On systems with a large number of CPUs, running sysrq-<q> can cause
watchdog timeouts. There are two slow sections of code in the sysrq-<q>
path in timer_list.c.
1. print_active_timers() - This function is called by print_cpu() and
contains a slow goto loop. On a machine with hundreds of CPUs, this
loop took approximately 100ms for the first CPU in a NUMA node.
(Subsequent CPUs in the same node ran much quicker.) The total time
to print all of the CPUs is ultimately long enough to trigger the
soft lockup watchdog.
2. print_tickdevice() - This function outputs a large amount of textual
information. This function also took approximately 100ms per CPU.
Since sysrq-<q> is not a performance critical path, there should be no
harm in touching the nmi watchdog in both slow sections above. Touching
it in just one location was insufficient on systems with hundreds of
CPUs as occasional timeouts were still observed during testing.
This issue was observed on an Oracle T7 machine with 128 CPUs, but I
anticipate it may affect other systems with similarly large numbers of
CPUs.

Currently CONFIG_TIMER_STATS exposes process information across namespaces:
kernel/time/timer_list.c print_timer():
SEQ_printf(m, ", %s/%d", tmp, timer->start_pid);
/proc/timer_list:
#11: <0000000000000000>, hrtimer_wakeup, S:01, do_nanosleep, cron/2570
Given that the tracer can give the same information, this patch entirely

If CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES is enabled we add a jiffie to the relative timeout to
prevent short sleeps, but we do not account for that in interfaces which
retrieve the remaining time.
Helge observed that timerfd can return a remaining time larger than the
relative timeout. That's not expected and breaks userland test programs.
Store the information that the timer was armed relative and provide functions
to adjust the remaining time. To avoid bloating the hrtimer struct make state
a u8, which as a bonus results in better code on x86 at least.

I noticed for non-monotonic timers in timer_list, some of the
output looked a little confusing.
For example:
#1: <0000000000000000>, posix_timer_fn, S:01, hrtimer_start_range_ns, leap-a-day/2360
# expires at 1434412800000000000-1434412800000000000 nsecs [in 1434410725062375469 to 1434410725062375469 nsecs]
You'll note the relative time till the expiration "[in xxx to
yyy nsecs]" is incorrect. This is because its printing the delta
between CLOCK_MONOTONIC time to the CLOCK_REALTIME expiration.
This patch fixes this issue by adding the clock offset to the
"now" time which we use to calculate the delta.

Eric reported that the timer_migration sysctl is not really nice
performance wise as it needs to check at every timer insertion whether
the feature is enabled or not. Further the check does not live in the
timer code, so we have an extra function call which checks an extra
cache line to figure out that it is disabled.
We can do better and store that information in the per cpu (hr)timer
bases. I pondered to use a static key, but that's a nightmare to
update from the nohz code and the timer base cache line is hot anyway
when we select a timer base.
The old logic enabled the timer migration unconditionally if
CONFIG_NO_HZ was set even if nohz was disabled on the kernel command
line.
With this modification, we start off with migration disabled. The user
visible sysctl is still set to enabled. If the kernel switches to NOHZ
migration is enabled, if the user did not disable it via the sysctl
prior to the switch. If nohz=off is on the kernel command line,
migration stays disabled no matter what.

When no timers/hrtimers are pending, the expiry time is set to a
special value: 'KTIME_MAX'. This normally happens with
NO_HZ_{IDLE|FULL} in both LOWRES/HIGHRES modes.
When 'expiry == KTIME_MAX', we either cancel the 'tick-sched' hrtimer
(NOHZ_MODE_HIGHRES) or skip reprogramming clockevent device
(NOHZ_MODE_LOWRES). But, the clockevent device is already
reprogrammed from the tick-handler for next tick.
As the clock event device is programmed in ONESHOT mode it will at
least fire one more time (unnecessarily). Timers on few
implementations (like arm_arch_timer, etc.) only support PERIODIC mode
and their drivers emulate ONESHOT over that. Which means that on these
platforms we will get spurious interrupts periodically (at last
programmed interval rate, normally tick rate).
In order to avoid spurious interrupts, the clockevent device should be
stopped or its interrupts should be masked.
A simple (yet hacky) solution to get this fixed could be: update
hrtimer_force_reprogram() to always reprogram clockevent device and
update clockevent drivers to STOP generating events (or delay it to
max time) when 'expires' is set to KTIME_MAX. But the drawback here is
that every clockevent driver has to be hacked for this particular case
and its very easy for new ones to miss this.
However, Thomas suggested to add an optional state ONESHOT_STOPPED to
solve this problem: lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/9/508.
This patch adds support for ONESHOT_STOPPED state in clockevents
core. It will only be available to drivers that implement the
state-specific callbacks instead of the legacy ->set_mode() callback.

The evaluation of the next timer in the nohz code is based on jiffies
while all the tick internals are nano seconds based. We have also to
convert hrtimer nanoseconds to jiffies in the !highres case. That's
just wrong and introduces interesting corner cases.
Turn it around and convert the next timer wheel timer expiry and the
rcu event to clock monotonic and base all calculations on
nanoseconds. That identifies the case where no timer is pending
clearly with an absolute expiry value of KTIME_MAX.
Makes the code more readable and gets rid of the jiffies magic in the
nohz code.

Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
'enum clock_event_mode' is used for two purposes today:
- to pass mode to the driver of clockevent device::set_mode().
- for managing state of the device for clockevents core.
For supporting new modes/states we have moved away from the
legacy set_mode() callback to new per-mode/state callbacks. New
modes/states shouldn't be exposed to the legacy (now OBSOLOTE)
callbacks and so we shouldn't add new states to 'enum
clock_event_mode'.
Lets have separate enums for the two use cases mentioned above.
Keep using the earlier enum for legacy set_mode() callback and
mark it OBSOLETE. And add another enum to clearly specify the
possible states of a clockevent device.
This also renames the newly added per-mode callbacks to reflect
state changes.
We haven't got rid of 'mode' member of 'struct
clock_event_device' as it is used by some of the clockevent
drivers and it would automatically die down once we migrate
those drivers to the new interface. It ('mode') is only updated
now for the drivers using the legacy interface.

It is not possible for the clockevents core to know which modes (other than
those with a corresponding feature flag) are supported by a particular
implementation. And drivers are expected to handle transition to all modes
elegantly, as ->set_mode() would be issued for them unconditionally.
Now, adding support for a new mode complicates things a bit if we want to use
the legacy ->set_mode() callback. We need to closely review all clockevents
drivers to see if they would break on addition of a new mode. And after such
reviews, it is found that we have to do non-trivial changes to most of the
drivers [1].
Introduce mode-specific set_mode_*() callbacks, some of which the drivers may or
may not implement. A missing callback would clearly convey the message that the
corresponding mode isn't supported.
A driver may still choose to keep supporting the legacy ->set_mode() callback,
but ->set_mode() wouldn't be supporting any new modes beyond RESUME. If a driver
wants to benefit from using a new mode, it would be required to migrate to
the mode specific callbacks.
The legacy ->set_mode() callback and the newly introduced mode-specific
callbacks are mutually exclusive. Only one of them should be supported by the
driver.
Sanity check is done at the time of registration to distinguish between optional
and required callbacks and to make error recovery and handling simpler. If the
legacy ->set_mode() callback is provided, all mode specific ones would be
ignored by the core but a warning is thrown if they are present.
Call sites calling ->set_mode() directly are also updated to use
__clockevents_set_mode() instead, as ->set_mode() may not be available anymore
for few drivers.

Now that idle and nohz logics are going to be independant each others,
ts->idle_tick becomes too much a biased name to describe the field that
saves the last scheduled tick on top of which we re-calculate the next
tick to schedule when the timer is restarted.
We want to reuse this even to stop the tick outside idle cases. So let's
rename it to some more generic name: ts->last_tick.
This changes a bit the timer list stat export so we need to increase its

The current logic which handles clock events programming failures can
increase min_delta_ns unlimited and even can cause overflows.
Sanitize it by:
- prevent zero increase when min_delta_ns == 1
- limiting min_delta_ns to a jiffie
- bail out if the jiffie limit is hit
- add retries stats for /proc/timer_list so we can gather data

The hrtimer_interrupt hang logic adjusts min_delta_ns based on the
execution time of the hrtimer callbacks.
This is error-prone for virtual machines, where a guest vcpu can be
scheduled out during the execution of the callbacks (and the callbacks
themselves can do operations that translate to blocking operations in
the hypervisor), which in can lead to large min_delta_ns rendering the
system unusable.
Replace the current heuristics with something more reliable. Allow the
interrupt code to try 3 times to catch up with the lost time. If that
fails use the total time spent in the interrupt handler to defer the
next timer interrupt so the system can catch up with other things
which got delayed. Limit that deferment to 100ms.
The retry events and the maximum time spent in the interrupt handler
are recorded and exposed via /proc/timer_list
Inspired by a patch from Marcelo.

In the dynamic tick code, "max_delta_ns" (member of the
"clock_event_device" structure) represents the maximum sleep time
that can occur between timer events in nanoseconds.
The variable, "max_delta_ns", is defined as an unsigned long
which is a 32-bit integer for 32-bit machines and a 64-bit
integer for 64-bit machines (if -m64 option is used for gcc).
The value of max_delta_ns is set by calling the function
"clockevent_delta2ns()" which returns a maximum value of LONG_MAX.
For a 32-bit machine LONG_MAX is equal to 0x7fffffff and in
nanoseconds this equates to ~2.15 seconds. Hence, the maximum
sleep time for a 32-bit machine is ~2.15 seconds, where as for
a 64-bit machine it will be many years.
This patch changes the type of max_delta_ns to be "u64" instead of
"unsigned long" so that this variable is a 64-bit type for both 32-bit
and 64-bit machines. It also changes the maximum value returned by
clockevent_delta2ns() to KTIME_MAX. Hence this allows a 32-bit
machine to sleep for longer than ~2.15 seconds. Please note that this
patch also changes "min_delta_ns" to be "u64" too and although this is
unnecessary, it makes the patch simpler as it avoids to fixup all
callers of clockevent_delta2ns().
[ tglx: changed "unsigned long long" to u64 as we use this data type
through out the time code ]

The mult and shift factors of clock events differ in their data type
from those of clock sources for no reason. u32 is sufficient for
both. shift is always <= 32 and mult is limited to 2^32-1 to avoid
64bit multiplication overflows in the conversion.
Preparatory patch for a generic mult/shift factor calculation
function.

KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller
forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.
This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.
* off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
is fixed.
* Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
trailing '\0'. Fix it.
