- Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
implementation.
S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the counter
read function when time namespace support is enabled. Adding the pointer
is a NOOP for all other architectures because the compiler is supposed
to optimize that out when it is unused in the architecture specific
inline. The change also solved a similar problem for MIPS which
fortunately has time namespaces not yet enabled.
S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another sequence
counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is to utilize the
already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The core code now exposes
helper functions which allow to serialize against the timekeeper code
and against concurrent readers.
S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It now has
an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which defaults to an
empty struct.
Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support to
work from a common upstream base.

Running posix CPU timers in hard interrupt context has a few downsides:
- For PREEMPT_RT it cannot work as the expiry code needs to take
sighand lock, which is a 'sleeping spinlock' in RT. The original RT
approach of offloading the posix CPU timer handling into a high
priority thread was clumsy and provided no real benefit in general.
- For fine grained accounting it's just wrong to run this in context of
the timer interrupt because that way a process specific CPU time is
accounted to the timer interrupt.
- Long running timer interrupts caused by a large amount of expiring
timers which can be created and armed by unpriviledged user space.
There is no hard requirement to expire them in interrupt context.
If the signal is targeted at the task itself then it won't be delivered
before the task returns to user space anyway. If the signal is targeted at
a supervisor process then it might be slightly delayed, but posix CPU
timers are inaccurate anyway due to the fact that they are tied to the
tick.
Provide infrastructure to schedule task work which allows splitting the
posix CPU timer code into a quick check in interrupt context and a thread
context expiry and signal delivery function. This has to be enabled by
architectures as it requires that the architecture specific KVM
implementation handles pending task work before exiting to guest mode.

Architectures can have the requirement to add additional architecture
specific data to the VDSO data page which needs to be updated independent
of the timekeeper updates.
To protect these updates vs. concurrent readers and a conflicting update
through timekeeping, provide helper functions to make such updates safe.
vdso_update_begin() takes the timekeeper_lock to protect against a
potential update from timekeeper code and increments the VDSO sequence
count to signal data inconsistency to concurrent readers. vdso_update_end()
makes the sequence count even again to signal data consistency and drops
the timekeeper lock.

Pull thread updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the changes to add the missing support for attaching to
time namespaces via pidfds.
Last cycle setns() was changed to support attaching to multiple
namespaces atomically. This requires all namespaces to have a point of
no return where they can't fail anymore.
Specifically, <namespace-type>_install() is allowed to perform
permission checks and install the namespace into the new struct nsset
that it has been given but it is not allowed to make visible changes
to the affected task. Once <namespace-type>_install() returns,
anything that the given namespace type additionally requires to be
setup needs to ideally be done in a function that can't fail or if it
fails the failure must be non-fatal.
For time namespaces the relevant functions that fell into this
category were timens_set_vvar_page() and vdso_join_timens(). The
latter could still fail although it didn't need to. This function is
only implemented for vdso_join_timens() in current mainline. As
discussed on-list (cf. [1]), in order to make setns() support time
namespaces when attaching to multiple namespaces at once properly we
changed vdso_join_timens() to always succeed. So vdso_join_timens()
replaces the mmap_write_lock_killable() with mmap_read_lock().
Please note that arm is about to grow vdso support for time namespaces
(possibly this merge window). We've synced on this change and arm64
also uses mmap_read_lock(), i.e. makes vdso_join_timens() a function
that can't fail. Once the changes here and the arm64 changes have
landed, vdso_join_timens() should be turned into a void function so
it's obvious to callers and implementers on other architectures that
the expectation is that it can't fail.
We didn't do this right away because it would've introduced
unnecessary merge conflicts between the two trees for no major gain.
As always, tests included"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path
- Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
(The default is to maximize performance & reduce RT latencies.)
- Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the
values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.
- Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware
- Improve frequency-invariant scheduling
- Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling
- Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running
- Documentation additions and updates
- Misc cleanups and smaller fixes

This modifies the first 32 bits out of the 128 bits of a random CPU's
net_rand_state on interrupt or CPU activity to complicate remote
observations that could lead to guessing the network RNG's internal
state.
Note that depending on some network devices' interrupt rate moderation
or binding, this re-seeding might happen on every packet or even almost
never.
In addition, with NOHZ some CPUs might not even get timer interrupts,
leaving their local state rarely updated, while they are running
networked processes making use of the random state. For this reason, we
also perform this update in update_process_times() in order to at least
update the state when there is user or system activity, since it's the
only case we care about.

The nohz tick code recalculates the timer wheel's next expiry on each idle
loop iteration.
On the other hand, the base next expiry is now always cached and updated
upon timer enqueue and execution. Only timer dequeue may leave
base->next_expiry out of date (but then its stale value won't ever go past
the actual next expiry to be recalculated).
Since recalculating the next_expiry isn't a free operation, especially when
the last wheel level is reached to find out that no timer has been enqueued
at all, reuse the next expiry cache when it is known to be reliable, which
it is most of the time.

sched_clock uses seqcount_t latching to switch between two storage
places protected by the sequence counter. This allows it to have
interruptible, NMI-safe, seqcount_t write side critical sections.
Since 7fc26327b7 ("seqlock: Introduce raw_read_seqcount_latch()"),
raw_read_seqcount_latch() became the standardized way for seqcount_t
latch read paths. Due to the dependent load, it also has one read
memory barrier less than the currently used raw_read_seqcount() API.
Use raw_read_seqcount_latch() for the seqcount_t latch read path.

Now that the core timer infrastructure doesn't depend anymore on
periodic base->clk increments, even when the CPU is not in NO_HZ mode,
timer softirqs can be skipped until there are timers to expire.
Some spurious softirqs can still remain since base->next_expiry doesn't
keep track of canceled timers but this still reduces the number of softirqs
significantly: ~15 times less for HZ=1000 and ~5 times less for HZ=100.

The bucket expiry time is the effective expriy time of timers and is
greater than or equal to the requested timer expiry time. This is due
to the guarantee that timers never expire early and the reduced expiry
granularity in the secondary wheel levels.
When a timer is enqueued, trigger_dyntick_cpu() checks whether the
timer is the new first timer. This check compares next_expiry with
the requested timer expiry value and not with the effective expiry
value of the bucket into which the timer was queued.
Storing the requested timer expiry value in base->next_expiry can lead
to base->clk going backwards if the requested timer expiry value is
smaller than base->clk. Commit 30c66fc30e ("timer: Prevent base->clk
from moving backward") worked around this by preventing the store when
timer->expiry is before base->clk, but did not fix the underlying
problem.
Use the expiry value of the bucket into which the timer is queued to
do the new first timer check. This fixes the base->clk going backward
problem.
The workaround of commit 30c66fc30e ("timer: Prevent base->clk from
moving backward") in trigger_dyntick_cpu() is not longer necessary as the
timers bucket expiry is guaranteed to be greater than or equal base->clk.

The higher bits of the timer expiration are cropped while calling
calc_index() due to the implicit cast from unsigned long to unsigned int.
This loss shouldn't have consequences on the current code since all the
computation to calculate the index is done on the lower 32 bits.
However to prepare for returning the actual bucket expiration from
calc_index() in order to properly fix base->next_expiry updates, the higher

When an expiration delta falls into the last level of the wheel, that delta
has be compared against the maximum possible delay and reduced to fit in if
necessary.
However instead of comparing the delta against the maximum, the code
compares the actual expiry against the maximum. Then instead of fixing the
delta to fit in, it sets the maximum delta as the expiry value.
This can result in various undesired outcomes, the worst possible one
being a timer expiring 15 days ahead to fire immediately.

When a timer is enqueued with a negative delta (ie: expiry is below
base->clk), it gets added to the wheel as expiring now (base->clk).
Yet the value that gets stored in base->next_expiry, while calling
trigger_dyntick_cpu(), is the initial timer->expires value. The
resulting state becomes:
base->next_expiry < base->clk
On the next timer enqueue, forward_timer_base() may accidentally
rewind base->clk. As a possible outcome, timers may expire way too
early, the worst case being that the highest wheel levels get spuriously
processed again.
To prevent from that, make sure that base->next_expiry doesn't get below
base->clk.

As discussed on-list (cf. [1]), in order to make setns() support time
namespaces when attaching to multiple namespaces at once properly we
need to tweak vdso_join_timens() to always succeed. So switch
vdso_join_timens() to using a read lock and replacing
mmap_write_lock_killable() to mmap_read_lock() as we discussed.
Last cycle setns() was changed to support attaching to multiple namespaces
atomically. This requires all namespaces to have a point of no return where
they can't fail anymore. Specifically, <namespace-type>_install() is
allowed to perform permission checks and install the namespace into the new
struct nsset that it has been given but it is not allowed to make visible
changes to the affected task. Once <namespace-type>_install() returns
anything that the given namespace type requires to be setup in addition
needs to ideally be done in a function that can't fail or if it fails the
failure is not fatal. For time namespaces the relevant functions that fall

Setting a tick dependency on any task, including the case where a task
sets that dependency on itself, triggers an IPI to all CPUs. That is
of course suboptimal but it had previously not been an issue because it
was only used by POSIX CPU timers on nohz_full, which apparently never
occurs in latency-sensitive workloads in production. (Or users of such
systems are suffering in silence on the one hand or venting their ire
on the wrong people on the other.)
But RCU now sets a task tick dependency on the current task in order
to fix stall issues that can occur during RCU callback processing.
Thus, RCU callback processing triggers frequent system-wide IPIs from
nohz_full CPUs. This is quite counter-productive, after all, avoiding
IPIs is what nohz_full is supposed to be all about.
This commit therefore optimizes tasks' self-setting of a task tick
dependency by using tick_nohz_full_kick() to avoid the system-wide IPI.
Instead, only the execution of the one task is disturbed, which is
acceptable given that this disturbance is well down into the noise
compared to the degree to which the RCU callback processing itself
disturbs execution.
Fixes: 6a949b7af8 (rcu: Force on tick when invoking lots of callbacks)

This all started about 6 month ago with the attempt to move the Posix CPU
timer heavy lifting out of the timer interrupt code and just have lockless
quick checks in that code path. Trivial 5 patches.
This unearthed an inconsistency in the KVM handling of task work and the
review requested to move all of this into generic code so other
architectures can share.
Valid request and solved with another 25 patches but those unearthed
inconsistencies vs. RCU and instrumentation.
Digging into this made it obvious that there are quite some inconsistencies
vs. instrumentation in general. The int3 text poke handling in particular
was completely unprotected and with the batched update of trace events even
more likely to expose to endless int3 recursion.
In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code came
up in several discussions.
The conclusion of the X86 maintainer team was to go all the way and make
the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and dangerous
code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling.
A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit d5f744f9a2.
The (almost) full solution introduced a new code section '.noinstr.text'
into which all code which needs to be protected from instrumentation of all
sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable code out of this section has
to be annotated. objtool has support to validate this. Kprobes now excludes
this section fully which also prevents BPF from fiddling with it and all
'noinstr' annotated functions also keep ftrace off. The section, kprobes
and objtool changes are already merged.
The major changes coming with this are:
- Preparatory cleanups
- Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the noinstr.text
section or enforcing inlining by marking them __always_inline so the
compiler cannot misplace or instrument them.
- Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is now
clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more
interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid
handling vs. CR3 and GS.
- Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code:
- enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now calls
into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and the return
path goes back out without bells and whistels in ASM.
- exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment
- move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as
appropriate which is especially important for the int3 recursion
issue.
- Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between 32
and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now.
- Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the regular
exception entry code.
- All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared header
file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit entry ASM.
- The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of
DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central point
that all corresponding entry points share the same semantics. The
actual function body for most entry points is in an instrumentable
and sane state.
There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points,
e.g. INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF.
They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling
into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct
approach.
- The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the
recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required other
isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch.
- Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and disable
it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the nested #DB IST
stack shifting hackery.
- A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made possible
through this and already merged changes, e.g. consolidating and
further restricting the IDT code so the IDT table becomes RO after
init which removes yet another popular attack vector
- About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone.
There are a few open issues:
- An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs
some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete
trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this was
not high on the priority list.
- Paravirtualization
When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect
calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward
ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were
more pressing than parawitz.
- KVM
KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they have
not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks.
- IDLE
Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle code
especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was beyond the
scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is on the todo
list.
The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the evolved
code base into something which can be validated and understood is that once
again the violation of the most important engineering principle
"correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend valuable time on
problems which could have been avoided in the first place. The "features

CONFIG_GENERIC_VDSO_CLOCK_MODE was a transitional config switch which got
removed after all architectures got converted to the new storage model.
But the removal forgot to remove the #ifdef which guards the

"This has four sets of changes:
- modernize proc to support multiple private instances
- ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly
- remove has_group_leader_pid
- use pids not tasks in posix-cpu-timers lookup
Alexey updated proc so each mount of proc uses a new superblock. This
allows people to actually use mount options with proc with no fear of
messing up another mount of proc. Given the kernel's internal mounts
of proc for things like uml this was a real problem, and resulted in
Android's hidepid mount options being ignored and introducing security
issues.
The rest of the changes are small cleanups and fixes that came out of
my work to allow this change to proc. In essence it is swapping the
pids in de_thread during exec which removes a special case the code
had to handle. Then updating the code to stop handling that special
case"

Add a simple struct nsset. It holds all necessary pieces to switch to a new
set of namespaces without leaving a task in a half-switched state which we
will make use of in the next patch. This patch switches the existing setns
logic over without causing a change in setns() behavior. This brings
setns() closer to how unshare() works(). The prepare_ns() function is
responsible to prepare all necessary information. This has two reasons.
First it minimizes dependencies between individual namespaces, i.e. all
install handler can expect that all fields are properly initialized
independent in what order they are called in. Second, this makes the code
easier to maintain and easier to follow if it needs to be changed.
The prepare_ns() helper will only be switched over to use a flags argument
in the next patch. Here it will still use nstype as a simple integer
argument which was argued would be clearer. I'm not particularly
opinionated about this if it really helps or not. The struct nsset itself
already contains the flags field since its name already indicates that it
can contain information required by different namespaces. None of this
should have functional consequences.

Now that the codes store references to pids instead of referendes to
tasks. Looking up a task for a clock instead of looking up a struct
pid makes the code more difficult to verify it is correct than
necessary.
In posix_cpu_timers_create get_task_pid can race with release_task for
threads and return a NULL pid. As put_pid and cpu_timer_task_rcu
handle NULL pids just fine the code works without problems but it is
an extra case to consider and keep in mind while verifying and
modifying the code.
There are races with de_thread to consider that only don't apply
because thread clocks are only allowed for threads in the same
thread_group.
So instead of leaving a burden for people making modification to the
code in the future return a rcu protected struct pid for the clock
instead.
The logic for __get_task_for_pid and lookup_task has been folded into
the new function pid_for_clock with the only change being the logic
has been modified from working on a task to working on a pid that
will be returned.
In posix_cpu_clock_get instead of calling pid_for_clock checking the
result and then calling pid_task to get the task. The result of
pid_for_clock is fed directly into pid_task. This is safe because
pid_task handles NULL pids. As such an extra error check was
unnecessary.
Instead of hiding the flag that enables the special clock_gettime
handling, I have made the 3 callers just pass the flag in themselves.
That is less code and seems just as simple to work with as the
wrapper functions.
Historically the clock_gettime special case of allowing a process
clock to be found by the thread id did not even exist [33ab0fec33]
but Thomas Gleixner reports that he has found code that uses that
functionality [55e8c8eb2c].

Replace has_group_leader_pid with thread_group_leader. Years ago Oleg
suggested changing thread_group_leader to has_group_leader_pid to handle
races. Looking at the code then and now I don't see how it ever helped.
Especially as then the code really did need to be the
thread_group_leader.
Today it doesn't make a difference if thread_group_leader races with
de_thread as the task returned from lookup_task in the non-thread case is
just used to find values in task->signal.
Since the races with de_thread have never been handled revert
has_group_header_pid to thread_group_leader for clarity.
Update the comment in lookup_task to remove implementation details that
are no longer true and to mention task->signal instead of task->sighand,
as the relevant cpu timer details are all in task->signal.

Michael Kerrisk suggested to replace numeric clock IDs with symbolic names.
Now the content of these files looks like this:
$ cat /proc/774/timens_offsets
monotonic 864000 0
boottime 1728000 0
For setting offsets, both representations of clocks (numeric and symbolic)
can be used.
As for compatibility, it is acceptable to change things as long as
userspace doesn't care. The format of timens_offsets files is very new and
there are no userspace tools yet which rely on this format.
But three projects crun, util-linux and criu rely on the interface of
setting time offsets and this is why it's required to continue supporting
the numeric clock IDs on write.

Splitting run_posix_cpu_timers() into two parts is work in progress which
is stuck on other entry code related problems. The heavy lifting which
involves locking of sighand lock will be moved into task context so the
necessary execution time is burdened on the task and not on interrupt

Until this work completes lockdep with the spinlock nesting rules enabled
would emit warnings for this known context.

seqlock consists of a sequence counter and a spinlock_t which is used to
serialize the writers. spinlock_t is substituted by a "sleeping" spinlock
on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels which breaks the usage in the timekeeping
code as the writers are executed in hard interrupt and therefore
non-preemptible context even on PREEMPT_RT.
The spinlock in seqlock cannot be unconditionally replaced by a
raw_spinlock_t as many seqlock users have nesting spinlock sections or
other code which is not suitable to run in truly atomic context on RT.
Instead of providing a raw_seqlock API for a single use case, open code the
seqlock for the jiffies use case and implement it with a raw_spinlock_t and
a sequence counter.

The tick_periodic() function is used at the beginning part of the
bootup process for time keeping while the other clock sources are
being initialized.
The current code assumes that all the timer interrupts are handled in
a timely manner with no missing ticks. That is not actually true. Some
ticks are missed and there are some discrepancies between the tick time
(jiffies) and the timestamp reported in the kernel log. Some systems,
however, are more prone to missing ticks than the others. In the extreme
case, the discrepancy can actually cause a soft lockup message to be
printed by the watchdog kthread. For example, on a Cavium ThunderX2
Sabre arm64 system:
[ 25.496379] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#14 stuck for 22s!
On that system, the missing ticks are especially prevalent during the
smp_init() phase of the boot process. With an instrumented kernel,
it was found that it took about 24s as reported by the timestamp for
the tick to accumulate 4s of time.
Investigation and bisection done by others seemed to point to the
commit 73f3816609 ("arm64: Advertise mitigation of Spectre-v2, or
lack thereof") as the culprit. It could also be a firmware issue as
new firmware was promised that would fix the issue.
To properly address this problem, stop assuming that there will be no
missing tick in tick_periodic(). Modify it to follow the example of
tick_do_update_jiffies64() by using another reference clock to check for
missing ticks. Since the watchdog timer uses running_clock(), it is used
here as the reference. With this applied, the soft lockup problem in the
affected arm64 system is gone and tick time tracks much more closely to the
timestamp time.

posix cpu timers do not handle the death of a process well.
This is most clearly seen when a multi-threaded process calls exec from a
thread that is not the leader of the thread group. The posix cpu timer code
continues to pin the old thread group leader and is unable to find the
siglock from there.
This results in posix_cpu_timer_del being unable to delete a timer,
posix_cpu_timer_set being unable to set a timer. Further to compensate for
the problems in posix_cpu_timer_del on a multi-threaded exec all timers
that point at the multi-threaded task are stopped.
The code for the timers fundamentally needs to check if the target
process/thread is alive. This needs an extra level of indirection. This
level of indirection is already available in struct pid.
So replace cpu.task with cpu.pid to get the needed extra layer of
indirection.
In addition to handling things more cleanly this reduces the amount of
memory a timer can pin when a process exits and then is reaped from
a task_struct to the vastly smaller struct pid.

The timer_pending() function is mostly used in lockless contexts, so
Without proper annotations, KCSAN might detect a data-race [1].
Using hlist_unhashed_lockless() instead of hand-coding it seems
appropriate (as suggested by Paul E. McKenney).

When working commit 6dcd5d7a7a, a mistake was noticed by Linus:
schedule_timeout() was called without setting the task state to anything
particular.
It calls the scheduler, but doesn't delay anything, because the task stays
runnable. That happens because sched_submit_work() does nothing for tasks
in TASK_RUNNING state.
That turned out to be the intended behavior. Adding a WARN() is not useful
as the task could be woken up right after setting the state and before
reaching schedule_timeout().
Improve the comment about schedule_timeout() and describe that more
explicitly.

MAINTAINERS: Correct path to time namespace source file
Kernel crashes inside QEMU/KVM are observed:
kernel BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:1154!
BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer->function) in add_timer_on().
At the same time another cpu got:

Unfortunately kernel logs are badly scrambled, stacktraces are lost.
Printing the timer->function before the BUG_ON() pointed to
clocksource_watchdog().
The execution of clocksource_watchdog() can race with a sequence of
clocksource_stop_watchdog() .. clocksource_start_watchdog():
expire_timers()
detach_timer(timer, true);
timer->entry.pprev = NULL;
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&base->lock);
call_timer_fn
clocksource_watchdog()
clocksource_watchdog_kthread() or
clocksource_unbind()

I.e. inside clocksource_watchdog() watchdog_timer could be already armed.
Check timer_pending() before calling add_timer_on(). This is sufficient as
all operations are synchronized by watchdog_lock.

These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some reason
or another were not included in the kernel in the previous y2038 series.
I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is
in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references
to time_t with safe alternatives.
Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs,
alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the now
unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after all five
branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users get merged.
As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1], should
be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit system designed
to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats:
- All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be
supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along with
installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher.
- Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to be
ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of the
existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and seccomp()
as well as programming languages that have their own runtime environment
not based on libc.
- Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or
their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in
particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h,
linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and linux/can/bcm.h.
- A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit time_t
in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC
times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit timestamps. Most
importantly this impacts all users of 'struct input_event'.
- All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply to
32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with on-disk
timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with ext3-style small
inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs.
Changes since v1 [2]:
- Add Acks I received
- Rebase to v5.5-rc1, dropping patches that got merged already
- Add NFS, XFS and the final three patches from another series
- Rewrite etnaviv patches
- Add one late revert to avoid an etnaviv regression

- Time namespace support:
If a container migrates from one host to another then it expects that
clocks based on MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME are not subject to
disruption. Due to different boot time and non-suspended runtime these
clocks can differ significantly on two hosts, in the worst case time
goes backwards which is a violation of the POSIX requirements.
The time namespace addresses this problem. It allows to set offsets for
clock MONOTONIC and BOOTTIME once after creation and before tasks are
associated with the namespace. These offsets are taken into account by
timers and timekeeping including the VDSO.
Offsets for wall clock based clocks (REALTIME/TAI) are not provided by
this mechanism. While in theory possible, the overhead and code
complexity would be immense and not justified by the esoteric potential
use cases which were discussed at Plumbers '18.
The overhead for tasks in the root namespace (host time offsets = 0) is
in the noise and great effort was made to ensure that especially in the
VDSO. If time namespace is disabled in the kernel configuration the
code is compiled out.
Kudos to Andrei Vagin and Dmitry Sofanov who implemented this feature

The stubbed version of alarmtimer_get_rtcdev() is not exported.
so this won't work if this function is used in a module when
CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=n.
Move the stub function to the header file and make it inline so that
callers don't have to worry about linking against this symbol.
rtcdev isn't used outside of this ifdef so it's not required to be
redefined to NULL. Drop that while touching this area.

The alarmtimer_suspend() function will fail if an RTC device is on a bus
such as SPI or i2c and that RTC device registers and probes after
alarmtimer_init() registers and probes the 'alarmtimer' platform device.
This is because system wide suspend suspends devices in the reverse order
of their probe. When alarmtimer_suspend() attempts to program the RTC for a
wakeup it will try to program an RTC device on a bus that has already been
suspended.
Move the alarmtimer device registration to happen when the RTC which is
used for wakeup is registered. Register the 'alarmtimer' platform device as
a child of the RTC device too, so that it can be guaranteed that the RTC
device won't be suspended when alarmtimer_suspend() is called.

The low resolution parts of the VDSO, i.e.:
clock_gettime(CLOCK_*_COARSE), clock_getres(), time()
can be used even if there is no VDSO capable clocksource.
But if an architecture opts out of the VDSO data update then this
information becomes stale. This affects ARM when there is no architected
timer available. The lack of update causes userspace to use stale data
forever.
Make the update of the low resolution parts unconditional and only skip
the update of the high resolution parts if the architecture requests it.

Suspend to IDLE invokes tick_unfreeze() on resume. tick_unfreeze() on the
first resuming CPU resumes timekeeping, which also has the side effect of
resetting the softlockup watchdog on this CPU.
But on the secondary CPUs the watchdog is not reset in the resume /
unfreeze() path, which can result in false softlockup warnings on those
CPUs depending on the time spent in suspend.
Prevent this by clearing the softlock watchdog in the unfreeze path also
on the secondary resuming CPUs.

VDSO support for Time namespace needs to set up a page with the same
layout as VVAR. That timens page will be placed on position of VVAR page
inside namespace. That page contains time namespace clock offsets and it
has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path and
vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time namespace
handling path.
Allocate the timens page during namespace creation. Setup the offsets
when the first task enters the ns and freeze them to guarantee the pace
of monotonic/boottime clocks and to avoid breakage of applications.
The design decision is to have a global offset_lock which is used during
namespace offsets setup and to freeze offsets when the first task joins the
new time namespace. That is better in terms of memory usage compared to
having a per namespace mutex that's used only during the setup period.

Wire timer_settime() syscall into time namespace virtualization.
sys_timer_settime() calls the ktime->timer_set() callback. Right now,
common_timer_set() is the only implementation for the callback.
The user-supplied expiry value is converted from timespec64 to ktime and
then timens_ktime_to_host() can be used to convert namespace's time to the
host time.
Inside a time namespace kernel's time differs by a fixed offset from a
user-supplied time, but only absolute values (TIMER_ABSTIME) must be

Time Namespace isolates clock values.
The kernel provides access to several clocks CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_BOOTTIME, etc.
CLOCK_REALTIME
System-wide clock that measures real (i.e., wall-clock) time.
CLOCK_MONOTONIC
Clock that cannot be set and represents monotonic time since
some unspecified starting point.
CLOCK_BOOTTIME
Identical to CLOCK_MONOTONIC, except it also includes any time
that the system is suspended.
For many users, the time namespace means the ability to changes date and
time in a container (CLOCK_REALTIME). Providing per namespace notions of
CLOCK_REALTIME would be complex with a massive overhead, but has a dubious
value.
But in the context of checkpoint/restore functionality, monotonic and
boottime clocks become interesting. Both clocks are monotonic with
unspecified starting points. These clocks are widely used to measure time
slices and set timers. After restoring or migrating processes, it has to be
guaranteed that they never go backward. In an ideal case, the behavior of
these clocks should be the same as for a case when a whole system is
suspended. All this means that it is required to set CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME clocks, which can be achieved by adding per-namespace
offsets for clocks.
A time namespace is similar to a pid namespace in the way how it is
created: unshare(CLONE_NEWTIME) system call creates a new time namespace,
but doesn't set it to the current process. Then all children of the process
will be born in the new time namespace, or a process can use the setns()
system call to join a namespace.
This scheme allows setting clock offsets for a namespace, before any
processes appear in it.
All available clone flags have been used, so CLONE_NEWTIME uses the highest
bit of CSIGNAL. It means that it can be used only with the unshare() and
the clone3() system calls.

Here cdev is embedded in posix_clock which is embedded in ptp_clock.
The race happens because ptp_clock's lifetime is controlled by two
refcounts: kref and cdev.kobj in posix_clock. This is wrong.
Make ptp_clock's sysfs device a parent of cdev with cdev_device_add()
created especially for such cases. This way the parent device with its
ptp_clock is not released until all references to the cdev are released.
This adds a requirement that an initialized but not exposed struct
device should be provided to posix_clock_register() by a caller instead
of a simple dev_t.
This approach was adopted from the commit 72139dfa24 ("watchdog: Fix
the race between the release of watchdog_core_data and cdev"). See
details of the implementation in the commit 233ed09d7f ("chardev: add
helper function to register char devs with a struct device").

The update of the VDSO data is depending on __arch_use_vsyscall() returning
True. This is a leftover from the attempt to map the features of various
architectures 1:1 into generic code.
The usage of __arch_use_vsyscall() in the actual vsyscall implementations
got dropped and replaced by the requirement for the architecture code to
return U64_MAX if the global clocksource is not usable in the VDSO.
But the __arch_use_vsyscall() check in the update code stayed which causes
the VDSO data to be stale or invalid when an architecture actually
implements that function and returns False when the current clocksource is
not usable in the VDSO.
As a consequence the VDSO implementations of clock_getres(), time(),
clock_gettime(CLOCK_.*_COARSE) operate on invalid data and return bogus
information.
Remove the __arch_use_vsyscall() check from the VDSO update function and
update the VDSO data unconditionally.

It turns out that rcutorture needs to ensure that the scheduling-clock
interrupt is enabled in CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL kernels before starting on
CPU-bound in-kernel processing. This commit therefore exports
tick_nohz_dep_set_task(), tick_nohz_dep_clear_task(), and
tick_nohz_full_setup() to GPL kernel modules.

If a nohz_full CPU is looping in the kernel, the scheduling-clock tick
might nevertheless remain disabled. In !PREEMPT kernels, this can
prevent RCU's attempts to enlist the aid of that CPU's executions of
cond_resched(), which can in turn result in an arbitrarily delayed grace
period and thus an OOM. RCU therefore needs a way to enable a holdout
nohz_full CPU's scheduler-clock interrupt.
This commit therefore provides a new TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU value which RCU can
pass to tick_dep_set_cpu() and friends to force on the scheduler-clock
interrupt for a specified CPU or task. In some cases, rcutorture needs
to turn on the scheduler-clock tick, so this commit also exports the
relevant symbols to GPL-licensed modules.

When a cpu requests broadcasting, before starting the tick broadcast
hrtimer, bc_set_next() checks if the timer callback (bc_handler) is active
using hrtimer_try_to_cancel(). But hrtimer_try_to_cancel() does not provide
the required synchronization when the callback is active on other core.
The callback could have already executed tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast()
and could have also returned. But still there is a small time window where
the hrtimer_try_to_cancel() returns -1. In that case bc_set_next() returns
without doing anything, but the next_event of the tick broadcast clock
device is already set to a timeout value.
In the race condition diagram below, CPU #1 is running the timer callback
and CPU #2 is entering idle state and so calls bc_set_next().
In the worst case, the next_event will contain an expiry time, but the
hrtimer will not be started which happens when the racing callback returns
HRTIMER_NORESTART. The hrtimer might never recover if all further requests
from the CPUs to subscribe to tick broadcast have timeout greater than the
next_event of tick broadcast clock device. This leads to cascading of
failures and finally noticed as rcu stall warnings
Here is a depiction of the race condition
CPU #1 (Running timer callback) CPU #2 (Enter idle
and subscribe to
tick broadcast)
--------------------- ---------------------
__run_hrtimer() tick_broadcast_enter()
bc_handler() __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control()
tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast()
raw_spin_lock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
dev->next_event = KTIME_MAX; //wait for tick_broadcast_lock
//next_event for tick broadcast clock
set to KTIME_MAX since no other cores
subscribed to tick broadcasting
raw_spin_unlock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
if (dev->next_event == KTIME_MAX)
return HRTIMER_NORESTART
// callback function exits without
restarting the hrtimer //tick_broadcast_lock acquired
raw_spin_lock(&tick_broadcast_lock);
tick_broadcast_set_event()
clockevents_program_event()
dev->next_event = expires;
bc_set_next()
hrtimer_try_to_cancel()
//returns -1 since the timer
callback is active. Exits without
restarting the timer
cpu_base->running = NULL;
The comment that hrtimer cannot be armed from within the callback is
wrong. It is fine to start the hrtimer from within the callback. Also it is
safe to start the hrtimer from the enter/exit idle code while the broadcast
handler is active. The enter/exit idle code and the broadcast handler are
synchronized using tick_broadcast_lock. So there is no need for the
existing try to cancel logic. All this can be removed which will eliminate
the race condition as well.

"Fix a timer expiry bug that would cause spurious delay of timers"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
timer: Read jiffies once when forwarding base clk
The timer delayed for more than 3 seconds warning was triggered during
testing.

The reason is that the code in collect_expired_timers() uses jiffies
unprotected:
if (next_event > jiffies)
base->clk = jiffies;
As the compiler is allowed to reload the value base->clk can advance
between the check and the store and in the worst case advance farther than
next event. That causes the timer expiry to be delayed until the wheel
pointer wraps around.
Convert the code to use READ_ONCE()

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These include a rework of the main suspend-to-idle code flow (related
to the handling of spurious wakeups), a switch over of several users
of cpufreq notifiers to QoS-based limits, a new devfreq driver for
Tegra20, a new cpuidle driver and governor for virtualized guests, an
extension of the wakeup sources framework to expose wakeup sources as
device objects in sysfs, and more.
Specifics:
- Rework the main suspend-to-idle control flow to avoid repeating
"noirq" device resume and suspend operations in case of spurious
wakeups from the ACPI EC and decouple the ACPI EC wakeups support
from the LPS0 _DSM support (Rafael Wysocki).
- Extend the wakeup sources framework to expose wakeup sources as
device objects in sysfs (Tri Vo, Stephen Boyd).
- Expose system suspend statistics in sysfs (Kalesh Singh).
- Introduce a new haltpoll cpuidle driver and a new matching governor
for virtualized guests wanting to do guest-side polling in the idle
loop (Marcelo Tosatti, Joao Martins, Wanpeng Li, Stephen Rothwell).
- Fix the menu and teo cpuidle governors to allow the scheduler tick
to be stopped if PM QoS is used to limit the CPU idle state exit
latency in some cases (Rafael Wysocki).
- Increase the resolution of the play_idle() argument to microseconds
for more fine-grained injection of CPU idle cycles (Daniel
Lezcano).
- Switch over some users of cpuidle notifiers to the new QoS-based
frequency limits and drop the CPUFREQ_ADJUST and CPUFREQ_NOTIFY
policy notifier events (Viresh Kumar).
- Add new cpufreq driver based on nvmem for sun50i (Yangtao Li).
- Add support for MT8183 and MT8516 to the mediatek cpufreq driver
(Andrew-sh.Cheng, Fabien Parent).
- Add i.MX8MN support to the imx-cpufreq-dt cpufreq driver (Anson
Huang).
- Add qcs404 to cpufreq-dt-platdev blacklist (Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz).
- Update the qcom cpufreq driver (among other things, to make it
easier to extend and to use kryo cpufreq for other nvmem-based
SoCs) and add qcs404 support to it (Niklas Cassel, Douglas
RAILLARD, Sibi Sankar, Sricharan R).
- Fix assorted issues and make assorted minor improvements in the
cpufreq code (Colin Ian King, Douglas RAILLARD, Florian Fainelli,
Gustavo Silva, Hariprasad Kelam).
- Add new devfreq driver for NVidia Tegra20 (Dmitry Osipenko, Arnd
Bergmann).
- Add new Exynos PPMU events to devfreq events and extend that
mechanism (Lukasz Luba).
- Fix and clean up the exynos-bus devfreq driver (Kamil Konieczny).

Pull core timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Timers and timekeeping updates:
- A large overhaul of the posix CPU timer code which is a preparation
for moving the CPU timer expiry out into task work so it can be
properly accounted on the task/process.
An update to the bogus permission checks will come later during the
merge window as feedback was not complete before heading of for
travel.
- Switch the timerqueue code to use cached rbtrees and get rid of the
homebrewn caching of the leftmost node.
- Consolidate hrtimer_init() + hrtimer_init_sleeper() calls into a
single function
- Implement the separation of hrtimers to be forced to expire in hard
interrupt context even when PREEMPT_RT is enabled and mark the
affected timers accordingly.
- Implement a mechanism for hrtimers and the timer wheel to protect
RT against priority inversion and live lock issues when a (hr)timer
which should be canceled is currently executing the callback.
Instead of infinitely spinning, the task which tries to cancel the
timer blocks on a per cpu base expiry lock which is held and
released by the (hr)timer expiry code.
- Enable the Hyper-V TSC page based sched_clock for Hyper-V guests
resulting in faster access to timekeeping functions.
- Updates to various clocksource/clockevent drivers and their device
tree bindings.
- The usual small improvements all over the place"

The recent consolidation of the three permission checks introduced a subtle
regression. For timer_create() with a process wide timer it returns the
current task if the lookup through the PID which is encoded into the
clockid results in returning current.
That's broken because it does not validate whether the current task is the
group leader.
That was caused by the two different variants of permission checks:
- posix_cpu_timer_get() allowed access to the process wide clock when the
looked up task is current. That's not an issue because the process wide
clock is in the shared sighand.
- posix_cpu_timer_create() made sure that the looked up task is the group
leader.
Restore the previous state.
Note, that these permission checks are more than questionable, but that's
subject to follow up changes.
