    tick/broadcast: Handle spurious interrupts gracefully · c4288334
    Thomas Gleixner 提交于
    Andriy reported that on a virtual machine the warning about negative
    expiry time in the clock events programming code triggered:
    
    hpet: hpet0 irq 40 for MSI
    hpet: hpet1 irq 41 for MSI
    Switching to clocksource hpet
    WARNING: at kernel/time/clockevents.c:239
    
    [<ffffffff810ce6eb>] clockevents_program_event+0xdb/0xf0
    [<ffffffff810cf211>] tick_handle_periodic_broadcast+0x41/0x50
    [<ffffffff81016525>] timer_interrupt+0x15/0x20
    
    When the second hpet is installed as a per cpu timer the broadcast
    event is not longer required and stopped, which sets the next_evt of
    the broadcast device to KTIME_MAX.
    
    If after that a spurious interrupt happens on the broadcast device,
    then the current code blindly handles it and tries to reprogram the
    broadcast device afterwards, which adds the period to
    next_evt. KTIME_MAX + period results in a negative expiry value
    causing the WARN_ON in the clockevents code to trigger.
    
    Add a proper check for the state of the broadcast device into the
    interrupt handler and return if the interrupt is spurious.
