0696b711e4 timekeeping: Fix clock_gettime vsyscall time warp
Since commit 0a544198 "timekeeping: Move NTP adjusted clock multiplier
to struct timekeeper" the clock multiplier of vsyscall is updated with
the unmodified clock multiplier of the clock source and not with the
NTP adjusted multiplier of the timekeeper.

This causes user space observerable time warps:
new CLOCK-warp maximum: 120 nsecs,  00000025c337c537 -> 00000025c337c4bf

Add a new argument "mult" to update_vsyscall() and hand in the
timekeeping internal NTP adjusted multiplier.

a362c638bd clocksource/events: Fix fallout of generic code changes
powerpc grew a new warning due to the type change of clockevent->mult.

The architectures which use parts of the generic time keeping
infrastructure tripped over my wrong assumption that
clocksource_register is only used when GENERIC_TIME=y.

I should have looked and also I should have known better. These
renitent Gaul villages are racking my nerves. Some serious deprecating
is due.

6795b85c6a powerpc: tracing: Add powerpc tracepoints for timer entry and exit
We can monitor the effectiveness of our power management of both the
kernel and hypervisor by probing the timer interrupt. For example, on
this box we see 10.37s timer interrupts on an idle core:

<idle>-0     [010]  3900.671297: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3900.671302: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

<idle>-0     [010]  3911.042963: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3911.042968: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

<idle>-0     [010]  3921.414630: timer_interrupt_entry: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10
<idle>-0     [010]  3921.414635: timer_interrupt_exit: pt_regs=c0000000ce1e7b10

Since we have a 207MHz decrementer it will go negative and fire every 10.37s
even if Linux is completely idle.

cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

105988c015 perf_counter: powerpc: Enable use of software counters on 32-bit powerpc
This enables the perf_counter subsystem on 32-bit powerpc.  Since we
don't have any support for hardware counters on 32-bit powerpc yet,
only software counters can be used.

Besides selecting HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS for 32-bit powerpc as well as
64-bit, the main thing this does is add an implementation of
set_perf_counter_pending().  This needs to arrange for
perf_counter_do_pending() to be called when interrupts are enabled.
Rather than add code to local_irq_restore as 64-bit does, the 32-bit
set_perf_counter_pending() generates an interrupt by setting the
decrementer to 1 so that a decrementer interrupt will become pending
in 1 or 2 timebase ticks (if a decrementer interrupt isn't already
pending).  When interrupts are enabled, timer_interrupt() will be
called, and some new code in there calls perf_counter_do_pending().
We use a per-cpu array of flags to indicate whether we need to call
perf_counter_do_pending() or not.

This introduces a couple of new Kconfig symbols: PPC_HAVE_PMU_SUPPORT,
which is selected by processor families for which we have hardware PMU
support (currently only PPC64), and PPC_PERF_CTRS, which enables the
powerpc-specific perf_counter back-end.

8d165db107 powerpc: Improve decrementer accuracy
I have been looking at sources of OS jitter and notice that after a long
NO_HZ idle period we wakeup too early:

relative time (us)    event
                      timer irq exit
    999946.405        timer irq entry
         4.835        timer irq exit
        21.685        timer irq entry
         3.540          timer (tick_sched_timer) entry

Here we slept for just under a second then took a timer interrupt that did
nothing. 21.685 us later we wake up again and do the work.

We set a rather low shift value of 16 for the decrementer clockevent, which I
think is causing this issue. On this box we have a 207MHz decrementer and see:

clockevent: decrementer mult[3501] shift[16] cpu[0]

For calculations of large intervals this mult/shift combination could be
off by a significant amount. I notice the sparc code has a loop that iterates
to find a mult/shift combination that maximises the shift value while
keeping mult under 32bit. With the patch below we get:

clockevent: decrementer mult[35015c20] shift[32] cpu[15]

And we no longer see the spurious wakeups.

79741dd357 [PATCH] idle cputime accounting
The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is
currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures
that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the
time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first
is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time.
The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not
the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle
process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true
idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time
instead of just testing for the idle process.
To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture
primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context
points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu.

In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process.
This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should
be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as
every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle
time.

This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to
distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with
support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this.

457533a7d3 [PATCH] fix scaled & unscaled cputime accounting
The utimescaled / stimescaled fields in the task structure and the
global cpustat should be set on all architectures. On s390 the calls
to account_user_time_scaled and account_system_time_scaled never have
been added. In addition system time that is accounted as guest time
to the user time of a process is accounted to the scaled system time
instead of the scaled user time.
To fix the bugs and to prevent future forgetfulness this patch merges
account_system_time_scaled into account_system_time and
account_user_time_scaled into account_user_time.

3cc698789a powerpc: Eliminate unused do_gtod variable
Since we started using the generic timekeeping code, we haven't had a
powerpc-specific version of do_gettimeofday, and hence there is now

This therefore removes it and the code that sets it.

597bc5c00b powerpc: Improve resolution of VDSO clock_gettime
Currently the clock_gettime implementation in the VDSO produces a
result with microsecond resolution for the cases that are handled
without a system call, i.e. CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC.  The
nanoseconds field of the result is obtained by computing a
microseconds value and multiplying by 1000.

This changes the code in the VDSO to do the computation for
clock_gettime with nanosecond resolution.  That means that the
resolution of the result will ultimately depend on the timebase
frequency.

Because the timestamp in the VDSO datapage (stamp_xsec, the real time
corresponding to the timebase count in tb_orig_stamp) is in units of
2^-20 seconds, it doesn't have sufficient resolution for computing a
result with nanosecond resolution.  Therefore this adds a copy of
xtime to the VDSO datapage and updates it in update_gtod() along with
the other time-related fields.

06b8e878a9 taskstats scaled time cleanup
This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code.  This allows us
to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only
add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime.

This adds a cputime_to_scaled function.  As before, the POWERPC version
does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated.  The
generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are
both NOPs.

Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

7ac5dde99e [POWERPC] Implement arch disable/enable irq hooks.
These hooks ensure that a decrementer interrupt is not pending when
suspending; otherwise, problems may occur on 6xx/7xx/7xxx-based
systems (except for powermacs, which use a separate suspend path).
For example, with deep sleep on the 831x, a pending decrementer will
cause a system freeze because the SoC thinks the decrementer interrupt
would have woken the system, but the core must have interrupts
disabled due to the setup required for deep sleep.

Changed via-pmu.c to use the new ppc_md hooks, and made the arch_*
functions call the generic_* functions unconditionally.  -- paulus

53024fe250 [POWERPC] Optimize account_system_vtime
We have multiple calls to has_feature being inlined, but gcc can't
be sure that the store via get_paca() doesn't alias the path to
cur_cpu_spec->feature.

Reorder to put the calls to read_purr and read_spurr adjacent to each
other.  To add a sense of consistency, reorder the remaining lines to
perform parallel steps on purr and scaled purr of each line instead of
calculating and then using one value before going on to the next.

In addition, we can tell gcc that no SPURR means no PURR.  The test is
completely hidden in the PURR case, and in the !PURR case the second test
is eliminated resulting in the simple register copy in the out-of-line
branch.

Further, gcc sees get_paca()->system_time referenced several times and
allocates a register to address it (shadowing r13) instead of caching its
value.  Reading into a local varable saves the shadow of r13 and removes
a potentially duplicate load (between the nested if and its parent).

fa13a5a1f2 sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc
Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().

This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
implement account_process_tick.

This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
suitable account_process_tick().

account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

43875cc0a5 [POWERPC] Fix off-by-one error in setting decrementer on Book E/4xx (v2)
The decrementer in Book E and 4xx processors interrupts on the
transition from 1 to 0, rather than on the 0 to -1 transition as on
64-bit server and 32-bit "classic" (6xx/7xx/7xxx) processors.  At the
moment we subtract 1 from the count of how many decrementer ticks are
required before the next interrupt before putting it into the
decrementer, which is correct for server/classic processors, but could
possibly cause the interrupt to happen too early on Book E and 4xx if
the timebase/decrementer frequency is low.

This fixes the problem by making set_dec subtract 1 from the count for
server and classic processors, instead of having the callers subtract
1.  Since set_dec already had a bunch of ifdefs to handle different
processor types, there is no net increase in ugliness. :)

Note that calling set_dec(0) may not generate an interrupt on some
processors.  To make sure that decrementer_set_next_event always calls
set_dec with an interval of at least 1 tick, we set min_delta_ns of
the decrementer_clockevent to correspond to 2 ticks (2 rather than 1
to compensate for truncations in the conversions between ticks and
ns).

This also removes a redundant call to set the decrementer to
0x7fffffff - it was already set to that earlier in timer_interrupt.
