sched,perf: Fix periodic timers

In the below two commits (see Fixes) we have periodic timers that can
stop themselves when they're no longer required, but need to be
(re)-started when their idle condition changes.

Further complications is that we want the timer handler to always do
the forward such that it will always correctly deal with the overruns,
and we do not want to race such that the handler has already decided
to stop, but the (external) restart sees the timer still active and we
end up with a 'lost' timer.

The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does the forward, at which point the forward from the
callback will WARN about forwarding an enqueued timer.

Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.

Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that
is undesired.

The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before. I would love a nicer interface
for this seemingly simple 'problem' but alas.

tick: hrtimer-broadcast: Prevent endless restarting when broadcast device is unused

The hrtimer callback in the hrtimer's tick broadcast code sometimes
incorrectly ends up scheduling events at the current tick causing the
kernel to hang servicing the same hrtimer forever. This typically

the next_event field will not be updated and the hrtimer ends up being
restarted at the current tick. To prevent this from happening, only
try to restart the hrtimer if the broadcast clock event device is in
one of the active modes and try to cancel the timer when entering the

Change it to (re)start the timer instead, (re)starting a timer will

Since we cannot enqueue remotely, wrap the thing in

to online cpus. Also serialize the entire setting so we don't get
multiple concurrent threads trying to update to different values.

Also fix a problem in perf_mux_hrtimer_restart(), checking against
hrtimer_active() can actually loose us the timer when timer->state ==

Furthermore it doesn't make any sense to test
hrtimer_callback_running() when we already tested hrtimer_active(),

entire __start_cfs_bandwidth() thing is brain melting, we don't need to
cancel a timer before starting it, *hrtimer_start*() will happily remove
the timer for you if its still enqueued.

Removing that, removes a big part of the problem, no more ugly cancel
loop to get stuck in.

So now, if I understand things right, the entire reason you have this
cfs_b->lock guarded ->timer_active nonsense is to make sure we don't
accidentally lose the timer.

It appears to me that it should be possible to guarantee that same by
unconditionally (re)starting the timer when !queued. Because regardless
what hrtimer::function will return, if we beat it to (re)enqueue the
timer, it doesn't matter.

Now, because hrtimers don't come with any serialization guarantees we
must ensure both handler and (re)start loop serialize their access to
the hrtimer to avoid both trying to forward the timer at the same
time.

Update the rt bandwidth timer to match.

9 years agohrtimer: Avoid locking in hrtimer_cancel() if timer not active

hrtimer: Avoid locking in hrtimer_cancel() if timer not active

We can do a lockless check for hrtimer_active before actually taking
the lock in hrtimer[_try_to]_cancel. This is useful for hotpath users
like nanosleep as they avoid the lock dance when the timer has
expired.

This is safe because active is true when the timer is enqueued or the
callback is running. Taking the hrtimer base lock does not protect
against concurrent hrtimer_start calls, the callsite has to do the
proper serialization itself.

timers in the high resolution timer mode. We discussed whether we

everyone.

A simpler solution is to enforce a timer interrupt instead of raising

so and remove all the softirq leftovers.

timerqueue: Let timerqueue_add/del return information

one to expire and whether the removed timer was the last one in the
tree. The add/del routines have that information already. So we can

was introduced with the introduction of the BOOTTIME and TAI clock

We want to use it now, but in __remove_hrtimer() the update happens
after the calling hrtimer_force_reprogram() which has to evaluate all
clock bases for the next expiring timer. So in case the last timer of
a clock base got removed we still see the active bit and therefor
evaluate the clock base for no value. There are further optimizations
possible when active_bases is updated in the right place.

Move the update before the call to hrtimer_force_reprogram()

smp: don't use 16-bit words for atomic accesses

Yes, it should work, but it's a bad idea.  Not only did ARM64 not have
the 16-bit access code (there's a separate patch to add it), it's just
not a good atomic type.  Some architectures fundamentally don't do
atomic accesses in them (alpha), and it's not like it saves any space
here anyway because of structure packing issues.

We normally should aim for flags to be "unsigned int" or "unsigned
long".  And if space is at a premium, use a single byte (although that
causes problems on alpha again).  There might be very special cases
where a 16-byte entity is really wanted, but this is not one of them.

the process of moving the lock handling around, one of the error cases
ended up not unlocking the call data at all.

This went unnoticed on x86, because this is a "caller is buggy" case,
where the caller is trying to call a non-existent CPU.  But apparently
ARM does that (at least under qemu-arm).  Bindly doing cross-cpu calls
to random CPU's that aren't even online seems a bit fishy, but the error

Simply add the missing "csd_unlock()" to the error path.

====================
Generic IOMMU pooled allocator

Investigation of network performance on Sparc shows a high
degree of locking contention in the IOMMU allocator, and it
was noticed that the PowerPC code has a better locking model.

This patch series tries to extract the generic parts of the
PowerPC code so that it can be shared across multiple PCI
devices and architectures.

v10: resend patchv9 without RFC tag, and a new mail Message-Id,
(previous non-RFC attempt did not show up on the patchwork queue?)

Full revision history below:
v2 changes:
  - incorporate David Miller editorial comments: sparc specific
    fields moved from iommu-common into sparc's iommu_64.h
  - make the npools value an input parameter, for the case when
    the iommu map size is not very large
  - cookie_to_index mapping, and optimizations for span-boundary
    check, for use case such as LDC.

v3: eliminate iommu_sparc, rearrange the ->demap indirection to
    be invoked under the pool lock.

v4: David Miller review changes:
  - s/IOMMU_ERROR_CODE/DMA_ERROR_CODE
  - page_table_map_base and page_table_shift are unsigned long, not u32.

v5: removed ->cookie_to_index and ->demap indirection from the
    iommu_tbl_ops The caller needs to call these functions as needed,
    before invoking the generic arena allocator functions.
    Added the "skip_span_boundary" argument to iommu_tbl_pool_init() for
    those callers like LDC which do no care about span boundary checks.

v6: removed iommu_tbl_ops, and instead pass the ->flush_all as
    an indirection to iommu_tbl_pool_init(); only invoke ->flush_all
    when there is no large_pool, based on the assumption that large-pool
    usage is infrequently encountered

v7: moved pool_hash initialization to lib/iommu-common.c and cleaned up
    code duplication from sun4v/sun4u/ldc.

v8: Addresses BenH comments with one exception: I've left the
    IOMMU_POOL_HASH as is, so that powerpc can tailor it to their
    convenience.  Discard trylock for simple spin_lock to acquire pool

v9: Addresses latest BenH comments: need_flush checks, add support
    for dma mask and align_order.

v10: resend without RFC tag, and new mail Message-Id.

This is not efficient. A more scalable design is to follow the ppc
model, where the iommu_map_table has multiple pools, each stretching
over a segment of the map, and with a separate lock for each pool.
