Guenter reported boot stalls on a emulated ARM 32-bit platform, which has a
24-bit wide clocksource.
It turns out that the calculated maximal idle time, which limits idle
sleeps to prevent clocksource wrap arounds, is close to the point where the
negative motion detection triggers.
max_idle_ns: 597268854 ns
negative motion tripping point: 671088640 ns
If the idle wakeup is delayed beyond that point, the clocksource
advances far enough to trigger the negative motion detection. This
prevents the clock to advance and in the worst case the system stalls
completely if the consecutive sleeps based on the stale clock are
delayed as well.
Cure this by calculating a more robust cut-off value for negative motion,
which covers 87.5% of the actual clocksource counter width. Compare the
delta against this value to catch negative motion. This is specifically for
clock sources with a small counter width as their wrap around time is close
to the half counter width. For clock sources with wide counters this is not
a problem because the maximum idle time is far from the half counter width
due to the math overflow protection constraints.
For the case at hand this results in a tripping point of 1174405120ns.
Note, that this cannot prevent issues when the delay exceeds the 87.5%
margin, but that's not different from the previous unchecked version which
allowed arbitrary time jumps.
Systems with small counter width are prone to invalid results, but this
problem is unlikely to be seen on real hardware. If such a system
completely stalls for more than half a second, then there are other more
urgent problems than the counter wrapping around.

Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update for timekeeping and timers:
- The final step to get rid of auto-rearming posix-timers
posix-timers are currently auto-rearmed by the kernel when the
signal of the timer is ignored so that the timer signal can be
delivered once the corresponding signal is unignored.
This requires to throttle the timer to prevent a DoS by small
intervals and keeps the system pointlessly out of low power states
for no value. This is a long standing non-trivial problem due to
the lock order of posix-timer lock and the sighand lock along with
life time issues as the timer and the sigqueue have different life
time rules.
Cure this by:
- Embedding the sigqueue into the timer struct to have the same
life time rules. Aside of that this also avoids the lookup of
the timer in the signal delivery and rearm path as it's just a
always valid container_of() now.
- Queuing ignored timer signals onto a seperate ignored list.
- Moving queued timer signals onto the ignored list when the
signal is switched to SIG_IGN before it could be delivered.
- Walking the ignored list when SIG_IGN is lifted and requeue the
signals to the actual signal lists. This allows the signal
delivery code to rearm the timer.
This also required to consolidate the signal delivery rules so they
are consistent across all situations. With that all self test
scenarios finally succeed.
- Core infrastructure for VFS multigrain timestamping
This is required to allow the kernel to use coarse grained time
stamps by default and switch to fine grained time stamps when inode
attributes are actively observed via getattr().
These changes have been provided to the VFS tree as well, so that
the VFS specific infrastructure could be built on top.
- Cleanup and consolidation of the sleep() infrastructure
- Move all sleep and timeout functions into one file
- Rework udelay() and ndelay() into proper documented inline
functions and replace the hardcoded magic numbers by proper
defines.
- Rework the fsleep() implementation to take the reality of the
timer wheel granularity on different HZ values into account.
Right now the boundaries are hard coded time ranges which fail
to provide the requested accuracy on different HZ settings.
- Update documentation for all sleep/timeout related functions
and fix up stale documentation links all over the place
- Fixup a few usage sites
- Rework of timekeeping and adjtimex(2) to prepare for multiple PTP
clocks
A system can have multiple PTP clocks which are participating in
seperate and independent PTP clock domains. So far the kernel only
considers the PTP clock which is based on CLOCK TAI relevant as
that's the clock which drives the timekeeping adjustments via the
various user space daemons through adjtimex(2).
The non TAI based clock domains are accessible via the file
descriptor based posix clocks, but their usability is very limited.
They can't be accessed fast as they always go all the way out to
the hardware and they cannot be utilized in the kernel itself.
As Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) gains traction it is required to
provide fast user and kernel space access to these clocks.
The approach taken is to utilize the timekeeping and adjtimex(2)
infrastructure to provide this access in a similar way how the
kernel provides access to clock MONOTONIC, REALTIME etc.
Instead of creating a duplicated infrastructure this rework
converts timekeeping and adjtimex(2) into generic functionality
which operates on pointers to data structures instead of using
static variables.
This allows to provide time accessors and adjtimex(2) functionality
for the independent PTP clocks in a subsequent step.
- Consolidate hrtimer initialization
hrtimers are set up by initializing the data structure and then
seperately setting the callback function for historical reasons.
That's an extra unnecessary step and makes Rust support less
straight forward than it should be.
Provide a new set of hrtimer_setup*() functions and convert the
core code and a few usage sites of the less frequently used
interfaces over.
The bulk of the htimer_init() to hrtimer_setup() conversion is
already prepared and scheduled for the next merge window.
- Drivers:
- Ensure that the global timekeeping clocksource is utilizing the
cluster 0 timer on MIPS multi-cluster systems.
Otherwise CPUs on different clusters use their cluster specific
clocksource which is not guaranteed to be synchronized with
other clusters.
- Mostly boring cleanups, fixes, improvements and code movement"

The hrtimer_init*() API is replaced by hrtimer_setup*() variants to
initialize the timer including the callback function at once.
hrtimer_init_sleeper_on_stack() does not need user to setup the callback
function separately, so a new variant would not be strictly necessary.
Nonetheless, to keep the naming convention consistent, introduce
hrtimer_setup_sleeper_on_stack(). hrtimer_init_on_stack() will be removed
once all users are converted.

and also hrtimer::function must be set. This is error-prone and awkward to
use.
Introduce hrtimer_setup_on_stack() which does both of these things, so that
users of hrtimer can be simplified.
The new setup function also has a sanity check for the provided function
pointer. If NULL, a warning is emitted and a dummy callback installed.

Queue posixtimers which have their signal ignored on the ignored list:
1) When the timer fires and the signal has SIG_IGN set
2) When SIG_IGN is installed via sigaction() and a timer signal
is already queued
This only happens when the signal is for a valid timer, which delivered the
signal in periodic mode. One-shot timer signals are correctly dropped.
Due to the lock order constraints (sighand::siglock nests inside
timer::lock) the signal code cannot access any of the timer fields which
are relevant to make this decision, e.g. timer::it_status.
This is addressed by establishing a protection scheme which requires to
lock both locks on the timer side for modifying decision fields in the
timer struct and therefore makes it possible for the signal delivery to
evaluate with only sighand:siglock being held:
1) Move the NULLification of timer->it_signal into the sighand::siglock
protected section of timer_delete() and check timer::it_signal in the
code path which determines whether the signal is dropped or queued on
the ignore list.
This ensures that a deleted timer cannot be moved onto the ignore
list, which would prevent it from being freed on exit() as it is not
longer in the process' posix timer list.
If the timer got moved to the ignored list before deletion then it is
removed from the ignored list under sighand lock in timer_delete().
2) Provide a new timer::it_sig_periodic flag, which gets set in the
signal queue path with both timer and sighand locks held if the timer
is actually in periodic mode at expiry time.
The ignore list code checks this flag under sighand::siglock and drops
the signal when it is not set.
If it is set, then the signal is moved to the ignored list independent
of the actual state of the timer.
When the signal is un-ignored later then the signal is moved back to
the signal queue. On signal delivery the posix timer side decides
about dropping the signal if the timer was re-armed, dis-armed or
deleted based on the signal sequence counter check.
If the thread/process exits then not yet delivered signals are
discarded which means the reference of the timer containing the
sigqueue is dropped and frees the timer.
This is way cheaper than requiring all code paths to lock
sighand::siglock of the target thread/process on any modification of
timer::it_status or going all the way and removing pending signals
from the signal queues on every rearm, disarm or delete operation.
So the protection scheme here is that on the timer side both timer::lock
and sighand::siglock have to be held for modifying
timer::it_signal
timer::it_sig_periodic
which means that on the signal side holding sighand::siglock is enough to
evaluate these fields.
In posixtimer_deliver_signal() holding timer::lock is sufficient to do the
sequence validation against timer::it_signal_seq because a concurrent
expiry is waiting on timer::lock to be released.
This completes the SIG_IGN handling and such timers are not longer self
rearmed which avoids pointless wakeups.

The posix timer signal handling uses siginfo::si_sys_private for handling
the sequence counter check. That indirection is not longer required and the
sequence count value at signal queueing time can be stored in struct
k_itimer itself.
This removes the requirement of treating siginfo::si_sys_private special as
it's now always zero as the kernel does not touch it anymore.

To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated
sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time
races of all sorts.
Now that the prerequisites are in place, embed the sigqueue into struct

Aside of preparing for proper SIG_IGN handling, this spares an extra

To handle posix timers which have their signal ignored via SIG_IGN properly
it is required to requeue a ignored signal for delivery when SIG_IGN is
lifted so the timer gets rearmed.
Split the required code out of send_sigqueue() so it can be reused in
context of sigaction().
While at it rename send_sigqueue() to posixtimer_send_sigqueue() so its
clear what this is about.

To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated
sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time
races of all sorts.
To make that work correctly it needs reference counting so that timer
deletion does not free the timer prematuraly when there is a signal queued
or delivered concurrently.
Add a rcuref to the posix timer part.

The firing flag of a posix CPU timer is tristate:
0: when the timer is not about to deliver a signal
1: when the timer has expired, but the signal has not been delivered yet
-1: when the timer was queued for signal delivery and a rearm operation
raced against it and supressed the signal delivery.
This is a pointless exercise as this can be simply expressed with a
boolean. Only if set, the signal is delivered. This makes delete and rearm
consistent with the rest of the posix timers.
Convert firing to bool and fixup the usage sites accordingly and add
comments why the timer cannot be dequeued right away.

The handling of the timer overrun in the signal code is inconsistent as it
takes previous overruns into account. This is just wrong as after the
reprogramming of a timer the overrun count starts over from a clean state,
i.e. 0.
Don't touch info::si_overrun in send_sigqueue() and only store the overrun
value at signal delivery time, which is computed from the timer itself
relative to the expiry time.

Signals of timers which are reprogammed, disarmed or deleted can deliver
signals related to the past. The POSIX spec is blury about this:
- "The effect of disarming or resetting a timer with pending expiration
notifications is unspecified."
- "The disposition of pending signals for the deleted timer is
unspecified."
In both cases it is reasonable to expect that pending signals are
discarded. Especially in the reprogramming case it does not make sense to
account for previous overruns or to deliver a signal for a timer which has
been disarmed. This makes the behaviour consistent and understandable.
Remove the si_sys_private check from the signal delivery code and invoke
posix_timer_deliver_signal() unconditionally for posix timer related
signals.
Change posix_timer_deliver_signal() so it controls the actual signal
delivery via the return value. It now instructs the signal code to drop the
signal when:
1) The timer does not longer exist in the hash table
2) The timer signal_seq value is not the same as the si_sys_private value
which was set when the signal was queued.
This is also a preparatory change to embed the sigqueue into the k_itimer
structure, which in turn allows to remove the si_sys_private magic.

If posix_cpu_timer_del() exits early due to task not found or sighand

inconsistent.
These early exits are accounted as successful delete. Move the update of
the timer state into the success return path, so all "successful" deletions
are handled.

clocksource_delta() has two variants. One with a check for negative motion,
which is only selected by x86. This is a historic leftover as this function
was previously used in the time getter hot paths.
Since 135225a363ae timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() has unconditional protection
against this as a by-product of the protection against 64bit math overflow.
clocksource_delta() is only used in the clocksource watchdog and in
timekeeping_advance(). The extra conditional there is not hurting anyone.

The generic clockevent layer now detaches and stops the underlying

periodic and oneshot mode on offline CPUs. There is no more need for

The way the clockevent devices are finally stopped while a CPU is
offlining is currently chaotic. The layout being by order:
1) tick_sched_timer_dying() stops the tick and the underlying clockevent
but only for oneshot case. The periodic tick and its related
clockevent still runs.
2) tick_broadcast_offline() detaches and stops the per-cpu oneshot
broadcast and append it to the released list.
3) Some individual clockevent drivers stop the clockevents (a second time if
the tick is oneshot)
4) Once the CPU is dead, a control CPU remotely detaches and stops
(a 3rd time if oneshot mode) the CPU clockevent and adds it to the
released list.
5) The released list containing the broadcast device released on step 2)
and the remotely detached clockevent from step 4) are unregistered.
These random events can be factorized if the current clockevent is
detached and stopped by the dying CPU at the generic layer, that is
from the dying CPU:
a) Stop the tick
b) Stop/detach the underlying per-cpu oneshot broadcast clockevent
c) Stop/detach the underlying clockevent
d) Release / unregister the clockevents from b) and c)
e) Release / unregister the remaining clockevents from the dying CPU.
This part could be performed by the dying CPU
This way the drivers and the tick layer don't need to care about
clockevent operations during cpuhotplug down. This also unifies the tick
behaviour on offline CPUs between oneshot and periodic modes, avoiding
offline ticks altogether for sanity.
Adopt the simplification.

When a new clockevent device is added and replaces a previous device,
the latter is put into the released list. Then the released list is
added back.
This may look counter-intuitive but the reason is that released device
might be suitable for other uses. For example a released CPU regular
clockevent can be a better replacement for the current broadcast event.
Similarly a released broadcast clockevent can be a better replacement
for the current regular clockevent of a given CPU.
Improve comments stating about these subtleties.

A boolean which tracks armed/disarmed state
- it_signal_seq:
A sequence counter which is used to invalidate settings
and prevent rearming
Replace it_active with it_status and keep properly track about the states
in one place.

The si_sys_private member of the siginfo which is embedded in the
preallocated sigqueue is used by the posix timer code to decide whether a
timer must be reprogrammed on signal delivery.
The handling of this is racy as a long standing comment in that code
documents. It is modified with the timer lock held, but without sighand
lock being held. The actual signal delivery code checks for it under
sighand lock without holding the timer lock.
Hand the new value to send_sigqueue() as argument and store it with sighand
lock held. This is an intermediate change to address this issue.

Updates of the timekeeper can be done by operating on the shadow timekeeper
and afterwards copying the result into the real timekeeper. This has the
advantage, that the sequence count write protected region is kept as small
as possible.
Convert do_adjtimex() to use this scheme and take the opportunity to use a
scoped_guard() for locking.
That requires to have a separate function for updating the leap state so
that the update is protected by the sequence count. This also brings the
timekeeper and the shadow timekeeper in sync for this state, which was not
the case so far. That's not a correctness problem as the state is only used
at the read sides which use the real timekeeper, but it's inconsistent
nevertheless.

While the sequence count held time is not relevant for the resume path as
there is no concurrency, there is no reason to have this function
different than all the other update sites.
Convert timekeeping_inject_offset() to use this scheme and cleanup the

As halt_fast_timekeeper() does not need protection sequence counter, it is

Updates of the timekeeper can be done by operating on the shadow timekeeper
and afterwards copying the result into the real timekeeper. This has the
advantage, that the sequence count write protected region is kept as small
as possible.
While the sequence count held time is not relevant for the resume path as
there is no concurrency, there is no reason to have this function
different than all the other update sites.
Convert timekeeping_inject_offset() to use this scheme and cleanup the
variable declaration while at it.

For timekeeping_init() the sequence count write held time is not relevant
and it could keep working on the real timekeeper, but there is no reason to
make it different from other timekeeper updates.
Convert it to operate on the shadow timekeeper.

Convert timekeeping_inject_offset() to use this scheme.
That allows to use a scoped_guard() for locking the timekeeper lock as the
usage of the shadow timekeeper allows a rollback in the error case instead
of the full timekeeper update of the original code.
