      ALSA: ali5451: Fix out-of-bound position reporting · 4be05b0a
      Takashi Iwai authored
      commit db685779 upstream.
      
      The pointer callbacks of ali5451 driver may return the value at the
      boundary occasionally, and it results in the kernel warning like
        snd_ali5451 0000:00:06.0: BUG: , pos = 16384, buffer size = 16384, period size = 1024
      
      It seems that folding the position offset is enough for fixing the
      warning and no ill-effect has been seen by that.

      timekeeping: Fix __ktime_get_fast_ns() regression · 78c7b55b
      John Stultz authored
      commit 58bfea95 upstream.
      
      In commit 27727df2 ("Avoid taking lock in NMI path with
      CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING"), I changed the logic to open-code
      the timekeeping_get_ns() function, but I forgot to include
      the unit conversion from cycles to nanoseconds, breaking the
      function's output, which impacts users like perf.
      
      This results in bogus perf timestamps like:
       swapper     0 [000]   253.427536:  111111111 cpu-clock:  ffffffff810a0de6 native_safe_halt+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms])

      Instead of more reasonable expected timestamps like:

      Add the proper use of timekeeping_delta_to_ns() to convert
      the cycle delta to nanoseconds as needed.
      
      Thanks to Brendan and Alexei for finding this quickly after
      the v4.8 release. Unfortunately the problematic commit has
      landed in some -stable trees so they'll need this fix as
      well.
      
      Many apologies for this mistake. I'll be looking to add a
      perf-clock sanity test to the kselftest timers tests soon.

      time: Add cycles to nanoseconds translation · 9b57d91c
      Christopher S. Hall authored
      commit 6bd58f09 upstream.
      
      The timekeeping code does not currently provide a way to translate
      externally provided clocksource cycles to system time. The cycle count
      is always provided by the result clocksource read() method internal to
      the timekeeping code. The added function timekeeping_cycles_to_ns()
      calculated a nanosecond value from a cycle count that can be added to
      tk_read_base.base value yielding the current system time. This allows
      clocksource cycle values external to the timekeeping code to provide a
      cycle count that can be transformed to system time.
