kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of attribute((...))

2014-04-07T23:36:11Z

To increase compiler portability there is which provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes with the right macro in the kernel subsystem. Signed-off-by: Gideon Israel Dsouza Cc: "Rafael J.

time: Revert to calling clock_was_set_delayed() while in irq context

2014-03-28T07:07:07Z

In commit 47a1b796306356f35 ("tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock"), we moved to calling clock_was_set() due to the fact that we were no longer holding the timekeeping or jiffies lock. However, there is still the problem that clock_was_set() triggers an IPI, which cannot be done from the timer's hard irq context, and will generate WARN_ON warnings. Apparently in my earlier testing, I'm guessing I didn't bump the dmesg log level, so I somehow missed the WARN_ONs. Thus we need to revert back to calling clock_was_set_delayed().

timekeeping: Remove comment that's mostly out of date

2013-12-23T20:53:22Z

Prior to 92bb1fcf57a0c2e45f7e67fbf0a8ed475a749236 (Only do nanosecond rounding on GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD systems), the comment here was accuate, but now we can mostly avoid the extra rounding which causes the unlikey to be actually likely here. So remove the out of date comment. Signed-off-by: John Stultz

timekeeping: Fix missing timekeeping_update in suspend path

2013-12-23T19:54:35Z

Since 48cdc135d4840 (Implement a shadow timekeeper), we have to call timekeeping_update() after any adjustment to the timekeeping structure in order to make sure that any adjustments to the structure persist. In the timekeeping suspend path, we udpate the timekeeper structure, so we should be sure to update the shadow-timekeeper before releasing the timekeeping locks. Currently this isn't done. In most cases, the next time related code to run would be timekeeping_resume, which does update the shadow-timekeeper, but in an abundence of caution, this patch adds the call to timekeeping_update() in the suspend path.

timekeeping: Fix CLOCK_TAI timer/nanosleep delays

2013-12-23T19:54:34Z

A think-o in the calculation of the monotonic -> tai time offset results in CLOCK_TAI timers and nanosleeps to expire late (the latency is ~2x the tai offset). Fix this by adding the tai offset from the realtime offset instead of subtracting.

tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock

2013-12-23T19:54:32Z

Since the xtime lock was split into the timekeeping lock and the jiffies lock, we no longer need to call update_wall_time() while holding the jiffies lock. Thus, this patch splits update_wall_time() out from do_timer(). This allows us to get away from calling clock_was_set_delayed() in update_wall_time() and instead use the standard clock_was_set() call that previously would deadlock, as it causes the jiffies lock to be acquired.

timekeeping: Avoid possible deadlock from clock_was_set_delayed

2013-12-23T19:53:33Z

As part of normal operaions, the hrtimer subsystem frequently calls into the timekeeping code, creating a locking order of hrtimer locks -> timekeeping locks clock_was_set_delayed() was suppoed to allow us to avoid deadlocks between the timekeeping the hrtimer subsystem, so that we could notify the hrtimer subsytem the time had changed while holding the timekeeping locks. This was done by scheduling delayed work that would run later once we were out of the timekeeing code. But unfortunately the lock chains are complex enoguh that in scheduling delayed work, we end up eventually trying to grab an hrtimer lock. Sasha Levin noticed this in testing when the new seqlock lockdep enablement triggered the following (somewhat abrieviated) message: [ 251.100221] ====================================================== [ 251.100221] [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] [ 251.100221] 3.13.0-rc2-next-20131206-sasha-00005-g8be2375-dirty #4053 Not tainted [ 251.101967] ------------------------------------------------------- [ 251.101967] kworker/10:1/4506 is trying to acquire lock: [ 251.101967] (timekeeper_seq){----..}, at: [] retrigger_next_event+0x56/0x70 [ 251.101967] [ 251.101967] but task is already holding lock: [ 251.101967] (hrtimer_bases.lock#11){-.-...}, at: [] retrigger_next_event+0x3c/0x70 [ 251.101967] [ 251.101967] which lock already depends on the new lock.

This works for the case here, where the do_adjtimex() was the deadlock trigger point. Unfortuantely, in update_wall_time() we still hold the jiffies lock, which would deadlock with the ipi triggered by clock_was_set(), preventing us from calling it even after we drop the timekeeping lock. So instead call clock_was_set_delayed() at that point.

timekeeping: Fix potential lost pv notification of time change

2013-12-23T19:53:26Z

In 780427f0e11 (Indicate that clock was set in the pvclock gtod notifier), logic was added to pass a CLOCK_WAS_SET notification to the pvclock notifier chain. While that patch added a action flag returned from accumulate_nsecs_to_secs(), it only uses the returned value in one location, and not in the logarithmic accumulation. This means if a leap second triggered during the logarithmic accumulation (which is most likely where it would happen), the notification that the clock was set would not make it to the pv notifiers. This patch extends the logarithmic_accumulation pass down that action flag so proper notification will occur. This patch also changes the varialbe action -> clock_set per Ingo's suggestion.
