There is nothing that prevents from forwarding the base clock if it's one jiffy off. The reason for this arbitrary limit of two jiffies is historical and does not longer exist.

There is no reason to keep this guard around. The code makes sure that base->clk remains sane and won't be forwarded beyond jiffies nor set backward.

Now that the core timer infrastructure doesn't depend anymore on periodic base->clk increments, even when the CPU is not in NO_HZ mode, timer softirqs can be skipped until there are timers to expire. Some spurious softirqs can still remain since base->next_expiry doesn't keep track of canceled timers but this still reduces the number of softirqs significantly: ~15 times less for HZ=1000 and ~5 times less for HZ=100.

As for next_expiry, the base->clk catch up logic will be expanded beyond NOHZ in order to avoid triggering useless softirqs. If softirqs should only fire to expire pending timers, periodic base->clk increments must be skippable for random amounts of time. Therefore prepare to catch-up with missing updates whenever an up-to-date base clock is needed.

So far next expiry was only tracked while the CPU was in nohz_idle mode in order to cope with missing ticks that can't increment the base->clk periodically anymore. This logic is going to be expanded beyond nohz in order to spare timer softirqs so do it unconditionally.

If a level has a timer that expires before reaching the next level, there is no need to iterate further. The next level is reached when the 3 lower bits of the current level are cleared. If the next event happens before/during that, the next levels won't provide an earlier expiration.

The bucket expiry time is the effective expriy time of timers and is greater than or equal to the requested timer expiry time. This is due to the guarantee that timers never expire early and the reduced expiry granularity in the secondary wheel levels. When a timer is enqueued, trigger_dyntick_cpu() checks whether the timer is the new first timer. This check compares next_expiry with the requested timer expiry value and not with the effective expiry value of the bucket into which the timer was queued. Storing the requested timer expiry value in base->next_expiry can lead to base->clk going backwards if the requested timer expiry value is smaller than base->clk. Commit 30c66fc3 ("timer: Prevent base->clk from moving backward") worked around this by preventing the store when timer->expiry is before base->clk, but did not fix the underlying problem. Use the expiry value of the bucket into which the timer is queued to do the new first timer check. This fixes the base->clk going backward problem. The workaround of commit 30c66fc3 ("timer: Prevent base->clk from moving backward") in trigger_dyntick_cpu() is not longer necessary as the timers bucket expiry is guaranteed to be greater than or equal base->clk.

The higher bits of the timer expiration are cropped while calling calc_index() due to the implicit cast from unsigned long to unsigned int. This loss shouldn't have consequences on the current code since all the computation to calculate the index is done on the lower 32 bits. However to prepare for returning the actual bucket expiration from calc_index() in order to properly fix base->next_expiry updates, the higher bits need to be preserved.

When an expiration delta falls into the last level of the wheel, that delta has be compared against the maximum possible delay and reduced to fit in if necessary. However instead of comparing the delta against the maximum, the code compares the actual expiry against the maximum. Then instead of fixing the delta to fit in, it sets the maximum delta as the expiry value. This can result in various undesired outcomes, the worst possible one being a timer expiring 15 days ahead to fire immediately.

Frederic Weisbecker authored
When a timer is enqueued with a negative delta (ie: expiry is below base->clk), it gets added to the wheel as expiring now (base->clk). Yet the value that gets stored in base->next_expiry, while calling trigger_dyntick_cpu(), is the initial timer->expires value. The resulting state becomes: base->next_expiry < base->clk On the next timer enqueue, forward_timer_base() may accidentally rewind base->clk. As a possible outcome, timers may expire way too early, the worst case being that the highest wheel levels get spuriously processed again. To prevent from that, make sure that base->next_expiry doesn't get below base->clk.

Using a mutex for "print this warning only once" is so overdesigned as to be actively offensive to my sensitive stomach. Just use "pr_info_once()" that already does this, although in a (harmlessly) racy manner that can in theory cause the message to be printed twice if more than one CPU races on that "is this the first time" test. [ If somebody really cares about that harmless data race (which sounds very unlikely indeed), that person can trivially fix printk_once() by using a simple atomic access, preferably with an optimistic non-atomic test first before even bothering to treat the pointless "make sure it is _really_ just once" case. A mutex is most definitely never the right primitive to use for something like this. ] Yes, this is a small and meaningless detail in a code path that hardly matters. But let's keep some code quality standards here, and not accept outrageously bad code.

This resolves the hazard between the mtc0 in the change_c0_status() and the mfc0 in configure_exception_vector(). Without resolving this hazard configure_exception_vector() could read an old value and would restore this old value again. This would revert the changes change_c0_status() did. I checked this by printing out the read_c0_status() at the end of per_cpu_trap_init() and the ST0_MX is not set without this patch. The hazard is documented in the MIPS Architecture Reference Manual Vol. III: MIPS32/microMIPS32 Privileged Resource Architecture (MD00088), rev 6.03 table 8.1 which includes: Producer | Consumer | Hazard ----------|----------|---------------------------- mtc0 | mfc0 | any coprocessor 0 register I saw this hazard on an Atheros AR9344 rev 2 SoC with a MIPS 74Kc CPU. There the change_c0_status() function would activate the DSPen by setting ST0_MX in the c0_status register. This was reverted and then the system got a DSP exception when the DSP registers were saved in save_dsp() in the first process switch. The crash looks like this: [ 0.089999] Mount-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear) [ 0.097796] Mountpoint-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes, linear) [ 0.107070] Kernel panic - not syncing: Unexpected DSP exception [ 0.113470] Rebooting in 1 seconds.. We saw this problem in OpenWrt only on the MIPS 74Kc based Atheros SoCs, not on the 24Kc based SoCs. We only saw it with kernel 5.4 not with kernel 4.19, in addition we had to use GCC 8.4 or 9.X, with GCC 8.3 it did not happen. In the kernel I bisected this problem to commit 9012d011 ("compiler: allow all arches to enable CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING"), but when this was reverted it also happened after commit 172dcd93 ("MIPS: Always allocate exception vector for MIPSr2+"). Commit 0b24cae4 ("MIPS: Add missing EHB in mtc0 -> mfc0 sequence.") does similar changes to a different file. I am not sure if there are more places affected by this problem.

When switching to TWA_SIGNAL for task_work notifications, we also made any signal based condition in io_cqring_wait() return -ERESTARTSYS. This breaks applications that rely on using signals to abort someone waiting for events. Check if we have a signal pending because of queued task_work, and repeat the signal check once we've run the task_work. This provides a reliable way of telling the two apart. Additionally, only use TWA_SIGNAL if we are using an eventfd. If not, we don't have the dependency situation described in the original commit, and we can get by with just using TWA_RESUME like we previously did.

Xen PV doesn't implement ESPFIX64, so they don't work right. Disable them. Also print a warning the first time anyone tries to use a 16-bit segment on a Xen PV guest that would otherwise allow it to help people diagnose this change in behavior. This gets us closer to having all x86 selftests pass on Xen PV.

DEFINE_IDTENTRY_MCE and DEFINE_IDTENTRY_DEBUG were wired up as non-RAW on x86_32, but the code expected them to be RAW. Get rid of all the macro indirection for them on 32-bit and just use DECLARE_IDTENTRY_RAW and DEFINE_IDTENTRY_RAW directly. Also add a warning to make sure that we only hit the _kernel paths in kernel mode.

On Xen PV, #DB doesn't use IST. It still needs to be correctly routed depending on whether it came from user or kernel mode. Get rid of DECLARE/DEFINE_IDTENTRY_XEN -- it was too hard to follow the logic. Instead, route #DB and NMI through DECLARE/DEFINE_IDTENTRY_RAW on Xen, and do the right thing for #DB. Also add more warnings to the exc_debug* handlers to make this type of failure more obvious. This fixes various forms of corruption that happen when usermode triggers #DB on Xen PV.

Move the clearing of the high bits of RAX after Xen PV joins the SYSENTER path so that Xen PV doesn't skip it. Arguably this code should be deleted instead, but that would belong in the merge window.
