies().

The main problem is that this condition:

	if (m > jiffies_to_msecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET))

overflows if HZ is smaller than 1000!

This change is user-visible: for HZ=250 SUS-compliant poll()-timeout
value of -20 is mistakenly converted to 'immediate timeout'.

(The new dyntick code also triggered this, that's how we noticed.)

I was grepping through the code and some `grep ganularity -R .` didn't

used in only four places (in comments) and granularity in many more
places describing the same idea. Some other facts:

dictionary.com does not know such a word
define:granuality on google is not found (and pages for granuality are
mostly related to patches to the kernel)
it has not been discussed as a term on LKML, AFAICS (=Can Search)

To be consistent, I think granularity should be used everywhere.

Matt Helsley 64123fd42c [PATCH] Add getnstimestamp function
There are several functions that might seem appropriate for a timestamp:

get_cycles()
current_kernel_time()
do_gettimeofday()
<read jiffies/jiffies_64>

Each has problems with combinations of SMP-safety, low resolution, and
monotonicity. This patch adds a new function that returns a monotonic SMP-safe
timestamp with nanosecond resolution where available.

Changes:
	Split timestamp into separate patch
	Moved to kernel/time.c
	Renamed to getnstimestamp
	Fixed unintended-pointer-arithmetic bug

john stultz 1bb34a4127 [PATCH] NTP shift_right cleanup
Create a macro shift_right() that avoids the numerous ugly conditionals in the
NTP code that look like:

        if(a < 0)
                b = -(-a >> shift);
        else
                b = a >> shift;

Replacing it with:

        b = shift_right(a, shift);

This should have zero effect on the logic, however it should probably have
a bit of testing just to be sure.

Also replace open-coded min/max with the macros.

Al Viro 943eae0314 [PATCH] missing exports of do_settimeofday() variants
frv, sh64, ia64 and sparc64 do not have do_settimeofday() exported (the
last two are using variant in kernel/time.c).  Exports added to match
the rest of architectures.

Jesper Juhl 77933d7276 [PATCH] clean up inline static vs static inline
`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of
the declaration.  This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline
static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in
47 files).

While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace
that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here
and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

Christoph Lameter 9acf6597c5 [PATCH] time interpolator: Fix settimeofday inaccuracy
settimeofday will set the time a little bit too early on systems using
time interpolation since it subtracts the current interpolator offset
from the time. This used to be necessary with the code in 2.6.9 and earlier
but the new code resets the time interpolator after setting the time.
Thus the time is set too early and gettimeofday will return a time slightly
before the time specified with settimeofday if invoked immeditely after
settimeofday.

This removes the obsolete subtraction of the time interpolator offset
and makes settimeofday set the time accurately.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
