Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Time and clocksource/clockevent related updates:
Core changes:
- Infrastructure to support per CPU "broadcast" devices for per CPU
clockevent devices which stop in deep idle states. This allows us
to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs
for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to
access SoC specific clockevent device.
- Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list
- Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between
reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog
clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU
preemption.
Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before
and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the
two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence
is repeated up to 3 times.
- Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog
mechanism.
- Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a
faster and significantly smaller version. Straight from the source,
i.e. the author of the related research paper contributed this!
Driver changes:
- No new drivers, not even new device tree bindings!
- Fixes, improvements and cleanups and all over the place"

Adaptively try to shutdown the tick whenever possible, even when

the CPU is running tasks. Typically this requires running a single

task on the CPU. Chances for running tickless are maximized when

|
the task mostly runs in userspace and has few kernel activity.
|
|
|
|
You need to fill up the nohz_full boot parameter with the
|
|
desired range of dynticks CPUs to use it. This is implemented at
|
|
the expense of some overhead in user <-> kernel transitions:
|
|
syscalls, exceptions and interrupts.
|
|
|
|
By default, without passing the nohz_full parameter, this behaves just
|
|
like NO_HZ_IDLE.
|
|
|
|
If you're a distro say Y.

|
|
The major pre-requirement for full dynticks to work is to
|
|
support the context tracking subsystem. But there are also
|
|
other dependencies to provide in order to make the full
|
|
dynticks working.
|
|
|
|
This option stands for testing when an arch implements the
|
|
context tracking backend but doesn't yet fulfill all the
|
|
requirements to make the full dynticks feature working.
|
|
Without the full dynticks, there is no way to test the support
|
|
for context tracking and the subsystems that rely on it: RCU
|
|
userspace extended quiescent state and tickless cputime
|
|
accounting. This option copes with the absence of the full
|
|
dynticks subsystem by forcing the context tracking on all
|
|
CPUs in the system.
|
|
|
|
Say Y only if you're working on the development of an
|
|
architecture backend for the context tracking.
|
|
|
|
Say N otherwise, this option brings an overhead that you
|
|
don't want in production.
