The code to check the adjtimex() or clock_adjtime() arguments is spread out across multiple files for presumably only historic reasons. As a preparatation for a rework to get rid of the use of 'struct timeval' and 'struct timespec' in there, this moves all the portions into kernel/time/timekeeping.c and marks them as 'static'. The warp_clock() function here is not as closely related as the others, but I feel it still makes sense to move it here in order to consolidate all callers of timekeeping_inject_offset().

In comqit fc6eead7 ("time: Clean up CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW time handling"), the following code got mistakenly added to the update of the raw timekeeper: /* Update the monotonic raw base */ seconds = tk->raw_sec; nsec = (u32)(tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec >> tk->tkr_raw.shift); tk->tkr_raw.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec); Which adds the raw_sec value and the shifted down raw xtime_nsec to the base value. But the read function adds the shifted down tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec value another time, The result of this is that ktime_get_raw() users (which are all internal users) see the raw time move faster then it should (the rate at which can vary with the current size of tkr_raw.xtime_nsec), which has resulted in at least problems with graphics rendering performance. The change tried to match the monotonic base update logic: seconds = (u64)(tk->xtime_sec + tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec); nsec = (u32) tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec; tk->tkr_mono.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec); Which adds the wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec value, but not the tk->tkr_mono.xtime_nsec value to the base. To fix this, simplify the tkr_raw.base accumulation to only accumulate the raw_sec portion, and do not include the tkr_raw.xtime_nsec portion, which will be added at read time.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING is enabled the timekeeping_check_update() function will update status like last_warning and underflow_seen on the timekeeper. If there are issues found this state is used to rate limit the warnings that get printed. This rate limiting doesn't really really work if stored in real_tk as the shadow timekeeper is overwritten onto real_tk at the end of every update_wall_time() call, resetting last_warning and other statuses. Fix rate limiting by using the shadow_timekeeper for timekeeping_check_update().

CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD was introduced five years ago to allow a transition from the old vsyscall implementations to the new method (which simplified internal accounting and made timekeeping more precise). However, PPC and IA64 have yet to make the transition, despite in some cases me sending test patches to try to help it along. http://patches.linaro.org/patch/30501/ http://patches.linaro.org/patch/35412/ If its helpful, my last pass at the patches can be found here: https://git.linaro.org/people/john.stultz/linux.git dev/oldvsyscall-cleanup So I think its time to set a deadline and make it clear this is going away. So this patch adds warnings about this functionality being dropped. Likely to be in v4.15.

Due to how the MONOTONIC_RAW accumulation logic was handled, there is the potential for a 1ns discontinuity when we do accumulations. This small discontinuity has for the most part gone un-noticed, but since ARM64 enabled CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW in their vDSO clock_gettime implementation, we've seen failures with the inconsistency-check test in kselftest. This patch addresses the issue by using the same sub-ns accumulation handling that CLOCK_MONOTONIC uses, which avoids the issue for in-kernel users. Since the ARM64 vDSO implementation has its own clock_gettime calculation logic, this patch reduces the frequency of errors, but failures are still seen. The ARM64 vDSO will need to be updated to include the sub-nanosecond xtime_nsec values in its calculation for this issue to be completely fixed.

In tests, which excercise switching of clocksources, a NULL pointer dereference can be observed on AMR64 platforms in the clocksource read() function: u64 clocksource_mmio_readl_down(struct clocksource *c) { return ~(u64)readl_relaxed(to_mmio_clksrc(c)->reg) & c->mask; } This is called from the core timekeeping code via: cycle_now = tkr->read(tkr->clock); tkr->read is the cached tkr->clock->read() function pointer. When the clocksource is changed then tkr->clock and tkr->read are updated sequentially. The code above results in a sequential load operation of tkr->read and tkr->clock as well. If the store to tkr->clock hits between the loads of tkr->read and tkr->clock, then the old read() function is called with the new clock pointer. As a consequence the read() function dereferences a different data structure and the resulting 'reg' pointer can point anywhere including NULL. This problem was introduced when the timekeeping code was switched over to use struct tk_read_base. Before that, it was theoretically possible as well when the compiler decided to reload clock in the code sequence: now = tk->clock->read(tk->clock); Add a helper function which avoids the issue by reading tk_read_base->clock once into a local variable clk and then issue the read function via clk->read(clk). This guarantees that the read() function always gets the proper clocksource pointer handed in. Since there is now no use for the tkr.read pointer, this patch also removes it, and to address stopping the fast timekeeper during suspend/resume, it introduces a dummy clocksource to use rather then just a dummy read function.

ktime is a union because the initial implementation stored the time in scalar nanoseconds on 64 bit machine and in a endianess optimized timespec variant for 32bit machines. The Y2038 cleanup removed the timespec variant and switched everything to scalar nanoseconds. The union remained, but become completely pointless. Get rid of the union and just keep ktime_t as simple typedef of type s64. The conversion was done with coccinelle and some manual mopping up.

The clocksource delta to nanoseconds conversion is using signed math, but the delta is unsigned. This makes the conversion space smaller than necessary and in case of a multiplication overflow the conversion can become negative. The conversion is done with scaled math: s64 nsec_delta = ((s64)clkdelta * clk->mult) >> clk->shift; Shifting a signed integer right obvioulsy preserves the sign, which has interesting consequences: - Time jumps backwards - __iter_div_u64_rem() which is used in one of the calling code pathes will take forever to piecewise calculate the seconds/nanoseconds part. This has been reported by several people with different scenarios: David observed that when stopping a VM with a debugger: "It was essentially the stopped by debugger case. I forget exactly why, but the guest was being explicitly stopped from outside, it wasn't just scheduling lag. I think it was something in the vicinity of 10 minutes stopped." When lifting the stop the machine went dead. The stopped by debugger case is not really interesting, but nevertheless it would be a good thing not to die completely. But this was also observed on a live system by Liav: "When the OS is too overloaded, delta will get a high enough value for the msb of the sum delta * tkr->mult + tkr->xtime_nsec to be set, and so after the shift the nsec variable will gain a value similar to 0xffffffffff000000." Unfortunately this has been reintroduced recently with commit 6bd58f09 ("time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation"). It had been fixed a year ago already in commit 35a4933a ("time: Avoid signed overflow in timekeeping_get_ns()"). Though it's not surprising that the issue has been reintroduced because the function itself and the whole call chain uses s64 for the result and the propagation of it. The change in this recent commit is subtle: s64 nsec; - nsec = (d * m + n) >> s: + nsec = d * m + n; + nsec >>= s; d being type of cycle_t adds another level of obfuscation. This wouldn't have happened if the previous change to unsigned computation would have made the 'nsec' variable u64 right away and a follow up patch had cleaned up the whole call chain. There have been patches submitted which basically did a revert of the above patch leaving everything else unchanged as signed. Back to square one. This spawned a admittedly pointless discussion about potential users which rely on the unsigned behaviour until someone pointed out that it had been fixed before. The changelogs of said patches added further confusion as they made finally false claims about the consequences for eventual users which expect signed results. Despite delta being cycle_t, aka. u64, it's very well possible to hand in a signed negative value and the signed computation will happily return the correct result. But nobody actually sat down and analyzed the code which was added as user after the propably unintended signed conversion. Though in sensitive code like this it's better to analyze it proper and make sure that nothing relies on this than hunting the subtle wreckage half a year later. After analyzing all call chains it stands that no caller can hand in a negative value (which actually would work due to the s64 cast) and rely on the signed math to do the right thing. Change the conversion function to unsigned math. The conversion of all call chains is done in a follow up patch. This solves the starvation issue, which was caused by the negative result, but it does not solve the underlying problem. It merily procrastinates it. When the timekeeper update is deferred long enough that the unsigned multiplication overflows, then time going backwards is observable again. It does neither solve the issue of clocksources with a small counter width which will wrap around possibly several times and cause random time stamps to be generated. But those are usually not found on systems used for virtualization, so this is likely a non issue. I took the liberty to claim authorship for this simply because analyzing all callsites and writing the changelog took substantially more time than just making the simple s/s64/u64/ change and ignore the rest.

This boot clock can be used as a tracing clock and will account for suspend time. To keep it NMI safe since we're accessing from tracing, we're not using a separate timekeeper with updates to monotonic clock and boot offset protected with seqlocks. This has the following minor side effects: (1) Its possible that a timestamp be taken after the boot offset is updated but before the timekeeper is updated. If this happens, the new boot offset is added to the old timekeeping making the clock appear to update slightly earlier: CPU 0 CPU 1 timekeeping_inject_sleeptime64() __timekeeping_inject_sleeptime(tk, delta); timestamp(); timekeeping_update(tk, TK_CLEAR_NTP...); (2) On 32-bit systems, the 64-bit boot offset (tk->offs_boot) may be partially updated. Since the tk->offs_boot update is a rare event, this should be a rare occurrence which postprocessing should be able to handle.

This results in bogus perf timestamps like: swapper 0 [000] 253.427536: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.426573: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.426687: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.426800: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.426905: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.427022: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.427127: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.427239: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.427346: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 254.427463: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 255.426572: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) Instead of more reasonable expected timestamps like: swapper 0 [000] 39.953768: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.064839: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.175956: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.287103: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.398217: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.509324: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.620437: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.731546: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.842654: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 40.953772: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) swapper 0 [000] 41.064881: 111111111 cpu-clock: ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) Add the proper use of timekeeping_delta_to_ns() to convert the cycle delta to nanoseconds as needed.

When I added some extra sanity checking in timekeeping_get_ns() under CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING, I missed that the NMI safe __ktime_get_fast_ns() method was using timekeeping_get_ns(). Thus the locking added to the debug checks broke the NMI-safety of __ktime_get_fast_ns(). This patch open-codes the timekeeping_get_ns() logic for __ktime_get_fast_ns(), so can avoid any deadlocks in NMI.

Another representative use case of time sync and the correlated clocksource (in addition to PTP noted above) is PTP synchronized audio. In a streaming application, as an example, samples will be sent and/or received by multiple devices with a presentation time that is in terms of the PTP master clock. Synchronizing the audio output on these devices requires correlating the audio clock with the PTP master clock. The more precise this correlation is, the better the audio quality (i.e. out of sync audio sounds bad). From an application standpoint, to correlate the PTP master clock with the audio device clock, the system clock is used as a intermediate timebase. The transforms such an application would perform are: System Clock <-> Audio clock System Clock <-> Network Device Clock [<-> PTP Master Clock] Modern Intel platforms can perform a more accurate cross timestamp in hardware (ART,audio device clock). The audio driver requires ART->system time transforms -- the same as required for the network driver. These platforms offload audio processing (including cross-timestamps) to a DSP which to ensure uninterrupted audio processing, communicates and response to the host only once every millsecond. As a result is takes up to a millisecond for the DSP to receive a request, the request is processed by the DSP, the audio output hardware is polled for completion, the result is copied into shared memory, and the host is notified. All of these operation occur on a millisecond cadence. This transaction requires about 2 ms, but under heavier workloads it may take up to 4 ms. Adding a history allows these slow devices the option of providing an ART value outside of the current interval. In this case, the callback provided is an accessor function for the previously obtained counter value. If get_system_device_crosststamp() receives a counter value previous to cycle_last, it consults the history provided as an argument in history_ref and interpolates the realtime and monotonic raw system time using the provided counter value. If there are any clock discontinuities, e.g. from calling settimeofday(), the monotonic raw time is interpolated in the usual way, but the realtime clock time is adjusted by scaling the monotonic raw adjustment. When an accessor function is used a history argument *must* be provided. The history is initialized using ktime_get_snapshot() and must be called before the counter values are read.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT: cross timestamp code was developed by Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>. It has changed considerably and any mistakes are mine. The precision with which events on multiple networked systems can be synchronized using, as an example, PTP (IEEE 1588, 802.1AS) is limited by the precision of the cross timestamps between the system clock and the device (timestamp) clock. Precision here is the degree of simultaneity when capturing the cross timestamp. Currently the PTP cross timestamp is captured in software using the PTP device driver ioctl PTP_SYS_OFFSET. Reads of the device clock are interleaved with reads of the realtime clock. At best, the precision of this cross timestamp is on the order of several microseconds due to software latencies. Sub-microsecond precision is required for industrial control and some media applications. To achieve this level of precision hardware supported cross timestamping is needed. The function get_device_system_crosstimestamp() allows device drivers to return a cross timestamp with system time properly scaled to nanoseconds. The realtime value is needed to discipline that clock using PTP and the monotonic raw value is used for applications that don't require a "real" time, but need an unadjusted clock time. The get_device_system_crosstimestamp() code calls back into the driver to ensure that the system counter is within the current timekeeping update interval. Modern Intel hardware provides an Always Running Timer (ART) which is exactly related to TSC through a known frequency ratio. The ART is routed to devices on the system and is used to precisely and simultaneously capture the device clock with the ART.

The code in ktime_get_snapshot() is a superset of the code in ktime_get_raw_and_real() code. Further, ktime_get_raw_and_real() is called only by the PPS code, pps_get_ts(). Consolidate the pps_get_ts() code into a single function calling ktime_get_snapshot() and eliminate ktime_get_raw_and_real(). A side effect of this is that the raw and real results of pps_get_ts() correspond to exactly the same clock cycle. Previously these values represented separate reads of the system clock.

The timekeeping code does not currently provide a way to translate externally provided clocksource cycles to system time. The cycle count is always provided by the result clocksource read() method internal to the timekeeping code. The added function timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() calculated a nanosecond value from a cycle count that can be added to tk_read_base.base value yielding the current system time. This allows clocksource cycle values external to the timekeeping code to provide a cycle count that can be transformed to system time.

Thus its been occasionally noted that users have seen confusing warnings like: Adjusting tsc more than 11% (5941981 vs 7759439) We try to limit the maximum total adjustment to 11% (10% tick adjustment + 0.5% frequency adjustment). But this is done by bounding the requested adjustment values, and the internal steering that is done by tracking the error from what was requested and what was applied, does not have any such limits. This is usually not problematic, but in some cases has a risk that an adjustment could cause the clocksource mult value to overflow, so its an indication things are outside of what is expected. It ends up most of the reports of this 11% warning are on systems using chrony, which utilizes the adjtimex() ADJ_TICK interface (which allows a +-10% adjustment). The original rational for ADJ_TICK unclear to me but my assumption it was originally added to allow broken systems to get a big constant correction at boot (see adjtimex userspace package for an example) which would allow the system to work w/ ntpd's 0.5% adjustment limit. Chrony uses ADJ_TICK to make very aggressive short term corrections (usually right at startup). Which push us close enough to the max bound that a few late ticks can cause the internal steering to push past the max adjust value (tripping the warning). Thus this patch adds some extra logic to enforce the max adjustment cap in the internal steering. Note: This has the potential to slow corrections when the ADJ_TICK value is furthest away from the default value. So it would be good to get some testing from folks using chrony, to make sure we don't cause any troubles there.

1e75fa8b "time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec" replaced a call to clocksource_cyc2ns() from timekeeping_get_ns() with an open-coded version of the same logic to avoid keeping a semi-redundant struct timespec in struct timekeeper. However, the commit also introduced a subtle semantic change - where clocksource_cyc2ns() uses purely unsigned math, the new version introduces a signed temporary, meaning that if (delta * tk->mult) has a 63-bit overflow the following shift will still give a negative result. The choice of 'maxsec' in __clocksource_updatefreq_scale() means this will generally happen if there's a ~10 minute pause in examining the clocksource. This can be triggered on a powerpc KVM guest by stopping it from qemu for a bit over 10 minutes. After resuming time has jumped backwards several minutes causing numerous problems (jiffies does not advance, msleep()s can be extended by minutes..). It doesn't happen on x86 KVM guests, because the guest TSC is effectively frozen while the guest is stopped, which is not the case for the powerpc timebase. Obviously an unsigned (64 bit) overflow will only take twice as long as a signed, 63-bit overflow. I don't know the time code well enough to know if that will still cause incorrect calculations, or if a 64-bit overflow is avoided elsewhere. Still, an incorrect forwards clock adjustment will cause less trouble than time going backwards. So, this patch removes the potential for intermediate signed overflow.

There is exactly one caller of getnstime_raw_and_real in the kernel, which is the pps_get_ts function. This changes the caller and the implementation to work on timespec64 types rather than timespec, to avoid the time_t overflow on 32-bit architectures. For consistency with the other new functions (ktime_get_seconds, ktime_get_real_*, ...), I'm renaming the function to ktime_get_raw_and_real_ts64. We still need to convert from the internal 64-bit type to 32 bit types in the caller, but this conversion is now pushed out from getnstime_raw_and_real to pps_get_ts. A follow-up patch changes the remaining pps code to completely avoid the conversion. Acked-by: NRichard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Acked-by: NDavid S.

There is only one user of the hardpps function in the kernel, so it makes sense to atomically change it over to using 64-bit timestamps for y2038 safety. In the hardpps implementation, we also need to change the pps_normtime structure, which is similar to struct timespec and also requires a 64-bit seconds portion. This introduces two temporary variables in pps_kc_event() to do the conversion, they will be removed again in the next step, which seemed preferable to having a larger patch changing it all at the same time.

Unfortunately, the logic in timekeeping_freqadjust(), introduced in commit: dc491596 ("timekeeping: Rework frequency adjustments to work better w/ nohz") used the abs() function with a s64 error value to calculate the size of the approximated adjustment to be made. Per include/linux/kernel.h: "abs() should not be used for 64-bit types (s64, u64, long long) - use abs64()". Thus on 32-bit platforms, this resulted in the clocksteering to take a quite dampended random walk trying to converge on the proper frequency, which caused the adjustments to be made much slower then intended (most easily observed when large adjustments are made). This patch fixes the issue by using abs64() instead.
