It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires = KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which was KTIME_MAX): KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run, and the reprogramming of the timer after that.

| * timekeeping: utilize the suspend-nonstop clocksource to count suspended timeFeng Tang2013-03-151-7/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some new processors whose TSC clocksource won't stop during suspend. Currently, after system resumes, kernel will use persistent clock or RTC to compensate the sleep time, but with these nonstop clocksources, we could skip the special compensation from external sources, and just use current clocksource for time recounting. This can solve some time drift bugs caused by some not-so-accurate or error-prone RTC devices. The current way to count suspended time is first try to use the persistent clock, and then try the RTC if persistent clock can't be used. This patch will change the trying order to: suspend-nonstop clocksource -> persistent clock -> RTC When counting the sleep time with nonstop clocksource, use an accurate way suggested by Jason Gunthorpe to cover very large delta cycles.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To use the tracing snapshot feature, writing a '1' into the snapshot file causes the snapshot buffer to be allocated if it has not already been allocated and dose a 'swap' with the main buffer, so that the snapshot now contains what was in the main buffer, and the main buffer now writes to what was the snapshot buffer. To free the snapshot buffer, a '0' is written into the snapshot file. To clear the snapshot buffer, any number but a '0' or '1' is written into the snapshot file. But if the file is not allocated it returns -EINVAL error code. This is rather pointless. It is better just to do nothing and return success.

So it's not actually harmful, just more evidence for the theory, that hardware designers have access to very special drug supplies. Now there is no point in going back to deep idle just to wake up again right away via an IPI. Provide a check which allows the idle code to avoid the deep idle transition.

This leads to the following interesting problem: CPU0 CPU1 wakeup from idle wakeup from idle leave broadcast mode leave broadcast mode restart per cpu timer restart per cpu timer go back to idle handle broadcast (empty mask) enter broadcast mode programm broadcast device enter broadcast mode programm broadcast device So what happens is that due to the forced reprogramming of the cpu local timer, we need to set a event in the future. Now if we manage to go back to idle before the timer fires, we switch off the timer and arm the broadcast device with an already expired time (covered by forced mode). So in the worst case we repeat the above ping pong forever. Unfortunately we have no information about what caused the wakeup, but we can check current time against the expiry time of the local cpu. If the local event is already in the past, we know that the broadcast timer is about to fire and send an IPI. So we mark ourself as an IPI target even if we left broadcast mode and avoid the reprogramming of the local cpu timer. This still leaves the possibility that a CPU which is not handling the broadcast interrupt is going to reach idle again before the IPI arrives. This can't be solved in the core code and will be handled in follow up patches.

* | | tick: Avoid programming the local cpu timer if broadcast pendingThomas Gleixner2013-03-131-2/+26

Now when we return from deep idle we reenable the local cpu timer unconditionally before handling the IPI. But that's a pointless exercise: the timer is already expired and the IPI is on the way. And it's an expensive exercise as we use the forced reprogramming mode so that we do not lose a timer event. This forced reprogramming will loop at least once in the retry. To avoid this reprogramming, we mark the cpu in a pending bit mask before we send the IPI. Now when the IPI target cpu wakes up, it will see the pending bit set and skip the reprogramming. The reprogramming of the cpu local timer will happen in the IPI handler which runs the cpu local timer interrupt function.

This workaround was necessary because some archs may call irq_exit() with irqs enabled and there is still some code in the end of this function that is not covered by the HARDIRQ_OFFSET but want to stay non-preemptible. Now that irq are always disabled in irq_exit(), the whole code is guaranteed not to be preempted. We can thus remove this hack.

This can happen on architectures which do not define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED. __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED should go away and we want to make it mandatory to call irq_exit() with interrupts disabled. As a temporary protection disable interrupts for those architectures which do not define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED and add a WARN_ONCE when an architecture which defines __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED calls irq_exit() with interrupts enabled.

It makes tick_nohz_irq_exit() unsafe. For example two interrupts can race in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(): the inner most one computes the expiring time on top of the timer list, then it's interrupted right before reprogramming the clock. The new interrupt enqueues a new timer list timer, it reprogram the clock to take it into account and it exits. The CPUs resumes the inner most interrupt and performs the clock reprogramming without considering the new timer list timer. This regression has been introduced by: 280f06774afedf849f0b34248ed6aff57d0f6908 ("nohz: Separate out irq exit and idle loop dyntick logic") Let's fix it right now with the appropriate protections. A saner long term solution will be to remove __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED and mandate that irq_exit() is called with interrupts disabled.

CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online hotplug_notifier(ONLINE) stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; ... stop_machine() The conversion to smpboot threads moved the enablement to the wakeup path of the parked thread. The majority of users seem to have the following working order: CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online unpark_threads() wakeup(stopper[CPU1]) .... stopper thread runs stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; stop_machine() But Konrad and Sander have observed: CPU0 CPU1 cpu_up cpu online unpark_threads() wakeup(stopper[CPU1]) .... stop_machine() stopper thread runs stopper(CPU1)->enabled = true; Now the stop machinery kicks CPU0 into the stop loop, where it gets stuck forever because the queue code saw stopper(CPU1)->enabled == false, so CPU0 waits for CPU1 to enter stomp_machine, but the CPU1 stopper work got discarded due to enabled == false. Add a pre_unpark function to the smpboot thread descriptor and call it before waking the thread. This fixes the problem at hand, but the stop_machine code should be more robust. The stopper->enabled flag smells fishy at best. Thanks to Konrad for going through a loop of debug patches and providing the information to decode this issue.

Unfortunately, the broadcast device could wake up any CPU, including an idle one which is not concerned by the wake up at all. So in the worst case an idle CPU will wake up to send an IPI to the CPU whose timer expired. Provide an opt-in feature CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ which tells the core that is should set the interrupt affinity of the broadcast interrupt to the cpu which has the earliest expiry time. This avoids unnecessary spurious wakeups and IPIs.
