Merge tag 'timers-core-2023-04-24' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:

- Improve the VDSO build time checks to cover all dynamic relocations

VDSO does not allow dynamic relocations, but the build time check is
incomplete and fragile.

It's based on architectures specifying the relocation types to search
for and does not handle R_*_NONE relocation entries correctly.
R_*_NONE relocations are injected by some GNU ld variants if they
fail to determine the exact .rel[a]/dyn_size to cover trailing zeros.
R_*_NONE relocations must be ignored by dynamic loaders, so they
should be ignored in the build time check too.

Remove the architecture specific relocation types to check for and
validate strictly that no other relocations than R_*_NONE end up in
the VSDO .so file.

- Prefer signal delivery to the current thread for
CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID based posix-timers

Such timers prefer to deliver the signal to the main thread of a
process even if the context in which the timer expires is the current
task. This has the downside that it might wake up an idle thread.

As there is no requirement or guarantee that the signal has to be
delivered to the main thread, avoid this by preferring the current
task if it is part of the thread group which shares sighand.

This not only avoids waking idle threads, it also distributes the
signal delivery in case of multiple timers firing in the context of
different threads close to each other better.

- Align the tick period properly (again)

For a long time the tick was starting at CLOCK_MONOTONIC zero, which
allowed users space applications to either align with the tick or to
place a periodic computation so that it does not interfere with the
tick. The alignement of the tick period was more by chance than by
intention as the tick is set up before a high resolution clocksource
is installed, i.e. timekeeping is still tick based and the tick
period advances from there.

The early enablement of sched_clock() broke this alignement as the
time accumulated by sched_clock() is taken into account when
timekeeping is initialized. So the base value now(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) is
not longer a multiple of tick periods, which breaks applications
which relied on that behaviour.

Cure this by aligning the tick starting point to the next multiple of
tick periods, i.e 1000ms/CONFIG_HZ.

- A set of NOHZ fixes and enhancements:

* Cure the concurrent writer race for idle and IO sleeptime
statistics

The statitic values which are exposed via /proc/stat are updated
from the CPU local idle exit and remotely by cpufreq, but that
happens without any form of serialization. As a consequence
sleeptimes can be accounted twice or worse.

Prevent this by restricting the accumulation writeback to the CPU
local idle exit and let the remote access compute the accumulated
value.

* Protect idle/iowait sleep time with a sequence count

Reading idle/iowait sleep time, e.g. from /proc/stat, can race
with idle exit updates. As a consequence the readout may result
in random and potentially going backwards values.

Protect this by a sequence count, which fixes the idle time
statistics issue, but cannot fix the iowait time problem because
iowait time accounting races with remote wake ups decrementing
the remote runqueues nr_iowait counter. The latter is impossible
to fix, so the only way to deal with that is to document it
properly and to remove the assertion in the selftest which
triggers occasionally due to that.

* Restructure struct tick_sched for better cache layout

* Some small cleanups and a better cache layout for struct
tick_sched

- Implement the missing timer_wait_running() callback for POSIX CPU
timers

For unknown reason the introduction of the timer_wait_running()
callback missed to fixup posix CPU timers, which went unnoticed for
almost four years.

While initially only targeted to prevent livelocks between a timer
deletion and the timer expiry function on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels,
it turned out that fixing this for mainline is not as trivial as just
implementing a stub similar to the hrtimer/timer callbacks.

The reason is that for CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK enabled
systems there is a livelock issue independent of RT.

CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK=y moves the expiry of POSIX CPU
timers out from hard interrupt context to task work, which is handled
before returning to user space or to a VM. The expiry mechanism moves
the expired timers to a stack local list head with sighand lock held.
Once sighand is dropped the task can be preempted and a task which
wants to delete a timer will spin-wait until the expiry task is
scheduled back in. In the worst case this will end up in a livelock
when the preempting task and the expiry task are pinned on the same
CPU.

The timer wheel has a timer_wait_running() mechanism for RT, which
uses a per CPU timer-base expiry lock which is held by the expiry
code and the task waiting for the timer function to complete blocks
on that lock.

This does not work in the same way for posix CPU timers as there is
no timer base and expiry for process wide timers can run on any task
belonging to that process, but the concept of waiting on an expiry
lock can be used too in a slightly different way.

Add a per task mutex to struct posix_cputimers_work, let the expiry
task hold it accross the expiry function and let the deleting task
which waits for the expiry to complete block on the mutex.

In the non-contended case this results in an extra
mutex_lock()/unlock() pair on both sides.

This avoids spin-waiting on a task which is scheduled out, prevents
the livelock and cures the problem for RT and !RT systems

posix-cpu-timers: Implement the missing timer_wait_running callback

For some unknown reason the introduction of the timer_wait_running callback
missed to fixup posix CPU timers, which went unnoticed for almost four years.
Marco reported recently that the WARN_ON() in timer_wait_running()
triggers with a posix CPU timer test case.

Posix CPU timers have two execution models for expiring timers depending on
CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK:

1) If not enabled, the expiry happens in hard interrupt context so
spin waiting on the remote CPU is reasonably time bound.

Implement an empty stub function for that case.

2) If enabled, the expiry happens in task work before returning to user
space or guest mode. The expired timers are marked as firing and moved
from the timer queue to a local list head with sighand lock held. Once
the timers are moved, sighand lock is dropped and the expiry happens in
fully preemptible context. That means the expiring task can be scheduled
out, migrated, interrupted etc. So spin waiting on it is more than
suboptimal.

The timer wheel has a timer_wait_running() mechanism for RT, which uses
a per CPU timer-base expiry lock which is held by the expiry code and the
task waiting for the timer function to complete blocks on that lock.

This does not work in the same way for posix CPU timers as there is no
timer base and expiry for process wide timers can run on any task
belonging to that process, but the concept of waiting on an expiry lock
can be used too in a slightly different way:

- Add a mutex to struct posix_cputimers_work. This struct is per task
and used to schedule the expiry task work from the timer interrupt.

- Add a task_struct pointer to struct cpu_timer which is used to store
a the task which runs the expiry. That's filled in when the task
moves the expired timers to the local expiry list. That's not
affecting the size of the k_itimer union as there are bigger union
members already

- Let the task take the expiry mutex around the expiry function

- Let the waiter acquire a task reference with rcu_read_lock() held and
block on the expiry mutex

This avoids spin-waiting on a task which might not even be on a CPU and
works nicely for RT too.

Merge tag 'timers-core-2023-02-20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for timekeeping, timers and clockevent/source drivers:

Core:

- Yet another round of improvements to make the clocksource watchdog
more robust:

- Relax the clocksource-watchdog skew criteria to match the NTP
criteria.

- Temporarily skip the watchdog when high memory latencies are
detected which can lead to false-positives.

- Provide an option to enable TSC skew detection even on systems
where TSC is marked as reliable.

Sigh!

- Initialize the restart block in the nanosleep syscalls to be
directed to the no restart function instead of doing a partial
setup on entry.

This prevents an erroneous restart_syscall() invocation from
corrupting user space data. While such a situation is clearly a
user space bug, preventing this is a correctness issue and caters
to the least suprise principle.

- Ignore the hrtimer slack for realtime tasks in schedule_hrtimeout()
to align it with the nanosleep semantics.

Drivers:

- The obligatory new driver bindings for Mediatek, Rockchip and
RISC-V variants.

- Add support for the C3STOP misfeature to the RISC-V timer to handle
the case where the timer stops in deeper idle state.

- Set up a static key in the RISC-V timer correctly before first use.

- The usual small improvements and fixes all over the place"
