* Fix discrepancy between VDSO based gettimeofday() and sys_gettimeofday().Tony Breeds2007-10-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms that copy sys_tz into the vdso (currently only x86_64, soon to include powerpc), it is possible for the vdso to get out of sync if a user calls (admittedly unusual) settimeofday(NULL, ptr). This patch adds a hook for architectures that set CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL to ensure when sys_tz is updated they can also updatee their copy in the vdso.

* Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().john stultz2007-07-251-16/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside of the actual time-related functions. Instead, use the helper functions that we already have available to us. This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ (because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a third of a second or so.

* Revert "sys_time() speedup"Linus Torvalds2007-07-201-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This basically reverts commit 4e44f3497d41db4c3b9051c61410dee8ae4fb49c, while waiting for it to be re-done more completely. There are cases of people mixing "time()" with higher-resolution time sources, and we need to take the nanosecond offsets into account. Ingo has a patch that does that, but it's still under some discussion. In the meantime, just revert back to the old simple situation of just doing the whole exact timesource calculations. But rather than using do_gettimeofday(), use the internal nanosecond resolution getnstimeofday(), which at least avoids one unnecessary conversion (since we really don't care about whether the fractional seconds are nanoseconds or microseconds - we'll just throw them away).

* Optimize timespec_trunc()Eric Dumazet2007-05-081-30/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first thing done by timespec_trunc() is : if (gran <= jiffies_to_usecs(1) * 1000) This should really be a test against a constant known at compile time. Alas, it isnt. jiffies_to_usec() was unilined so C compiler emits a function call and a multiply to compute : a CONSTANT. mov $0x1,%edi mov %rbx,0xffffffffffffffe8(%rbp) mov %r12,0xfffffffffffffff0(%rbp) mov %edx,%ebx mov %rsi,0xffffffffffffffc8(%rbp) mov %rsi,%r12 callq ffffffff80232010 <jiffies_to_usecs> imul $0x3e8,%eax,%eax cmp %ebx,%eax This patch reorders kernel/time.c a bit so that jiffies_to_usecs() is defined before timespec_trunc() so that compiler now generates : cmp $0x3d0900,%edx (HZ=250 on my machine) This gives a better code (timespec_trunc() becoming a leaf function), and shorter kernel size as well.

* [NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_tEric Dumazet2007-04-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain 'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct sock. This has some drawbacks : - Fixed resolution of micro second. - Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16 I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution. As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...) Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS) Note : this patch includes a bug correction in compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> CC: John find <linux.kernel@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix multiple conversion bugs in msecs_to_jiffies(). The main problem is that this condition: if (m > jiffies_to_msecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)) overflows if HZ is smaller than 1000! This change is user-visible: for HZ=250 SUS-compliant poll()-timeout value of -20 is mistakenly converted to 'immediate timeout'. (The new dyntick code also triggered this, that's how we noticed.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | settimeofday will set the time a little bit too early on systems using time interpolation since it subtracts the current interpolator offset from the time. This used to be necessary with the code in 2.6.9 and earlier but the new code resets the time interpolator after setting the time. Thus the time is set too early and gettimeofday will return a time slightly before the time specified with settimeofday if invoked immeditely after settimeofday. This removes the obsolete subtraction of the time interpolator offset and makes settimeofday set the time accurately.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.
