15 years agohrtimer: Eliminate needless reprogramming of clock events device

hrtimer: Eliminate needless reprogramming of clock events device

On NOHZ systems the following timers,

-  tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick (tick_sched_timer)
-  hrtimer_start (tick_sched_timer)

are reprogramming the clock events device far more often than needed.
No specific test case was required to observe this effect. This
occurres because there was no check to see if the currently removed or
restarted hrtimer was:

1) the one which previously armed the clock events device.
2) going to be replaced by another timer which has the same expiry time.

Avoid the reprogramming in hrtimer_force_reprogram when the new expiry
value which is evaluated from the clock bases is equal to
cpu_base->expires_next. This results in faster application startup
time by ~4%.

To register a clocksource the clocksource_mutex is acquired and if

native_cpu_up checks the tsc of the new cpu and if the tsc is no good
clocksource_change_rating is called. Which needs the clocksource_mutex
and the deadlock is complete.

The solution is to replace the TSC via the clocksource watchdog

time: Introduce CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE

After talking with some application writers who want very fast, but not
fine-grained timestamps, I decided to try to implement new clock_ids
to clock_gettime(): CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE
which returns the time at the last tick. This is very fast as we don't
have to access any hardware (which can be very painful if you're using
something like the acpi_pm clocksource), and we can even use the vdso
clock_gettime() method to avoid the syscall. The only trade off is you
only get low-res tick grained time resolution.

This isn't a new idea, I know Ingo has a patch in the -rt tree that made
the vsyscall gettimeofday() return coarse grained time when the
vsyscall64 sysctrl was set to 2. However this affects all applications
on a system.

With this method, applications can choose the proper speed/granularity
trade-off for themselves.

x86: Do not unregister PIT clocksource on PIT oneshot setup/shutdown

This basically reverts commit 1a0c009ac (x86: unregister PIT
clocksource when PIT is disabled) because the problem which was tried
to address with that patch has been solved by commit 3f68535ada
(clocksource: sanity check sysfs clocksource changes).

The problem addressed by the original patch is that PIT could be
selected as clocksource after the system switched the PIT off or set
the PIT into one shot mode which would result in complete timekeeping
wreckage.

Now with the sysfs sanity check in place PIT cannot be selected again
when the system is in oneshot mode. The system will not switch to one
shot mode as long as PIT is installed because PIT is not suitable for
one shot.

The shutdown case which happens when the lapic timer is installed is
covered by the fact that init_pit_clocksource() is called after the
lapic timer take over and then does not install the PIT clocksource
at all.

We should have done the sanity checks back then, but ...

This also solves the locking problem which was reported vs. the
clocksource rework.

change_clocksource resets the cycle_last value to zero then sets it to
a value read from the clocksource. The reset to zero is required only
for the TSC clocksource to make the read_tsc function work after a
resume. The reason is that the TSC read function uses cycle_last to
detect backwards going TSCs. In the resume case cycle_last contains
the TSC value from the last update before the suspend. On resume the
TSC starts counting from 0 again and would trip over the cycle_last
comparison.

This is subtle and surprising. Move the reset to a resume function in

The problem is that perf_counter_fork() reports the actual

Which both makes more sense and doesn't confuse perf report

a system failure between updating the metadata on two difference
devices.

However there are currently times when we update the event count by
2.  This was done to keep the event count even when the array is clean

This is bad for the above reason.  So change it to never increase by
two.  This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and
'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, but that is only a
small cost.  The spares will get a few more updates but that will
still be spared (;-) most updates and can still go to sleep.

Prior to this patch there was a small chance that after a crash an

added in an explicit invocation of debugfs_remove for bt->dir, in
blk_remove_buf_file_callback we are also getting the directory removed. On
occasion I am seeing memory corruption that I have bisected down to
this commit. [The testing involves a (long) series of I/O benchmarks
with blktrace invoked around the actual runs.] I believe that this
committed patch is correct, but the problem actually lies in the code
in blk_remove_buf_file_callback.

With this patch I am able to consistently get complete runs whereas
previously I could not get a single run to complete.

The first part of the patch simply moves the debugfs_remove below the
relay_close: the relay_close call will remove files under bt->dir, and
so we should not remove the directory until all the files we created
have been removed. (Note: This is not sufficient to fix the problem -
the file system code has ref counts on the directoy, so our invocation
does not cause the directory to actually be removed. Nonetheless, we
should not rely upon that feature.)

Add a fallback for this case: allow non-sampled counters

'perf stat' to work out of box - and allows 'perf top'

  sampling to occur - but if the APIC is disabled
  permanently by the hardware then this fallback still
  allows more systems to use perfcounters. )

ahci: add workaround for on-board 5723s on some gigabyte boards

Some gigabytes have on-board SIMG5723s connected to JMB ahcis.  These
are used to implement hardware raid.  Unfortunately some firmware
revisions on these 5723s don't bring the link down when all the
downstream ports are unoccupied while not responding to reset protocol
which makes libata think that there's device attached to the port but
is not responding and retry.  This results in painfully wrong boot
detection time for these ports when they're empty.

This patch quirks those boards such that ahci gives up after the
initial timeout.  Combined with parallel probing, this gives quick
enough probing and also is safe because SIMG5723 will respond to the
first try if any of the downstream ports is occupied.

Since GCC version 3.4.0, -mtune=mckinley has been implemented. The
