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
vdso_clock_mode sanity check, which effectively disables the sanity check.

Remove it now.

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.

Provide generic storage for it. The new Kconfig symbol is intermediate and
will be removed once all architectures are converted over.

<title>clocksource: Prevent double add_timer_on() for watchdog_timer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:febac332a819f0e764aa4da62757ba21d18c182b</id>
<content type='text'>
Kernel crashes inside QEMU/KVM are observed:

  kernel BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:1154!
  BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer-&gt;function) in add_timer_on().

At the same time another cpu got:

  general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI of poinson pointer 0xdead000000000200 in:

  __hlist_del at include/linux/list.h:681
  (inlined by) detach_timer at kernel/time/timer.c:818
  (inlined by) expire_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1355
  (inlined by) __run_timers at kernel/time/timer.c:1686
  (inlined by) run_timer_softirq at kernel/time/timer.c:1699

Unfortunately kernel logs are badly scrambled, stacktraces are lost.

Printing the timer-&gt;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-&gt;entry.pprev = NULL;
 raw_spin_unlock_irq(&amp;base-&gt;lock);
 call_timer_fn
  clocksource_watchdog()

					clocksource_watchdog_kthread() or
					clocksource_unbind()

					spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);
					clocksource_stop_watchdog();
					 del_timer(&amp;watchdog_timer);
					 watchdog_running = 0;
					spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);

					spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);
					clocksource_start_watchdog();
					 add_timer_on(&amp;watchdog_timer, ...);
					 watchdog_running = 1;
					spin_unlock_irqrestore(&amp;watchdog_lock, flags);

  spin_lock(&amp;watchdog_lock);
  add_timer_on(&amp;watchdog_timer, ...);
   BUG_ON(timer_pending(timer) || !timer-&gt;function);
    timer_pending() -&gt; true
    BUG()

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.

<content type='text'>
Update the time(r) core files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the
full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Philippe Ombredanne, Kate
Stewart and myself. The data has been created with two independent license
scanners and manual inspection.

The following files do not contain any direct license information and have
been omitted from the big initial SPDX changes:

  timeconst.bc: The .bc files were not touched
  time.c, timer.c, timekeeping.c: Licence was deduced from EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

As those files do not contain direct license references they fall under the
project license, i.e. GPL V2 only.

I turns out that the silly spawn kthread from worker was actually needed.

clocksource_watchdog_kthread() cannot be called directly from
clocksource_watchdog_work(), because clocksource_select() calls
timekeeping_notify() which uses stop_machine(). One cannot use
stop_machine() from a workqueue() due lock inversions wrt CPU hotplug.

Revert the patch but add a comment that explain why we jump through such
apparently silly hoops.

<title>time: Introduce one suspend clocksource to compensate the suspend time</title>

<id>urn:sha1:39232ed5a1793f67b11430c43ed8a9ed6e96c6eb</id>
<content type='text'>
On some hardware with multiple clocksources, we have coarse grained
clocksources that support the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag, but
which are less than ideal for timekeeping whereas other clocksources
can be better candidates but halt on suspend.

Currently, the timekeeping core only supports timing suspend using
CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksources if that clocksource is the
current clocksource for timekeeping.

As a result, some architectures try to implement read_persistent_clock64()
using those non-stop clocksources, but isn't really ideal, which will
introduce more duplicate code. To fix this, provide logic to allow a
registered SUSPEND_NONSTOP clocksource, which isn't the current
clocksource, to be used to calculate the suspend time.
