From 7c1e76897492d92b6a1c2d6892494d39ded9680c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Venkatesh Pallipadi Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2008 21:36:50 +0000 Subject: clockevents: prevent clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop There is a ordering related problem with clockevents code, due to which clockevents_register_device() called after tickless/highres switch will not work. The new clockevent ends up with clockevents_handle_noop as event handler, resulting in no timer activity. The problematic path seems to be * old device already has hrtimer_interrupt as the event_handler * new clockevent device registers with a higher rating * tick_check_new_device() is called * clockevents_exchange_device() gets called * old->event_handler is set to clockevents_handle_noop * tick_setup_device() is called for the new device * which sets new->event_handler using the old->event_handler which is noop. Change the ordering so that new device inherits the proper handler. This does not have any issue in normal case as most likely all the clockevent devices are setup before the highres switch. But, can potentially be affecting some corner case where HPET force detect happens after the highres switch. This was a problem with HPET in MSI mode code that we have been experimenting with.

The clockevents code needs to enforce an interrupt event on the clock event device in some cases. The enforcement code was stupid and naive, as it just added the minimum delta to the current time and tried to reprogram the device. When the minimum delta is too small, then this loops forever. Add a sanity check. Allow reprogramming to fail 3 times, then print a warning and double the minimum delta value to make sure, that this does not happen again. Use the same function for both tick-oneshot and tick-broadcast code.

Rozycki" Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2008 14:05:31 -0700 Subject: ntp: fix calculation of the next jiffie to trigger RTC sync We have a bug in the calculation of the next jiffie to trigger the RTC synchronisation. The aim here is to run sync_cmos_clock() as close as possible to the middle of a second. Which means we want this function to be called less than or equal to half a jiffie away from when now.tv_nsec equals 5e8 (500000000). If this is not the case for a given call to the function, for this purpose instead of updating the RTC we calculate the offset in nanoseconds to the next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be equal 5e8. The calculated offset is then converted to jiffies as these are the unit used by the timer. Hovewer timespec_to_jiffies() used here uses a ceil()-type rounding mode, where the resulting value is rounded up. As a result the range of now.tv_nsec when the timer will trigger is from 5e8 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC rather than the desired 5e8 - TICK_NSEC / 2 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2. As a result if for example sync_cmos_clock() happens to be called at the time when now.tv_nsec is between 5e8 + TICK_NSEC / 2 and 5e8 to 5e8 + TICK_NSEC, it will simply be rescheduled HZ jiffies later, falling in the same range of now.tv_nsec again. Similarly for cases offsetted by an integer multiple of TICK_NSEC. This change addresses the problem by subtracting TICK_NSEC / 2 from the nanosecond offset to the next point in time where now.tv_nsec will be equal 5e8, effectively shifting the following rounding in timespec_to_jiffies() so that it produces a rounded-to-nearest result.
