drivers/rtc/interface.c: fix infinite loop in initializing the alarm

In __rtc_read_alarm(), if the alarm time retrieved by
rtc_read_alarm_internal() from the device contains invalid values (e.g.
month=2,mday=31) and the year not set (=-1), the initialization will
loop infinitely because the year-fixing loop expects the time being
invalid due to leap year.

Fix reduces the loop to the leap years and adds final validity check.

rtc: Keep system awake until all expired RTC timers are handled

Current implementation of RTC interface allows for system suspend to
occur in the following cases:
(a) if a timer is set in the past and rtc_timer_do_work() is scheduled
to handle it, and
(b) if rtc_timer_do_work() is called to handle expired timers whose
handlers implement a preemption point.

A pending suspend request may be honoured in the above cases causing
timer handling to be delayed until after the next resume. This is
undesirable since timer handlers may have time-critical code to execute.

This patch makes sure that the system stays awake until all expired
timers are handled.

Note that all calls to pm_stay_awake() are eventually paired with
the single pm_relax() call in rtc_timer_do_work(), which is launched
using schedule_work().

RTC: Avoid races between RTC alarm wakeup and suspend.

If an RTC alarm fires just as suspend is happening, it is possible for
suspend to complete and the alarm to be missed.

To avoid the race, we must register the event with the PM core.

As the event is made visible to userspace through a thread which is
only scheduled by the interrupt, we need a pm_stay_awake/pm_relax
pair preventing suspend from the interrupt until the thread completes
its work.

This makes the pm_wakeup_event() call in cmos_interrupt unnecessary as
it provides suspend protection for all RTCs that use rtc_update_irq.

rtc: Provide flag for rtc devices that don't support UIE

Richard Weinberger noticed that on some RTC hardware that
doesn't support UIE mode, due to coarse granular alarms
(like 1minute resolution), the current virtualized RTC
support doesn't properly error out when UIE is enabled.

Instead the current code queues an alarm for the next second,
but it won't fire until up to a miniute later.

This patch provides a generic way to flag this sort of hardware
and fixes the issue on the mpc5121 where Richard noticed the
problem.

Currently, the RTC code does not disable the alarm in the hardware.

This means that after a sequence such as the one below (the files are in the
RTC sysfs), the box will boot up after 2 minutes even though we've
asked for the alarm to be turned off.

# echo $((`cat since_epoch`)+120) > wakealarm
# echo 0 > wakealarm
# poweroff

Fix this by disabling the alarm when there are no timers to run.

The original version of this patch was reverted. This version
disables the irq directly instead of setting a disabled timer
in the future.

rtc: Expire alarms after the time is set. (v2)

If the alarm time programming in the rtc is ever in the past, it won't fire,
and any other alarm will be queued after it so they won't fire either.

So any time that the alarm might be in the past, we need to trigger
the irq handler to ensure the old alarm is cleared and the timer queue
is fully in the future.

This is done whenever the RTC clock is set.

This is the second revision of this patch, which was earlier reverted.
This version avoids the initialization problem, which is handled by
a different patch.

rtc: Avoid setting alarm to a time in the past

In some cases at boot up, the RTC alarm may be set in the past,
but still have the enabled flag on. This was causing problems,
because we would then enqueue the alarm into the timerqueue,
but it would never fire. This would clog up the timerqueue
and keep other alarms from working.

The fix is to check the alarm against the current rtc time at
boot and avoid enqueueing the alarm if it is in the past.

Revert "rtc: Expire alarms after the time is set."

This reverts commit 93b2ec0128c431148b216b8f7337c1a52131ef03.

The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too
early, and can cause oopses at bootup

Neil Brown explains why we do it:

"If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after
that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in
the past.

When this happens the queue gets stuck. That entry-in-the-past won't
get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen
because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now".

So you'll find that e.g. "hwclock" will always tell you that
'select' timed out.

So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case."

and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with
the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this,
so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm,

rtc: handle errors correctly in rtc_irq_set_state()

The code checks the correctness of the parameters, but unconditionally
arms/disarms the hrtimer.

The result is that a random task might arm/disarm rtc timer and surprise
the real owner by either generating events or by stopping them.

rtc: Limit RTC PIE frequency

The RTC pie hrtimer is self rearming. We really need to limit the
frequency to something sensible. Thus limit it to the 8192Hz max
value from the rtc man documentation

rtc: Fix hrtimer deadlock

rtc: Fix hrtimer deadlock

Ben reported a lockup related to rtc. The lockup happens due to:

CPU0 CPU1

rtc_irq_set_state() __run_hrtimer()
spin_lock_irqsave(&rtc->irq_task_lock) rtc_handle_legacy_irq();
spin_lock(&rtc->irq_task_lock);
hrtimer_cancel()
while (callback_running);

So the running callback never finishes as it's blocked on
rtc->irq_task_lock.

Use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() instead and drop rtc->irq_task_lock while
waiting for the callback. Fix this for both rtc_irq_set_state() and
rtc_irq_set_freq().
