e27c49291a x86: Convert x86_platform_ops to timespec64
The x86 platform operations are fairly isolated, so it's easy to change
them from using timespec to timespec64. It has been checked that all the
users and callers are safe, and there is only one critical function that is
broken beyond 2106:

  pvclock_read_wallclock() uses a 32-bit number of seconds since the epoch
  to communicate the boot time between host and guest in a virtual
  environment. This will work until 2106, but fixing this is outside the
  scope of this change, Add a comment at least.

9f08890ab9 x86/pvclock: add setter for pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va
Right now there is only a pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va() which is defined
on kvmclock since:

commit dac16fba6f
("x86/vdso: Get pvclock data from the vvar VMA instead of the fixmap")

The only user of this interface so far is kvm. This commit adds a
setter function for the pvti page and moves pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va
to pvclock, which is a more generic place to have it; and would
allow other PV clocksources to use it, such as Xen.

While moving pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va into pvclock, rename also this
function to pvclock_get_pvti_cpu0_va (including its call sites)
to be symmetric with the setter (pvclock_set_pvti_cpu0_va).

108b249c45 KVM: x86: introduce get_kvmclock_ns
Introduce a function that reads the exact nanoseconds value that is
provided to the guest in kvmclock.  This crystallizes the notion of
kvmclock as a thin veneer over a stable TSC, that the guest will
(hopefully) convert with NTP.  In other words, kvmclock is *not* a
paravirtualized host-to-guest NTP.

Drop the get_kernel_ns() function, that was used both to get the base
value of the master clock and to get the current value of kvmclock.
The former use is replaced by ktime_get_boot_ns(), the latter is
the purpose of get_kernel_ns().

This also allows KVM to provide a Hyper-V time reference counter that
is synchronized with the time that is computed from the TSC page.

The version field in struct pvclock_vcpu_time_info basically implements
a seqcount.  Wrap it with the usual read_begin and read_retry functions,
and use these APIs instead of peppering the code with smp_rmb()s.
While at it, change it to the more pedantically correct virt_rmb().

749d088b8e pvclock: Add CPU barriers to get correct version value
Protocol for the "version" fields is: hypervisor raises it (making it
uneven) before it starts updating the fields and raises it again (making
it even) when it is done.  Thus the guest can make sure the time values
it got are consistent by checking the version before and after reading
them.

Add CPU barries after getting version value just like what function
vread_pvclock does, because all of callees in this function is inline.

73459e2a1a x86: pvclock: Really remove the sched notifier for cross-cpu migrations
This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca
and 80f7fdb1c7.

The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support
the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it
with synchronized TSC.  Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed
due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare
that it's mostly theoretical.

As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the
additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task
migration notifier.

Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at
all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

e04c5d76b0 remove sched notifier for cross-cpu migrations
Linux as a guest on KVM hypervisor, the only user of the pvclock
vsyscall interface, does not require notification on task migration
because:

1. cpu ID number maps 1:1 to per-CPU pvclock time info.
2. per-CPU pvclock time info is updated if the
   underlying CPU changes.
3. that version is increased whenever underlying CPU
   changes.

Which is sufficient to guarantee nanoseconds counter
is calculated properly.

489fb490db x86, paravirt: Add a global synchronization point for pvclock
In recent stress tests, it was found that pvclock-based systems
could seriously warp in smp systems. Using ingo's time-warp-test.c,
I could trigger a scenario as bad as 1.5mi warps a minute in some systems.
(to be fair, it wasn't that bad in most of them). Investigating further, I
found out that such warps were caused by the very offset-based calculation
pvclock is based on.

This happens even on some machines that report constant_tsc in its tsc flags,
specially on multi-socket ones.

Two reads of the same kernel timestamp at approx the same time, will likely
have tsc timestamped in different occasions too. This means the delta we
calculate is unpredictable at best, and can probably be smaller in a cpu
that is legitimately reading clock in a forward ocasion.

Some adjustments on the host could make this window less likely to happen,
but still, it pretty much poses as an intrinsic problem of the mechanism.

A while ago, I though about using a shared variable anyway, to hold clock
last state, but gave up due to the high contention locking was likely
to introduce, possibly rendering the thing useless on big machines. I argue,
however, that locking is not necessary.

We do a read-and-return sequence in pvclock, and between read and return,
the global value can have changed. However, it can only have changed
by means of an addition of a positive value. So if we detected that our
clock timestamp is less than the current global, we know that we need to
return a higher one, even though it is not exactly the one we compared to.

OTOH, if we detect we're greater than the current time source, we atomically
replace the value with our new readings. This do causes contention on big
boxes (but big here means *BIG*), but it seems like a good trade off, since
it provide us with a time source guaranteed to be stable wrt time warps.

After this patch is applied, I don't see a single warp in time during 5 days
of execution, in any of the machines I saw them before.

This patch removes one padding byte and transform it into a flags
field. New versions of guests using pvclock will query these flags
upon each read.

Flags, however, will only be interpreted when the guest decides to.
It uses the pvclock_valid_flags function to signal that a specific
set of flags should be taken into consideration. Which flags are valid
are usually devised via HV negotiation.

7af192c954 x86: Add structs and functions for paravirt clocksource
This patch adds structs for the paravirt clocksource ABI
used by both xen and kvm (pvclock-abi.h).

It also adds some helper functions to read system time and
wall clock time from a paravirtual clocksource (pvclock.[ch]).
They are based on the xen code.  They are enabled using
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK.

Subsequent patches of this series will put the code in use.
