hrtimer_reprogram() must have access to the hrtimer_clock_base of the new
first expiring timer to access hrtimer_clock_base.offset for adjusting the
expiry time to CLOCK_MONOTONIC. This is required to evaluate whether the
new left most timer in the hrtimer_clock_base is the first expiring timer
of all clock bases in a hrtimer_cpu_base.
The only user of hrtimer_reprogram() is hrtimer_start_range_ns(), which has
a pointer to hrtimer_clock_base() already and hands it in as a parameter. But
hrtimer_start_range_ns() will be split for the upcoming support for softirq
based hrtimers to avoid code duplication and will lose the direct access to
the clock base pointer.
Instead of handing in timer and timer->base as a parameter remove the base
parameter from hrtimer_reprogram() instead and retrieve the clock base internally.

The current decision whether a timer can be queued on a remote CPU checks
for timer->expiry <= remote_cpu_base.expires_next.
This is too restrictive because a timer with the same expiry time as an
existing timer will be enqueued on right-hand size of the existing timer
inside the rbtree, i.e. behind the first expiring timer.
So its safe to allow enqueuing timers with the same expiry time as the
first expiring timer on a remote CPU base.

hrtimer_reprogram() is conditionally invoked from hrtimer_start_range_ns()
when hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is true.
In the !hres_active case there is a special condition for the nohz_active
case:
If the newly enqueued timer expires before the first expiring timer on a
remote CPU then the remote CPU needs to be notified and woken up from a
NOHZ idle sleep to take the new first expiring timer into account.
Previous changes have already established the prerequisites to make the
remote enqueue behaviour the same whether high resolution mode is active or
not:
If the to be enqueued timer expires before the first expiring timer on a
remote CPU, then it cannot be enqueued there.
This was done for the high resolution mode because there is no way to
access the remote CPU timer hardware. The same is true for NOHZ, but was
handled differently by unconditionally enqueuing the timer and waking up
the remote CPU so it can reprogram its timer. Again there is no compelling
reason for this difference.
hrtimer_check_target(), which makes the 'can remote enqueue' decision is
already unconditional, but not yet functional because nothing updates
hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next in the !hres_active case.
To unify this the following changes are required:
1) Make the store of the new first expiry time unconditonal in
hrtimer_reprogram() and check __hrtimer_hres_active() before proceeding
to the actual hardware access. This check also lets the compiler
eliminate the rest of the function in case of CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n.
2) Invoke hrtimer_reprogram() unconditionally from
hrtimer_start_range_ns()
3) Remove the remote wakeup special case for the !high_res && nohz_active
case.
Confine the timers_nohz_active static key to timer.c which is the only user
now.

When the first hrtimer on the current CPU is removed,
hrtimer_force_reprogram() is invoked but only when
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is set.
hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next and
reprograms the clock event device. When CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and
hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active is set, a pointless hrtimer interrupt can be
prevented.
hrtimer_check_target() makes the 'can remote enqueue' decision. As soon as
hrtimer_check_target() is unconditionally available and
hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next is updated by hrtimer_reprogram(),
hrtimer_force_reprogram() needs to be available unconditionally as well to
prevent the following scenario with CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n:
- the first hrtimer on this CPU is removed and hrtimer_force_reprogram() is
not executed
- CPU goes idle (next timer is calculated and hrtimers are taken into
account)
- a hrtimer is enqueued remote on the idle CPU: hrtimer_check_target()
compares expiry value and hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next. The expiry value
is after expires_next, so the hrtimer is enqueued. This timer will fire
late, if it expires before the effective first hrtimer on this CPU and
the comparison was with an outdated expires_next value.
To prevent this scenario, make hrtimer_force_reprogram() unconditional
except the effective reprogramming part, which gets eliminated by the
compiler in the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n case.

hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer stores the pointer to the next expiring timer
in a CPU base.
This pointer cannot be dereferenced and is solely used to check whether a
hrtimer which is removed is the hrtimer which is the first to expire in the
CPU base. If this is the case, then the timer hardware needs to be
reprogrammed to avoid an extra interrupt for nothing.
Again, this is conditional functionality, but there is no compelling reason
to make this conditional. As a preparation, hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer
needs to be available unconditonally.
Aside of that the upcoming support for softirq based hrtimers requires access
to this pointer unconditionally as well, so our motivation is not entirely
simplicity based.
Make the update of hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer unconditional and remove the
#ifdef cruft. The impact on CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n && CONFIG_NOHZ=n is
marginal as it's just a store on an already dirtied cacheline.

hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next is used to cache the next event armed in the
timer hardware. The value is used to check whether an hrtimer can be
enqueued remotely. If the new hrtimer is expiring before expires_next, then
remote enqueue is not possible as the remote hrtimer hardware cannot be
accessed for reprogramming to an earlier expiry time.
The remote enqueue check is currently conditional on
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active. There is no
compelling reason to make this conditional.
Move hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next out of the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y
guarded area and remove the conditionals in hrtimer_check_target().
The check is currently a NOOP for the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n and the
!hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active case because in these cases nothing updates
hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next yet. This will be changed with later patches
which further reduce the #ifdef zoo in this code.

The pointer to the currently running timer is stored in hrtimer_cpu_base
before the base lock is dropped and the callback is invoked.
This results in two levels of indirections and the upcoming support for
softirq based hrtimer requires splitting the "running" storage into soft
and hard IRQ context expiry.
Storing both in the cpu base would require conditionals in all code paths
accessing that information.
It's possible to have a per clock base sequence count and running pointer
without changing the semantics of the related mechanisms because the timer
base pointer cannot be changed while a timer is running the callback.
Unfortunately this makes cpu_clock base larger than 32 bytes on 32-bit
kernels. Instead of having huge gaps due to alignment, remove the alignment
and let the compiler pack CPU base for 32-bit kernels. The resulting cache access
patterns are fortunately not really different from the current
behaviour. On 64-bit kernels the 64-byte alignment stays and the behaviour is
unchanged. This was determined by analyzing the resulting layout and
looking at the number of cache lines involved for the frequently used
clocks.

The POSIX specification defines that relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not
affected by clock modifications. Those timers have to use CLOCK_MONOTONIC
to ensure POSIX compliance.
The introduction of the additional HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED mode broke this
requirement for pinned timers.
There is no user space visible impact because user space timers are not
using pinned mode, but for consistency reasons this needs to be fixed.

comparing with HRTIMER_MODE_ABS.

The protection of a hrtimer which runs its callback against migration to a
different CPU has nothing to do with hard interrupt context.
The protection against migration of a hrtimer running the expiry callback
is the pointer in the cpu_base which holds a pointer to the currently

switches the timer base and makes sure it's kept on the CPU on which the
callback is running.

As Tsukada explains, the time_is_before_jiffies(acct->needcheck) check
is very wrong, we need time_is_after_jiffies() to make sys_acct() work.
Ignoring the overflows, the code should "goto out" if needcheck >
jiffies, while currently it checks "needcheck < jiffies" and thus in the
likely case check_free_space() does nothing until jiffies overflow.
In particular this means that sys_acct() is simply broken, acct_on()
sets acct->needcheck = jiffies and expects that check_free_space()
should set acct->active = 1 after the free-space check, but this won't
happen if jiffies increments in between.
This was broken by commit 32dc730860 ("get rid of timer in
kern/acct.c") in 2011, then another (correct) commit 795a2f22a8
("acct() should honour the limits from the very beginning") made the

This is a small change to fix this by making the kernel more robust in

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A rather large update after the kaisered maintainer finally found time
to handle regression reports.
- The larger part addresses a regression caused by the x86 vector
management rework.
The reservation based model does not work reliably for MSI
interrupts, if they cannot be masked (yes, yet another hw
engineering trainwreck). The reason is that the reservation mode
assigns a dummy vector when the interrupt is allocated and switches
to a real vector when the interrupt is requested.
If the MSI entry cannot be masked then the initialization might
raise an interrupt before the interrupt is requested, which ends up
as spurious interrupt and causes device malfunction and worse. The
fix is to exclude MSI interrupts which do not support masking from
reservation mode and assign a real vector right away.
- Extend the extra lockdep class setup for nested interrupts with a
class for the recently added irq_desc::request_mutex so lockdep can
differeniate and does not emit false positive warnings.
- A ratelimit guard for the bad irq printout so in case a bad irq
comes back immediately the system does not drown in dmesg spam"

The conditions in irq_exit() to invoke tick_nohz_irq_exit() which
subsequently invokes tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() are:
if ((idle_cpu(cpu) && !need_resched()) || tick_nohz_full_cpu(cpu))
If need_resched() is not set, but a timer softirq is pending then this is
an indication that the softirq code punted and delegated the execution to
softirqd. need_resched() is not true because the current interrupted task
takes precedence over softirqd.
Invoking tick_nohz_irq_exit() in this case can cause an endless loop of
timer interrupts because the timer wheel contains an expired timer, but
softirqs are not yet executed. So it returns an immediate expiry request,
which causes the timer to fire immediately again. Lather, rinse and
repeat....
Prevent that by adding a check for a pending timer soft interrupt to the
conditions in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() which avoid calling
get_next_timer_interrupt(). That keeps the tick sched timer on the tick and
prevents a repetitive programming of an already expired timer.

The timer wheel bases are not (re)initialized on CPU hotplug. That leaves
them with a potentially stale clk and next_expiry valuem, which can cause
trouble then the CPU is plugged.
Add a prepare callback which forwards the clock, sets next_expiry to far in
the future and reset the control flags to a known state.
Set base->must_forward_clk so the first timer which is queued will try to
forward the clock to current jiffies.

During boot and before base::nohz_active is set in the timer bases, deferrable
timers are enqueued into the standard timer base. This works correctly as
long as base::nohz_active is false.
Once it base::nohz_active is set and a timer which was enqueued before that
is accessed the lock selector code choses the lock of the deferred
base. This causes unlocked access to the standard base and in case the
timer is removed it does not clear the pending flag in the standard base
bitmap which causes get_next_timer_interrupt() to return bogus values.
To prevent that, the deferrable timers must be enqueued in the deferrable
base, even when base::nohz_active is not set. Those deferrable timers also
need to be expired unconditional.

The new reservation mode for interrupts assigns a dummy vector when the
interrupt is allocated and assigns a real vector when the interrupt is
requested. The reservation mode prevents vector pressure when devices with
a large amount of queues/interrupts are initialized, but only a minimal
subset of those queues/interrupts is actually used.
This mode has an issue with MSI interrupts which cannot be masked. If the
driver is not careful or the hardware emits an interrupt before the device
irq is requestd by the driver then the interrupt ends up on the dummy
vector as a spurious interrupt which can cause malfunction of the device or
in the worst case a lockup of the machine.
Change the logic for the reservation mode so that the early activation of
MSI interrupts checks whether:
- the device is a PCI/MSI device
- the reservation mode of the underlying irqdomain is activated
- PCI/MSI masking is globally enabled
- the PCI/MSI device uses either MSI-X, which supports masking, or
MSI with the maskbit supported.
If one of those conditions is false, then clear the reservation mode flag
in the irq data of the interrupt and invoke irq_domain_activate_irq() with
the reserve argument cleared. In the x86 vector code, clear the can_reserve
flag in the vector allocation data so a subsequent free_irq() won't create
the same situation again. The interrupt stays assigned to a real vector
until pci_disable_msi() is invoked and all allocations are undone.

When analyzing the fallout of the x86 vector allocation rework it turned
out that the error handling in msi_domain_alloc_irqs() is broken.
If MSI_FLAG_MUST_REACTIVATE is set for a MSI domain then it clears the
activation flag for a successfully initialized msi descriptor. If a
subsequent initialization fails then the error handling code path does not
deactivate the interrupt because the activation flag got cleared.
Move the clearing of the activation flag outside of the initialization loop
so that an eventual failure can be cleaned up correctly.

The two bigger bugs:
- Mask the ring buffer data page length. There are data flags at the
high bits of the length field. These were not cleared via the
length function, and the length could return a negative number.
(Although the number returned was unsigned, but was assigned to a

unsigned and kept it from entering the path that could have caused damage.
- Check the page usage before reusing the ring buffer reader page.
TCP increments the page ref when passing the page off to the network.
The page is passed back to the ring buffer for use on free. But
the page could still be in use by the TCP stack.
Minor bugs:

code itself.
- Reset pointers after free on error path. There were some cases in

Double free of the ring buffer happens when it fails to alloc new

The root cause is that the pointer is not set to NULL after the buffer
is freed in allocate_trace_buffers(), and the freeing of the ring
buffer is invoked again later if the pointer is not equal to Null,
as:
instance_mkdir()
|-allocate_trace_buffers()

ring_buffer_free_read_page() must be called. For faster performance, this
page can be reused by the ring buffer to avoid having to free and allocate
new pages.
The issue arises when the page is used with a splice pipe into the
networking code. The networking code may up the page counter for the page,
and keep it active while sending it is queued to go to the network. The
incrementing of the page ref does not prevent it from being reused in the
ring buffer, and this can cause the page that is being sent out to the
network to be modified before it is sent by reading new data.
Add a check to the page ref counter, and only reuse the page if it is not
being used anywhere else.

The ring_buffer_read_page() takes care of zeroing out any extra data in the
page that it returns. There's no need to zero it out again from the
consumer. It was removed from one consumer of this function, but
read_buffers_splice_read() did not remove it, and worse, it contained a
nasty bug because of it.

Two info bits were added to the "commit" part of the ring buffer data page
when returned to be consumed. This was to inform the user space readers that
events have been missed, and that the count may be stored at the end of the
page.
What wasn't handled, was the splice code that actually called a function to
return the length of the data in order to zero out the rest of the page
before sending it up to user space. These data bits were returned with the
length making the value negative, and that negative value was not checked.
It was compared to PAGE_SIZE, and only used if the size was less than
PAGE_SIZE. Luckily PAGE_SIZE is unsigned long which made the compare an
unsigned compare, meaning the negative size value did not end up causing a
large portion of memory to be randomly zeroed out.

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner:
"Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest
patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date,
but a late fixup made that moot.
- Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate
address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big
with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to
diagnose failures.
The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of
that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of
32bit wraparounds.
- Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already,
but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with
the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with
the fixmap code
- A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of
the TLB functions should be used for what.
- Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for
more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces
confusing.
- Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(),
which is only invoked on fork().
- Make vysycall more robust.
- A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check
PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the
C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out
of sync with the index enums.
- Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI.
- Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI
integration simpler and header files less convoluted.
- Documentation fixes and clarifications"
