2012-04-10clockevents: tTack broadcast device mode change in ↵Suresh Siddha1-1/+3
tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot() In the commit 77b0d60c5adf39c74039e2142a1d3cd1e4d53799, "clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not needed", we were bailing out too quickly in tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot(), with out tracking the broadcast device mode change to 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT'. This breaks the platforms which need broadcast device oneshot services during deep idle states. tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() thinks that it is in periodic mode and fails to take proper decisions based on the CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_[ENTER, EXIT] notifications during deep idle entry/exit. Fix this by tracking the broadcast device mode as 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT', before leaving the broadcast HW device in shutdown mode if there are no active requests for the moment.

2012-04-06nohz: Fix stale jiffies update in tick_nohz_restart()Neal Cardwell1-2/+2
Fix tick_nohz_restart() to not use a stale ktime_t "now" value when calling tick_do_update_jiffies64(now). If we reach this point in the loop it means that we crossed a tick boundary since we grabbed the "now" timestamp, so at this point "now" refers to a time in the old jiffy, so using the old value for "now" is incorrect, and is likely to give us a stale jiffies value. In particular, the first time through the loop the tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) call is always a no-op, since the caller, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), will have already called tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) with that "now" value. Note that tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() already uses the correct approach: when we notice we cross a jiffy boundary, grab a new timestamp with ktime_get(), and *then* update jiffies.

2012-03-22ntp: Fix leap-second hrtimer livelockJohn Stultz2-101/+47
Since commit 7dffa3c673fbcf835cd7be80bb4aec8ad3f51168 the ntp subsystem has used an hrtimer for triggering the leapsecond adjustment. However, this can cause a potential livelock. Thomas diagnosed this as the following pattern: CPU 0 CPU 1 do_adjtimex() spin_lock_irq(&ntp_lock); process_adjtimex_modes(); timer_interrupt() process_adj_status(); do_timer() ntp_start_leap_timer(); write_lock(&xtime_lock); hrtimer_start(); update_wall_time(); hrtimer_reprogram(); ntp_tick_length() tick_program_event() spin_lock(&ntp_lock); clockevents_program_event() ktime_get() seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock); This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond processing in the second_overflow() function. The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary, (ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ) after the leap second instead of possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic). This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core.

2012-02-15nohz: Remove ts->Einidle checks before restarting the tickFrederic Weisbecker1-5/+6
ts->inidle is set by tick_nohz_idle_enter() and unset by tick_nohz_idle_exit(). However these two calls are assumed to be always paired. This means that by the time we call tick_nohz_idle_exit(), ts->inidle is supposed to be always set to 1. Remove the checks for ts->inidle in tick_nohz_idle_exit(). This simplifies a bit the code and improves its debuggability (ie: ensure the call is paired with a tick_nohz_idle_enter() call).

2012-02-15clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not neededSuresh Siddha1-0/+4
Platforms with Always Running APIC Timer doesn't use the broadcast timer but the kernel is leaving the broadcast timer (HPET in this case) in oneshot mode. On these platforms, before the switch to oneshot mode, broadcast device is actually in shutdown mode. Code checks for empty tick_broadcast_mask and avoids going into the periodic mode. During switch to oneshot mode, add the same tick_broadcast_mask checks in the tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot() and avoid the broadcast device going into the oneshot mode.

2012-02-03Input: add infrastructure for selecting clockid for event time stampsJohn Stultz1-0/+2
As noted by Arve and others, since wall time can jump backwards, it is difficult to use for input because one cannot determine if one event occurred before another or for how long a key was pressed. However, the timestamp field is part of the kernel ABI, and cannot be changed without possibly breaking existing users. This patch adds a new IOCTL that allows a clockid to be set in the evdev_client struct that will specify which time base to use for event timestamps (ie: CLOCK_MONOTONIC instead of CLOCK_REALTIME). For now we only support CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME, but in the future we could support other clockids if appropriate. The default remains CLOCK_REALTIME, so we don't change the ABI.

2011-12-11nohz: Remove tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() / tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu()Frederic Weisbecker1-7/+8
Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would needlessly process any RCU job. Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.

2011-12-11nohz: Allow rcu extended quiescent state handling seperately from tick stopFrederic Weisbecker1-12/+13
It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after the tick is stopped. To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs: tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu(). If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit(). Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly: - rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put to sleep. - rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken up.

2011-12-11nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logicFrederic Weisbecker1-36/+57
The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two places: - From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode - From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in case the irq changed some internal state that requires this action. There are only few minor differences between both that are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended quiescent state from idle loop entry only. Split this function into: - tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU extended quiescent state. - tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called). To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed into tick_nohz_idle_exit(). This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle loop.

2011-12-11rcu: Track idleness independent of idle tasksPaul E. McKenney1-3/+3
Earlier versions of RCU used the scheduling-clock tick to detect idleness by checking for the idle task, but handled idleness differently for CONFIG_NO_HZ=y. But there are now a number of uses of RCU read-side critical sections in the idle task, for example, for tracing. A more fine-grained detection of idleness is therefore required. This commit presses the old dyntick-idle code into full-time service, so that rcu_idle_enter(), previously known as rcu_enter_nohz(), is always invoked at the beginning of an idle loop iteration. Similarly, rcu_idle_exit(), previously known as rcu_exit_nohz(), is always invoked at the end of an idle-loop iteration. This allows the idle task to use RCU everywhere except between consecutive rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() calls, in turn allowing architecture maintainers to specify exactly where in the idle loop that RCU may be used. Because some of the userspace upcall uses can result in what looks to RCU like half of an interrupt, it is not possible to expect that the irq_enter() and irq_exit() hooks will give exact counts. This patch therefore expands the ->dynticks_nesting counter to 64 bits and uses two separate bitfields to count process/idle transitions and interrupt entry/exit transitions. It is presumed that userspace upcalls do not happen in the idle loop or from usermode execution (though usermode might do a system call that results in an upcall). The counter is hard-reset on each process/idle transition, which avoids the interrupt entry/exit error from accumulating. Overflow is avoided by the 64-bitness of the ->dyntick_nesting counter. This commit also adds warnings if a non-idle task asks RCU to enter idle state (and these checks will need some adjustment before applying Frederic's OS-jitter patches (http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/10/7/246). In addition, validation of ->dynticks and ->dynticks_nesting is added. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-12-06sched, nohz: Track nr_busy_cpus in the sched_group_powerSuresh Siddha1-0/+9
Introduce nr_busy_cpus in the struct sched_group_power [Not in sched_group because sched groups are duplicated for the SD_OVERLAP scheduler domain] and for each cpu that enters and exits idle, this parameter will be updated in each scheduler group of the scheduler domain that this cpu belongs to. To avoid the frequent update of this state as the cpu enters and exits idle, the update of the stat during idle exit is delayed to the first timer tick that happens after the cpu becomes busy. This is done using NOHZ_IDLE flag in the struct rq's nohz_flags.
