clocksource: Add a Kconfig option for WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW A watchdog maximum skew of 100us may still be too small for some systems or archs. It may also be too small when some kernel debug config options are enabled. So add a new Kconfig option CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW_US to allow kernel builders to have more control on the threshold for marking clocksource as unstable.

This allows us to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to access SoC specific clockevent device. - Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list - Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU preemption. Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence is repeated up to 3 times. - Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog mechanism. - Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a faster and significantly smaller version.

time: Improve performance of time64_to_tm() The current implementation of time64_to_tm() contains unnecessary loops, branches and look-up tables. The new one uses an arithmetic-based algorithm appeared in [1] and is approximately 3x faster (YMMV). The drawback is that the new code isn't intuitive and contains many 'magic numbers' (not unusual for this type of algorithm). However, [1] justifies all those numbers and, given this function's history, the code is unlikely to need much maintenance, if any at all. Add a KUnit test for it which checks every day in a 160,000 years interval centered at 1970-01-01 against the expected result.

timekeeping: default GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS to enabled Almost all machines use GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, so it feels wrong to require each one to select that symbol manually. Instead, enable it whenever CONFIG_LEGACY_TIMER_TICK is disabled as a simplification. It should be possible to select both GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and LEGACY_TIMER_TICK from an architecture now and decide at runtime between the two. For the clockevents arch-support.txt file, this means that additional architectures are marked as TODO when they have at least one machine that still uses LEGACY_TIMER_TICK, rather than being marked 'ok' when at least one machine has been converted. This means that both m68k and arm (for riscpc) revert to TODO. At this point, we could just always enable CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS rather than leaving it off when not needed. I built an m68k defconfig kernel (using gcc-10.1.0) and found that this would add around 5.5KB in kernel image size: text data bss dec hex filename 3861936 1092236 196656 5150828 4e986c obj-m68k/vmlinux-no-clockevent 3866201 1093832 196184 5156217 4ead79 obj-m68k/vmlinux-clockevent On Arm (MACH_RPC), that difference appears to be twice as large, around 11KB on top of an 6MB vmlinux.

posix-cpu-timers: Provide mechanisms to defer timer handling to task_work Running posix CPU timers in hard interrupt context has a few downsides: - For PREEMPT_RT it cannot work as the expiry code needs to take sighand lock, which is a 'sleeping spinlock' in RT. The original RT approach of offloading the posix CPU timer handling into a high priority thread was clumsy and provided no real benefit in general. - For fine grained accounting it's just wrong to run this in context of the timer interrupt because that way a process specific CPU time is accounted to the timer interrupt. - Long running timer interrupts caused by a large amount of expiring timers which can be created and armed by unpriviledged user space. There is no hard requirement to expire them in interrupt context. If the signal is targeted at the task itself then it won't be delivered before the task returns to user space anyway. If the signal is targeted at a supervisor process then it might be slightly delayed, but posix CPU timers are inaccurate anyway due to the fact that they are tied to the tick. Provide infrastructure to schedule task work which allows splitting the posix CPU timer code into a quick check in interrupt context and a thread context expiry and signal delivery function. This has to be enabled by architectures as it requires that the architecture specific KVM implementation handles pending task work before exiting to guest mode.
