2014-11-21time: Provide y2038 safe timekeeping_inject_sleeptime() replacementpang.xunlei1-1/+12
As part of addressing "y2038 problem" for in-kernel uses, this patch adds timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() using timespec64. After this patch, timekeeping_inject_sleeptime() is deprecated and all its call sites will be fixed using the new interface, after that it can be removed. NOTE: timekeeping_inject_sleeptime() is safe actually, but we want to eliminate timespec eventually, so comes this patch.

2014-11-21time: Provide y2038 safe do_settimeofday() replacementpang.xunlei1-1/+20
The kernel uses 32-bit signed value(time_t) for seconds elapsed 1970-01-01:00:00:00, thus it will overflow at 2038-01-19 03:14:08 on 32-bit systems. This is widely known as the y2038 problem. As part of addressing "y2038 problem" for in-kernel uses, this patch adds safe do_settimeofday64() using timespec64. After this patch, do_settimeofday() is deprecated and all its call sites will be fixed using do_settimeofday64(), after that it can be removed.

2014-10-29timekeeping: Provide y2038 safe accessor to the seconds portion of CLOCK_REALTIMEHeena Sirwani1-0/+1
ktime_get_real_seconds() is the replacement function for get_seconds() returning the seconds portion of CLOCK_REALTIME in a time64_t. For 64bit the function is equivivalent to get_seconds(), but for 32bit it protects the readout with the timekeeper sequence count. This is required because 32-bit machines cannot access 64-bit tk->xtime_sec variable atomically.

2014-10-29timekeeping: Provide fast accessor to the seconds part of CLOCK_MONOTONICHeena Sirwani1-0/+1
This is the counterpart to get_seconds() based on CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The use case for this interface are kernel internal coarse grained timestamps which do neither require the nanoseconds fraction of current time nor the CLOCK_REALTIME properties. Such timestamps can currently only retrieved by calling ktime_get_ts64() and using the tv_sec field of the returned timespec64. That's inefficient as it involves the read of the clocksource, math operations and must be protected by the timekeeper sequence counter. To avoid the sequence counter protection we restrict the return value to unsigned 32bit on 32bit machines. This covers ~136 years of uptime and therefor an overflow is not expected to hit anytime soon. To avoid math in the function we calculate the current seconds portion of CLOCK_MONOTONIC when the timekeeper gets updated in tk_update_ktime_data() similar to the CLOCK_REALTIME counterpart xtime_sec.

2014-07-23timekeeping: Provide fast and NMI safe access to CLOCK_MONOTONICThomas Gleixner1-0/+2
Tracers want a correlated time between the kernel instrumentation and user space. We really do not want to export sched_clock() to user space, so we need to provide something sensible for this. Using separate data structures with an non blocking sequence count based update mechanism allows us to do that. The data structure required for the readout has a sequence counter and two copies of the timekeeping data. On the update side: smp_wmb(); tkf->seq++; smp_wmb(); update(tkf->base[0], tk); smp_wmb(); tkf->seq++; smp_wmb(); update(tkf->base[1], tk); On the reader side: do { seq = tkf->seq; smp_rmb(); idx = seq & 0x01; now = now(tkf->base[idx]); smp_rmb(); } while (seq != tkf->seq) So if a NMI hits the update of base[0] it will use base[1] which is still consistent, but this timestamp is not guaranteed to be monotonic across an update. The timestamp is calculated by: now = base_mono + clock_delta * slope So if the update lowers the slope, readers who are forced to the not yet updated second array are still using the old steeper slope. tmono ^ | o n | o n | u | o |o |12345678---> reader order o = old slope u = update n = new slope So reader 6 will observe time going backwards versus reader 5. While other CPUs are likely to be able observe that, the only way for a CPU local observation is when an NMI hits in the middle of the update. Timestamps taken from that NMI context might be ahead of the following timestamps. Callers need to be aware of that and deal with it. V2: Got rid of clock monotonic raw and reorganized the data structures. Folded in the barrier fix from Mathieu.
