GCC 5.5.0 sometimes cleverly hoists reads of the pvclock and/or hvclock pages before the vclock mode checks. This creates a path through vclock_gettime() in which no vclock is enabled at all (due to disabled TSC on old CPUs, for example) but the pvclock or hvclock page nevertheless read. This will segfault on bare metal. This fixes commit 459e3a21 ("gcc-9: properly declare the {pv,hv}clock_page storage") in the sense that, before that commit, GCC didn't seem to generate the offending code. There was nothing wrong with that commit per se, and -stable maintainers should backport this to all supported kernels regardless of whether the offending commit was present, since the same crash could just as easily be triggered by the phase of the moon. On GCC 9.1.1, this doesn't seem to affect the generated code at all, so I'm not too concerned about performance regressions from this fix.

The pvlock_page and hvclock_page variables are (as the name implies) addresses to pages, created by the linker script. But we declared them as just "extern u8" variables, which _works_, but now that gcc does some more bounds checking, it causes warnings like warning: array subscript 1 is outside array bounds of ‘u8[1]’ when we then access more than one byte from those variables. Fix this by simply making the declaration of the variables match reality, which makes the compiler happy too. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@-linux-foundation.org>

vgetcyc() is full of barriers, so fetching values out of the vvar page before vgetcyc() for use after vgetcyc() results in poor code generation. Put vgetcyc() first to avoid this problem. Also, pull the tv_sec division into the loop and put all the ts writes together. The old code wrote ts->tv_sec on each iteration before the syscall fallback check and then added in the offset afterwards, which forced the compiler to pointlessly copy base->sec to ts->tv_sec on each iteration. The new version seems to generate sensible code. Saves several cycles. With this patch applied, the result is faster than before the clock_gettime() rewrite.

When a vDSO clock function falls back to the syscall, no special barriers or ordering is needed, and the syscall fallbacks don't clobber any memory that is not explicitly listed in the asm constraints. Remove the "memory" clobber. This causes minor changes to the generated code, but otherwise has no obvious performance impact. I think it's nice to have, though, since it may help the optimizer in the future.

The code flow for the vclocks is convoluted as it requires the vclocks which can be invalidated separately from the vsyscall_gtod_data sequence to store the fact in a separate variable. That's inefficient. Restructure the code so the vclock readout returns cycles and the conversion to nanoseconds is handled at the call site. If the clock gets invalidated or vclock is already VCLOCK_NONE, return U64_MAX as the cycle value, which is invalid for all clocks and leave the sequence loop immediately in that case by calling the fallback function directly. This allows to remove the gettimeofday fallback as it now uses the clock_gettime() fallback and does the nanoseconds to microseconds conversion in the same way as it does when the vclock is functional. It does not make a difference whether the division by 1000 happens in the kernel fallback or in userspace. Generates way better code and gains a few cycles back.

Now that the time getter functions use the clockid as index into the storage array for the base time access, the switch case can be replaced. - Check for clockid >= MAX_CLOCKS and for negative clockid (CPU/FD) first and call the fallback function right away. - After establishing that clockid is < MAX_CLOCKS, convert the clockid to a bitmask - Check for the supported high resolution and coarse functions by anding the bitmask of supported clocks and check whether a bit is set. This completely avoids jump tables, reduces the number of conditionals and makes the VDSO extensible for other clock ids.

It's desired to support more clocks in the VDSO, e.g. CLOCK_TAI. This results either in indirect calls due to the larger switch case, which then requires retpolines or when the compiler is forced to avoid jump tables it results in even more conditionals. To avoid both variants which are bad for performance the high resolution functions and the coarse grained functions will be collapsed into one for each. That requires to store the clock specific base time in an array. Introcude struct vgtod_ts for storage and convert the data store, the update function and the individual clock functions over to use it. The new storage does not longer use gtod_long_t for seconds depending on 32 or 64 bit compile because this needs to be the full 64bit value even for 32bit when a Y2038 function is added. No point in keeping the distinction alive in the internal representation.

The syscall fallbacks in the vDSO have incorrect asm constraints. They are not marked as writing to their outputs -- instead, they are marked as clobbering "memory", which is useless. In particular, gcc is smart enough to know that the timespec parameter hasn't escaped, so a memory clobber doesn't clobber it. And passing a pointer as an asm *input* does not tell gcc that the pointed-to value is changed. Add in the fact that the asm instructions weren't volatile, and gcc was free to omit them entirely unless their sole output (the return value) is used. Which it is (phew!), but that stops happening with some upcoming patches. As a trivial example, the following code: void test_fallback(struct timespec *ts) { vdso_fallback_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ts); } compiles to: 00000000000000c0 <test_fallback>: c0: c3 retq To add insult to injury, the RCX and R11 clobbers on 64-bit builds were missing. The "memory" clobber is also unnecessary -- no ordering with respect to other memory operations is needed, but that's going to be fixed in a separate not-for-stable patch.

On 32-bit architecture with 64-bit time_t, time() should always be implement by the C library by calling a (to be added) clock_gettime() variant that takes a sufficiently wide argument.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: NMark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul E.

Introduce a function that reads the exact nanoseconds value that is provided to the guest in kvmclock. This crystallizes the notion of kvmclock as a thin veneer over a stable TSC, that the guest will (hopefully) convert with NTP. In other words, kvmclock is *not* a paravirtualized host-to-guest NTP. Drop the get_kernel_ns() function, that was used both to get the base value of the master clock and to get the current value of kvmclock. The former use is replaced by ktime_get_boot_ns(), the latter is the purpose of get_kernel_ns(). This also allows KVM to provide a Hyper-V time reference counter that is synchronized with the time that is computed from the TSC page.

Allowing user code to map the HPET is problematic. HPET implementations are notoriously buggy, and there are probably many machines on which even MMIO reads from bogus HPET addresses are problematic. We have a report that the Dell Precision M2800 with: ACPI: HPET 0x00000000C8FE6238 000038 (v01 DELL CBX3 01072009 AMI. 00000005) is either so slow when accessing the HPET or actually hangs in some regard, causing soft lockups to be reported if users do unexpected things to the HPET. The vclock HPET code has also always been a questionable speedup. Accessing an HPET is exceedingly slow (on the order of several microseconds), so the added overhead in requiring a syscall to read the HPET is a small fraction of the total code of accessing it.

The pvclock vdso code was too abstracted to understand easily and excessively paranoid. Simplify it for a huge speedup. This opens the door for additional simplifications, as the vdso no longer accesses the pvti for any vcpu other than vcpu 0. Before, vclock_gettime using kvm-clock took about 45ns on my machine. With this change, it takes 29ns, which is almost as fast as the pure TSC implementation.

This reverts commits 0a4e6be9 and 80f7fdb1. The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare that it's mostly theoretical. As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task migration notifier. Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

If we were migrated right after __getcpu, but before reading the migration_count, we wouldn't notice that we read TSC of a different VCPU, nor that KVM's bug made pvti invalid, as only migration_count on source VCPU is increased.

DISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING turns off branch profiling (i.e. a redefinition of 'if'). Branch profiling depends on a bunch of kernel-internal symbols and generates extra output sections, none of which are useful or functional in the vDSO. It's currently turned off for vclock_gettime.c, but vgetcpu.c also triggers branch profiling, so just turn it off in the makefile. This fixes the build on some configurations: the vdso could contain undefined symbols, and the fake section table overflowed due to ftrace's added sections.

Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF parsers in the kernel. Replace all of that with plain C code that runs at build time. All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and linked in to the kernel image. This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO images are stripped more heavily than they used to be. Everything outside the loadable segment is dropped. In particular, this causes the section table and section name strings to be missing. This should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these tables anyway. The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's --strip-sections option. The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment. Currently, it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or hpet page. This happens whenever the load segment is just under a multiple of PAGE_SIZE. The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'. This most likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall. That caused ld to relocate the reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic relocation. Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it work. vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't silently generate bad vdso images. (Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt to relocate the vdso.)
