201c2f85bd perf/core: Don't leak event in the syscall error path
In the error path, event_file not being NULL is used to determine
whether the event itself still needs to be free'd, so fix it up to
avoid leaking.

Fix this by always updating time if EVENT_TIME was set, as opposed to
only updating time when EVENT_TIME changed.

8184059e93 perf/core: Fix Undefined behaviour in rb_alloc()
Sasha reported:

 [ 3494.030114] UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/events/ring_buffer.c:685:22
 [ 3494.030647] shift exponent -1 is negative

Andrey spotted that this is because:

  It happens if nr_pages = 0:
     rb->page_order = ilog2(nr_pages);

Fix it by making both assignments conditional on nr_pages; since
otherwise they should both be 0 anyway, and will be because of the
kzalloc() used to allocate the structure.

91a612eea9 perf/core: Fix dynamic interrupt throttle
There were two problems with the dynamic interrupt throttle mechanism,
both triggered by the same action.

When you (or perf_fuzzer) write a huge value into
/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate the computed
perf_sample_allowed_ns becomes 0. This effectively disables the whole
dynamic throttle.

This is fixed by ensuring update_perf_cpu_limits() never sets the
value to 0. However, we allow disabling of the dynamic throttle by
writing 100 to /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent. This will
generate a warning in dmesg.

The second problem is that by setting the max_sample_rate to a huge
number, the adaptive process can take a few tries, since it halfs the
limit each time. Change that to directly compute a new value based on
the observed duration.

1e02cd40f1 perf/core: Fix the unthrottle logic
Its possible to IOC_PERIOD while the event is throttled, this would
re-start the event and the next tick would then try to unthrottle it,
and find the event wasn't actually stopped anymore.

This would tickle a WARN in the x86-pmu code which isn't expecting to
start a !stopped event.

710d60cbf1 Merge branch 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull cpu hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This is the first part of the ongoing cpu hotplug rework:

   - Initial implementation of the state machine

   - Runs all online and prepare down callbacks on the plugged cpu and
     not on some random processor

   - Replaces busy loop waiting with completions

   - Adds tracepoints so the states can be followed"

More detailed commentary on this work from an earlier email:
 "What's wrong with the current cpu hotplug infrastructure?

   - Asymmetry

     The hotplug notifier mechanism is asymmetric versus the bringup and
     teardown.  This is mostly caused by the notifier mechanism.

   - Largely undocumented dependencies

     While some notifiers use explicitely defined notifier priorities,
     we have quite some notifiers which use numerical priorities to
     express dependencies without any documentation why.

   - Control processor driven

     Most of the bringup/teardown of a cpu is driven by a control
     processor.  While it is understandable, that preperatory steps,
     like idle thread creation, memory allocation for and initialization
     of essential facilities needs to be done before a cpu can boot,
     there is no reason why everything else must run on a control
     processor.  Before this patch series, bringup looks like this:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu

       bring the rest up

   - All or nothing approach

     There is no way to do partial bringups.  That's something which is
     really desired because we waste e.g.  at boot substantial amount of
     time just busy waiting that the cpu comes to life.  That's stupid
     as we could very well do preparatory steps and the initial IPI for
     other cpus and then go back and do the necessary low level
     synchronization with the freshly booted cpu.

   - Minimal debuggability

     Due to the notifier based design, it's impossible to switch between
     two stages of the bringup/teardown back and forth in order to test
     the correctness.  So in many hotplug notifiers the cancel
     mechanisms are either not existant or completely untested.

   - Notifier [un]registering is tedious

     To [un]register notifiers we need to protect against hotplug at
     every callsite.  There is no mechanism that bringup/teardown
     callbacks are issued on the online cpus, so every caller needs to
     do it itself.  That also includes error rollback.

  What's the new design?

     The base of the new design is a symmetric state machine, where both
     the control processor and the booting/dying cpu execute a well
     defined set of states.  Each state is symmetric in the end, except
     for some well defined exceptions, and the bringup/teardown can be
     stopped and reversed at almost all states.

     So the bringup of a cpu will look like this in the future:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu

                                       bring itself up

     The synchronization step does not require the control cpu to wait.
     That mechanism can be done asynchronously via a worker or some
     other mechanism.

     The teardown can be made very similar, so that the dying cpu cleans
     up and brings itself down.  Cleanups which need to be done after
     the cpu is gone, can be scheduled asynchronously as well.

  There is a long way to this, as we need to refactor the notion when a
  cpu is available.  Today we set the cpu online right after it comes
  out of the low level bringup, which is not really correct.

  The proper mechanism is to set it to available, i.e. cpu local
  threads, like softirqd, hotplug thread etc. can be scheduled on that
  cpu, and once it finished all booting steps, it's set to online, so
  general workloads can be scheduled on it.  The reverse happens on
  teardown.  First thing to do is to forbid scheduling of general
  workloads, then teardown all the per cpu resources and finally shut it
  off completely.

  This patch series implements the basic infrastructure for this at the
  core level.  This includes the following:

   - Basic state machine implementation with well defined states, so
     ordering and prioritization can be expressed.

   - Interfaces to [un]register state callbacks

     This invokes the bringup/teardown callback on all online cpus with
     the proper protection in place and [un]installs the callbacks in
     the state machine array.

     For callbacks which have no particular ordering requirement we have
     a dynamic state space, so that drivers don't have to register an
     explicit hotplug state.

     If a callback fails, the code automatically does a rollback to the
     previous state.

   - Sysfs interface to drive the state machine to a particular step.

     This is only partially functional today.  Full functionality and
     therefor testability will be achieved once we converted all
     existing hotplug notifiers over to the new scheme.

   - Run all CPU_ONLINE/DOWN_PREPARE notifiers on the booting/dying
     processor:

       Control CPU                     Booting CPU

       do preparatory steps
       kick cpu into life

                                       do low level init

       sync with booting cpu           sync with control cpu
       wait for boot
                                       bring itself up

                                       Signal completion to control cpu

     In a previous step of this work we've done a full tree mechanical
     conversion of all hotplug notifiers to the new scheme.  The balance
     is a net removal of about 4000 lines of code.

     This is not included in this series, as we decided to take a
     different approach.  Instead of mechanically converting everything
     over, we will do a proper overhaul of the usage sites one by one so
     they nicely fit into the symmetric callback scheme.

     I decided to do that after I looked at the ugliness of some of the
     converted sites and figured out that their hotplug mechanism is
     completely buggered anyway.  So there is no point to do a
     mechanical conversion first as we need to go through the usage
     sites one by one again in order to achieve a full symmetric and
     testable behaviour"

     (Borislav Petkov)

   - Update various x86 PMU constraint and hw support details (Stephane

   - Optimize kprobes for BPF execution (Martin KaFai Lau)

   - Rewrite, refactor and fix the Intel uncore PMU driver code (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - Rewrite, refactor and fix the Intel RAPL PMU code (Thomas Gleixner)

   - Various fixes and smaller cleanups.

  There are lots of perf tooling updates as well.  A few highlights:

  perf report/top:

     - Hierarchy histogram mode for 'perf top' and 'perf report',
       showing multiple levels, one per --sort entry: (Namhyung Kim)

       On a mostly idle system:

         # perf top --hierarchy -s comm,dso

       Then expand some levels and use 'P' to take a snapshot:

         # cat perf.hist.0
         -  92.32%         perf
               58.20%         perf
               22.29%         libc-2.22.so
                5.97%         [kernel]
                4.18%         libelf-0.165.so
                1.69%         [unknown]
         -   4.71%         qemu-system-x86
                3.10%         [kernel]
                1.60%         qemu-system-x86_64 (deleted)
         +   2.97%         swapper
         #

     - Add 'L' hotkey to dynamicly set the percent threshold for
       histogram entries and callchains, i.e.  dynamicly do what the
       --percent-limit command line option to 'top' and 'report' does.
       (Namhyung Kim)

  perf mem:

     - Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing
       what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri
       Olsa)

  perf record:

     - Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one
       can tell that all the events in the command line should be
       restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.:

         perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u

       is equivalent to:

         perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions

     - Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header:

         $ perf record usleep 1
         [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
         [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
         $ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8
         # CPU cache info:
         #  L1 Data                 32K [0-1]
         #  L1 Instruction          32K [0-1]
         #  L1 Data                 32K [2-3]
         #  L1 Instruction          32K [2-3]
         #  L2 Unified             256K [0-1]
         #  L2 Unified             256K [2-3]
         #  L3 Unified            4096K [0-3]

       Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to
       allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple
       machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference.
       (Jiri Olsa)

     - Improved support for Java, using the JVMTI agent library to do
       jitdumps that then will be inserted in synthesized
       PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events via 'perf inject' pointed to synthesized
       ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow
       symbol resolution and even annotation with source line info, see
       the changeset comments to see how to use it (Stephane Eranian)

  perf script/trace:

     - Decode data_src values (e.g.  perf.data files generated by 'perf
       mem record') in 'perf script': (Jiri Olsa)

         # perf script
           perf 693 [1] 4.088652: 1 cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: ffff88007d0b0f40 68100142 L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No <SNIP>
                                                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
     - Improve support to 'data_src', 'weight' and 'addr' fields in
       'perf script' (Jiri Olsa)

     - Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running
       python or perl scripts (Taeung Song)

  perf stat:

     - 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in
       interval mode too.  E.g:

         # perf stat -I 1000 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
         #         time   counts unit events
            1.000215928  519,620      instructions     #  0.69 insn per cycle
            1.000215928  752,003      cycles
         <SNIP>

     - Port 'perf kvm stat' to PowerPC (Hemant Kumar)

     - Implement CSV metrics output in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)

  perf BPF support:

     - Support converting data from bpf events in 'perf data' (Wang Nan)

     - Print bpf-output events in 'perf script': (Wang Nan).

         # perf record -e bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ -e ./test_bpf_output_3.c/map:channel.event=evt/ usleep 1000
         # perf script
            usleep  4882 21384.532523:   evt:  ffffffff810e97d1 sys_nanosleep ([kernel.kallsyms])
             BPF output: 0000: 52 61 69 73 65 20 61 20  Raise a
                         0008: 42 50 46 20 65 76 65 6e  BPF even
                         0010: 74 21 00 00              t!..
             BPF string: "Raise a BPF event!"
         #

     - Add API to set values of map entries in a BPF object, be it
       individual map slots or ranges (Wang Nan)

     - Introduce support for the 'bpf-output' event (Wang Nan)

     - Add glue to read perf events in a BPF program (Wang Nan)

     - Improve support for bpf-output events in 'perf trace' (Wang Nan)

Pull read-only kernel memory updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree adds two (security related) enhancements to the kernel's
  handling of read-only kernel memory:

   - extend read-only kernel memory to a new class of formerly writable
     kernel data: 'post-init read-only memory' via the __ro_after_init
     attribute, and mark the ARM and x86 vDSO as such read-only memory.

     This kind of attribute can be used for data that requires a once
     per bootup initialization sequence, but is otherwise never modified
     after that point.

     This feature was based on the work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler.

     (by Kees Cook, the ARM vDSO bits by David Brown.)

   - make CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA always enabled on x86 and remove the
     Kconfig option.  This simplifies the kernel and also signals that
     read-only memory is the default model and a first-class citizen.

on work in progress patches.

As a result cpu down can fail, because rcu synchronization in takedown_cpu()
eventually requires a functional softirq thread. I never encountered the
problem in testing, but 0day testing managed to provide a reliable reproducer.

Remove the smpboot_threads_park() call from the state machine for now and put
it back into the original place after the rcu synchronization.

I'm embarrassed as I knew about the dependency and still managed to get it
wrong. Hotplug induced brain melt seems to be the only sensible explanation
for that.

ac343e882a memremap: check pfn validity before passing to pfn_to_page()
In memremap's helper function try_ram_remap(), we dereference a struct
page pointer that was derived from a PFN that is known to be covered by
a 'System RAM' iomem region, and is thus assumed to be a 'valid' PFN,
i.e., a PFN that has a struct page associated with it and is covered by
the kernel direct mapping.

However, the assumption that there is a 1:1 relation between the System
RAM iomem region and the kernel direct mapping is not universally valid
on all architectures, and on ARM and arm64, 'System RAM' may include
regions for which pfn_valid() returns false.

Generally speaking, both __va() and pfn_to_page() should only ever be
called on PFNs/physical addresses for which pfn_valid() returns true, so
add that check to try_ram_remap().

e1b77c9298 sched/kasan: remove stale KASAN poison after hotplug
Functions which the compiler has instrumented for KASAN place poison on
the stack shadow upon entry and remove this poision prior to returning.

In the case of CPU hotplug, CPUs exit the kernel a number of levels deep
in C code.  Any instrumented functions on this critical path will leave
portions of the stack shadow poisoned.

When a CPU is subsequently brought back into the kernel via a different
path, depending on stackframe, layout calls to instrumented functions
may hit this stale poison, resulting in (spurious) KASAN splats to the
console.

To avoid this, clear any stale poison from the idle thread for a CPU
prior to bringing a CPU online.

29b75eb2d5 futex: Replace barrier() in unqueue_me() with READ_ONCE()
Commit e91467ecd1 ("bug in futex unqueue_me") introduced a barrier() in
unqueue_me() to prevent the compiler from rereading the lock pointer which
might change after a check for NULL.

Replace the barrier() with a READ_ONCE() for the following reasons:

1) READ_ONCE() is a weaker form of barrier() that affects only the specific
   load operation, while barrier() is a general compiler level memory barrier.
   READ_ONCE() was not available at the time when the barrier was added.

2) Aside of that READ_ONCE() is descriptive and self explainatory while a
   barrier without comment is not clear to the casual reader.

No functional change.

1f25184656 Merge branch 'timers/core-v9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks into timers/nohz
Pull nohz enhancements from Frederic Weisbecker:

"Currently in nohz full configs, the tick dependency is checked
 asynchronously by nohz code from interrupt and context switch for each
 concerned subsystem with a set of function provided by these. Such
 functions are made of many conditions and details that can be heavyweight
 as they are called on fastpath: sched_can_stop_tick(),
 posix_cpu_timer_can_stop_tick(), perf_event_can_stop_tick()...

 Thomas suggested a few months ago to make that tick dependency check
 synchronous. Instead of checking subsystems details from each interrupt
 to guess if the tick can be stopped, every subsystem that may have a tick
 dependency should set itself a flag specifying the state of that
 dependency. This way we can verify if we can stop the tick with a single
 lightweight mask check on fast path.

 This conversion from a pull to a push model to implement tick dependency
 is the core feature of this patchset that is split into:

  * Nohz wide kick simplification
  * Improve nohz tracing
  * Introduce tick dependency mask
  * Migrate scheduler, posix timers, perf events and sched clock tick
    dependencies to the tick dependency mask."

f9c904b761 sched/cputime: Fix steal_account_process_tick() to always return jiffies
The callers of steal_account_process_tick() expect it to return
whether a jiffy should be considered stolen or not.

Currently the return value of steal_account_process_tick() is in
units of cputime, which vary between either jiffies or nsecs
depending on CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN.

If cputime has nsecs granularity and there is a tiny amount of
stolen time (a few nsecs, say) then we will consider the entire
tick stolen and will not account the tick on user/system/idle,
causing /proc/stats to show invalid data.

The fix is to change steal_account_process_tick() to accumulate
the stolen time and only account it once it's worth a jiffy.

(Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for suggestions to fix a bug in my
first version of the patch.)

72f9f3fdc9 sched/deadline: Remove dl_new from struct sched_dl_entity
The dl_new field of struct sched_dl_entity is currently used to
identify new deadline tasks, so that their deadline and runtime
can be properly initialised.

However, these tasks can be easily identified by checking if
their deadline is smaller than the current time when they switch
to SCHED_DEADLINE. So, dl_new can be removed by introducing this
check in switched_to_dl(); this allows to simplify the
SCHED_DEADLINE code.

927a557085 perf/core: Fix perf_sched_count derailment
The error path in perf_event_open() is such that asking for a sampling
event on a PMU that doesn't generate interrupts will end up in dropping
the perf_sched_count even though it hasn't been incremented for this
event yet.

Given a sufficient amount of these calls, we'll end up disabling
scheduler's jump label even though we'd still have active events in the
system, thereby facilitating the arrival of the infernal regions upon us.

I'm fixing this by moving account_event() inside perf_event_alloc().

GCC clearly is unable to recognize that the 'do_interp' boolean tracks
the initialization status of 'clock_was_set_seq'.

The GCC version used was:

  gcc version 5.3.1 20151207 (Red Hat 5.3.1-2) (GCC)

Work it around by initializing clock_was_set_seq to 0. Compilers that
are able to recognize the code flow will eliminate the unnecessary
initialization.

e57cbaf0eb tracing: Do not have 'comm' filter override event 'comm' field
Commit 9f61668073 "tracing: Allow triggers to filter for CPU ids and
process names" added a 'comm' filter that will filter events based on the
current tasks struct 'comm'. But this now hides the ability to filter events
that have a 'comm' field too. For example, sched_migrate_task trace event.
That has a 'comm' field of the task to be migrated.

 echo 'comm == "bash"' > events/sched_migrate_task/filter

will now filter all sched_migrate_task events for tasks named "bash" that
migrates other tasks (in interrupt context), instead of seeing when "bash"
itself gets migrated.

This fix requires a couple of changes.

1) Change the look up order for filter predicates to look at the events
   fields before looking at the generic filters.

2) Instead of basing the filter function off of the "comm" name, have the
   generic "comm" filter have its own filter_type (FILTER_COMM). Test
   against the type instead of the name to assign the filter function.

3) Add a new "COMM" filter that works just like "comm" but will filter based
   on the current task, even if the trace event contains a "comm" field.

Do the same for "cpu" field, adding a FILTER_CPU and a filter "CPU".

82e88ff1ea hrtimer: Revert CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW support
Revert commits:
a6e707ddbd: KVM: arm/arm64: timer: Switch to CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
9006a01829: hrtimer: Catch illegal clockids
9c808765e8: hrtimer: Add support for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW

Marc found out, that there are fundamental issues with that patch series
because __hrtimer_get_next_event() and hrtimer_forward() need support for
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW. Nothing which is easily fixed, so revert the whole lot.

71f87b2fc6 cpu/hotplug: Plug death reporting race
Paul noticed that the conversion of the death reporting introduced a race
where the outgoing cpu might be delayed after waking the controll processor,
so it might not be able to call rcu_report_dead() before being physically
removed, leading to RCU stalls.

We cant call complete after rcu_report_dead(), so instead of going back to
busy polling, simply issue a function call to do the completion.

2c756feb18 time: Add history to cross timestamp interface supporting slower devices
Another representative use case of time sync and the correlated
clocksource (in addition to PTP noted above) is PTP synchronized
audio.

In a streaming application, as an example, samples will be sent and/or
received by multiple devices with a presentation time that is in terms
of the PTP master clock. Synchronizing the audio output on these
devices requires correlating the audio clock with the PTP master
clock. The more precise this correlation is, the better the audio
quality (i.e. out of sync audio sounds bad).

From an application standpoint, to correlate the PTP master clock with
the audio device clock, the system clock is used as a intermediate
timebase. The transforms such an application would perform are:

    System Clock <-> Audio clock
    System Clock <-> Network Device Clock [<-> PTP Master Clock]

Modern Intel platforms can perform a more accurate cross timestamp in
hardware (ART,audio device clock).  The audio driver requires
ART->system time transforms -- the same as required for the network
driver. These platforms offload audio processing (including
cross-timestamps) to a DSP which to ensure uninterrupted audio
processing, communicates and response to the host only once every
millsecond. As a result is takes up to a millisecond for the DSP to
receive a request, the request is processed by the DSP, the audio
output hardware is polled for completion, the result is copied into
shared memory, and the host is notified. All of these operation occur
on a millisecond cadence.  This transaction requires about 2 ms, but
under heavier workloads it may take up to 4 ms.

Adding a history allows these slow devices the option of providing an
ART value outside of the current interval. In this case, the callback
provided is an accessor function for the previously obtained counter
value. If get_system_device_crosststamp() receives a counter value
previous to cycle_last, it consults the history provided as an
argument in history_ref and interpolates the realtime and monotonic
raw system time using the provided counter value. If there are any
clock discontinuities, e.g. from calling settimeofday(), the monotonic
raw time is interpolated in the usual way, but the realtime clock time
is adjusted by scaling the monotonic raw adjustment.

When an accessor function is used a history argument *must* be
provided. The history is initialized using ktime_get_snapshot() and
must be called before the counter values are read.

8006c24595 time: Add driver cross timestamp interface for higher precision time synchronization
ACKNOWLEDGMENT: cross timestamp code was developed by Thomas Gleixner
<tglx@linutronix.de>. It has changed considerably and any mistakes are
mine.

The precision with which events on multiple networked systems can be
synchronized using, as an example, PTP (IEEE 1588, 802.1AS) is limited
by the precision of the cross timestamps between the system clock and
the device (timestamp) clock. Precision here is the degree of
simultaneity when capturing the cross timestamp.

Currently the PTP cross timestamp is captured in software using the
PTP device driver ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET. Reads of the device clock are
interleaved with reads of the realtime clock. At best, the precision
of this cross timestamp is on the order of several microseconds due to
software latencies. Sub-microsecond precision is required for
industrial control and some media applications. To achieve this level
of precision hardware supported cross timestamping is needed.

The function get_device_system_crosstimestamp() allows device drivers
to return a cross timestamp with system time properly scaled to
nanoseconds.  The realtime value is needed to discipline that clock
using PTP and the monotonic raw value is used for applications that
don't require a "real" time, but need an unadjusted clock time.  The
get_device_system_crosstimestamp() code calls back into the driver to
ensure that the system counter is within the current timekeeping
update interval.

Modern Intel hardware provides an Always Running Timer (ART) which is
exactly related to TSC through a known frequency ratio. The ART is
routed to devices on the system and is used to precisely and
simultaneously capture the device clock with the ART.

ba26621e63 time: Remove duplicated code in ktime_get_raw_and_real()
The code in ktime_get_snapshot() is a superset of the code in
ktime_get_raw_and_real() code. Further, ktime_get_raw_and_real() is
called only by the PPS code, pps_get_ts(). Consolidate the
pps_get_ts() code into a single function calling ktime_get_snapshot()
and eliminate ktime_get_raw_and_real(). A side effect of this is that
the raw and real results of pps_get_ts() correspond to exactly the
same clock cycle. Previously these values represented separate reads
of the system clock.

9da0f49c87 time: Add timekeeping snapshot code capturing system time and counter
In the current timekeeping code there isn't any interface to
atomically capture the current relationship between the system counter
and system time. ktime_get_snapshot() returns this triple (counter,
monotonic raw, realtime) in the system_time_snapshot struct.

6bd58f09e1 time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation
The timekeeping code does not currently provide a way to translate
externally provided clocksource cycles to system time. The cycle count
is always provided by the result clocksource read() method internal to
the timekeeping code. The added function timekeeping_cycles_to_ns()
calculated a nanosecond value from a cycle count that can be added to
tk_read_base.base value yielding the current system time. This allows
clocksource cycle values external to the timekeeping code to provide a
cycle count that can be transformed to system time.
