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.

The trace_clock_jiffies() function that handles the "uptime" clock for
tracing calls jiffies_64_to_clock_t(). This causes the function tracer to
constantly recurse when the tracing clock is set to "uptime". Mark it
notrace to prevent unnecessary recursion when using the "uptime" clock.

[ Upstream commit 5d6446f409da00e5a389125ddb5ce09f5bc404c9 ]
It turns out that __run_hrtimer() will trace like:
<idle>-0 [032] d.h2. 20705.474563: hrtimer_cancel: hrtimer=0xff2db8f77f8226e8
<idle>-0 [032] d.h1. 20705.474563: hrtimer_expire_entry: hrtimer=0xff2db8f77f8226e8 now=20699452001850 function=tick_nohz_handler/0x0
Which is a bit nonsensical, the timer doesn't get canceled on
expiration. The cause is the use of the incorrect debug helper.

[ 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.

[ Upstream commit e859d375d1694488015e6804bfeea527a0b25b9f ]
File descriptor based pc_clock_*() operations of dynamic posix clocks
have access to the file pointer and implement permission checks in the
generic code before invoking the relevant dynamic clock callback.
Character device operations (open, read, poll, ioctl) do not implement a
generic permission control and the dynamic clock callbacks have no
access to the file pointer to implement them.
Extend struct posix_clock_context with a struct file pointer and
initialize it in posix_clock_open(), so that all dynamic clock callbacks
can access it.

commit 20739af07383e6eb1ec59dcd70b72ebfa9ac362c upstream.
There is a race condition between timer_shutdown_sync() and timer
expiration that can lead to hitting a WARN_ON in expire_timers().
The issue occurs when timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
to NULL while the timer is still running on another CPU. The race
scenario looks like this:
CPU0 CPU1
<SOFTIRQ>
lock_timer_base()
expire_timers()
base->running_timer = timer;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn enter]
mod_timer()
...
timer_shutdown_sync()
lock_timer_base()
// For now, will not detach the timer but only clear its function to NULL
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn exit]
lock_timer_base()
base->running_timer = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
...
// Now timer is pending while its function set to NULL.
// next timer trigger
<SOFTIRQ>
expire_timers()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) // hit
...
lock_timer_base()
// Now timer will detach
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
The problem is that timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
regardless of whether the timer is currently running. This can leave a
pending timer with a NULL function pointer, which triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) check in expire_timers().
Fix this by only clearing the timer function when actually detaching the
timer. If the timer is running, leave the function pointer intact, which is
safe because the timer will be properly detached when it finishes running.

[ Upstream commit e895f8e29119c8c966ea794af9e9100b10becb88 ]
When testing softirq based hrtimers on an ARM32 board, with high resolution
mode and NOHZ inactive, softirq based hrtimers fail to expire after being
moved away from an offline CPU:
CPU0 CPU1
hrtimer_start(..., HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT);
cpu_down(CPU1) ...
hrtimers_cpu_dying()
// Migrate timers to CPU0
smp_call_function_single(CPU0, returgger_next_event);
retrigger_next_event()
if (!highres && !nohz)
return;
As retrigger_next_event() is a NOOP when both high resolution timers and
NOHZ are inactive CPU0's hrtimer_cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is not
updated and the migrated softirq timers never expire unless there is a
softirq based hrtimer queued on CPU0 later.
Fix this by removing the hrtimer_hres_active() and tick_nohz_active() check
in retrigger_next_event(), which enforces a full update of the CPU base.
As this is not a fast path the extra cost does not matter.

[ 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.

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.

commit 53dac345395c0d2493cbc2f4c85fe38aef5b63f5 upstream.
hrtimers are migrated away from the dying CPU to any online target at
the CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING stage in order not to delay bandwidth timers
handling tasks involved in the CPU hotplug forward progress.
However wakeups can still be performed by the outgoing CPU after
CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING. Those can result again in bandwidth timers being
armed. Depending on several considerations (crystal ball power management
based election, earliest timer already enqueued, timer migration enabled or
not), the target may eventually be the current CPU even if offline. If that
happens, the timer is eventually ignored.
The most notable example is RCU which had to deal with each and every of
those wake-ups by deferring them to an online CPU, along with related
workarounds:
_ e787644caf76 (rcu: Defer RCU kthreads wakeup when CPU is dying)
_ 9139f93209d1 (rcu/nocb: Fix RT throttling hrtimer armed from offline CPU)
_ f7345ccc62a4 (rcu/nocb: Fix rcuog wake-up from offline softirq)
The problem isn't confined to RCU though as the stop machine kthread
(which runs CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING) reports its completion at the end
of its work through cpu_stop_signal_done() and performs a wake up that
eventually arms the deadline server timer:

Instead of providing yet another bandaid to work around the situation, fix
it in the hrtimers infrastructure instead: always migrate away a timer to
an online target whenever it is enqueued from an offline CPU.
This will also allow to revert all the above RCU disgraceful hacks.

[ Upstream commit a52067c24ccf6ee4c85acffa0f155e9714f9adce ]
This reverts commit f590308536db ("timer debug: Hide kernel addresses via
%pK in /proc/timer_list")
The timer list helper SEQ_printf() uses either the real seq_printf() for
procfs output or vprintk() to print to the kernel log, when invoked from
SysRq-q. It uses %pK for printing pointers.
In the past %pK was prefered over %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log. Since commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash
addresses printed with %p") the regular %p has been improved to avoid this
issue.
Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant to be used
through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw pointers or
acquire sleeping looks in atomic contexts.
Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer, easier to reason
about and sufficient here.

commit ed4fb6d7ef68111bb539283561953e5c6e9a6e38 upstream.
The timerslack_ns setting is used to specify how much the hardware
timers should be delayed, to potentially dispatch multiple timers in a
single interrupt. This is a performance optimization. Timers of
realtime tasks (having a realtime scheduling policy) should not be
delayed.
This logic was inconsitently applied to the hrtimers, leading to delays
of realtime tasks which used timed waits for events (e.g. condition
variables). Due to the downstream override of the slack for rt tasks,
the procfs reported incorrect (non-zero) timerslack_ns values.
This is changed by setting the timer_slack_ns task attribute to 0 for
all tasks with a rt policy. By that, downstream users do not need to
specially handle rt tasks (w.r.t. the slack), and the procfs entry
shows the correct value of "0". Setting non-zero slack values (either
via procfs or PR_SET_TIMERSLACK) on tasks with a rt policy is ignored,

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.

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 ]

commit f5807b0606da7ac7c1b74a386b22134ec7702d05 upstream.
Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

and get the clk->rwsem read lock, so the error path should release
the lock to make the lock balance and fput the clockid's fd to make
the refcount balance and release the fd related resource.

unbalanced locking. Check timespec64_valid_strict() before

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 hrtimer function callback must not be NULL. It has to be specified by

is queued without a function callback, the kernel crashes with a null

[ Upstream commit d0304569fb019d1bcfbbbce1ce6df6b96f04079b ]
Kernel timekeeping is designed to keep the change in cycles (since the last
timer interrupt) below max_cycles, which prevents multiplication overflow
when converting cycles to nanoseconds. However, if timer interrupts stop,
the clocksource_cyc2ns() calculation will eventually overflow.
Add protection against that. Simplify by folding together
clocksource_delta() and clocksource_cyc2ns() into cycles_to_nsec_safe().
Check against max_cycles, falling back to a slower higher precision
calculation.

[ Upstream commit 3ce74f1a8566dbbc9774f85fb0ce781fe290fd32 ]
tick_nohz_idle_got_tick() is called by cpuidle_reflect() within the idle
loop with interrupts enabled. This function modifies the struct
tick_sched's bitfield "got_idle_tick". However this bitfield is stored
within the same mask as other bitfields that can be modified from
interrupts.
Fortunately so far it looks like the only race that can happen is while
writing ->got_idle_tick to 0, an interrupt fires and writes the
->idle_active field to 0. It's then possible that the interrupted write
to ->got_idle_tick writes back the old value of ->idle_active back to 1.
However if that happens, the worst possible outcome is that the time
spent between that interrupt and the upcoming call to
tick_nohz_idle_exit() is accounted as idle, which is negligible quantity.
Still all the bitfield writes within this struct tick_sched's shadow
mask should be IRQ-safe. Therefore move this bitfield out to its own
storage to avoid further suprises.

commit 5916be8a53de6401871bdd953f6c60237b47d6d3 upstream.
The addition of the bases argument to clock_was_set() fixed up all call
sites correctly except for do_adjtimex(). This uses CLOCK_REALTIME
instead of CLOCK_SET_WALL as argument. CLOCK_REALTIME is 0.
As a result the effect of that clock_was_set() notification is incomplete
and might result in timers expiring late because the hrtimer code does
not re-evaluate the affected clock bases.
Use CLOCK_SET_WALL instead of CLOCK_REALTIME to tell the hrtimers code
which clock bases need to be re-evaluated.

[ Upstream commit 2ed08e4bc53298db3f87b528cd804cb0cce066a9 ]
On a 8-socket server the TSC is wrongly marked as 'unstable' and disabled
during boot time on about one out of 120 boot attempts:
clocksource: timekeeping watchdog on CPU227: wd-tsc-wd excessive read-back delay of 153560ns vs. limit of 125000ns,
wd-wd read-back delay only 11440ns, attempt 3, marking tsc unstable
tsc: Marking TSC unstable due to clocksource watchdog
TSC found unstable after boot, most likely due to broken BIOS. Use 'tsc=unstable'.
sched_clock: Marking unstable (119294969739, 159204297)<-(125446229205, -5992055152)
clocksource: Checking clocksource tsc synchronization from CPU 319 to CPUs 0,99,136,180,210,542,601,896.
clocksource: Switched to clocksource hpet
The reason is that for platform with a large number of CPUs, there are
sporadic big or huge read latencies while reading the watchog/clocksource
during boot or when system is under stress work load, and the frequency and
maximum value of the latency goes up with the number of online CPUs.
The cCurrent code already has logic to detect and filter such high latency
case by reading the watchdog twice and checking the two deltas. Due to the
randomness of the latency, there is a low probabilty that the first delta
(latency) is big, but the second delta is small and looks valid. The
watchdog code retries the readouts by default twice, which is not
necessarily sufficient for systems with a large number of CPUs.
There is a command line parameter 'max_cswd_read_retries' which allows to
increase the number of retries, but that's not user friendly as it needs to
be tweaked per system. As the number of required retries is proportional to
the number of online CPUs, this parameter can be calculated at runtime.
Scale and enlarge the number of retries according to the number of online
CPUs and remove the command line parameter completely.
