3434d23b69 clockevents: Add helpers to check the state of a clockevent device
Some clockevent drivers, once migrated to use per-state callbacks,
need to check the state of the clockevent device in their callbacks or
interrupt handler.

Add accessor functions clockevent_state_*() to get this information.

8fff52fd50 clockevents: Introduce CLOCK_EVT_STATE_ONESHOT_STOPPED state
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.

clockevents_notify() is a leftover from the early design of the

it's a multiplex call. We are way better off to have explicit

Split out the cleanup function for a dead cpu and invoke it

CPU_HOTPLUG as well.

Temporary change, will be refined in the future.

7270d11c56 arm/bL_switcher: Kill tick suspend hackery
Use the new tick_suspend/resume_local() and get rid of the
homebrewn implementation of these in the ARM bL switcher.  The
check for the cpumask is completely pointless.  There is no harm
to suspend a per cpu tick device unconditionally.  If that's a
real issue then we fix it proper at the core level and not with
some completely undocumented hacks in some random core code.

Move the tick internals to the core code, now that this nuisance
is gone.

77e32c89a7 clockevents: Manage device's state separately for the core
'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.

554ef3876c clockevents: Handle tick device's resume separately
Upcoming patch will redefine possible states of a clockevent
device. The RESUME mode is a special case only for tick's
clockevent devices. In future it can be replaced by ->resume()
callback already available for clockevent devices.

Lets handle it separately so that clockevents_set_mode() only
handles states valid across all devices. This also renames
set_mode_resume() to tick_resume() to make it more explicit.

bd624d75db clockevents: Introduce mode specific callbacks
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.

5d1638acb9 tick: Introduce hrtimer based broadcast
On some architectures, in certain CPU deep idle states the local timers stop.
An external clock device is used to wakeup these CPUs. The kernel support for the
wakeup of these CPUs is provided by the tick broadcast framework by using the
external clock device as the wakeup source.

However not all implementations of architectures provide such an external
clock device. This patch includes support in the broadcast framework to handle
the wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle states on such systems by queuing a hrtimer
on one of the CPUs, which is meant to handle the wakeup of CPUs in deep idle states.

This patchset introduces a pseudo clock device which can be registered by the
archs as tick_broadcast_device in the absence of a real external clock
device. Once registered, the broadcast framework will work as is for these
architectures as long as the archs take care of the BROADCAST_ENTER
notification failing for one of the CPUs. This CPU is made the stand by CPU to
handle wakeup of the CPUs in deep idle and it *must not enter deep idle states*.

The CPU with the earliest wakeup is chosen to be this CPU. Hence this way the
stand by CPU dynamically moves around and so does the hrtimer which is queued
to trigger at the next earliest wakeup time. This is consistent with the case where
an external clock device is present. The smp affinity of this clock device is
set to the CPU with the earliest wakeup. This patchset handles the hotplug of
the stand by CPU as well by moving the hrtimer on to the CPU handling the CPU_DEAD
notification.

da7e6f45c3 time: Change the return type of clockevents_notify() to integer
The broadcast framework can potentially be made use of by archs which do not have an
external clock device as well. Then, it is required that one of the CPUs need
to handle the broadcasting of wakeup IPIs to the CPUs in deep idle. As a
result its local timers should remain functional all the time. For such
a CPU, the BROADCAST_ENTER notification has to fail indicating that its clock
device cannot be shutdown. To make way for this support, change the return
type of tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() and hence clockevents_notify() to
indicate such scenarios.

4dbad816fe timer: move enum definition out of ifdef section
The next patch will setup automatically the broadcast timer for
the different cpuidle driver when one idle state stops its timer.
This will be part of the generic code.

But some ARM boards, like s3c64xx, uses cpuidle but without the
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_BUILD set. Hence the cpuidle framework
will be compiled with the code supposed to be generic, that is
with clockevents_notify and the different enum.

Also the function clockevents_notify is a noop macro, this is fine
except the usual code is:

	int cpu = smp_processor_id();
	clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ON, &cpu);

and that raises a warning for the variable cpu which is not used.

Move the clock_event_nofitiers enum definition out of the
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_BUILD section to prevent a compilation
error when these are used in the code.

Change the clockevents_notify macro to a static inline noop function
to prevent a compilation warning.

eaa907c546 tick: Provide a check for a forced broadcast pending
On the CPU which gets woken along with the target CPU of the broadcast
the following happens:

  deep_idle()
			<-- spurious wakeup
  broadcast_exit()
    set forced bit
  
  enable interrupts
    
			<-- Nothing happens

  disable interrupts

  broadcast_enter()
			<-- Here we observe the forced bit is set
  deep_idle()

Now after that the target CPU of the broadcast runs the broadcast
handler and finds the other CPU in both the broadcast and the forced
mask, sends the IPI and stuff gets back to normal.

So it's not actually harmful, just more evidence for the theory, that
hardware designers have access to very special drug supplies.

Now there is no point in going back to deep idle just to wake up again
right away via an IPI. Provide a check which allows the idle code to
avoid the deep idle transition.

d2348fb6fd tick: Dynamically set broadcast irq affinity
When a cpu goes to a deep idle state where its local timer is
shutdown, it notifies the time frame work to use the broadcast timer
instead.  Unfortunately, the broadcast device could wake up any CPU,
including an idle one which is not concerned by the wake up at all. So
in the worst case an idle CPU will wake up to send an IPI to the CPU
whose timer expired.

Provide an opt-in feature CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ which tells the core
that is should set the interrupt affinity of the broadcast interrupt
to the cpu which has the earliest expiry time. This avoids unnecessary
spurious wakeups and IPIs.

12ad100046 clockevents: Add generic timer broadcast function
Currently, the timer broadcast mechanism is defined by a function
pointer on struct clock_event_device. As the fundamental mechanism for
broadcast is architecture-specific, this means that clock_event_device
drivers cannot be shared across multiple architectures.

This patch adds an (optional) architecture-specific function for timer

12572dbb53 clockevents: Add generic timer broadcast receiver
Currently the broadcast mechanism used for timers is abstracted by a

d1748302f7 clockevents: Make minimum delay adjustments configurable
The automatic increase of the min_delta_ns of a clockevents device

In addition not all architectures want the automatic adjustment, on a
massively virtualized system it can happen that the programming of a
clock event fails several times in a row because the virtual cpu has
been rescheduled quickly enough. In that case the minimum delay will
erroneously be increased with no way back. The new config symbol

adjustment. The config option is selected only for x86.

97813f2fe7 nohz: Allow 32-bit machines to sleep for more than 2.15 seconds
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().

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

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

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

6ff7041dbf hrtimer: Fix migration expiry check
The timer migration expiry check should prevent the migration of a
timer to another CPU when the timer expires before the next event is
scheduled on the other CPU. Migrating the timer might delay it because
we can not reprogram the clock event device on the other CPU. But the
code implementing that check has two flaws:

- for !HIGHRES the check compares the expiry value with the clock
  events device expiry value which is wrong for CLOCK_REALTIME based
  timers.

- the check is racy. It holds the hrtimer base lock of the target CPU,
  but the clock event device expiry value can be modified
  nevertheless, e.g. by an timer interrupt firing.

The !HIGHRES case is easy to fix as we can enqueue the timer on the
cpu which was selected by the load balancer. It runs the idle
balancing code once per jiffy anyway. So the maximum delay for the
timer is the same as when we keep the tick on the current cpu going.

In the HIGHRES case we can get the next expiry value from the hrtimer
cpu_base of the target CPU and serialize the update with the cpu_base
lock. This moves the lock section in hrtimer_interrupt() so we can set
next_event to KTIME_MAX while we are handling the expired timers and
set it to the next expiry value after we handled the timers under the
base lock. While the expired timers are processed timer migration is
blocked because the expiry time of the timer is always <= KTIME_MAX.

Also remove the now useless clockevents_get_next_event() function.

eea08f32ad timers: Logic to move non pinned timers
* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-04-16 12:11:36]:

This patch migrates all non pinned timers and hrtimers to the current
idle load balancer, from all the idle CPUs. Timers firing on busy CPUs
are not migrated.

While migrating hrtimers, care should be taken to check if migrating
a hrtimer would result in a latency or not. So we compare the expiry of the
hrtimer with the next timer interrupt on the target cpu and migrate the
hrtimer only if it expires *after* the next interrupt on the target cpu.
So, added a clockevents_get_next_event() helper function to return the
next_event on the target cpu's clock_event_device.

94df7de028 hrtimers: allow the hot-unplugging of all cpus
Impact: fix CPU hotplug hang on Power6 testbox

On architectures that support offlining all cpus (at least powerpc/pseries),
hot-unpluging the tick_do_timer_cpu can result in a system hang.

This comes from the fact that if the cpu going down happens to be the
cpu doing the tick, then as the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happens after the
cpu is dead (via the CPU_DEAD notification), we're left without ticks,
jiffies are frozen and any task relying on timers (msleep, ...) is stuck.
That's particularly the case for the cpu looping in __cpu_die() waiting
for the dying cpu to be dead.

This patch addresses this by having the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happen
earlier during the CPU_DYING notification. For this, a new clockevent
notification type is introduced (CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_CPU_DYING) which is triggered
in hrtimer_cpu_notify().

clockevents_register_device() if it's not set.

7c1e768974 clockevents: prevent clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop
There is a ordering related problem with clockevents code, due to which
clockevents_register_device() called after tickless/highres switch
will not work. The new clockevent ends up with clockevents_handle_noop as
event handler, resulting in no timer activity.

The problematic path seems to be

* old device already has hrtimer_interrupt as the event_handler
* new clockevent device registers with a higher rating
* tick_check_new_device() is called
  * clockevents_exchange_device() gets called
    * old->event_handler is set to clockevents_handle_noop
  * tick_setup_device() is called for the new device
    * which sets new->event_handler using the old->event_handler which is noop.

Change the ordering so that new device inherits the proper handler.

This does not have any issue in normal case as most likely all the clockevent
devices are setup before the highres switch. But, can potentially be affecting
some corner case where HPET force detect happens after the highres switch.
This was a problem with HPET in MSI mode code that we have been experimenting
with.

1595f452f3 clockevents: introduce force broadcast notifier
The 64bit SMP bootup is slightly different to the 32bit one. It enables
the boot CPU local APIC timer before all CPUs are brought up. Some AMD C1E
systems have the C1E feature flag only set in the secondary CPU. Due to
the early enable of the boot CPU local APIC timer the APIC timer is
registered as a fully functional device. When we detect the wreckage during
the bringup of the secondary CPU, we need to force the boot CPU into
broadcast mode. 

Add a new notifier reason and implement the force broadcast in the clock
events layer.
