2025-06-27posix-cpu-timers: fix race between handle_posix_cpu_timers() and ↵Oleg Nesterov1-0/+9
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.

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. [ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ] Fixes: 5c0930ccaad5 ("hrtimers: Push pending hrtimers away from outgoing CPU earlier") Signed-off-by: Koichiro Den <koichiro.den@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241220134421.3809834-1-koichiro.den@canonical.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2024-11-08posix-clock: Fix missing timespec64 check in pc_clock_settime()Jinjie Ruan1-0/+3
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.

2024-08-19tick/broadcast: Make takeover of broadcast hrtimer reliableYu Liao1-0/+23
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.

[ 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.

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.

2024-02-23hrtimer: Report offline hrtimer enqueueFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+3
commit dad6a09f3148257ac1773cd90934d721d68ab595 upstream. The hrtimers migration on CPU-down hotplug process has been moved earlier, before the CPU actually goes to die. This leaves a small window of opportunity to queue an hrtimer in a blind spot, leaving it ignored. For example a practical case has been reported with RCU waking up a SCHED_FIFO task right before the CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD stage, queuing that way a sched/rt timer to the local offline CPU. Make sure such situations never go unnoticed and warn when that happens. Fixes: 5c0930ccaad5 ("hrtimers: Push pending hrtimers away from outgoing CPU earlier") Reported-by: Paul E.

commit 71fee48fb772ac4f6cfa63dbebc5629de8b4cc09 upstream. When offlining and onlining CPUs the overall reported idle and iowait times as reported by /proc/stat jump backward and forward: cpu 132 0 176 225249 47 6 6 21 0 0 cpu0 80 0 115 112575 33 3 4 18 0 0 cpu1 52 0 60 112673 13 3 1 2 0 0 cpu 133 0 177 226681 47 6 6 21 0 0 cpu0 80 0 116 113387 33 3 4 18 0 0 cpu 133 0 178 114431 33 6 6 21 0 0 <---- jump backward cpu0 80 0 116 114247 33 3 4 18 0 0 cpu1 52 0 61 183 0 3 1 2 0 0 <---- idle + iowait start with 0 cpu 133 0 178 228956 47 6 6 21 0 0 <---- jump forward cpu0 81 0 117 114929 33 3 4 18 0 0 Reason for this is that get_idle_time() in fs/proc/stat.c has different sources for both values depending on if a CPU is online or offline: - if a CPU is online the values may be taken from its per cpu tick_cpu_sched structure - if a CPU is offline the values are taken from its per cpu cpustat structure The problem is that the per cpu tick_cpu_sched structure is set to zero on CPU offline. See tick_cancel_sched_timer() in kernel/time/tick-sched.c. Therefore when a CPU is brought offline and online afterwards both its idle and iowait sleeptime will be zero, causing a jump backward in total system idle and iowait sleeptime. In a similar way if a CPU is then brought offline again the total idle and iowait sleeptimes will jump forward. It looks like this behavior was introduced with commit 4b0c0f294f60 ("tick: Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down"). This was only noticed now on s390, since we switched to generic idle time reporting with commit be76ea614460 ("s390/idle: remove arch_cpu_idle_time() and corresponding code"). Fix this by preserving the values of idle_sleeptime and iowait_sleeptime members of the per-cpu tick_sched structure on CPU hotplug.

Yu discovered a more involved variant where a task which has a bandwidth timer started on the outgoing CPU holds a lock and then gets throttled. If the lock required by one of the CPU hotplug callbacks the hotplug operation deadlocks because the unthrottling timer event is not handled on the dying CPU and can only be recovered once the control CPU reaches the hotplug state which pulls the pending hrtimers from the dead CPU. Solve this by pushing the hrtimers away from the dying CPU in the dying callbacks. Nothing can queue a hrtimer on the dying CPU at that point because all other CPUs spin in stop_machine() with interrupts disabled and once the operation is finished the CPU is marked offline.

2023-07-27posix-timers: Ensure timer ID search-loop limit is validThomas Gleixner1-13/+18
[ Upstream commit 8ce8849dd1e78dadcee0ec9acbd259d239b7069f ] posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation. This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the starting point. But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out lockless, which leads to the following problem: CPU0 CPU1 posix_timer_add() start = sig->posix_timer_id; lock(hash_lock); ... posix_timer_add() if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0) start = sig->posix_timer_id; sig->posix_timer_id = 0; So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break never happens because the condition can never be true: if (sig->posix_timer_id == start) break; While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness. Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock.

commit 13bb06f8dd42071cb9a49f6e21099eea05d4b856 upstream. The tick period is aligned very early while the first clock_event_device is registered. At that point the system runs in periodic mode and switches later to one-shot mode if possible. The next wake-up event is programmed based on the aligned value (tick_next_period) but the delta value, that is used to program the clock_event_device, is computed based on ktime_get(). With the subtracted offset, the device fires earlier than the exact time frame. With a large enough offset the system programs the timer for the next wake-up and the remaining time left is too small to make any boot progress. The system hangs. Move the alignment later to the setup of tick_sched timer. At this point the system switches to oneshot mode and a high resolution clocksource is available. At this point it is safe to align tick_next_period because ktime_get() will now return accurate (not jiffies based) time. [bigeasy: Patch description + testing].

In !PREEMPT kernels, this can prevent RCU's attempts to enlist the aid of that CPU's executions of cond_resched(), which can in turn result in an arbitrarily delayed grace period and thus an OOM. RCU therefore needs a way to enable a holdout nohz_full CPU's scheduler-clock interrupt. This commit therefore provides a new TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU value which RCU can pass to tick_dep_set_cpu() and friends to force on the scheduler-clock interrupt for a specified CPU or task. In some cases, rcutorture needs to turn on the scheduler-clock tick, so this commit also exports the relevant symbols to GPL-licensed modules.

[ Upstream commit e9523a0d81899361214d118ad60ef76f0e92f71d ] With HIGHRES enabled tick_sched_timer() is programmed every jiffy to expire the timer_list timers. This timer is programmed accurate in respect to CLOCK_MONOTONIC so that 0 seconds and nanoseconds is the first tick and the next one is 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms later. For HZ=250 it is every 4 ms and so based on the current time the next tick can be computed. This accuracy broke since the commit mentioned below because the jiffy based clocksource is initialized with higher accuracy in read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset(). This higher accuracy is inherited during the setup in tick_setup_device(). The timer still fires every 4ms with HZ=250 but timer is no longer aligned with CLOCK_MONOTONIC with 0 as it origin but has an offset in the us/ns part of the timestamp. The offset differs with every boot and makes it impossible for user land to align with the tick. Align the tick period with CLOCK_MONOTONIC ensuring that it is always a multiple of 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms.

The spinlock in seqlock cannot be unconditionally replaced by a raw_spinlock_t as many seqlock users have nesting spinlock sections or other code which is not suitable to run in truly atomic context on RT.

2023-03-11timers: Prevent union confusion from unexpected restart_syscall()Jann Horn3-0/+6
[ Upstream commit 9f76d59173d9d146e96c66886b671c1915a5c5e5 ] The nanosleep syscalls use the restart_block mechanism, with a quirk: The `type` and `rmtp`/`compat_rmtp` fields are set up unconditionally on syscall entry, while the rest of the restart_block is only set up in the unlikely case that the syscall is actually interrupted by a signal (or pseudo-signal) that doesn't have a signal handler. If the restart_block was set up by a previous syscall (futex(..., FUTEX_WAIT, ...) or poll()) and hasn't been invalidated somehow since then, this will clobber some of the union fields used by futex_wait_restart() and do_restart_poll(). If userspace afterwards wrongly calls the restart_syscall syscall, futex_wait_restart()/do_restart_poll() will read struct fields that have been clobbered. This doesn't actually lead to anything particularly interesting because none of the union fields contain trusted kernel data, and futex(..., FUTEX_WAIT, ...) and poll() aren't syscalls where it makes much sense to apply seccomp filters to their arguments. So the current consequences are just of the "if userspace does bad stuff, it can damage itself, and that's not a problem" flavor. But still, it seems like a hazard for future developers, so invalidate the restart_block when partly setting it up in the nanosleep syscalls.

2023-02-25alarmtimer: Prevent starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGNThomas Gleixner1-4/+29
commit d125d1349abeb46945dc5e98f7824bf688266f13 upstream. syzbot reported a RCU stall which is caused by setting up an alarmtimer with a very small interval and ignoring the signal. The reproducer arms the alarm timer with a relative expiry of 8ns and an interval of 9ns. Not a problem per se, but that's an issue when the signal is ignored because then the timer is immediately rearmed because there is no way to delay that rearming to the signal delivery path. See posix_timer_fn() and commit 58229a189942 ("posix-timers: Prevent softirq starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGN") for details. The reproducer does not set SIG_IGN explicitely, but it sets up the timers signal with SIGCONT. That has the same effect as explicitely setting SIG_IGN for a signal as SIGCONT is ignored if there is no handler set and the task is not ptraced. The log clearly shows that: [pid 5102] --- SIGCONT {si_signo=SIGCONT, si_code=SI_TIMER, si_timerid=0, si_overrun=316014, si_int=0, si_ptr=NULL} --- It works because the tasks are traced and therefore the signal is queued so the tracer can see it, which delays the restart of the timer to the signal delivery path. But then the tracer is killed: [pid 5087] kill(-5102, SIGKILL <unfinished ...> ... ./strace-static-x86_64: Process 5107 detached and after it's gone the stall can be observed: syzkaller login: [ 79.439102][ C0] hrtimer: interrupt took 68471 ns [ 184.460538][ C1] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: ...

That's accurate vs. the overrun accounting, but slightly inaccurate vs. timer_gettimer(2). The comment in that function says what needs to be done and there was a fix available for the regular userspace induced SIG_IGN mechanism, but that did not work due to the implicit ignore for SIGCONT and similar signals. This needs to be worked on, but for now the only available workaround is to do exactly what posix_timer_fn() does: Increase the interval of self-rearming timers, which have their signal ignored, to at least a jiffie. Interestingly this has been fixed before via commit ff86bf0c65f1 ("alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals") already, but that fix got lost in a later rework.

commit b8ac29b40183a6038919768b5d189c9bd91ce9b4 upstream. The rng's random_init() function contributes the real time to the rng at boot time, so that events can at least start in relation to something particular in the real world. But this clock might not yet be set that point in boot, so nothing is contributed. In addition, the relation between minor clock changes from, say, NTP, and the cycle counter is potentially useful entropic data. This commit addresses this by mixing in a time stamp on calls to settimeofday and adjtimex. No entropy is credited in doing so, so it doesn't make initialization faster, but it is still useful input to have.

It's not necessarily as good as being able to quickly access a cycle counter that the CPU has, but it's still something, even when it falls back to being jiffies-based. In the event that a given arch does not define get_cycles(), falling back to the get_cycles() default implementation that returns 0 is really not the best we can do. Instead, at least calling random_get_entropy_fallback() would be preferable, because that always needs to return _something_, even falling back to jiffies eventually. It's not as though random_get_entropy_fallback() is super high precision or guaranteed to be entropic, but basically anything that's not zero all the time is better than returning zero all the time. Finally, since random_get_entropy_fallback() is used during extremely early boot when randomizing freelists in mm_init(), it can be called before timekeeping has been initialized. In that case there really is nothing we can do; jiffies hasn't even started ticking yet. So just give up and return 0. Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Jason A.

commit 40e97e42961f8c6cc7bd5fe67cc18417e02d78f1 upstream. While running some testing on code that happened to allow the variable tick_nohz_full_running to get set but with no "possible" NOHZ cores to back up that setting, this warning triggered: if (unlikely(tick_do_timer_cpu == TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE)) WARN_ON(tick_nohz_full_running); The console was overwhemled with an endless stream of one WARN per tick per core and there was no way to even see what was going on w/o using a serial console to capture it and then trace it back to this. Change it to WARN_ON_ONCE().

2021-12-22timekeeping: Really make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positiveYu Liao1-2/+1
commit 4e8c11b6b3f0b6a283e898344f154641eda94266 upstream. Even after commit e1d7ba873555 ("time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positive") it is still possible to make wall_to_monotonic positive by running the following code: int main(void) { struct timespec time; clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &time); time.tv_nsec = 0; clock_settime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &time); return 0; } The reason is that the second parameter of timespec64_compare(), ts_delta, may be unnormalized because the delta is calculated with an open coded substraction which causes the comparison of tv_sec to yield the wrong result: wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 } ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -9, .tv_nsec = -900000000 } That makes timespec64_compare() claim that wall_to_monotonic < ts_delta, but actually the result should be wall_to_monotonic > ts_delta. After normalization, the result of timespec64_compare() is correct because the tv_sec comparison is not longer misleading: wall_to_monotonic = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 900000000 } ts_delta = { .tv_sec = -10, .tv_nsec = 100000000 } Use timespec64_sub() to ensure that ts_delta is normalized, which fixes the issue.

2021-09-15hrtimer: Avoid double reprogramming in __hrtimer_start_range_ns()Thomas Gleixner1-7/+53
[ Upstream commit 627ef5ae2df8eeccb20d5af0e4cfa4df9e61ed28 ] If __hrtimer_start_range_ns() is invoked with an already armed hrtimer then the timer has to be canceled first and then added back. If the timer is the first expiring timer then on removal the clockevent device is reprogrammed to the next expiring timer to avoid that the pending expiry fires needlessly. If the new expiry time ends up to be the first expiry again then the clock event device has to reprogrammed again. Avoid this by checking whether the timer is the first to expire and in that case, keep the timer on the current CPU and delay the reprogramming up to the point where the timer has been enqueued again.

[ Upstream commit 406dd42bd1ba0c01babf9cde169bb319e52f6147 ] When an itimer deactivates a previously armed expiration, it simply doesn't do anything. As a result the process wide cputime counter keeps running and the tick dependency stays set until it reaches the old ghost expiration value. This can be reproduced with the following snippet: void trigger_process_counter(void) { struct itimerval n = {}; n.it_value.tv_sec = 100; setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL); n.it_value.tv_sec = 0; setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL, &n, NULL); } Fix this with resetting the relevant base expiration.

2021-08-12timers: Move clearing of base::timer_running under base:: LockThomas Gleixner1-2/+4
commit bb7262b295472eb6858b5c49893954794027cd84 upstream. syzbot reported KCSAN data races vs. timer_base::timer_running being set to NULL without holding base::lock in expire_timers(). This looks innocent and most reads are clearly not problematic, but Frederic identified an issue which is: int data = 0; void timer_func(struct timer_list *t) { data = 1; } CPU 0 CPU 1 ------------------------------ -------------------------- base = lock_timer_base(timer, &flags); raw_spin_unlock(&base->lock); if (base->running_timer != timer) call_timer_fn(timer, fn, baseclk); ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true); base->running_timer = NULL; raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&base->lock, flags); raw_spin_lock(&base->lock); x = data; If the timer has previously executed on CPU 1 and then CPU 0 can observe base->running_timer == NULL and returns, assuming the timer has completed, but it's not guaranteed on all architectures. The comment for del_timer_sync() makes that guarantee. Moving the assignment under base->lock prevents this. For non-RT kernel it's performance wise completely irrelevant whether the store happens before or after taking the lock. For an RT kernel moving the store under the lock requires an extra unlock/lock pair in the case that there is a waiter for the timer, but that's not the end of the world.

2021-07-14clocksource: Retry clock read if long delays detectedPaul E. McKenney1-6/+47
[ Upstream commit db3a34e17433de2390eb80d436970edcebd0ca3e ] When the clocksource watchdog marks a clock as unstable, this might be due to that clock being unstable or it might be due to delays that happen to occur between the reads of the two clocks. Yes, interrupts are disabled across those two reads, but there are no shortage of things that can delay interrupts-disabled regions of code ranging from SMI handlers to vCPU preemption. It would be good to have some indication as to why the clock was marked unstable. Therefore, re-read the watchdog clock on either side of the read from the clock under test. If the watchdog clock shows an excessive time delta between its pair of reads, the reads are retried. The maximum number of retries is specified by a new kernel boot parameter clocksource.max_cswd_read_retries, which defaults to three, that is, up to four reads, one initial and up to three retries. If more than one retry was required, a message is printed on the console (the occasional single retry is expected behavior, especially in guest OSes). If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the clock under test will be marked unstable. However, the probability of this happening due to various sorts of delays is quite small. In addition, the reason (clock-read delays) for the unstable marking will be apparent. Reported-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2021-03-17hrtimer: Update softirq_expires_next correctly after __hrtimer_get_next_event()Anna-Maria Behnsen1-21/+39
[ Upstream commit 46eb1701c046cc18c032fa68f3c8ccbf24483ee4 ] hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt() invokes __hrtimer_get_next_event() to find the earliest expiry time of hrtimer bases. __hrtimer_get_next_event() does not update cpu_base::[softirq_]_expires_next to preserve reprogramming logic. That needs to be done at the callsites. hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates cpu_base::softirq_expires_next only when the first expiring timer is a softirq timer and the soft interrupt is not activated. That's wrong because cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is left stale when the first expiring timer of all bases is a timer which expires in hard interrupt context. hrtimer_interrupt() does never update cpu_base::softirq_expires_next which is wrong too. That becomes a problem when clock_settime() sets CLOCK_REALTIME forward and the first soft expiring timer is in the CLOCK_REALTIME_SOFT base. Setting CLOCK_REALTIME forward moves the clock MONOTONIC based expiry time of that timer before the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next. cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is cached to make the check for raising the soft interrupt fast. In the above case the soft interrupt won't be raised until clock monotonic reaches the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next value. That's incorrect, but what's worse it that if the softirq timer becomes the first expiring timer of all clock bases after the hard expiry timer has been handled the reprogramming of the clockevent from hrtimer_interrupt() will result in an interrupt storm. That happens because the reprogramming does not use cpu_base::softirq_expires_next, it uses __hrtimer_get_next_event() which returns the actual expiry time. Once clock MONOTONIC reaches cpu_base::softirq_expires_next the soft interrupt is raised and the storm subsides. Change the logic in hrtimer_force_reprogram() to evaluate the soft and hard bases seperately, update softirq_expires_next and handle the case when a soft expiring timer is the first of all bases by comparing the expiry times and updating the required cpu base fields. Split this functionality into a separate function to be able to use it in hrtimer_interrupt() as well without copy paste.

commit 5167c506d62dd9ffab73eba23c79b0a8845c9fe1 upstream. Suspend to IDLE invokes tick_unfreeze() on resume. tick_unfreeze() on the first resuming CPU resumes timekeeping, which also has the side effect of resetting the softlockup watchdog on this CPU. But on the secondary CPUs the watchdog is not reset in the resume / unfreeze() path, which can result in false softlockup warnings on those CPUs depending on the time spent in suspend.
