* hrtimer: move timer stats helper functions to hrtimer.cHeiko Carstens2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | There is no reason to make timer_stats_hrtimer_set_start_info and friends visible to the rest of the kernel. So move all of them to hrtimer.c. Also make timer_stats_hrtimer_set_start_info a static inline function so it gets inlined and we avoid another function call. Based on a patch by Thomas Gleixner.

* hrtimer: Tune hrtimer_interrupt hang logicThomas Gleixner2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hrtimer_interrupt hang logic adjusts min_delta_ns based on the execution time of the hrtimer callbacks. This is error-prone for virtual machines, where a guest vcpu can be scheduled out during the execution of the callbacks (and the callbacks themselves can do operations that translate to blocking operations in the hypervisor), which in can lead to large min_delta_ns rendering the system unusable. Replace the current heuristics with something more reliable. Allow the interrupt code to try 3 times to catch up with the lost time. If that fails use the total time spent in the interrupt handler to defer the next timer interrupt so the system can catch up with other things which got delayed. Limit that deferment to 100ms. The retry events and the maximum time spent in the interrupt handler are recorded and exposed via /proc/timer_list Inspired by a patch from Marcelo.

* hrtimer: Fix /proc/timer_list regressionFeng Tang2009-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 507e1231 (timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function calls) introduced a regression in /proc/timer_list. /proc/timer_list shows now #0: <c27d46b0>, tick_sched_timer, S:01, <(null)>, /-1 instead of #0: <c27d46b0>, tick_sched_timer, S:01, hrtimer_start, swapper/0 Revert the hrtimer quick check for now. The optimization needs more thought, but this is neither 2.6.32-rc7 nor stable material.

| * timer stats: fix quick check optimizationHeiko Carstens2009-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | git commit 507e1231 "timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function calls" added one wrong check so that one unnecessary function call isn't elimated. time_stats_account_hrtimer() checks if timer->start_pid isn't initialized in order to find out if timer_stats_update_stats() should be called. However start_pid is initialized with -1 instead of 0, so that the function call always happens. Check timer->start_site like in timer_stats_account_timer() to fix this.

* timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function callsHeiko Carstens2009-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kernel is configured with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS but timer stats are runtime disabled we still get calls to __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info which initializes some fields in the corresponding struct timer_list. So add some quick checks in the the timer stats setup functions to avoid function calls to __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info when timer stats are disabled. In an artificial workload that does nothing but playing ping pong with a single tcp packet via loopback this decreases cpu consumption by 1 - 1.5%.

* timers: Framework for identifying pinned timersArun R Bharadwaj2009-05-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-04-16 12:11:36]: This patch creates a new framework for identifying cpu-pinned timers and hrtimers. This framework is needed because pinned timers are expected to fire on the same CPU on which they are queued. So it is essential to identify these and not migrate them, in case there are any. For regular timers, the currently existing add_timer_on() can be used queue pinned timers and subsequently mod_timer_pinned() can be used to modify the 'expires' field. For hrtimers, new modes HRTIMER_ABS_PINNED and HRTIMER_REL_PINNED are added to queue cpu-pinned hrtimer.

* hrtimer: fix rq->lock inversion (again)Peter Zijlstra2009-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears I inadvertly introduced rq->lock recursion to the hrtimer_start() path when I delegated running already expired timers to softirq context. This patch fixes it by introducing a __hrtimer_start_range_ns() method that will not use raise_softirq_irqoff() but __raise_softirq_irqoff() which avoids the wakeup. It then also changes schedule() to check for pending softirqs and do the wakeup then, I'm not quite sure I like this last bit, nor am I convinced its really needed.

* hrtimer: removing all ur callback modesPeter Zijlstra2008-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: cleanup, move all hrtimer processing into hardirq context This is an attempt at removing some of the hrtimer complexity by reducing the number of callback modes to 1. This means that all hrtimer callback functions will be ran from HARD-irq context. I went through all the 30 odd hrtimer callback functions in the kernel and saw only one that I'm not quite sure of, which is the one in net/can/bcm.c - hence I'm CC-ing the folks responsible for that code. Furthermore, the hrtimer core now calls callbacks directly with IRQs disabled in case you try to enqueue an expired timer. If this timer is a periodic timer (which should use hrtimer_forward() to advance its time) then it might be possible to end up in an inf. recursive loop due to the fact that hrtimer_forward() doesn't round up to the next timer granularity, and therefore keeps on calling the callback - obviously this needs a fix. Aside from that, this seems to compile and actually boot on my dual core test box - although I'm sure there are some bugs in, me not hitting any makes me certain :-) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

* Fix accidental implicit cast in HR-timer conversionDavid Howells2008-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the hrtimer_add_expires_ns() function. It should take a 'u64 ns' argument, but rather takes an 'unsigned long ns' argument - which might only be 32-bits. On FRV, this results in the kernel locking up because hrtimer_forward() passes the result of a 64-bit multiplication to this function, for which the compiler discards the top 32-bits - something that didn't happen when ktime_add_ns() was called directly.

* hrtimer: fix *rmtp handling in hrtimer_nanosleep()Oleg Nesterov2008-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan. hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack frame. Introduced by commit 04c227140fed77587432667a574b14736a06dd7f hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp. Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem even if nanosleep() returns 0. NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other bugs. Fixed by the next patch.

* timerfd: new timerfd APIDavide Libenzi2008-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface).

| | | | | | | | | | | | I think that advancing the timer against the timer's current "now" can be a pretty common usage, so, w/out exposing hrtimer's internals, we add a new hrtimer_forward_now() function.

* hrtimer: fixup the HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ fallbackPeter Zijlstra2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | Currently all highres=off timers are run from softirq context, but HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_NO_SOFTIRQ timers expect to run from irq context. Fix this up by splitting it similar to the highres=on case. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* sched: high-res preemption tickPeter Zijlstra2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick. The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair' by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on. The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency. Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the sched_latency period is important.
