Since the dawn of time the ICST code has only supported divide
by one or hang in an eternal loop. Luckily we were always dividing
by one because the reference frequency for the systems using
the ICSTs is 24MHz and the [min,max] values for the PLL input
if [10,320] MHz for ICST307 and [6,200] for ICST525, so the loop
will always terminate immediately without assigning any divisor
for the reference frequency.

But for the code to make sense, let's insert the missing i++

ARM: 8517/1: ICST: avoid arithmetic overflow in icst_hz() 2016-03-04T15:18:38+00:00 Linus Walleij linus.walleij@linaro.org 2016-02-08T08:14:37+00:00 3f8a01e591dad29e20d911844b66a0c3d169ebdc [ Upstream commit 5070fb14a0154f075c8b418e5bc58a620ae85a45 ] When trying to set the ICST 307 clock to 25174000 Hz I ran into this arithmetic error: the icst_hz_to_vco() correctly figure out DIVIDE=2, RDW=100 and VDW=99 yielding a frequency of 25174000 Hz out of the VCO. (I replicated the icst_hz() function in a spreadsheet to verify this.) However, when I called icst_hz() on these VCO settings it would instead return 4122709 Hz.

The error did not manifest in the old clock framework since this high frequency was only used by the CLCD, which calls clk_set_rate() without first calling clk_round_rate() and since the old clock framework would not call clk_round_rate() before setting the frequency, the correct values propagated into the VCO. After some experimenting I figured out that it was due to a simple arithmetic overflow: the divisor for 24Mhz reference frequency as reference becomes 24000000*2*(99+8)=0x132212400 and the "1" in bit 32 overflows and is lost.

[ Upstream commit 5070fb14a0154f075c8b418e5bc58a620ae85a45 ]

When trying to set the ICST 307 clock to 25174000 Hz I ran into
this arithmetic error: the icst_hz_to_vco() correctly figure out
DIVIDE=2, RDW=100 and VDW=99 yielding a frequency of
25174000 Hz out of the VCO. (I replicated the icst_hz() function
in a spreadsheet to verify this.)

However, when I called icst_hz() on these VCO settings it would
instead return 4122709 Hz. This causes an error in the common
clock driver for ICST as the common clock framework will call
.round_rate() on the clock which will utilize icst_hz_to_vco()
followed by icst_hz() suggesting the erroneous frequency, and
then the clock gets set to this.

The error did not manifest in the old clock framework since
this high frequency was only used by the CLCD, which calls
clk_set_rate() without first calling clk_round_rate() and since
the old clock framework would not call clk_round_rate() before
setting the frequency, the correct values propagated into
the VCO.

After some experimenting I figured out that it was due to a simple
arithmetic overflow: the divisor for 24Mhz reference frequency
as reference becomes 24000000*2*(99+8)=0x132212400 and the "1"
in bit 32 overflows and is lost.

But introducing an explicit 64-by-32 bit do_div() and casting
the divisor into (u64) we get the right frequency back, and the
right frequency gets set.

Pull timer and time updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co

   - Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
     Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
     user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)

   - Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.

   - Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.

   - Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
     and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs.  Some of it
     definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.

   - Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.

   - A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing.  This is a
     long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
     traces.  With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
     for correlation of traces accross separate machines.

   - Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.

   - A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.

   - Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.

   - New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe.  I'm really
     impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
     manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
     specific timers.

[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

   - Another round of code move from arch to drivers.  Looks like most
     of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
     a few obnoxious strongholds.

   - The usual updates and fixlets all over the place"
