      sched/clock: Fix up clear_sched_clock_stable() · 6577e42a
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      The below tells us the static_key conversion has a problem; since the
exact point of clearing that flag isn't too important, delay the flip
and use a workqueue to process it.

      sched_clock: Prevent 64bit inatomicity on 32bit systems · a1cbcaa9
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      The sched_clock_remote() implementation has the following inatomicity
problem on 32bit systems when accessing the remote scd->clock, which
is a 64bit value.

CPU0			CPU1

sched_clock_local()	sched_clock_remote(CPU0)
...
			remote_clock = scd[CPU0]->clock
			    read_low32bit(scd[CPU0]->clock)
cmpxchg64(scd->clock,...)
			    read_high32bit(scd[CPU0]->clock)

While the update of scd->clock is using an atomic64 mechanism, the
readout on the remote cpu is not, which can cause completely bogus
readouts.

It is a quite rare problem, because it requires the update to hit the
narrow race window between the low/high readout and the update must go
across the 32bit boundary.

The resulting misbehaviour is, that CPU1 will see the sched_clock on
CPU1 ~4 seconds ahead of it's own and update CPU1s sched_clock value
to this bogus timestamp. This stays that way due to the clamping
implementation for about 4 seconds until the synchronization with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC undoes the problem.

The issue is hard to observe, because it might only result in a less
accurate SCHED_OTHER timeslicing behaviour. To create observable
damage on realtime scheduling classes, it is necessary that the bogus
update of CPU1 sched_clock happens in the context of an realtime
thread, which then gets charged 4 seconds of RT runtime, which results
in the RT throttler mechanism to trigger and prevent scheduling of RT
tasks for a little less than 4 seconds. So this is quite unlikely as
well.

The issue was quite hard to decode as the reproduction time is between
2 days and 3 weeks and intrusive tracing makes it less likely, but the
following trace recorded with trace_clock=global, which uses
sched_clock_local(), gave the final hint:

  <idle>-0   0d..30 400269.477150: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xf7061e80
  <idle>-0   0d..30 400269.477151: hrtimer_start:  hrtimer=0xf7061e80 ...
irq/20-S-587 1d..32 400273.772118: sched_wakeup:   comm= ... target_cpu=0
  <idle>-0   0dN.30 400273.772118: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xf7061e80

What happens is that CPU0 goes idle and invokes
sched_clock_idle_sleep_event() which invokes sched_clock_local() and
CPU1 runs a remote wakeup for CPU0 at the same time, which invokes
sched_remote_clock(). The time jump gets propagated to CPU0 via
sched_remote_clock() and stays stale on both cores for ~4 seconds.

There are only two other possibilities, which could cause a stale
sched clock:

1) ktime_get() which reads out CLOCK_MONOTONIC returns a sporadic
   wrong value.

2) sched_clock() which reads the TSC returns a sporadic wrong value.

#1 can be excluded because sched_clock would continue to increase for
   one jiffy and then go stale.

#2 can be excluded because it would not make the clock jump
   forward. It would just result in a stale sched_clock for one jiffy.

After quite some brain twisting and finding the same pattern on other
traces, sched_clock_remote() remained the only place which could cause
such a problem and as explained above it's indeed racy on 32bit
systems.

So while on 64bit systems the readout is atomic, we need to verify the
remote readout on 32bit machines. We need to protect the local->clock
readout in sched_clock_remote() on 32bit as well because an NMI could
hit between the low and the high readout, call sched_clock_local() and
modify local->clock.

Thanks to Siegfried Wulsch for bearing with my debug requests and
going through the tedious tasks of running a bunch of reproducer
systems to generate the debug information which let me decode the
issue.

      sched: Fix cpu_clock() in NMIs, on !CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK · b9f8fcd5
      由 David Miller 提交于 
      Relax stable-sched-clock architectures to not save/disable/restore
hardirqs in cpu_clock().

The background is that I was trying to resolve a sparc64 perf
issue when I discovered this problem.

On sparc64 I implement pseudo NMIs by simply running the kernel
at IRQ level 14 when local_irq_disable() is called, this allows
performance counter events to still come in at IRQ level 15.

This doesn't work if any code in an NMI handler does
local_irq_save() or local_irq_disable() since the "disable" will
kick us back to cpu IRQ level 14 thus letting NMIs back in and
we recurse.

The only path which that does that in the perf event IRQ
handling path is the code supporting frequency based events.  It
uses cpu_clock().

cpu_clock() simply invokes sched_clock() with IRQs disabled.

And that's a fundamental bug all on it's own, particularly for
the HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK case.  NMIs can thus get into the
sched_clock() code interrupting the local IRQ disable code
sections of it.

Furthermore, for the not-HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK case, the IRQ
disabling done by cpu_clock() is just pure overhead and
completely unnecessary.

So the core problem is that sched_clock() is not NMI safe, but
we are invoking it from NMI contexts in the perf events code
(via cpu_clock()).

A less important issue is the overhead of IRQ disabling when it
isn't necessary in cpu_clock().

CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK architectures are not
affected by this patch.

      Arjan complained about the suckyness of TSC on modern machines, and
asked if we could do something about that for PERF_SAMPLE_TIME.

Make cpu_clock() NMI safe by removing the spinlock and using
cmpxchg. This also makes it smaller and more robust.

      sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards, take #2 · 1c5745aa
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Redo:

  5b7dba4f: sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards

which had to be reverted due to s2ram hangs:

  ca7e716c: Revert "sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards"

... this time with resume restoring GTOD later in the sequence
taken into account as well.

The "timekeeping_suspended" flag is not very nice but we cannot call into
GTOD before it has been properly resumed and the scheduler will run very
early in the resume sequence.

      sched_clock: fix cpu_clock() · 354879bb
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      This patch fixes 3 issues:

a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
   by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
   relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
   as it can drift around.

   So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.

b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):

   delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
   clock += delta;

   Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.

c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.

the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

      sched_clock: and multiplier for TSC to gtod drift · c300ba25
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The sched_clock code currently tries to keep all CPU clocks of all CPUS
somewhat in sync. At every clock tick it records the gtod clock and
uses that and jiffies and the TSC to calculate a CPU clock that tries to
stay in sync with all the other CPUs.

ftrace depends heavily on this timer and it detects when this timer
"jumps".  One problem is that the TSC and the gtod also drift.
When the TSC is 0.1% faster or slower than the gtod it is very noticeable
in ftrace. To help compensate for this, I've added a multiplier that
tries to keep the CPU clock updating at the same rate as the gtod.

I've tried various ways to get it to be in sync and this ended up being
the most reliable. At every scheduler tick we calculate the new multiplier:

  multi = delta_gtod / delta_TSC

This means we perform a 64 bit divide at the tick (once a HZ). A shift
is used to handle the accuracy.

Other methods that failed due to dynamic HZ are:

(not used)  multi += (gtod - tsc) / delta_gtod
(not used)  multi += (gtod - (last_tsc + delta_tsc)) / delta_gtod

as well as other variants.

This code still allows for a slight drift between TSC and gtod, but
it keeps the damage down to a minimum.

      sched_clock: record TSC after gtod · a83bc47c
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      To read the gtod we need to grab the xtime lock for read. Reading the gtod
before the TSC can cause a bigger gab if the xtime lock is contended.

This patch simply reverses the order to read the TSC after the gtod.
The locking in the reading of the gtod handles any barriers one might
think is needed.

      Reading the CPU clock should try to stay accurate within the CPU.
By reading the CPU clock from another CPU and updating the deltas can
cause unneeded jumps when reading from the local CPU.

from the local CPU.

      sched_clock: fix calculation of other CPU · 2b8a0cf4
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The algorithm to calculate the 'now' of another CPU is not correct.
At each scheduler tick, each CPU records the last sched_clock and
gtod (tick_raw and tick_gtod respectively). If the TSC is somewhat the
same in speed between two clocks the algorithm would be:

  tick_gtod1 + (now1 - tick_raw1) = tick_gtod2 + (now2 - tick_raw2)

To calculate now2 we would have:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw2 - tick_raw1) + now1

Currently the algorithm is:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw1 - tick_raw2) + now1

This solves most of the rest of the issues I've had with timestamps in
ftace.

      sched_clock: stop maximum check on NO HZ · af52a90a
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      Working with ftrace I would get large jumps of 11 millisecs or more with
the clock tracer. This killed the latencing timings of ftrace and also
caused the irqoff self tests to fail.

What was happening is with NO_HZ the idle would stop the jiffy counter and
before the jiffy counter was updated the sched_clock would have a bad
delta jiffies to compare with the gtod with the maximum.

The jiffies would stop and the last sched_tick would record the last gtod.
On wakeup, the sched clock update would compare the gtod + delta jiffies
(which would be zero) and compare it to the TSC. The TSC would have
correctly (with a stable TSC) moved forward several jiffies. But because the
jiffies has not been updated yet the clock would be prevented from moving
forward because it would appear that the TSC jumped too far ahead.

The clock would then virtually stop, until the jiffies are updated. Then
the next sched clock update would see that the clock was very much behind
since the delta jiffies is now correct. This would then jump the clock
forward by several jiffies.

This caused ftrace to report several milliseconds of interrupts off
latency at every resume from NO_HZ idle.

This patch adds hooks into the nohz code to disable the checking of the
maximum clock update when nohz is in effect. It resumes the max check
when nohz has updated the jiffies again.

      sched_clock: widen the max and min time · f7cce27f
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      With keeping the max and min sched time within one jiffy of the gtod clock
was too tight. Just before a schedule tick the max could easily be hit, as
well as just after a schedule_tick the min could be hit. This caused the
clock to jump around by a jiffy.

This patch widens the minimum to
   last gtod + (delta_jiffies ? delta_jiffies - 1 : 0) * TICK_NSECS

and the maximum to
    last gtod + (2 + delta_jiffies) * TICK_NSECS

This keeps the minum to gtod or if one jiffy less than delta jiffies
and the maxim 2 jiffies ahead of gtod. This may cause unstable TSCs to be
a bit more sporadic, but it helps keep a clock with a stable TSC working well.

      sched_clock: record from last tick · 62c43dd9
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The sched_clock code tries to keep within the gtod time by one tick (jiffy).
The current code mistakenly keeps track of the delta jiffies between
updates of the clock, where the the delta is used to compare with the
number of jiffies that have past since an update of the gtod. The gtod is
updated at each schedule tick not each sched_clock update. After one
jiffy passes the clock is updated fine. But the delta is taken from the
last update so if the next update happens before the next tick the delta
jiffies used will be incorrect.

This patch changes the code to check the delta of jiffies between ticks
and not updates to match the comparison of the updates with the gtod.

      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      this replaces the rq->clock stuff (and possibly cpu_clock()).

 - architectures that have an 'imperfect' hardware clock can set
   CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK

 - the 'jiffie' window might be superfulous when we update tick_gtod
   before the __update_sched_clock() call in sched_clock_tick()

 - cpu_clock() might be implemented as:

     sched_clock_cpu(smp_processor_id())

   if the accuracy proves good enough - how far can TSC drift in a
   single jiffie when considering the filtering and idle hooks?
