Checking for and processing RCU-nocb deferred wakeup upon user/guest
entry is only relevant when nohz_full runs on the local CPU, otherwise
the periodic tick should take care of it.
Make sure we don't needlessly pollute these fast-paths as a -3%
performance regression on a will-it-scale.per_process_ops has been
reported so far.

RTC drivers used to leave .set_alarm() NULL in order to signal the RTC
device doesn't support alarms. The drivers are now clearing the
RTC_FEATURE_ALARM bit for that purpose in order to keep the rtc_class_ops
structure const. So now, .set_alarm() is set unconditionally and this
possibly causes the alarmtimer code to select an RTC device that doesn't
support alarms.
Test RTC_FEATURE_ALARM instead of relying on ops->set_alarm to determine
whether alarms are available.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The usual updates from the irq departement:
Core changes:
- Provide IRQF_NO_AUTOEN as a flag for request*_irq() so drivers can
be cleaned up which either use a seperate mechanism to prevent
auto-enable at request time or have a racy mechanism which disables
the interrupt right after request.
- Get rid of the last usage of irq_create_identity_mapping() and
remove the interface.
- An overhaul of tasklet_disable().
Most usage sites of tasklet_disable() are in task context and
usually in cleanup, teardown code pathes. tasklet_disable()
spinwaits for a tasklet which is currently executed. That's not
only a problem for PREEMPT_RT where this can lead to a live lock
when the disabling task preempts the softirq thread. It's also
problematic in context of virtualization when the vCPU which runs
the tasklet is scheduled out and the disabling code has to spin
wait until it's scheduled back in.
There are a few code pathes which invoke tasklet_disable() from
non-sleepable context. For these a new disable variant which still
spinwaits is provided which allows to switch tasklet_disable() to a
sleep wait mechanism. For the atomic use cases this does not solve
the live lock issue on PREEMPT_RT. That is mitigated by blocking on
the RT specific softirq lock.
- The PREEMPT_RT specific implementation of softirq processing and
local_bh_disable/enable().
On RT enabled kernels soft interrupt processing happens always in
task context and all interrupt handlers, which are not explicitly
marked to be invoked in hard interrupt context are forced into task
context as well. This allows to protect against softirq processing
with a per CPU lock, which in turn allows to make BH disabled
regions preemptible.
Most of the softirq handling code is still shared. The RT/non-RT
specific differences are addressed with a set of inline functions
which provide the context specific functionality. The
local_bh_disable() / local_bh_enable() mechanism are obviously
seperate.
- The usual set of small improvements and cleanups
Driver changes:
- New drivers for Nuvoton WPCM450 and DT 79rc3243x interrupt
controllers
- Extended functionality for MStar, STM32 and SC7280 irq chips
- Enhanced robustness for ARM GICv3/4.1 drivers

The return value on success (>= 0) is overwritten by the return value of
put_old_timex32(). That works correct in the fault case, but is wrong for
the success case where put_old_timex32() returns 0.
Just check the return value of put_old_timex32() and return -EFAULT in case
it is not zero.

The broadcast device is switched to oneshot mode when the system switches
to oneshot mode. If a broadcast clock event device is registered after the
system switched to oneshot mode, it will stay in periodic mode forever.

System time snapshots are not conveying information about the current
clocksource which was used, but callers like the PTP KVM guest
implementation have the requirement to evaluate the clocksource type to
select the appropriate mechanism.
Introduce a clocksource id field in struct clocksource which is by default
set to CSID_GENERIC (0). Clocksource implementations can set that field to
a value which allows to identify the clocksource.
Store the clocksource id of the current clocksource in the
system_time_snapshot so callers can evaluate which clocksource was used to
take the snapshot and act accordingly.

On RT a task which has soft interrupts disabled can block on a lock and
schedule out to idle while soft interrupts are pending. This triggers the
warning in the NOHZ idle code which complains about going idle with pending
soft interrupts. But as the task is blocked soft interrupt processing is
temporarily blocked as well which means that such a warning is a false
positive.
To prevent that check the per CPU state which indicates that a scheduled
out task has soft interrupts disabled.

bases. __hrtimer_get_next_event() does not update
cpu_base::[softirq_]_expires_next to preserve reprogramming logic. That
needs to be done at the callsites.
hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates cpu_base::softirq_expires_next only when
the first expiring timer is a softirq timer and the soft interrupt is not
activated. That's wrong because cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is left
stale when the first expiring timer of all bases is a timer which expires
in hard interrupt context. hrtimer_interrupt() does never update
cpu_base::softirq_expires_next which is wrong too.
That becomes a problem when clock_settime() sets CLOCK_REALTIME forward and
the first soft expiring timer is in the CLOCK_REALTIME_SOFT base. Setting
CLOCK_REALTIME forward moves the clock MONOTONIC based expiry time of that
timer before the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next.
cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is cached to make the check for raising the
soft interrupt fast. In the above case the soft interrupt won't be raised
until clock monotonic reaches the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next
value. That's incorrect, but what's worse it that if the softirq timer
becomes the first expiring timer of all clock bases after the hard expiry
timer has been handled the reprogramming of the clockevent from
hrtimer_interrupt() will result in an interrupt storm. That happens because
the reprogramming does not use cpu_base::softirq_expires_next, it uses
__hrtimer_get_next_event() which returns the actual expiry time. Once clock
MONOTONIC reaches cpu_base::softirq_expires_next the soft interrupt is
raised and the storm subsides.
Change the logic in hrtimer_force_reprogram() to evaluate the soft and hard
bases seperately, update softirq_expires_next and handle the case when a
soft expiring timer is the first of all bases by comparing the expiry times
and updating the required cpu base fields. Split this functionality into a
separate function to be able to use it in hrtimer_interrupt() as well
without copy paste.

The bug fixed by commit e3fab2f3de081e98 ("ntp: Fix RTC synchronization on

happen anytime, even while the system is partially suspended.
On systems where the RTC is connected to an I2C bus, the I2C bus controller
may already or still be suspended, triggering a WARNING during suspend or
resume from s2ram:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 124 at drivers/i2c/i2c-core.h:54 __i2c_transfer+0x634/0x680

can_stop_idle_tick() checks whether the do_timer() duty has been taken over
by a CPU on boot. That's silly because the boot CPU always takes over with
the initial clockevent device.
But even if no CPU would have installed a clockevent and taken over the
duty then the question whether the tick on the current CPU can be stopped
or not is moot. In that case the current CPU would have no clockevent
either, so there would be nothing to keep ticking.
Remove it.

tick_handover_do_timer() which is invoked when a CPU is unplugged has a
check for cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask) when it tries to hand over the
tick update duty.
Checking the result of cpumask_first() there is pointless because if the
online mask is empty at this point, then this would be the last CPU in the
system going offline, which is impossible. There is always at least one CPU
remaining. If online mask would be really empty then the timer duty would
be the least of the resulting problems.
Remove the well meant check simply because it is pointless and confusing.

The quick check in tick_do_update_jiffies64() whether jiffies need to be
updated is not really correct under all circumstances and on all
architectures, especially not on 32bit systems.
The quick check does:
if (now < READ_ONCE(tick_next_period))
return;
and the counterpart in the update is:
WRITE_ONCE(tick_next_period, next_update_time);
This has two problems:
1) On weakly ordered architectures there is no guarantee that the stores
before the WRITE_ONCE() are visible which means that other CPUs can
operate on a stale jiffies value.
2) On 32bit the store of tick_next_period which is an u64 is split into
two 32bit stores. If the first 32bit store advances tick_next_period
far out and the second 32bit store is delayed (virt, NMI ...) then
jiffies will become stale until the second 32bit store happens.
Address this by seperating the handling for 32bit and 64bit.
On 64bit problem #1 is addressed by replacing READ_ONCE() / WRITE_ONCE()
with smp_load_acquire() / smp_store_release().
On 32bit problem #2 is addressed by protecting the quick check with the
jiffies sequence counter. The load and stores can be plain because the
sequence count mechanics provides the required barriers already.

The code for the legacy RTC and the RTC class based update are pretty much
the same. Consolidate the common parts into one function and just invoke
the actual setter functions.
For RTC class based devices the update code checks whether the offset is
valid for the device, which is usually not the case for the first
invocation. If it's not the same it stores the correct offset and lets the
caller try again. That's not much different from the previous approach
where the first invocation had a pretty low probability to actually hit the
allowed window.

The current RTC set_offset_nsec value is not really intuitive to
understand.
tsched twrite(t2.tv_sec - 1) t2 (seconds increment)
The offset is calculated from twrite based on the assumption that t2 -
twrite == 1s. That means for the MC146818 RTC the offset needs to be
negative so that the write happens 500ms before t2.
It's easier to understand when the whole calculation is based on t2. That
avoids negative offsets and the meaning is obvious:
t2 - twrite: The time defined by the chip when seconds increment
after the write.
twrite - tsched: The time for the transport to the point where the chip
is updated.
==> set_offset_nsec = t2 - tsched
ttransport = twrite - tsched
tRTCinc = t2 - twrite
==> set_offset_nsec = ttransport + tRTCinc
tRTCinc is a chip property and can be obtained from the data sheet.
ttransport depends on how the RTC is connected. It is close to 0 for
directly accessible RTCs. For RTCs behind a slow bus, e.g. i2c, it's the
time required to send the update over the bus. This can be estimated or
even calibrated, but that's a different problem.
Adjust the implementation and update comments accordingly.

Miroslav reported that the periodic RTC synchronization in the NTP code
fails more often than not to hit the specified update window.
The reason is that the code uses delayed_work to schedule the update which
needs to be in thread context as the underlying RTC might be connected via
a slow bus, e.g. I2C. In the update function it verifies whether the
current time is correct vs. the requirements of the underlying RTC.
But delayed_work is using the timer wheel for scheduling which is
inaccurate by design. Depending on the distance to the expiry the wheel
gets less granular to allow batching and to avoid the cascading of the
original timer wheel. See 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading
wheel") and the code for further details.
The code already deals with this by splitting the 660 seconds period into a
long 659 seconds timer and then retrying with a smaller delta.
But looking at the actual granularities of the timer wheel (which depend on
the HZ configuration) the 659 seconds timer ends up in an outer wheel level
and is affected by a worst case granularity of:
HZ Granularity
1000 32s
250 16s
100 40s
So the initial timer can be already off by max 12.5% which is not a big
issue as the period of the sync is defined as ~11 minutes.
The fine grained second attempt schedules to the desired update point with
a timer expiring less than a second from now. Depending on the actual delta
and the HZ setting even the second attempt can end up in outer wheel levels
which have a large enough granularity to make the correctness check fail.
As this is a fundamental property of the timer wheel there is no way to
make this more accurate short of iterating in one jiffies steps towards the
update point.
Switch it to an hrtimer instead which schedules the actual update work. The
hrtimer will expire precisely (max 1 jiffie delay when high resolution
timers are not available). The actual scheduling delay of the work is the
same as before.
The update is triggered from do_adjtimex() which is a bit racy but not much
more racy than it was before:
if (ntp_synced())
queue_delayed_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &sync_work, 0);
which is racy when the work is currently executed and has not managed to
reschedule itself.
This becomes now:
if (ntp_synced() && !hrtimer_is_queued(&sync_hrtimer))
queue_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &sync_work, 0);
which is racy when the hrtimer has expired and the work is currently
executed and has not yet managed to rearm the hrtimer.
Not a big problem as it just schedules work for nothing.
The new implementation has a safe guard in place to catch the case where
the hrtimer is queued on entry to the work function and avoids an extra
update attempt of the RTC that way.

Get rid of the __call_single_node union and clean up the API a little
to avoid external code relying on the structure layout as much.

The variable tick_period is initialized to NSEC_PER_TICK / HZ during boot
and never updated again.
If NSEC_PER_TICK is not an integer multiple of HZ this computation is less
accurate than TICK_NSEC which has proper rounding in place.
Aside of the inaccuracy there is no reason for having this variable at
all. It's just a pointless indirection and all usage sites can just use the
TICK_NSEC constant.

If jiffies are up to date already (caller lost the race against another
CPU) there is no point to change the sequence count. Doing that just forces
other CPUs into the seqcount retry loop in tick_nohz_next_event() for
nothing.
Just bail out early.

No point in doing calculations.
tick_next_period = last_jiffies_update + tick_period
Just check whether now is before tick_next_period to figure out whether
jiffies need an update.
Add a comment why the intentional data race in the quick check is safe or
not so safe in a 32bit corner case and why we don't worry about it.
