The only user of the cycle_last validation is the x86 TSC. In order to provide NMI safe accessor functions for clock monotonic and monotonic_raw we need to do that in the core. We can't do the TSC specific if (now < cycle_last) now = cycle_last; for the other wrapping around clocksources, but TSC has CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(64) which actually does not mask out anything so if now is less than cycle_last the subtraction will give a negative result. So we can check for that in clocksource_delta() and return 0 for that case. Implement and enable it for x86 Signed-off-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: NJohn Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>

When debug preempt is enabled, preempt_disable() can be traced by function and function graph tracing. There's a place in the function graph tracer that calls trace_clock() which eventually calls cycles_2_ns() outside of the recursion protection. When cycles_2_ns() calls preempt_disable() it gets traced and the graph tracer will go into a recursive loop causing a crash or worse, a triple fault. Simple fix is to use preempt_disable_notrace() in cycles_2_ns, which makes sense because the preempt_disable() tracing may use that code too, and it tracing it, even with recursion protection is rather pointless.

On SoCs that have the calibration MSRs available, either there is no PIT, HPET or PMTIMER to calibrate against, or the PIT/HPET/PMTIMER is driven from the same clock as the TSC, so calibration is redundant and just slows down the boot. TSC rate is caculated by this formula: <maximum core-clock to bus-clock ratio> * <maximum resolved frequency> The ratio and the resolved frequency ID can be obtained from MSR.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c) are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings. As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless. This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files, and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

During some experiments with an external clock (in a FPGA), we saw that the TSC clock drifted approx. 2.5ms per second. This drift was caused by the current way of calculating the scale. In our case cpu_khz had a value of 3292725. This resulted in a scale value of 310. But when doing the calculation by hand it shows that the actual value is 310.9886188491, so a value of 311 would be more precise. With this change the value is rounded.

While running the latest Linux as guest under VMware in highly over-committed situations, we have seen cases when the refined TSC algorithm fails to get a valid tsc_start value in tsc_refine_calibration_work from multiple attempts. As a result the kernel keeps on scheduling the tsc_irqwork task for later. Subsequently after several attempts when it gets a valid start value it goes through the refined calibration and either bails out or uses the new results. Given that the kernel originally read the TSC frequency from the platform, which is the best it can get, I don't think there is much value in refining it. So for systems which get the TSC frequency from the platform we should skip the refined tsc algorithm. We can use the TSC_RELIABLE cpu cap flag to detect this, right now it is set only on VMware and for Moorestown Penwell both of which have there own TSC calibration methods.

由 Salman Qazi 提交于
When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However, when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is enough room to store the final answer. We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing the multiplication separately on the two components. Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous fix in __cycles_2_ns().

pit_expect_msb() returns success wrongly in the below SMI scenario: a. pit_verify_msb() has not yet seen the MSB transition. b. we are close to the MSB transition though and got a SMI immediately after returning from pit_verify_msb() which didn't see the MSB transition. PIT MSB transition has happened somewhere during SMI execution. c. returned from SMI and we noted down the 'tsc', saw the pit MSB change now and exited the loop to calculate 'deltatsc'. Instead of noting the TSC at the MSB transition, we are way off because of the SMI. And as the SMI happened between the pit_verify_msb() and before the 'tsc' is recorded in the for loop, 'delattsc' (d1/d2 in quick_pit_calibrate()) will be small and quick_pit_calibrate() will not notice this error. Depending on whether SMI disturbance happens while computing d1 or d2, we will see the TSC calibrated value smaller or bigger than the expected value. As a result, in a cluster we were seeing a variation of approximately +/- 20MHz in the calibrated values, resulting in NTP failures. [ As far as the SMI source is concerned, this is a periodic SMI that gets disabled after ACPI is enabled by the OS. But the TSC calibration happens before the ACPI is enabled. ] To address this, change pit_expect_msb() so that - the 'tsc' is the TSC in between the two reads that read the MSB change from the PIT (same as before) - the 'delta' is the difference in TSC from *before* the MSB changed to *after* the MSB changed. Now the delta is twice as big as before (it covers four PIT accesses, roughly 4us) and quick_pit_calibrate() will loop a bit longer to get the calibrated value with in the 500ppm precision. As the delta (d1/d2) covers four PIT accesses, actual calibrated result might be closer to 250ppm precision. As the loop now takes longer to stabilize, double MAX_QUICK_PIT_MS to 50. SMI disturbance will showup as much larger delta's and the loop will take longer than usual for the result to be with in the accepted precision. Or will fallback to slow PIT calibration if it takes more than 50msec. Also while we are at this, remove the calibration correction that aims to get the result to the middle of the error bars. We really don't know which direction to correct into, so remove it.

The tsc code uses CLOCK_TICK_RATE which on x86 is defined to just be the same as PIT_TICK_RATE. This patch updates the code use the later as we want to depecrate and remove the global CLOCK_TICK_RATE symbol.

vread_tsc is short and hot, and it's userspace code so the usual reasons to enable -pg and turn off sibling calls don't apply. (OK, turning off sibling calls has no effect. But it might someday...)

vread_tsc checks whether rdtsc returns something less than cycle_last, which is an extremely predictable branch.

RDTSC is completely unordered on modern Intel and AMD CPUs. The Intel manual says that lfence;rdtsc causes all previous instructions to complete before the tsc is read, and the AMD manual says to use mfence;rdtsc to do the same thing. From a decent amount of testing [1] this is enough to make rdtsc be ordered with respect to subsequent loads across a wide variety of CPUs. On Sandy Bridge (i7-2600), this improves a loop of clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) by more than 5 ns/iter.

Variables that are shared between the vdso and the kernel are currently a bit of a mess. They are each defined with their own magic, they are accessed differently in the kernel, the vsyscall page, and the vdso, and one of them (vsyscall_clock) doesn't even really exist. This changes them all to use a common mechanism. All of them are delcared in vvar.h with a fixed address (validated by the linker script). In the kernel (as before), they look like ordinary read-write variables. In the vsyscall page and the vdso, they are accessed through a new macro VVAR, which gives read-only access. The vdso is now loaded verbatim into memory without any fixups. As a side bonus, access from the vdso is faster because a level of indirection is removed. While we're at it, pack jiffies and vgetcpu_mode into the same cacheline.

Konrad Wilk reported that the new delayed calibration crashes with a divide by zero on Xen. The reason is that Xen sets the pmtimer address, but reading from it returns 0xffffff. That results in the ref_start and ref_stop value being the same, so the delta is zero which causes the divide by zero later in the calculation. The conditional (!hpet && !ref_start && !ref_stop) which sanity checks the calibration reference values doesn't really make sense. If the refs are null, but hpet is on, we still want to break out. The div by zero would be possible to trigger by chance if both reads from the hardware provided the exact same value (due to hardware wrapping). So checking if both the ref values are the same should handle if we don't have hardware (both null) or if they are the same value (either by invalid hardware, or by chance), avoiding the div by zero issue.

commit a8760eca (x86: Check tsc available/disabled in the delayed init function) missed to prevent the setup of the delayed init function in case the initial tsc calibration failed. This results in the same divide by zero bug as we have seen without the tsc disabled check. Skip the delayed work setup when tsc_khz (the initial calibration value) is 0.

The delayed TSC init function does not check whether the system has no TSC or TSC is disabled at the kernel command line, which results in a crash in the work queue based extended calibration due to division by zero because the basic calibration never happened.

Boot to boot the TSC calibration may vary by quite a large amount. While normal variance of 50-100ppm can easily be seen, the quick calibration code only requires 500ppm accuracy, which is the limit of what NTP can correct for. This can cause problems for systems being used as NTP servers, as every time they reboot it can take hours for them to calculate the new drift error caused by the calibration. The classic trade-off here is calibration accuracy vs slow boot times, as during the calibration nothing else can run. This patch uses a delayed workqueue to calibrate the TSC over the period of a second. This allows very accurate calibration (in my tests only varying by 1khz or 0.4ppm boot to boot). Additionally this refined calibration step does not block the boot process, and only delays the TSC clocksoure registration by a few seconds in early boot. If the refined calibration strays 1% from the early boot calibration value, the system will fall back to already calculated early boot calibration. Credit to Andi Kleen who suggested using a timer quite awhile back, but I dismissed it thinking the timer calibration would be done after the clocksource was registered (which would break things). Forgive me for my short-sightedness. This patch has worked very well in my testing, but TSC hardware is quite varied so it would probably be good to get some extended testing, possibly pushing inclusion out to 2.6.39.
