There are external event timestampers (PHCs with support for
PTP_EXTTS_REQUEST) that timestamp both event edges.
When those edges are very close (such as in the case of a short pulse),
there is a chance that the collected timestamp might be of the rising,
or of the falling edge, we never know.
There are also PHCs capable of generating periodic output with a
configurable duty cycle. This is good news, because we can space the
rising and falling edge out enough in time, that the risks to overrun
the 1-entry timestamp FIFO of the extts PHC are lower (example: the
perout PHC can be configured for a period of 1 second, and an "on" time
of 0.5 seconds, resulting in a duty cycle of 50%).
A flag is introduced for signaling that an on time is present in the
perout request structure, for preserving compatibility. Logically
speaking, the duty cycle cannot exceed 100% and the PTP core checks for
this.
PHC drivers that don't support this flag emit a periodic output of an
unspecified duty cycle, same as before.
The duty cycle is encoded as an "on" time, similar to the "start" and
"period" times, and reuses the reserved space while preserving overall
binary layout.
Pahole reported before:
struct ptp_perout_request {
struct ptp_clock_time start; /* 0 16 */
struct ptp_clock_time period; /* 16 16 */
unsigned int index; /* 32 4 */
unsigned int flags; /* 36 4 */
unsigned int rsv[4]; /* 40 16 */
/* size: 56, cachelines: 1, members: 5 */
/* last cacheline: 56 bytes */
};
And now:
struct ptp_perout_request {
struct ptp_clock_time start; /* 0 16 */
struct ptp_clock_time period; /* 16 16 */
unsigned int index; /* 32 4 */
unsigned int flags; /* 36 4 */

The PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) subsystem offers an API for configuring
programmable pins. User space sets or gets the settings using ioctls,
and drivers verify dialed settings via a callback. Drivers may also
query pin settings by calling the ptp_find_pin() method.
Although the core subsystem protects concurrent access to the pin
settings, the implementation places illogical restrictions on how
drivers may call ptp_find_pin(). When enabling an auxiliary function
via the .enable(on=1) callback, drivers may invoke the pin finding
method, but when disabling with .enable(on=0) drivers are not
permitted to do so. With the exception of the mv88e6xxx, all of the
PHC drivers do respect this restriction, but still the locking pattern
is both confusing and unnecessary.
This patch changes the locking implementation to allow PHC drivers to
freely call ptp_find_pin() from their .enable() and .verify()
callbacks.

Add a PTP clock driver called ptp_vmw, for guests running on VMware ESXi
hypervisor. The driver attaches to a VMware virtual device called
"precision clock" that provides a mechanism for querying host system time.
Similar to existing virtual PTP clock drivers (e.g. ptp_kvm), ptp_vmw
utilizes the kernel's PTP hardware clock API to implement a clock device
that can be used as a reference in Chrony for synchronizing guest time with
host.
The driver is only applicable to x86 guests running in VMware virtual
machines with precision clock virtual device present. It uses a VMware
specific hypercall mechanism to read time from the device.

cdev_put

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").

Commit 415606588c ("PTP: introduce new versions of IOCTLs",
2019-09-13) introduced new versions of the PTP ioctls which actually
validate that the flags are acceptable values.
As part of this, it cleared the flags value using a bitwise
and+negation, in an attempt to prevent the old ioctl from accidentally
enabling new features.
This is incorrect for a couple of reasons. First, it results in
accidentally preventing previously working flags on the request ioctl.
By clearing the "valid" flags, we now no longer allow setting the
enable, rising edge, or falling edge flags.
Second, if we add new additional flags in the future, they must not be
set by the old ioctl. (Since the flag wasn't checked before, we could
potentially break userspace programs which sent garbage flag data.
The correct way to resolve this is to check for and clear all but the
originally valid flags.
Create defines indicating which flags are correctly checked and
interpreted by the original ioctls. Use these to clear any bits which
will not be correctly interpreted by the original ioctls.
In the future, new flags must be added to the VALID_FLAGS macros, but
*not* to the V1_VALID_FLAGS macros. In this way, new features may be
exposed over the v2 ioctls, but without breaking previous userspace
which happened to not clear the flags value properly. The old ioctl will
continue to behave the same way, while the new ioctl gains the benefit
of using the flags fields.

The current version of the IOCTL have a small problem which prevents us
from extending the API by making use of reserved fields. In these new
IOCTLs, we are now making sure that flags and rsv fields are zero which
will allow us to extend the API in the future.
