sysctl changes for v6.10-rc1
Summary
* Removed sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*
Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size and
runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for net/, io_uring/,
mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline through their respective
subsystems making the next release the most likely place where the final
series that removes the check for proc_name == NULL will land. This PR adds
to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.
* Adjusted ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
Adjustments:
- Removing unused ctl_table function arguments
- Moving non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
- Making ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure
Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by keeping the
pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no ctl_tables where
made const in this PR, the ground work for making that possible has started
with these changes sent by Thomas Weißschuh.
Testing
* These changes went into linux-next after v6.9-rc4; giving it a good month of
testing.

Timers and timekeeping updates:
- Core code:
- Make timekeeping and VDSO time readouts resilent against math overflow:
In guest context the kernel is prone to math overflow when the host
defers the timer interrupt due to overload, malfunction or malice.
This can be mitigated by checking the clocksource delta for the
maximum deferrement which is readily available. If that value is
exceeded then the code uses a slowpath function which can handle the
multiplication overflow.
This functionality is enabled unconditionally in the kernel, but made
conditional in the VDSO code. The latter is conditional because it
allows architectures to optimize the check so it is not causing
performance regressions.
On X86 this is achieved by reworking the existing check for negative
TSC deltas as a negative delta obviously exceeds the maximum
deferrement when it is evaluated as an unsigned value. That avoids two
conditionals in the hotpath and allows to hide both the negative delta
and the large delta handling in the same slow path.
- Add an initial minimal ktime_t abstraction for Rust
- The usual boring cleanups and enhancements
- Drivers:
- Boring updates to device trees and trivial enhancements in various
drivers.

clocksource: Make watchdog and suspend-timing multiplication overflow safe
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.

timers/migration: Fix ignored event due to missing CPU update
When a group event is updated with its expiry unchanged but a different
CPU, that target change may go unnoticed and the event may be propagated
up with a stale CPU value. The following depicts a scenario that has
been actually observed:
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = TGRP1:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T0
/ \
0 (T0) 1 (T1)
idle idle
0) The hierarchy has 3 levels. The left part (GRP1:0) is all idle,
including CPU 0 and CPU 1 which have a timer each: T0 and T1. They have
the same expiry value.
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = KTIME_MAX
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T0
/ \
0 (T0) 1 (T1)
idle idle
1) The migrator in GRP1:1 handles remotely T0. The event is dequeued
from the top and T0 executed.
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = KTIME_MAX
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1 (T1)
idle idle
2) The migrator in GRP1:1 fetches the next timer for CPU 0 and finds
none. But it updates the events from its groups, starting with GRP0:0
which now has T1 as its next event. So far so good.
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = KTIME_MAX
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1 (T1)
idle idle
3) The migrator in GRP1:1 proceeds upward and updates the events in
GRP1:0. The child event TGRP0:0 is found queued with the same expiry
as before. And therefore it is left unchanged. However the target CPU
is not the same but that fact is ignored so TGRP0:0 still points to
CPU 0 when it should point to CPU 1.
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = TGRP1:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1 (T1)
idle idle
4) The propagation has reached the top level and TGRP1:0, having TGRP0:0
as its first event, also wrongly points to CPU 0. TGRP1:0 is added to
the top level group.
[GRP2:0]
migrator = GRP1:1
active = GRP1:1
nextevt = KTIME_MAX
/ \
[GRP1:0] [GRP1:1]
migrator = NONE [...]
active = NONE
nextevt = TGRP0:0 (T0)
/ \
[GRP0:0] [...]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1 (T1)
idle idle
5) The migrator in GRP1:1 dequeues the next event in top level pointing
to CPU 0. But since it actually doesn't see any real event in CPU 0, it
early returns.
6) T1 is left unhandled until either CPU 0 or CPU 1 wake up.
Some other bad scenario may involve trees with just two levels.
Fix this with unconditionally updating the CPU of the child event before
considering to early return while updating a queued event with an
unchanged expiry value.

Two regression fixes for the timer and timer migration code:
1) Prevent endless timer requeuing which is caused by two CPUs racing out
of idle. This happens when the last CPU goes idle and therefore has to
ensure to expire the pending global timers and some other CPU come out
of idle at the same time and the other CPU wins the race and expires
the global queue. This causes the last CPU to chase ghost timers
forever and reprogramming it's clockevent device endlessly.
Cure this by re-evaluating the wakeup time unconditionally.
2) The split into local (pinned) and global timers in the timer wheel
caused a regression for NOHZ full as it broke the idle tracking of
global timers. On NOHZ full this prevents an self IPI being sent which
in turn causes the timer to be not programmed and not being expired on
time.
Restore the idle tracking for the global timer base so that the self
IPI condition for NOHZ full is working correctly again.

timers: Fix removed self-IPI on global timer's enqueue in nohz_full
While running in nohz_full mode, a task may enqueue a timer while the tick is stopped. However the only places where the timer wheel, alongside the timer migration machinery's decision, may reprogram the next event accordingly with that new timer's expiry are the idle loop or any IRQ tail. However neither the idle task nor an interrupt may run on the CPU if it resumes busy work in userspace for a long while in full dynticks mode. To solve this, the timer enqueue path raises a self-IPI that will re-evaluate the timer wheel on its IRQ tail. This asynchronous solution avoids potential locking inversion. This is supposed to happen both for local and global timers but commit: |

timers/migration: Fix endless timer requeue after idle interrupts
When a CPU is an idle migrator, but another CPU wakes up before it,
becomes an active migrator and handles the queue, the initial idle
migrator may end up endlessly reprogramming its clockevent, chasing ghost
timers forever such as in the following scenario:
[GRP0:0]
migrator = 0
active = 0
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1
active idle (T1)
0) CPU 1 is idle and has a timer queued (T1), CPU 0 is active and is
the active migrator.
[GRP0:0]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T1
/ \
0 1
idle idle (T1)
wakeup = T1
1) CPU 0 is now idle and is therefore the idle migrator. It has
programmed its next timer interrupt to handle T1.
[GRP0:0]
migrator = 1
active = 1
nextevt = KTIME_MAX
/ \
0 1
idle active
wakeup = T1
2) CPU 1 has woken up, it is now active and it has just handled its own
timer T1.
3) CPU 0 gets a timer interrupt to handle T1 but tmigr_handle_remote()
realize it is not the migrator anymore. So it early returns without
observing that T1 has been expired already and therefore without
updating its ->wakeup value.
4) CPU 0 goes into tmigr_cpu_new_timer() which also early returns
because it doesn't queue a timer of its own. So ->wakeup is left
unchanged and the next timer is programmed to fire now.
5) goto 3) forever
This results in timer interrupt storms in idle and also in nohz_full (as
observed in rcutorture's TREE07 scenario).
Fix this with forcing a re-evaluation of tmc->wakeup while trying
remote timer handling when the CPU isn't the migrator anymmore. The
check is inherently racy but in the worst case the CPU just races setting
the KTIME_MAX value that a remote expiry also tries to set.

timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on deactivation
When a CPU enters into idle and deactivates itself from the timer
migration hierarchy without any global timer of its own to propagate,
the group event of that CPU is set to "ignore" and tmigr_update_events()
accordingly performs an early return without considering timers queued
by other CPUs.
If the hierarchy has a single level, and the CPU is the last one to
enter idle, it will ignore others' global timers, as in the following
layout:
[GRP0:0]
migrator = 0
active = 0
nextevt = T0i
/ \
0 1
active (T0i) idle (T1)
0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
[GRP0:0]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T0i
/ \
0 1
idle (T0i) idle (T1)
1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1 and CPU 0 goes to idle with T1
unhandled.
This isn't proper to single level hierarchy though. A similar issue,
although slightly different, may arise on multi-level:
[GRP1:0]
migrator = GRP0:0
active = GRP0:0
nextevt = T0:0i, T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = 0 migrator = NONE
active = 0 active = NONE
nextevt = T0i nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 (T0i) 1 (T1) 2 (T2) 3
active idle idle idle
0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
CPU 2 also has a timer. The expiry order is T0 (ignored) < T1 < T2
[GRP1:0]
migrator = GRP0:0
active = GRP0:0
nextevt = T0:0i, T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = NONE migrator = NONE
active = NONE active = NONE
nextevt = T0i nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 (T0i) 1 (T1) 2 (T2) 3
idle idle idle idle
1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1. The change only propagated up to 1st
level so far.
[GRP1:0]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = NONE migrator = NONE
active = NONE active = NONE
nextevt = T0i nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 (T0i) 1 (T1) 2 (T2) 3
idle idle idle idle
2) The change now propagates up to the top. tmigr_update_events() finds
that the child event is ignored and thus removes it. The top level next
event is now T2 which is returned to CPU 0 as its next effective expiry
to take account for as the global idle migrator. However T1 has been
ignored along the way, leaving it unhandled.
Fix those issues with removing the buggy related early return. Ignored
child events must not prevent from evaluating the other events within
the same group.

sched/balancing: Rename scheduler_tick() => sched_tick()
- Standardize on prefixing scheduler-internal functions defined in <linux/sched.h> with sched_*() prefix. scheduler_tick() was the only function using the scheduler_ prefix. Harmonize it. - The other reason to rename it is the NOHZ scheduler tick handling functions are already named sched_tick_*(). Make the 'git grep sched_tick' more meaningful.

Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
by Uros Bizjak:
- This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
memory via variables declared with such attributes,
which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
than the previous inline assembly code.
- The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
- These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
- Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
better code.
- Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
to generate slightly better code.
- Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
- Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
to clean up the logic.
- Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
- Misc cleanups and fixes.
[ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer wheel
of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry. This is done
to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
This is wrong in several aspects:
1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
definition as the chance to get the prediction right is close
to zero.
2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on a
single target CPU
3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead for
dubious value especially under the consideration that the vast
majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or rearmed
before they expire.
The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on which
they get armed.
This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers and
global timers which do not care about where they expire.
As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
- If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they expire.
- If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry time
is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure
to wake up for the first pinned timer.
The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the
point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e. the
number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight has been
established by experimention, but can be adjusted if needed.
In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU to
avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there
are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have global timers
to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the migrator locks the
remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can require
to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the
CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and it
therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own
timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the
hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first.
This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which is
e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly more
complex idle path.
This has been in development for a couple of years and the final series
has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon vendors and
ran through extensive CI.
There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them to
power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first time in
a mostly idle scenario.
There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific overloaded
netperf test which is currently investigated, but the rest is either
positive or neutral performance wise and positive on the power
management side.
- Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware timers
and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes address a
few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the math and logic
wrong.
- Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to automatically
adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of having more
incomprehensible command line parameters.
- Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
- The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place.

Updates for timekeeping and PTP core:
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation. That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which requires needless exports and exposing internals. This can be completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using them for describing the correlated clock source. This update adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which can be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless exports. This is separate from the timer core changes as it was provided to the PTP folks to build further changes on top. A related improvement for the core and the correlation handling has not made it this time, but is expected to get ready for the next round. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmXuAsoTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoQSFD/0Qvyrm/tKgJwdOZrXAmcPkCRu4amrv z5GiZtMt6/GHN6JA6ZkR9tjpYnh/NrhxaGxD2k9kcUsaj1tEZyGULNYtfPXsS/j0 SVOVpuagqppPGryfqnxgnZk7M+zjGAxb58miGMEkk08Ex7ysAkujGnmfHzNBP1mz Ryeeime6aOVB8jhISS68GtAYZ5fD0fWjXfN7DN9G1faJwmF82nJLKkGFy7E1TV9Y IYaW4r/EZuRATXesnIg6YAjop3l3qK1J8hMAam7OqvOqVzGCs0QNg9usg9Pf6je4 BaELA6GIwDw8ncR5865ONVC8Qpw8/AgChNf7WJrXsP1xBL56FFDmyTPGJMcUFXya G7s/YIQSj+yXg9+LPMAQqFTqLolnwspBw/fz2ctShpbnGbs8lmnAOTAjNz5lBddd vrQSn3Gtcj9vHP5OTKXSzHIYGmbvTZp0acsTtuSQGGzJySgVD43m1/xwY5eb11gp vS57GADgqTli8mrgipVPZCQ3o87RxNMqqda9lrEG/6lfuJ1rUGZWTkvqoasJI/jq mGiWidFhDOGHaJJUQajLIHPXLll+NN2LIa4wcZqPWE4qdtBAqtutkPfVAC5O0Qot dA1eWjW02i1Hy7SsUwlpivlDO+MoMn7hqmfXxA01u/x4y8UCnB+vSjWs0LdVlG3G xWIbTzzp7HKEwg== =xKya -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-ptp-2024-03-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull clocksource updates from Thomas Gleixner: "Updates for timekeeping and PTP core.

timer/migration: Fix quick check reporting late expiry
When a CPU is the last active in the hierarchy and it tries to enter
into idle, the quick check looking up the next event towards cpuidle
heuristics may report a too late expiry, such as in the following
scenario:
[GRP1:0]
migrator = NONE
active = NONE
nextevt = T0:0, T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = NONE migrator = NONE
active = NONE active = NONE
nextevt = T0, T1 nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 1 2 3
idle idle idle idle
0) The whole system is idle, and CPU 0 was the last migrator. CPU 0 has
a timer (T0), CPU 1 has a timer (T1) and CPU 2 has a timer (T2). The
expire order is T0 < T1 < T2.
[GRP1:0]
migrator = GRP0:0
active = GRP0:0
nextevt = T0:0(i), T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = CPU0 migrator = NONE
active = CPU0 active = NONE
nextevt = T0(i), T1 nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 1 2 3
active idle idle idle
1) CPU 0 becomes active. The (i) means a now ignored timer.
[GRP1:0]
migrator = GRP0:0
active = GRP0:0
nextevt = T0:1
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = CPU0 migrator = NONE
active = CPU0 active = NONE
nextevt = T1 nextevt = T2
/ \ / \
0 1 2 3
active idle idle idle
2) CPU 0 handles remote. No timer actually expired but ignored timers
have been cleaned out and their sibling's timers haven't been
propagated. As a result the top level's next event is T2 and not T1.
3) CPU 0 tries to enter idle without any global timer enqueued and calls
tmigr_quick_check(). The expiry of T2 is returned instead of the
expiry of T1.
When the quick check returns an expiry that is too late, the cpuidle
governor may pick up a C-state that is too deep. This may be result into
undesired CPU wake up latency if the next timer is actually close enough.
Fix this with assuming that expiries aren't sorted top-down while
performing the quick check. Pick up instead the earliest encountered one
while walking up the hierarchy.

sched/idle: Conditionally handle tick broadcast in default_idle_call()
The x86 architecture has an idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected by erratum 400. On the affected CPUs the local APIC timer stops in the C1E halt state. It therefore requires tick broadcasting. The invocation of tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() from this function violates the RCU constraints because it can end up in lockdep or tracing, which rightfully triggers a warning. tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() must be invoked before ct_cpuidle_enter() and after ct_cpuidle_exit() in default_idle_call(). Add a static branch conditional invocation of tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() into this function to allow X86 to replace the AMD specific idle code. It's guarded by a config switch which will be selected by x86. Otherwise it's a NOOP.

tick/sched: Fix build failure for CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n
In configurations with CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT but no CONFIG_NO_HZ or
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS, tick_sched_timer_dying() is stubbed out,
but still defined as a global function as well:
kernel/time/tick-sched.c:1599:6: error: redefinition of 'tick_sched_timer_dying'
1599 | void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu)
| ^
kernel/time/tick-sched.h:111:20: note: previous definition is here
111 | static inline void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu) { }
| ^
This configuration only appears with ARM CONFIG_ARCH_BCM_MOBILE,
which should not actually select CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT.
Adjust the #ifdef for the stub to match the condition for building the
tick-sched.c file for consistency with the definition and to avoid
the build regression.

timers: Assert no next dyntick timer look-up while CPU is offline
The next timer (re-)evaluation, with the purpose of entering/updating the dyntick mode, can happen from 3 sites and none of them are relevant while the CPU is offline: 1) The idle loop: a) From the quick check helping the cpuidle governor to heuristically predict the best C-state. b) While stopping the tick. But if the CPU is offline, the tick has been cancelled and there is consequently no need to further stop the tick. 2) Remote expiry: when a CPU remotely expires global timers on behalf of another CPU, the latter target's next timer is re-evaluated afterwards. However remote expîry doesn't happen on offline CPUs. 3) IRQ exit: on nohz_full mode, the tick is (re-)evaluated on IRQ exit. But full dynticks is disabled on offline CPUs. Therefore it is safe to assume that no next dyntick timer lookup can be performed on offline CPUs. Assert this expectation to report any surprise.

tick: Assume timekeeping is correctly handed over upon last offline idle call
The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU on stop machine, then the oneshot tick is stopped right after. Therefore it's guaranteed that the current CPU isn't the timekeeper upon its last call to idle. Besides, calling tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() while the dying CPU goes into idle suggests that the tick is going to be stopped while it is actually stopped already from the appropriate CPU hotplug state. Remove the confusing call and the obsolete case handling and convert it to a sanity check that verifies the above assumption.

tick: Shut down low-res tick from dying CPU
The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU within stop machine. This works well if CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n or the tick is in high-res mode. However in low-res dynticks mode, the tick isn't cancelled until the clockevent is shut down, which can happen later. The tick may therefore fire again once IRQs are re-enabled on stop machine and until IRQs are disabled for good upon the last call to idle. That's so many opportunities for a timekeeper to go idle and the outgoing CPU to take over that duty. This is why tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() is called one last time on idle if the CPU is seen offline: so that the timekeeping duty is handed over again in case the CPU has re-taken the duty. This means there are two timekeeping handovers on CPU down hotplug with different undocumented constraints and purposes: 1) A handover on stop machine for !dynticks || highres. All online CPUs are guaranteed to be non-idle and the timekeeping duty can be safely handed-over. The hrtimer tick is cancelled so it is guaranteed that in dynticks mode the outgoing CPU won't take again the duty. 2) A handover on last idle call for dynticks && lowres. Setting the duty to TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE makes sure that a CPU will take over the timekeeping. Prepare for consolidating the handover to a single place (the first one) with shutting down the low-res tick as well from tick_cancel_sched_timer() as well. This will simplify the handover and unify the tick cancellation between high-res and low-res.

tick: Split nohz and highres features from nohz_mode
The nohz mode field tells about low resolution nohz mode or high resolution nohz mode but it doesn't tell about high resolution non-nohz mode. In order to retrieve the latter state, tick_cancel_sched_timer() must fiddle with struct hrtimer's internals to guess if the tick has been initialized in high resolution. Move instead the nohz mode field information into the tick flags and provide two new bits: one to know if the tick is in nohz mode and another one to know if the tick is in high resolution. The combination of those two flags provides all the needed informations to determine which of the three tick modes is running.

tick: Move individual bit features to debuggable mask accesses
The individual bitfields of struct tick_sched must be modified from IRQs disabled places, otherwise local modifications can race due to them sharing the same memory storage. The recent move of the "got_idle_tick" bitfield to its own storage shows that the use of these bitfields, as pretty as they look, can be as much error prone. In order to avoid future issues of the like and make sure that those bitfields are safely accessed, move those flags to an explicit mask along with a mutator function performing the basic IRQs disabled sanity check.
