2014-02-19x86, tsc: Fallback to normal calibration if fast MSR calibration failsThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
If we cannot calibrate TSC via MSR based calibration try_msr_calibrate_tsc() stores zero to fast_calibrate and returns that to the caller. This value gets then propagated further to clockevents code resulting division by zero oops like the one below: divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G W 3.13.0+ #47 task: ffff880075508000 ti: ffff880075506000 task.ti: ffff880075506000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810aec14>] [<ffffffff810aec14>] clockevents_config.part.3+0x24/0xa0 RSP: 0000:ffff880075507e58 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffffffffffffffff RBX: ffff880079c0cd80 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffffffffffffffff RBP: ffff880075507e70 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 00000000000000be R10: 00000000000000bd R11: 0000000000000003 R12: 000000000000b008 R13: 0000000000000008 R14: 000000000000b010 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880079c00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: ffff880079fff000 CR3: 0000000001c0b000 CR4: 00000000001006f0 Stack: ffff880079c0cd80 000000000000b008 0000000000000008 ffff880075507e88 ffffffff810aecb0 ffff880079c0cd80 ffff880075507e98 ffffffff81030168 ffff880075507ed8 ffffffff81d1104f 00000000000000c3 0000000000000000 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810aecb0>] clockevents_config_and_register+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff81030168>] setup_APIC_timer+0xc8/0xd0 [<ffffffff81d1104f>] setup_boot_APIC_clock+0x4cc/0x4d8 [<ffffffff81d0f5de>] native_smp_prepare_cpus+0x3dd/0x3f0 [<ffffffff81d02ee9>] kernel_init_freeable+0xc3/0x205 [<ffffffff8177c910>] ? rest_init+0x90/0x90 [<ffffffff8177c91e>] kernel_init+0xe/0x120 [<ffffffff8178deec>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff8177c910>] ? rest_init+0x90/0x90 Prevent this from happening by: 1) Modifying try_msr_calibrate_tsc() to return calibration value or zero if it fails. 2) Check this return value in native_calibrate_tsc() and in case of zero fallback to use normal non-MSR based calibration.

2014-01-15x86, tsc: Add static (MSR) TSC calibration on Intel Atom SoCsBin Gao1-0/+3
On SoCs that have the calibration MSRs available, either there is no PIT, HPET or PMTIMER to calibrate against, or the PIT/HPET/PMTIMER is driven from the same clock as the TSC, so calibration is redundant and just slows down the boot. TSC rate is caculated by this formula: <maximum core-clock to bus-clock ratio> * <maximum resolved frequency> The ratio and the resolved frequency ID can be obtained from MSR. See Intel 64 and IA-32 System Programming Guid section 16.12 and 30.11.5 for details. Signed-off-by: Bin Gao <bin.gao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H.

2013-07-23perf/x86: Add ability to calculate TSC from perf sample timestampsAdrian Hunter1-0/+1
For modern CPUs, perf clock is directly related to TSC. TSC can be calculated from perf clock and vice versa using a simple calculation. Two of the three componenets of that calculation are already exported in struct perf_event_mmap_page. This patch exports the third.

2012-03-20x86: kvmclock: abstract save/restore sched_clock_stateMarcelo Tosatti1-2/+2
Upon resume from hibernation, CPU 0's hvclock area contains the old values for system_time and tsc_timestamp. It is necessary for the hypervisor to update these values with uptodate ones before the CPU uses them. Abstract TSC's save/restore sched_clock_state functions and use restore_state to write to KVM_SYSTEM_TIME MSR, forcing an update. Also move restore_sched_clock_state before __restore_processor_state, since the later calls CONFIG_LOCK_STAT's lockstat_clock (also for TSC). Thanks to Igor Mammedov for tracking it down. Fixes suspend-to-disk with kvmclock. Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
2011-12-05x86, tsc: Skip TSC synchronization checks for tsc=reliableSuresh Siddha1-0/+2
tsc=reliable boot parameter is supposed to skip all the TSC stablility checks during boot time. On a 8-socket system where we want to run an experiment with the "tsc=reliable" boot option, TSC synchronization checks are not getting skipped and marking the TSC as not stable. Check for tsc_clocksource_reliable (which is set via tsc=reliable or for platforms supporting synthetic TSC_RELIABLE feature bit etc) and when set, skip the TSC synchronization tests during boot.

2011-05-24x86-64: Move vread_tsc into a new file with sensible optionsAndy Lutomirski1-0/+4
vread_tsc is short and hot, and it's userspace code so the usual reasons to enable -pg and turn off sibling calls don't apply. (OK, turning off sibling calls has no effect. But it might someday...) As an added benefit, tsc.c is profilable now. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@mit.edu> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: "David S.

2010-08-20x86, tsc, sched: Recompute cyc2ns_offset's during resume from sleep statesSuresh Siddha1-0/+2
TSC's get reset after suspend/resume (even on cpu's with invariant TSC which runs at a constant rate across ACPI P-, C- and T-states). And in some systems BIOS seem to reinit TSC to arbitrary large value (still sync'd across cpu's) during resume. This leads to a scenario of scheduler rq->clock (sched_clock_cpu()) less than rq->age_stamp (introduced in 2.6.32). This leads to a big value returned by scale_rt_power() and the resulting big group power set by the update_group_power() is causing improper load balancing between busy and idle cpu's after suspend/resume. This resulted in multi-threaded workloads (like kernel-compilation) go slower after suspend/resume cycle on core i5 laptops. Fix this by recomputing cyc2ns_offset's during resume, so that sched_clock() continues from the point where it was left off during suspend.

2009-08-31x86: Move tsc_calibration to x86_init_opsThomas Gleixner1-1/+2
TSC calibration is modified by the vmware hypervisor and paravirt by separate means. Moorestown wants to add its own calibration routine as well. So make calibrate_tsc a proper x86_init_ops function and override it by paravirt or by the early setup of the vmware hypervisor. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2008-11-08sched: improve sched_clock() performanceIngo Molnar1-1/+7
in scheduler-intense workloads native_read_tsc() overhead accounts for 20% of the system overhead: 659567 system_call 41222.9375 686796 schedule 435.7843 718382 __switch_to 665.1685 823875 switch_mm 4526.7857 1883122 native_read_tsc 55385.9412 9761990 total 2.8468 this is large part due to the rdtsc_barrier() that is done before and after reading the TSC. But sched_clock() is not a precise clock in the GTOD sense, using such barriers is completely pointless. So remove the barriers and only use them in vget_cycles(). This improves lat_ctx performance by about 5%. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
