John Stultz d65670a78c clocksource: Avoid selecting mult values that might overflow when adjusted
For some frequencies, the clocks_calc_mult_shift() function will
unfortunately select mult values very close to 0xffffffff.  This
has the potential to overflow when NTP adjusts the clock, adding
to the mult value.

This patch adds a clocksource.maxadj value, which provides
an approximation of an 11% adjustment(NTP limits adjustments to
500ppm and the tick adjustment is limited to 10%), which could
be made to the clocksource.mult value. This is then used to both
check that the current mult value won't overflow/underflow, as
well as warning us if the timekeeping_adjust() code pushes over
that 11% boundary.

v2: Fix max_adjustment calculation, and improve WARN_ONCE
messages.

v3: Don't warn before maxadj has actually been set

Thomas Gleixner b5199515c2 clocksource: Make watchdog robust vs. interruption
The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been
observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC.

The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt
handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the
TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the
unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled
region to avoid that.

John Stultz d7e81c269d clocksource: Add clocksource_register_hz/khz interface
How to pick good mult/shift pairs has always been difficult to
describe to folks writing clocksource drivers, since it requires
careful tradeoffs in adjustment accuracy vs overflow limits.

Now, with the clocks_calc_mult_shift function, its much
easier. However, not many clocksources have converted to using that
function, and there is still the issue of the max interval length
assumption being made by each clocksource driver independently.

So this patch simplifies the registration process by having
clocksources be registered with a hz/khz value and the registration
function taking care of setting mult/shift.

This should take most of the confusion out of writing a clocksource
driver.

Additionally it also keeps the shift size tradeoff (more accuracy vs
longer possible nohz times) centralized so the timekeeping core can
keep track of the assumptions being made.

Magnus Damm c54a42b19f clocksource: add suspend callback
Add a clocksource suspend callback.  This callback can be used by the
clocksource driver to shutdown and perform any kind of late suspend
activities even though the clocksource driver itself is a non-sysdev
driver.

One example where this is useful is to fix the sh_cmt.c platform driver
that today suspends using the platform bus and shuts down the clocksource
too early.

With this callback in place the sh_cmt driver will suspend using the
clocksource and clockevent hooks and leave the platform device pm
callbacks unused.

Jon Hunter 98962465ed nohz: Prevent clocksource wrapping during idle
The dynamic tick allows the kernel to sleep for periods longer than a
single tick, but it does not limit the sleep time currently. In the
worst case the kernel could sleep longer than the wrap around time of
the time keeping clock source which would result in losing track of
time.

Prevent this by limiting it to the safe maximum sleep time of the
current time keeping clock source. The value is calculated when the
clock source is registered.

Thomas Gleixner 7d2f944a2b clocksource: Provide a generic mult/shift factor calculation
MIPS has two functions to calculcate the mult/shift factors for clock
sources and clock events at run time. ARM needs such functions as
well.

Implement a function which calculates the mult/shift factors based on
the frequencies to which and from which is converted. The function
also has a parameter to specify the minimum conversion range in
seconds. This range is guaranteed not to produce a 64bit overflow when
a value is multiplied with the calculated mult factor. The larger the
conversion range the less becomes the conversion accuracy.

Provide two inline wrappers which handle clock events and clock
sources. For clock events the "from" frequency is nano seconds per
second which corresponds to 1GHz and "to" is the device frequency. For
clock sources "from" is the device frequency and "to" is nano seconds
per second.

Thomas Gleixner 7285dd7fd3 clocksource: Resolve cpu hotplug dead lock with TSC unstable
Martin Schwidefsky analyzed it:
To register a clocksource the clocksource_mutex is acquired and if
necessary timekeeping_notify is called to install the clocksource as
the timekeeper clock. timekeeping_notify uses stop_machine which needs
to take cpu_add_remove_lock mutex.
Starting a new cpu is done with the cpu_add_remove_lock mutex held.
native_cpu_up checks the tsc of the new cpu and if the tsc is no good
clocksource_change_rating is called. Which needs the clocksource_mutex
and the deadlock is complete.

The solution is to replace the TSC via the clocksource watchdog
mechanism. Mark the TSC as unstable and schedule the watchdog work so
it gets removed in the watchdog thread context.

Martin Schwidefsky f1b82746c1 clocksource: Cleanup clocksource selection
If a non high-resolution clocksource is first set as override clock
and then registered it becomes active even if the system is in one-shot
mode. Move the override check from sysfs_override_clocksource to the
clocksource selection. That fixes the bug and simplifies the code. The
check in clocksource_register for double registration of the same
clocksource is removed without replacement.

To find the initial clocksource a new weak function in jiffies.c is
defined that returns the jiffies clocksource. The architecture code
can then override the weak function with a more suitable clocksource,
e.g. the TOD clock on s390.

Magnus Damm a25cbd045a clocksource: setup mult_orig in clocksource_enable()
Setup clocksource mult_orig in clocksource_enable().

Clocksource drivers can save power by using keeping the
device clock disabled while the clocksource is unused.

In practice this means that the enable() and disable()
callbacks perform clk_enable() and clk_disable().

The enable() callback may also use clk_get_rate() to get
the clock rate from the clock framework. This information
can then be used to calculate the shift and mult variables.

Currently the mult_orig variable is setup from mult at
registration time only. This is conflicting with the above
case since the clock is disabled and the mult variable is
not yet calculated at the time of registration.

Moving the mult_orig setup code to clocksource_enable()
allows us to both handle the common case with no enable()
callback and the mult-changed-after-enable() case.

Magnus Damm 4614e6adaf clocksource: add enable() and disable() callbacks
Add enable() and disable() callbacks for clocksources.

This allows us to put unused clocksources in power save mode.  The
functions clocksource_enable() and clocksource_disable() wrap the
callbacks and are inserted in the timekeeping code to enable before use
and disable after switching to a new clocksource.

Patrick Ohly a038a353c3 clocksource: allow usage independent of timekeeping.c
So far struct clocksource acted as the interface between time/timekeeping.c
and hardware. This patch generalizes the concept so that a similar
interface can also be used in other contexts. For that it introduces
new structures and related functions *without* touching the existing
struct clocksource.

The reasons for adding these new structures to clocksource.[ch] are
* the APIs are clearly related
* struct clocksource could be cleaned up to use the new structs
* avoids proliferation of files with similar names (timesource.h?
  timecounter.h?)

As outlined in the discussion with John Stultz, this patch adds
* struct cyclecounter: stateless API to hardware which counts clock cycles
* struct timecounter: stateful utility code built on a cyclecounter which
  provides a nanosecond counter
* only the function to read the nanosecond counter; deltas are used internally
  and not exposed to users of timecounter

The code does no locking of the shared state. It must be called at least
as often as the cycle counter wraps around to detect these wrap arounds.
Both is the responsibility of the timecounter user.

John Stultz 2d42244ae7 clocksource: introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
In talking with Josip Loncaric, and his work on clock synchronization (see
btime.sf.net), he mentioned that for really close synchronization, it is
useful to have access to "hardware time", that is a notion of time that is
not in any way adjusted by the clock slewing done to keep close time sync.

Part of the issue is if we are using the kernel's ntp adjusted
representation of time in order to measure how we should correct time, we
can run into what Paul McKenney aptly described as "Painting a road using
the lines we're painting as the guide".

I had been thinking of a similar problem, and was trying to come up with a
way to give users access to a purely hardware based time representation
that avoided users having to know the underlying frequency and mask values
needed to deal with the wide variety of possible underlying hardware
counters.

My solution is to introduce CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW.  This exposes a
nanosecond based time value, that increments starting at bootup and has no
frequency adjustments made to it what so ever.

The time is accessed from userspace via the posix_clock_gettime() syscall,
passing CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW as the clock_id.

John Stultz 1aa5dfb751 clocksource: keep track of original clocksource frequency
The clocksource frequency is represented by
clocksource->mult/2^(clocksource->shift).  Currently, when NTP makes
adjustments to the clock frequency, they are made directly to the mult
value.

This has the drawback that once changed, we cannot know what the orignal
mult value was, or how much adjustment has been applied.

This property causes problems in calculating proper ntp intervals when
switching back and forth between clocksources.

This patch separates the current mult value into a mult and mult_orig
pair.  The mult_orig value stays constant, while the ntp clocksource
adjustments are done only to the mult value.

This allows for correct ntp interval calculation and additionally lays the
groundwork for a new notion of time, what I'm calling the monotonic-raw
time, which is introduced in a following patch.

Remove the leap second handling from second_overflow(), which doesn't have to

On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to
include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user
calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr).

This patch adds a hook for architectures that set
CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also
updatee their copy in the vdso.

Thomas Gleixner b52f52a093 clocksource: fix resume logic
We need to make sure that the clocksources are resumed, when timekeeping is
resumed.  The current resume logic does not guarantee this.

Add a resume function pointer to the clocksource struct, so clocksource
drivers which need to reinitialize the clocksource can provide a resume
function.

Add a resume function, which calls the maybe available clocksource resume
functions and resets the watchdog function, so a stable TSC can be used
accross suspend/resume.

struct clocksource is a critical data structure.

Most of its fields are read only, some of them are heavily modified at each

It makes sense to separate those fields and make sure they all share one
