2018-08-02tick/broadcast-hrtimer: Use cpu_possible_mask for ce_broadcast_hrtimerSudeep Holla1-1/+1
This is the last instance of cpu_all_mask usage in the core framework. Replace it with cpu_possible_mask like all other instances in the clockevent drivers. This makes it possible to add a warning in the core clockevents_register_device on usage of cpu_all_mask from any clockevent drivers in the future.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2016-12-25ktime: Get rid of the unionThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
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.

2015-05-05tick: hrtimer-broadcast: Prevent endless restarting when broadcast device is ↵Andreas Sandberg1-3/+7
unused The hrtimer callback in the hrtimer's tick broadcast code sometimes incorrectly ends up scheduling events at the current tick causing the kernel to hang servicing the same hrtimer forever. This typically happens when a device is swapped out by tick_install_broadcast_device(), which replaces the event handler with clock_events_handle_noop() and sets the device mode to CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED. If the timer is scheduled when this happens, the next_event field will not be updated and the hrtimer ends up being restarted at the current tick. To prevent this from happening, only try to restart the hrtimer if the broadcast clock event device is in one of the active modes and try to cancel the timer when entering the CLOCK_EVT_MODE_UNUSED mode.

2015-04-22tick: broadcast-hrtimer: Remove overly clever return value abuseThomas Gleixner1-3/+5
The assignment of bc_moved in the conditional construct relies on the fact that in the case of hrtimer_start() invocation the return value is always 0. It took me a while to understand it. We want to get rid of the hrtimer_start() return value. Open code the logic which makes it readable as well.

2015-03-23timers/tick/broadcast-hrtimer: Fix suspicious RCU usage in idle loopPreeti U Murthy1-2/+9
The hrtimer mode of broadcast queues hrtimers in the idle entry path so as to wakeup cpus in deep idle states. The associated call graph is : cpuidle_idle_call() |____ clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER, ....)) |_____tick_broadcast_set_event() |____clockevents_program_event() |____bc_set_next() The hrtimer_{start/cancel} functions call into tracing which uses RCU. But it is not legal to call into RCU in cpuidle because it is one of the quiescent states. Hence protect this region with RCU_NONIDLE which informs RCU that the cpu is momentarily non-idle. As an aside it is helpful to point out that the clock event device that is programmed here is not a per-cpu clock device; it is a pseudo clock device, used by the broadcast framework alone. The per-cpu clock device programming never goes through bc_set_next().

2014-02-07tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcastPreeti U Murthy1-0/+106
On some architectures, in certain CPU deep idle states the local timers stop. An external clock device is used to wakeup these CPUs. The kernel support for the wakeup of these CPUs is provided by the tick broadcast framework by using the external clock device as the wakeup source. However not all implementations of architectures provide such an external clock device. This patch includes support in the broadcast framework to handle the wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle states on such systems by queuing a hrtimer on one of the CPUs, which is meant to handle the wakeup of CPUs in deep idle states. This patchset introduces a pseudo clock device which can be registered by the archs as tick_broadcast_device in the absence of a real external clock device. Once registered, the broadcast framework will work as is for these architectures as long as the archs take care of the BROADCAST_ENTER notification failing for one of the CPUs. This CPU is made the stand by CPU to handle wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle and it *must not enter deep idle states*. The CPU with the earliest wakeup is chosen to be this CPU. Hence this way the stand by CPU dynamically moves around and so does the hrtimer which is queued to trigger at the next earliest wakeup time. This is consistent with the case where an external clock device is present. The smp affinity of this clock device is set to the CPU with the earliest wakeup. This patchset handles the hotplug of the stand by CPU as well by moving the hrtimer on to the CPU handling the CPU_DEAD notification.
