drivers
commit 67c632b4a7fbd6b76a08b86f4950f0f84de93439 upstream.
Most drivers only populate the fields cycles and cs_id of system_counterval
in their get_time_fn() callback for get_device_system_crosststamp(), unless
they explicitly provide nanosecond values.
When the use_nsecs field was added to struct system_counterval, most
drivers did not care. Clock sources other than CSID_GENERIC could then get
converted in convert_base_to_cs() based on an uninitialized use_nsecs field,
which usually results in -EINVAL during the following range check.
Pass in a fully zero initialized system_counterval_t to cure that.

[ Upstream commit 08d7becc1a6b8c936e25d827becabfe3bff72a36 ]
Right now, if the clocksource watchdog detects a clocksource skew, it might
perform a per CPU check, for example in the TSC case on x86. In other
words: supposing TSC is detected as unstable by the clocksource watchdog
running at CPU1, as part of marking TSC unstable the kernel will also run a
check of TSC readings on some CPUs to be sure it is synced between them
all.
But that check happens only on some CPUs, not all of them; this choice is
based on the parameter "verify_n_cpus" and in some random cpumask
calculation. So, the watchdog runs such per CPU checks on up to
"verify_n_cpus" random CPUs among all online CPUs, with the risk of
repeating CPUs (that aren't double checked) in the cpumask random
calculation.
But if "verify_n_cpus" > num_online_cpus(), it should skip the random
calculation and just go ahead and check the clocksource sync between
all online CPUs, without the risk of skipping some CPUs due to
duplicity in the random cpumask calculation.
Tests in a 4 CPU laptop with TSC skew detected led to some cases of the per
CPU verification skipping some CPU even with verify_n_cpus=8, due to the
duplicity on random cpumask generation. Skipping the randomization when the
number of online CPUs is smaller than verify_n_cpus, solves that.

posix_cpu_timer_del()
commit f90fff1e152dedf52b932240ebbd670d83330eca upstream.
If an exiting non-autoreaping task has already passed exit_notify() and
calls handle_posix_cpu_timers() from IRQ, it can be reaped by its parent
or debugger right after unlock_task_sighand().
If a concurrent posix_cpu_timer_del() runs at that moment, it won't be
able to detect timer->it.cpu.firing != 0: cpu_timer_task_rcu() and/or
lock_task_sighand() will fail.
Add the tsk->exit_state check into run_posix_cpu_timers() to fix this.
This fix is not needed if CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK=y, because
exit_task_work() is called before exit_notify(). But the check still
makes sense, task_work_add(&tsk->posix_cputimers_work.work) will fail
anyway in this case.

[ Upstream commit 4441b976dfeff0d3579e8da3c0283300c618a553 ]
Clang and GCC complain about overlapped initialisers in the
hrtimer_clock_to_base_table definition. With `make W=1` and CONFIG_WERROR=y
(which is default nowadays) this breaks the build:
CC kernel/time/hrtimer.o
kernel/time/hrtimer.c:124:21: error: initializer overrides prior initialization of this subobject [-Werror,-Winitializer-overrides]
124 | [CLOCK_REALTIME] = HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME,
kernel/time/hrtimer.c:122:27: note: previous initialization is here
122 | [0 ... MAX_CLOCKS - 1] = HRTIMER_MAX_CLOCK_BASES,
(and similar for CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_BOOTTIME, and CLOCK_TAI).
hrtimer_clockid_to_base(), which uses the table, is only used in
__hrtimer_init(), which is not a hotpath.
Therefore replace the table lookup with a switch case in
hrtimer_clockid_to_base() to avoid this warning.

[ Upstream commit a52067c24ccf6ee4c85acffa0f155e9714f9adce ]
This reverts commit f590308536db ("timer debug: Hide kernel addresses via
%pK in /proc/timer_list")
The timer list helper SEQ_printf() uses either the real seq_printf() for
procfs output or vprintk() to print to the kernel log, when invoked from
SysRq-q. It uses %pK for printing pointers.
In the past %pK was prefered over %p as it would not leak raw pointer
values into the kernel log. Since commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash
addresses printed with %p") the regular %p has been improved to avoid this
issue.
Furthermore, restricted pointers ("%pK") were never meant to be used
through printk(). They can still unintentionally leak raw pointers or
acquire sleeping looks in atomic contexts.
Switch to the regular pointer formatting which is safer, easier to reason
about and sufficient here.

[ Upstream commit 2389c6efd3ad8edb3bcce0019b4edcc7d9c7de19 ]
Frederic pointed out that the memory operations to initialize the timer are
not guaranteed to be visible, when __lock_timer() observes timer::it_signal
valid under timer::it_lock:
T0 T1
--------- -----------
do_timer_create()
// A
new_timer->.... = ....
spin_lock(current->sighand)
// B
WRITE_ONCE(new_timer->it_signal, current->signal)
spin_unlock(current->sighand)
sys_timer_*()
t = __lock_timer()
spin_lock(&timr->it_lock)
// observes B
if (timr->it_signal == current->signal)
return timr;
if (!t)
return;
// Is not guaranteed to observe A
Protect the write of timer::it_signal, which makes the timer valid, with
timer::it_lock as well. This guarantees that T1 must observe the
initialization A completely, when it observes the valid signal pointer
under timer::it_lock. sighand::siglock must still be taken to protect the
signal::posix_timers list.

atomic context
[ Upstream commit 6bb05a33337b2c842373857b63de5c9bf1ae2a09 ]
The following bug report happened with a PREEMPT_RT kernel:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 2012, name: kwatchdog
preempt_count: 1, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0
get_random_u32+0x4f/0x110
clocksource_verify_choose_cpus+0xab/0x1a0
clocksource_verify_percpu.part.0+0x6b/0x330
clocksource_watchdog_kthread+0x193/0x1a0
It is due to the fact that clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() is invoked with
preemption disabled. This function invokes get_random_u32() to obtain
random numbers for choosing CPUs. The batched_entropy_32 local lock and/or
the base_crng.lock spinlock in driver/char/random.c will be acquired during
the call. In PREEMPT_RT kernel, they are both sleeping locks and so cannot
be acquired in atomic context.
Fix this problem by using migrate_disable() to allow smp_processor_id() to
be reliably used without introducing atomic context. preempt_disable() is
then called after clocksource_verify_choose_cpus() but before the
clocksource measurement is being run to avoid introducing unexpected
latency.

commit 868c9037df626b3c245ee26a290a03ae1f9f58d3 upstream.
Before attaching a new root to the old root, the children counter of the
new root is checked to verify that only the upcoming CPU's top group have
been connected to it. However since the recently added commit b729cc1ec21a
("timers/migration: Fix another race between hotplug and idle entry/exit")
this check is not valid anymore because the old root is pre-accounted
as a child to the new root. Therefore after connecting the upcoming
CPU's top group to the new root, the children count to be expected must
be 2 and not 1 anymore.
This omission results in the old root to not be connected to the new
root. Then eventually the system may run with more than one top level,
which defeats the purpose of a single idle migrator.
Also the old root is pre-accounted but not connected upon the new root
creation. But it can be connected to the new root later on. Therefore
the old root may be accounted twice to the new root. The propagation of
such overcommit can end up creating a double final top-level root with a
groupmask incorrectly initialized. Although harmless given that the final
top level roots will never have a parent to walk up to, this oddity
opportunistically reported the core issue:
WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 0 at kernel/time/timer_migration.c:543 tmigr_requires_handle_remote
CPU: 8 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/8

</IRQ>
Fix the problem by taking the old root into account in the children count
of the new root so the connection is not omitted.
Also warn when more than one top level group exists to better detect
similar issues in the future.

commit 53dac345395c0d2493cbc2f4c85fe38aef5b63f5 upstream.
hrtimers are migrated away from the dying CPU to any online target at
the CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING stage in order not to delay bandwidth timers
handling tasks involved in the CPU hotplug forward progress.
However wakeups can still be performed by the outgoing CPU after
CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING. Those can result again in bandwidth timers being
armed. Depending on several considerations (crystal ball power management
based election, earliest timer already enqueued, timer migration enabled or
not), the target may eventually be the current CPU even if offline. If that
happens, the timer is eventually ignored.
The most notable example is RCU which had to deal with each and every of
those wake-ups by deferring them to an online CPU, along with related
workarounds:
_ e787644caf76 (rcu: Defer RCU kthreads wakeup when CPU is dying)
_ 9139f93209d1 (rcu/nocb: Fix RT throttling hrtimer armed from offline CPU)
_ f7345ccc62a4 (rcu/nocb: Fix rcuog wake-up from offline softirq)
The problem isn't confined to RCU though as the stop machine kthread
(which runs CPUHP_AP_HRTIMERS_DYING) reports its completion at the end
of its work through cpu_stop_signal_done() and performs a wake up that
eventually arms the deadline server timer:

Instead of providing yet another bandaid to work around the situation, fix
it in the hrtimers infrastructure instead: always migrate away a timer to
an online target whenever it is enqueued from an offline CPU.
This will also allow to revert all the above RCU disgraceful hacks.

commit de3ced72a79280fefd680e5e101d8b9f03cfa1d7 upstream.
Commit 2522c84db513 ("timers/migration: Fix another race between hotplug

hotplug up leading to a wrong "0" value migrator assigned to the top
level. However there is yet another situation that remains unhandled:

migrator = CPU 0

2) CPU 1 is activating. CPU 0 stays the migrator (still stuck in

3) CPU 8 is preparing to boot. CPUHP_TMIGR_PREPARE is being ran by CPU 1
which has created the GRP0:1 and the new top GRP1:0 connected to GRP0:1

4) CPU 0 finally resumed after its #VMEXIT. It's in __walk_groups()
returning from tmigr_cpu_active(). The new top GRP1:0 is visible and
fetched and the pre-initialized groupmask of GRP0:0 is also visible.
As a result tmigr_active_up() is called to GRP1:0 with GRP0:0 as active
and migrator. CPU 0 is returning to __walk_groups() but suffers again
a #VMEXIT.

5) CPU 1 propagates its activation of GRP0:0 to GRP1:0. This has no
effect since CPU 0 did it already.

8) CPU 0 finally resumed after its #VMEXIT. It's in __walk_groups()
returning from tmigr_cpu_active(). The new top GRP2:0 is visible and
fetched but the pre-initialized groupmask of GRP1:0 is not because no
ordering made its initialization visible. As a result tmigr_active_up()
may be called to GRP2:0 with a "0" child's groumask. Leaving the timers
ignored for ever when the system is fully idle.
The race is highly theoretical and perhaps impossible in practice but
the groupmask of the child is not the only concern here as the whole
initialization of the child is not guaranteed to be visible to any
tree walker racing against hotplug (idle entry/exit, remote handling,
etc...). Although the current code layout seem to be resilient to such
hazards, this doesn't tell much about the future.
Fix this with enforcing address dependency between group initialization
and the write/read to the group's parent's pointer. Fortunately that
doesn't involve any barrier addition in the fast paths.

commit b729cc1ec21a5899b7879ccfbe1786664928d597 upstream.
Commit 10a0e6f3d3db ("timers/migration: Move hierarchy setup into
cpuhotplug prepare callback") fixed a race between idle exit and CPU
hotplug up leading to a wrong "0" value migrator assigned to the top
level. However there is still a situation that remains unhandled:
[GRP0:0]
migrator = TMIGR_NONE
active = NONE
groupmask = 0
/ \ \
0 1 2..7
idle idle idle
0) The system is fully idle.
[GRP0:0]
migrator = CPU 0
active = CPU 0
groupmask = 0
/ \ \
0 1 2..7
active idle idle
1) CPU 0 is activating. It has done the cmpxchg on the top's ->migr_state
but it hasn't yet returned to __walk_groups().
[GRP0:0]
migrator = CPU 0
active = CPU 0, CPU 1
groupmask = 0
/ \ \
0 1 2..7
active active idle
2) CPU 1 is activating. CPU 0 stays the migrator (still stuck in
__walk_groups(), delayed by #VMEXIT for example).
[GRP1:0]
migrator = TMIGR_NONE
active = NONE
groupmask = 0
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = CPU 0 migrator = TMIGR_NONE
active = CPU 0, CPU1 active = NONE
groupmask = 2 groupmask = 1
/ \ \
0 1 2..7 8
active active idle !online
3) CPU 8 is preparing to boot. CPUHP_TMIGR_PREPARE is being ran by CPU 1
which has created the GRP0:1 and the new top GRP1:0 connected to GRP0:1
and GRP0:0. The groupmask of GRP0:0 is now 2. CPU 1 hasn't yet
propagated its activation up to GRP1:0.
[GRP1:0]
migrator = 0 (!!!)
active = NONE
groupmask = 0
/ \
[GRP0:0] [GRP0:1]
migrator = CPU 0 migrator = TMIGR_NONE
active = CPU 0, CPU1 active = NONE
groupmask = 2 groupmask = 1
/ \ \
0 1 2..7 8
active active idle !online
4) CPU 0 finally resumed after its #VMEXIT. It's in __walk_groups()
returning from tmigr_cpu_active(). The new top GRP1:0 is visible and
fetched but the freshly updated groupmask of GRP0:0 may not be visible
due to lack of ordering! As a result tmigr_active_up() is called to
GRP0:0 with a child's groupmask of "0". This buggy "0" groupmask then
becomes the migrator for GRP1:0 forever. As a result, timers on a fully
idle system get ignored.
One possible fix would be to define TMIGR_NONE as "0" so that such a
race would have no effect. And after all TMIGR_NONE doesn't need to be
anything else. However this would leave an uncomfortable state machine
where gears happen not to break by chance but are vulnerable to future
modifications.
Keep TMIGR_NONE as is instead and pre-initialize to "1" the groupmask of
any newly created top level. This groupmask is guaranteed to be visible
upon fetching the corresponding group for the 1st time:
_ By the upcoming CPU thanks to CPU hotplug synchronization between the
control CPU (BP) and the booting one (AP).
_ By the control CPU since the groupmask and parent pointers are
initialized locally.
_ By all CPUs belonging to the same group than the control CPU because
they must wait for it to ever become idle before needing to walk to
the new top. The cmpcxhg() on ->migr_state then makes sure its
groupmask is visible.
With this pre-initialization, it is guaranteed that if a future top level
is linked to an old one, it is walked through with a valid groupmask.

commit 2f8dea1692eef2b7ba6a256246ed82c365fdc686 upstream.
Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway
through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to
CPUHP_ONLINE:
Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set
to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the
clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online
state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already
active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot
mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state
than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once.
This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1
after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer().
Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which
means there are dangling pointers in the worst case.
Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the
stale per CPU state and sets the online flag.
[ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online
modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining
state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ]

commit 76031d9536a076bf023bedbdb1b4317fc801dd67 upstream.
Guenter reported boot stalls on a emulated ARM 32-bit platform, which has a
24-bit wide clocksource.
It turns out that the calculated maximal idle time, which limits idle
sleeps to prevent clocksource wrap arounds, is close to the point where the
negative motion detection triggers.
max_idle_ns: 597268854 ns
negative motion tripping point: 671088640 ns
If the idle wakeup is delayed beyond that point, the clocksource
advances far enough to trigger the negative motion detection. This
prevents the clock to advance and in the worst case the system stalls
completely if the consecutive sleeps based on the stale clock are
delayed as well.
Cure this by calculating a more robust cut-off value for negative motion,
which covers 87.5% of the actual clocksource counter width. Compare the
delta against this value to catch negative motion. This is specifically for
clock sources with a small counter width as their wrap around time is close
to the half counter width. For clock sources with wide counters this is not
a problem because the maximum idle time is far from the half counter width
due to the math overflow protection constraints.
For the case at hand this results in a tripping point of 1174405120ns.
Note, that this cannot prevent issues when the delay exceeds the 87.5%
margin, but that's not different from the previous unchecked version which
allowed arbitrary time jumps.
Systems with small counter width are prone to invalid results, but this
problem is unlikely to be seen on real hardware. If such a system
completely stalls for more than half a second, then there are other more
urgent problems than the counter wrapping around.

commit d44d26987bb3df6d76556827097fc9ce17565cb8 upstream.
Since 135225a363ae timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handles large offsets which
would lead to 64bit multiplication overflows correctly. It's also protected
against negative motion of the clocksource unconditionally, which was
exclusive to x86 before.
timekeeping_advance() handles large offsets already correctly.
That means the value of CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING which analyzed these cases
is very close to zero. Remove all of it.

[ Upstream commit c163e40af9b2331b2c629fd4ec8b703ed4d4ae39 ]
clocksource_delta() has two variants. One with a check for negative motion,
which is only selected by x86. This is a historic leftover as this function
was previously used in the time getter hot paths.
Since 135225a363ae timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() has unconditional protection
against this as a by-product of the protection against 64bit math overflow.
clocksource_delta() is only used in the clocksource watchdog and in
timekeeping_advance(). The extra conditional there is not hurting anyone.
Remove the config option and unconditionally prevent negative motion of the
readout.

commit f5807b0606da7ac7c1b74a386b22134ec7702d05 upstream.
Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

If get_clock_desc() succeeds, it calls fget() for the clockid's fd,
and get the clk->rwsem read lock, so the error path should release
the lock to make the lock balance and fput the clockid's fd to make
the refcount balance and release the fd related resource.
However the below commit left the error path locked behind resulting in
unbalanced locking. Check timespec64_valid_strict() before
get_clock_desc() to fix it, because the "ts" is not changed
after that.

As Andrew pointed out, it will make sense that the PTP core
checked timespec64 struct's tv_sec and tv_nsec range before calling
ptp->info->settime64().
As the man manual of clock_settime() said, if tp.tv_sec is negative or
tp.tv_nsec is outside the range [0..999,999,999], it should return EINVAL,
which include dynamic clocks which handles PTP clock, and the condition is
consistent with timespec64_valid(). As Thomas suggested, timespec64_valid()
only check the timespec is valid, but not ensure that the time is
in a valid range, so check it ahead using timespec64_valid_strict()
in pc_clock_settime() and return -EINVAL if not valid.
There are some drivers that use tp->tv_sec and tp->tv_nsec directly to
write registers without validity checks and assume that the higher layer
has checked it, which is dangerous and will benefit from this, such as
hclge_ptp_settime(), igb_ptp_settime_i210(), _rcar_gen4_ptp_settime(),
and some drivers can remove the checks of itself.

Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.
Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.
Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.

git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done
would do it.
Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the

.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

"Core:
- Remove a global lock in the affinity setting code
The lock protects a cpumask for intermediate results and the lock
causes a bottleneck on simultaneous start of multiple virtual
machines. Replace the lock and the static cpumask with a per CPU
cpumask which is nicely serialized by raw spinlock held when
executing this code.
- Provide support for giving a suffix to interrupt domain names.
That's required to support devices with subfunctions so that the
domain names are distinct even if they originate from the same

sync_hw_clock() is normally called every 11 minutes when time is
synchronized. This issue is that this periodic timer uses the REALTIME
clock, so when time moves backwards (the NTP server jumps into the past),
the timer expires late.
If the timer expires late, which can be days later, the RTC will no longer
be updated, which is an issue if the device is abruptly powered OFF during
this period. When the device will restart (when powered ON), it will have
the date prior to the ADJ_SETOFFSET call.
A normal NTP server should not jump in the past like that, but it is
possible... Another way of reproducing this issue is to use phc2sys to
synchronize the REALTIME clock with, for example, an IRIG timecode with
the source always starting at the same date (not synchronized).
Also, if the time jump in the future by less than 11 minutes, the RTC may
not be updated immediately (minor issue). Consider the following scenario:
- Time is synchronized, and sync_hw_clock() was just called (the timer
expires in 11 minutes).
- A time jump is realized in the future by a couple of minutes.
- The time is synchronized again.
- Users may expect that RTC to be updated as soon as possible, and not
after 11 minutes (for the same reason, if a power loss occurs in this
period).
Cancel periodic timer on any time jump (ADJ_SETOFFSET) greater than or
equal to 1s. The timer will be relaunched at the end of do_adjtimex() if
NTP is still considered synced. Otherwise the timer will be relaunched
later when NTP is synced. This way, when the time is synchronized again,
the RTC is updated after less than 2 seconds.

Global timers could be expired remotely when the target CPU is idle. After
a remote timer expiry, the remote timer_base->next_expiry value is updated
while holding the timer_base->lock. When the formerly idle CPU becomes
active at the same time and checks whether timers need to expire, this
check is done lockless as it is on the local CPU. This could lead to a data
race, which was reported by sysbot:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/000000000000916e55061f969e14@google.com
When the value is read lockless but changed by the remote CPU, only two non
critical scenarios could happen:
1) The already update value is read -> everything is perfect
2) The old value is read -> a superfluous timer soft interrupt is raised
The same situation could happen when enqueueing a new first pinned timer by
a remote CPU also with non critical scenarios:
1) The already update value is read -> everything is perfect
2) The old value is read -> when the CPU is idle, an IPI is executed
nevertheless and when the CPU isn't idle, the updated value will be visible
on the next tick and the timer might be late one jiffie.
As this is very unlikely to happen, the overhead of doing the check under
the lock is a way more effort, than a superfluous timer soft interrupt or a
possible 1 jiffie delay of the timer.
Document and annotate this non critical behavior in the code by using
READ/WRITE_ONCE() pair when accessing timer_base->next_expiry.

msleep() and msleep_interruptible() add a jiffie to the requested timeout.
This extra jiffie was introduced to ensure that the timeout will not happen
earlier than specified.
Since the rework of the timer wheel, the enqueue path already takes care of
this. So the extra jiffie added by msleep*() is pointless now.
Remove this extra jiffie in msleep() and msleep_interruptible().

The timerslack_ns setting is used to specify how much the hardware
timers should be delayed, to potentially dispatch multiple timers in a
single interrupt. This is a performance optimization. Timers of
realtime tasks (having a realtime scheduling policy) should not be
delayed.
This logic was inconsitently applied to the hrtimers, leading to delays
of realtime tasks which used timed waits for events (e.g. condition
variables). Due to the downstream override of the slack for rt tasks,
the procfs reported incorrect (non-zero) timerslack_ns values.
This is changed by setting the timer_slack_ns task attribute to 0 for
all tasks with a rt policy. By that, downstream users do not need to
specially handle rt tasks (w.r.t. the slack), and the procfs entry
shows the correct value of "0". Setting non-zero slack values (either
via procfs or PR_SET_TIMERSLACK) on tasks with a rt policy is ignored,
as stated in "man 2 PR_SET_TIMERSLACK":
Timer slack is not applied to threads that are scheduled under a
real-time scheduling policy (see sched_setscheduler(2)).
The special handling of timerslack on rt tasks in downstream users
is removed as well.

When soft interrupt actions are called, they are passed a pointer to the
struct softirq action which contains the action's function pointer.
This pointer isn't useful, as the action callback already knows what
function it is. And since each callback handles a specific soft interrupt,
the callback also knows which soft interrupt number is running.
No soft interrupt action callback actually uses this parameter, so remove
it from the function pointer signature. This clarifies that soft interrupt
actions are global routines and makes it slightly cheaper to call them.

rt_task() checks if a task has RT priority. But depends on your
dictionary, this could mean it belongs to RT class, or is a 'realtime'
task, which includes RT and DL classes.
Since this has caused some confusion already on discussion [1], it
seemed a clean up is due.
I define the usage of rt_task() to be tasks that belong to RT class.
Make sure that it returns true only for RT class and audit the users and
replace the ones required the old behavior with the new realtime_task()
which returns true for RT and DL classes. Introduce similar
realtime_prio() to create similar distinction to rt_prio() and update
the users that required the old behavior to use the new function.
Move MAX_DL_PRIO to prio.h so it can be used in the new definitions.
Document the functions to make it more obvious what is the difference
between them. PI-boosted tasks is a factor that must be taken into
account when choosing which function to use.
Rename task_is_realtime() to realtime_task_policy() as the old name is
confusing against the new realtime_task().
No functional changes were intended.

The addition of the bases argument to clock_was_set() fixed up all call
sites correctly except for do_adjtimex(). This uses CLOCK_REALTIME
instead of CLOCK_SET_WALL as argument. CLOCK_REALTIME is 0.
As a result the effect of that clock_was_set() notification is incomplete
and might result in timers expiring late because the hrtimer code does
not re-evaluate the affected clock bases.
Use CLOCK_SET_WALL instead of CLOCK_REALTIME to tell the hrtimers code
which clock bases need to be re-evaluated.

time_maxerror is unconditionally incremented and the result is checked
against NTP_PHASE_LIMIT, but the increment itself can overflow, resulting
in wrap-around to negative space.
Before commit eea83d896e31 ("ntp: NTP4 user space bits update") the user

Miroslav confirmed that the input value should be clamped to the operating

before the sanity check got removed.

Right now, cs_watchdog_read() does clocksource sanity checks based
on WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW, which sets a floor on any clocksource's
.uncertainty_margin. These sanity checks can therefore act
inappropriately for clocksources with large uncertainty margins.
One reason for a clocksource to have a large .uncertainty_margin is when
that clocksource has long read-out latency, given that it does not make
sense for the .uncertainty_margin to be smaller than the read-out latency.
With the current checks, cs_watchdog_read() could reject all normal
reads from a clocksource with long read-out latencies, such as those
from legacy clocksources that are no longer implemented in hardware.
Therefore, recast the cs_watchdog_read() checks in terms of the
.uncertainty_margin values of the clocksources involved in the timespan in
question. The first covers two watchdog reads and one cs read, so use
twice the watchdog .uncertainty_margin plus that of the cs. The second
covers only a pair of watchdog reads, so use twice the watchdog
.uncertainty_margin.
