2026-04-18alarmtimer: Fix argument order in alarm_timer_forward()Zhan Xusheng1-1/+1
commit 5d16467ae56343b9205caedf85e3a131e0914ad8 upstream. alarm_timer_forward() passes arguments to alarm_forward() in the wrong order: alarm_forward(alarm, timr->it_interval, now); However, alarm_forward() is defined as: u64 alarm_forward(struct alarm *alarm, ktime_t now, ktime_t interval); and uses the second argument as the current time: delta = ktime_sub(now, alarm->node.expires); Passing the interval as "now" results in incorrect delta computation, which can lead to missed expirations or incorrect overrun accounting. This issue has been present since the introduction of alarm_timer_forward(). Fix this by swapping the arguments.

2026-02-06ptp: Add PHC file mode checks. Allow RO adjtime() without FMODE_WRITE.Wojtek Wasko1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit b4e53b15c04e3852949003752f48f7a14ae39e86 ] Many devices implement highly accurate clocks, which the kernel manages as PTP Hardware Clocks (PHCs). Userspace applications rely on these clocks to timestamp events, trace workload execution, correlate timescales across devices, and keep various clocks in sync. The kernel’s current implementation of PTP clocks does not enforce file permissions checks for most device operations except for POSIX clock operations, where file mode is verified in the POSIX layer before forwarding the call to the PTP subsystem. Consequently, it is common practice to not give unprivileged userspace applications any access to PTP clocks whatsoever by giving the PTP chardevs 600 permissions. An example of users running into this limitation is documented in [1]. Additionally, POSIX layer requires WRITE permission even for readonly adjtime() calls which are used in PTP layer to return current frequency offset applied to the PHC. Add permission checks for functions that modify the state of a PTP device. Continue enforcing permission checks for POSIX clock operations (settime, adjtime) in the POSIX layer. Only require WRITE access for dynamic clocks adjtime() if any flags are set in the modes field. [1] https://lists.nwtime.org/sympa/arc/linuxptp-users/2024-01/msg00036.html Changes in v4: - Require FMODE_WRITE in ajtime() only for calls modifying the clock in any way.

2025-06-27clocksource: Fix the CPUs' choice in the watchdog per CPU verificationGuilherme G. Piccoli1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit 08d7becc1a6b8c936e25d827becabfe3bff72a36 ] Right now, if the clocksource watchdog detects a clocksource skew, it might perform a per CPU check, for example in the TSC case on x86. In other words: supposing TSC is detected as unstable by the clocksource watchdog running at CPU1, as part of marking TSC unstable the kernel will also run a check of TSC readings on some CPUs to be sure it is synced between them all. But that check happens only on some CPUs, not all of them; this choice is based on the parameter "verify_n_cpus" and in some random cpumask calculation. So, the watchdog runs such per CPU checks on up to "verify_n_cpus" random CPUs among all online CPUs, with the risk of repeating CPUs (that aren't double checked) in the cpumask random calculation. But if "verify_n_cpus" > num_online_cpus(), it should skip the random calculation and just go ahead and check the clocksource sync between all online CPUs, without the risk of skipping some CPUs due to duplicity in the random cpumask calculation. Tests in a 4 CPU laptop with TSC skew detected led to some cases of the per CPU verification skipping some CPU even with verify_n_cpus=8, due to the duplicity on random cpumask generation. Skipping the randomization when the number of online CPUs is smaller than verify_n_cpus, solves that. Suggested-by: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo <cascardo@igalia.com> Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

posix_cpu_timer_del() commit f90fff1e152dedf52b932240ebbd670d83330eca upstream. If an exiting non-autoreaping task has already passed exit_notify() and calls handle_posix_cpu_timers() from IRQ, it can be reaped by its parent or debugger right after unlock_task_sighand(). If a concurrent posix_cpu_timer_del() runs at that moment, it won't be able to detect timer->it.cpu.firing != 0: cpu_timer_task_rcu() and/or lock_task_sighand() will fail. Add the tsk->exit_state check into run_posix_cpu_timers() to fix this. This fix is not needed if CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK=y, because exit_task_work() is called before exit_notify(). But the check still makes sense, task_work_add(&tsk->posix_cputimers_work.work) will fail anyway in this case.

atomic context [ Upstream commit 6bb05a33337b2c842373857b63de5c9bf1ae2a09 ] The following bug report happened with a PREEMPT_RT kernel: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 2012, name: kwatchdog preempt_count: 1, expected: 0 RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0 get_random_u32+0x4f/0x110 clocksource_verify_choose_cpus+0xab/0x1a0 clocksource_verify_percpu.part.0+0x6b/0x330 clocksource_watchdog_kthread+0x193/0x1a0 It is due to the fact that clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() is invoked with preemption disabled. This function invokes get_random_u32() to obtain random numbers for choosing CPUs. The batched_entropy_32 local lock and/or the base_crng.lock spinlock in driver/char/random.c will be acquired during the call. In PREEMPT_RT kernel, they are both sleeping locks and so cannot be acquired in atomic context. Fix this problem by using migrate_disable() to allow smp_processor_id() to be reliably used without introducing atomic context. preempt_disable() is then called after clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() but before the clocksource measurement is being run to avoid introducing unexpected latency.

2025-02-01hrtimers: Handle CPU state correctly on hotplugKoichiro Den1-1/+10
commit 2f8dea1692eef2b7ba6a256246ed82c365fdc686 upstream. Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to CPUHP_ONLINE: Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once. This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1 after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer(). Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which means there are dangling pointers in the worst case. Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the stale per CPU state and sets the online flag.

commit d8794ac20a299b647ba9958f6d657051fc51a540 upstream. As Andrew pointed out, it will make sense that the PTP core checked timespec64 struct's tv_sec and tv_nsec range before calling ptp->info->settime64(). As the man manual of clock_settime() said, if tp.tv_sec is negative or tp.tv_nsec is outside the range [0..999,999,999], it should return EINVAL, which include dynamic clocks which handles PTP clock, and the condition is consistent with timespec64_valid(). As Thomas suggested, timespec64_valid() only check the timespec is valid, but not ensure that the time is in a valid range, so check it ahead using timespec64_valid_strict() in pc_clock_settime() and return -EINVAL if not valid. There are some drivers that use tp->tv_sec and tp->tv_nsec directly to write registers without validity checks and assume that the higher layer has checked it, which is dangerous and will benefit from this, such as hclge_ptp_settime(), igb_ptp_settime_i210(), _rcar_gen4_ptp_settime(), and some drivers can remove the checks of itself.

The operation requires CAP_SYS_TIME and the side effect of the overflow is NTP getting out of sync.

commit 6881e75237a84093d0986f56223db3724619f26e upstream. The recent fix for making the take over of the broadcast timer more reliable retrieves a per CPU pointer in preemptible context. This went unnoticed as compilers hoist the access into the non-preemptible region where the pointer is actually used. But of course it's valid that the compiler keeps it at the place where the code puts it which rightfully triggers: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: caller is hotplug_cpu__broadcast_tick_pull+0x1c/0xc0 Move it to the actual usage site which is in a non-preemptible region.

commit f7d43dd206e7e18c182f200e67a8db8c209907fa upstream. Running the LTP hotplug stress test on a aarch64 machine results in rcu_sched stall warnings when the broadcast hrtimer was owned by the un-plugged CPU. The issue is the following: CPU1 (owns the broadcast hrtimer) CPU2 tick_broadcast_enter() // shutdown local timer device broadcast_shutdown_local() ... tick_broadcast_exit() clockevents_switch_state(dev, CLOCK_EVT_STATE_ONESHOT) // timer device is not programmed cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, tick_broadcast_force_mask) initiates offlining of CPU1 take_cpu_down() /* * CPU1 shuts down and does not * send broadcast IPI anymore */ takedown_cpu() hotplug_cpu__broadcast_tick_pull() // move broadcast hrtimer to this CPU clockevents_program_event() bc_set_next() hrtimer_start() /* * timer device is not programmed * because only the first expiring * timer will trigger clockevent * device reprogramming */ What happens is that CPU2 exits broadcast mode with force bit set, then the local timer device is not reprogrammed and CPU2 expects to receive the expired event by the broadcast IPI. But this does not happen because CPU1 is offlined by CPU2. CPU switches the clockevent device to ONESHOT state, but does not reprogram the device. The subsequent reprogramming of the hrtimer broadcast device does not program the clockevent device of CPU2 either because the pending expiry time is already in the past and the CPU expects the event to be delivered. As a consequence all CPUs which wait for a broadcast event to be delivered are stuck forever. Fix this issue by reprogramming the local timer device if the broadcast force bit of the CPU is set so that the broadcast hrtimer is delivered. [ tglx: Massage comment and change log.

2024-04-13timers: Use del_timer_sync() even on UPThomas Gleixner1-2/+0
[ Upstream commit 168f6b6ffbeec0b9333f3582e4cf637300858db5 ] del_timer_sync() is assumed to be pointless on uniprocessor systems and can be mapped to del_timer() because in theory del_timer() can never be invoked while the timer callback function is executed. This is not entirely true because del_timer() can be invoked from interrupt context and therefore hit in the middle of a running timer callback. Contrary to that del_timer_sync() is not allowed to be invoked from interrupt context unless the affected timer is marked with TIMER_IRQSAFE. del_timer_sync() has proper checks in place to detect such a situation. Give up on the UP optimization and make del_timer_sync() unconditionally available.

2024-03-26timekeeping: Fix cross-timestamp interpolation for non-x86Peter Hilber1-4/+2
[ Upstream commit 14274d0bd31b4debf28284604589f596ad2e99f2 ] So far, get_device_system_crosststamp() unconditionally passes system_counterval.cycles to timekeeping_cycles_to_ns(). But when interpolating system time (do_interp == true), system_counterval.cycles is before tkr_mono.cycle_last, contrary to the timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() expectations. On x86, CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_VALIDATE_LAST_CYCLE will mitigate on interpolating, setting delta to 0. With delta == 0, xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime are then set to the last update time, as implicitly expected by adjust_historical_crosststamp(). On other architectures, the resulting nonsense xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime corrupt the xtstamp (ts) adjustment in adjust_historical_crosststamp(). Fix this by deriving xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime from the last update time when interpolating, by using the local variable "cycles". The local variable already has the right value when interpolating, unlike system_counterval.cycles.

2024-03-26timekeeping: Fix cross-timestamp interpolation corner case decisionPeter Hilber1-8/+10
[ Upstream commit 87a41130881995f82f7adbafbfeddaebfb35f0ef ] The cycle_between() helper checks if parameter test is in the open interval (before, after). Colloquially speaking, this also applies to the counter wrap-around special case before > after. get_device_system_crosststamp() currently uses cycle_between() at the first call site to decide whether to interpolate for older counter readings. get_device_system_crosststamp() has the following problem with cycle_between() testing against an open interval: Assume that, by chance, cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last (in the following, "cycle_last" for brevity). Then, cycle_between() at the first call site, with effective argument values cycle_between(cycle_last, cycles, now), returns false, enabling interpolation. During interpolation, get_device_system_crosststamp() will then call cycle_between() at the second call site (if a history_begin was supplied). The effective argument values are cycle_between(history_begin->cycles, cycles, cycles), since system_counterval.cycles == interval_start == cycles, per the assumption. Due to the test against the open interval, cycle_between() returns false again. This causes get_device_system_crosststamp() to return -EINVAL. This failure should be avoided, since get_device_system_crosststamp() works both when cycles follows cycle_last (no interpolation), and when cycles precedes cycle_last (interpolation). For the case cycles == cycle_last, interpolation is actually unneeded. Fix this by changing cycle_between() into timestamp_in_interval(), which now checks against the closed interval, rather than the open interval. This changes the get_device_system_crosststamp() behavior for three corner cases: 1. Bypass interpolation in the case cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last, fixing the problem described above. 2. At the first timestamp_in_interval() call site, cycles == now no longer causes failure. 3. At the second timestamp_in_interval() call site, history_begin->cycles == system_counterval.cycles no longer causes failure. adjust_historical_crosststamp() also works for this corner case, where partial_history_cycles == total_history_cycles. These behavioral changes should not cause any problems.

2024-02-23clocksource: Skip watchdog check for large watchdog intervalsJiri Wiesner1-1/+24
commit 644649553508b9bacf0fc7a5bdc4f9e0165576a5 upstream. There have been reports of the watchdog marking clocksources unstable on machines with 8 NUMA nodes: clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU373: Marking clocksource 'tsc' as unstable because the skew is too large: clocksource: 'hpet' wd_nsec: 14523447520 clocksource: 'tsc' cs_nsec: 14524115132 The measured clocksource skew - the absolute difference between cs_nsec and wd_nsec - was 668 microseconds: cs_nsec - wd_nsec = 14524115132 - 14523447520 = 667612 The kernel used 200 microseconds for the uncertainty_margin of both the clocksource and watchdog, resulting in a threshold of 400 microseconds (the md variable). Both the cs_nsec and the wd_nsec value indicate that the readout interval was circa 14.5 seconds. The observed behaviour is that watchdog checks failed for large readout intervals on 8 NUMA node machines. This indicates that the size of the skew was directly proportinal to the length of the readout interval on those machines. The measured clocksource skew, 668 microseconds, was evaluated against a threshold (the md variable) that is suited for readout intervals of roughly WATCHDOG_INTERVAL, i.e. HZ >> 1, which is 0.5 second. The intention of 2e27e793e280 ("clocksource: Reduce clocksource-skew threshold") was to tighten the threshold for evaluating skew and set the lower bound for the uncertainty_margin of clocksources to twice WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW. Later in c37e85c135ce ("clocksource: Loosen clocksource watchdog constraints"), the WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW constant was increased to 125 microseconds to fit the limit of NTP, which is able to use a clocksource that suffers from up to 500 microseconds of skew per second. Both the TSC and the HPET use default uncertainty_margin. When the readout interval gets stretched the default uncertainty_margin is no longer a suitable lower bound for evaluating skew - it imposes a limit that is far stricter than the skew with which NTP can deal. The root causes of the skew being directly proportinal to the length of the readout interval are: * the inaccuracy of the shift/mult pairs of clocksources and the watchdog * the conversion to nanoseconds is imprecise for large readout intervals Prevent this by skipping the current watchdog check if the readout interval exceeds 2 * WATCHDOG_INTERVAL. Considering the maximum readout interval of 2 * WATCHDOG_INTERVAL, the current default uncertainty margin (of the TSC and HPET) corresponds to a limit on clocksource skew of 250 ppm (microseconds of skew per second). To keep the limit imposed by NTP (500 microseconds of skew per second) for all possible readout intervals, the margins would have to be scaled so that the threshold value is proportional to the length of the actual readout interval. As for why the readout interval may get stretched: Since the watchdog is executed in softirq context the expiration of the watchdog timer can get severely delayed on account of a ksoftirqd thread not getting to run in a timely manner. Surely, a system with such belated softirq execution is not working well and the scheduling issue should be looked into but the clocksource watchdog should be able to deal with it accordingly.
