<content type='text'>
This file isn't really shared, it's only used on the kernel side,
not on the user side. Remove the include from the user-side and
move the file to a better place.

While at it, rename it to time-internal.h, it's not really just
timers but all kinds of things related to timekeeping.

This makes the code clearer and lets the time travel patch have
the actual time used for these functions in just one place.

There are some unused functions, and some others that have
unused arguments; clean up the timer code a bit.

os_timer_one_shot() gets passed a value "unsigned long delta",
so must not have an "int ticks" as that actually ends up being
-1, and thus triggering a timer over and over again.

UML is using an obsolete itimer call for
all timers and "polls" for kernel space timer firing
in its userspace portion resulting in a long list
of bugs and incorrect behaviour(s). It also uses
ITIMER_VIRTUAL for its timer which results in the
timer being dependent on it running and the cpu
load.

This patch fixes this by moving to posix high resolution
timers firing off CLOCK_MONOTONIC and relaying the timer
correctly to the UML userspace.

Fixes:
 - crashes when hosts suspends/resumes
 - broken userspace timers - effecive ~40Hz instead
   of what they should be. Note - this modifies skas behavior
   by no longer setting an itimer per clone(). Timer events
   are relayed instead.
 - kernel network packet scheduling disciplines
 - tcp behaviour especially under load
 - various timer related corner cases

Finally, overall responsiveness of userspace is better.

<title>nohz: Rename CONFIG_NO_HZ to CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3451d0243c3cdfd729b36f9684a14659d4895ca3</id>
<content type='text'>
We are planning to convert the dynticks Kconfig options layout
into a choice menu. The user must be able to easily pick
any of the following implementations: constant periodic tick,
idle dynticks, full dynticks.

As this implies a mutual exclusion, the two dynticks implementions
need to converge on the selection of a common Kconfig option in order
to ease the sharing of a common infrastructure.

It would thus seem pretty natural to reuse CONFIG_NO_HZ to
that end. It already implements all the idle dynticks code
and the full dynticks depends on all that code for now.
So ideally the choice menu would propose CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED then both would select CONFIG_NO_HZ.

On the other hand we want to stay backward compatible: if
CONFIG_NO_HZ is set in an older config file, we want to
enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE by default.

But we can't afford both at the same time or we run into
a circular dependency:

1) CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and CONFIG_NO_HZ_EXTENDED both select
   CONFIG_NO_HZ
2) If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, we default to CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE

We might be able to support that from Kconfig/Kbuild but it
may not be wise to introduce such a confusing behaviour.

So to solve this, create a new CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON option
which gathers the common code between idle and full dynticks
(that common code for now is simply the idle dynticks code)
and select it from their referring Kconfig.

Then we'll later create CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE and map CONFIG_NO_HZ
to it for backward compatibility.

  arch/um/os-Linux/time.c:117:3: error: too few arguments to function 'alarm_handler'
  arch/um/os-Linux/internal.h:1:6: note: declared here

The error was introduced by commit d3c1cfcd ("um: pass siginfo to guest
process") in 3.6-rc1.

UML guest processes now get correct siginfo_t for SIGTRAP, SIGFPE,
SIGILL and SIGBUS. Specifically, si_addr and si_code are now correct
where previously they were si_addr = NULL and si_code = 128.
