Thomas Gleixner f87cbcb345 timekeeping: Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for tick_do_timer_cpu
tick_do_timer_cpu is used lockless to check which CPU needs to take care
of the per tick timekeeping duty. This is done to avoid a thundering
herd problem on jiffies_lock.

The read and writes are not annotated so KCSAN complains about data races:

  BUG: KCSAN: data-race in tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick / tick_nohz_next_event

  write to 0xffffffff8a2bda30 of 4 bytes by task 0 on cpu 26:
   tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick+0x3b1/0x4a0
   do_idle+0x1e3/0x250

  read to 0xffffffff8a2bda30 of 4 bytes by task 0 on cpu 16:
   tick_nohz_next_event+0xe7/0x1e0
   tick_nohz_get_sleep_length+0xa7/0xe0
   menu_select+0x82/0xb90
   cpuidle_select+0x44/0x60
   do_idle+0x1c2/0x250

  value changed: 0x0000001a -> 0xffffffff

Annotate them with READ/WRITE_ONCE() to document the intentional data race.

Anna-Maria Behnsen 7a96a84bfb timers/migration: Return early on deactivation
Commit 4b6f4c5a67 ("timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on
deactivation") removed the logic to return early in tmigr_update_events()
on deactivation. With this the problem with a not properly updated first
global event in a hierarchy containing only a single group was fixed.

But when having a look at this code path with a hierarchy with more than a
single level, now unnecessary work is done (example is partially copied
from the message of the commit mentioned above):

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = 0              migrator = NONE
           active   = 0              active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i, T1        nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
      active         idle            idle       idle

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
CPU 2 also has a timer. The expiry order is T0 (ignored) < T1 < T2

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". Without this
early return the following steps happen in tmigr_update_events() when
child = null and group = GRP0:0 :

  lock(GRP0:0->lock);
  timerqueue_del(GRP0:0, T0i);
  unlock(GRP0:0->lock);


                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = NONE
                         active   = NONE
                         nextevt  = T0:0, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

2) The change now propagates up to the top. Then tmigr_update_events()
updates the group event of GRP0:0 and executes the following steps
(child = GRP0:0 and group = GRP0:0):

  lock(GRP0:0->lock);
  lock(GRP1:0->lock);
  evt = tmigr_next_groupevt(GRP0:0); -> this removes the ignored events
					in GRP0:0
  ... update GRP1:0 group event and timerqueue ...
  unlock(GRP1:0->lock);
  unlock(GRP0:0->lock);

So the dance in 1) with locking the GRP0:0->lock and removing the T0i from
the timerqueue is redundand as this is done nevertheless in 2) when
tmigr_next_groupevt(GRP0:0) is executed.

Revert commit 4b6f4c5a67 ("timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on
deactivation") and add a condition into return path to skip the return
only, when hierarchy contains a single group. Adapt comments accordingly.

Frederic Weisbecker 61f7fdf8fd timers/migration: Fix ignored event due to missing CPU update
When a group event is updated with its expiry unchanged but a different
CPU, that target change may go unnoticed and the event may be propagated
up with a stale CPU value. The following depicts a scenario that has
been actually observed:

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = TGRP1:0 (T0)
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T0
      /         \
    0 (T0)       1 (T1)
    idle         idle

0) The hierarchy has 3 levels. The left part (GRP1:0) is all idle,
including CPU 0 and CPU 1 which have a timer each: T0 and T1. They have
the same expiry value.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T0
      /         \
    0 (T0)       1 (T1)
    idle         idle

1) The migrator in GRP1:1 handles remotely T0. The event is dequeued
from the top and T0 executed.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

2) The migrator in GRP1:1 fetches the next timer for CPU 0 and finds
none. But it updates the events from its groups, starting with GRP0:0
which now has T1 as its next event. So far so good.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

3) The migrator in GRP1:1 proceeds upward and updates the events in
GRP1:0. The child event TGRP0:0 is found queued with the same expiry
as before. And therefore it is left unchanged. However the target CPU
is not the same but that fact is ignored so TGRP0:0 still points to
CPU 0 when it should point to CPU 1.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = TGRP1:0 (T0)
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

4) The propagation has reached the top level and TGRP1:0, having TGRP0:0
as its first event, also wrongly points to CPU 0. TGRP1:0 is added to
the top level group.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

5) The migrator in GRP1:1 dequeues the next event in top level pointing
to CPU 0. But since it actually doesn't see any real event in CPU 0, it
early returns.

6) T1 is left unhandled until either CPU 0 or CPU 1 wake up.

Some other bad scenario may involve trees with just two levels.

Fix this with unconditionally updating the CPU of the child event before
considering to early return while updating a queued event with an
unchanged expiry value.

Linus Torvalds 70293240c5 Two regression fixes for the timer and timer migration code:
1) Prevent endless timer requeuing which is caused by two CPUs racing out
      of idle. This happens when the last CPU goes idle and therefore has to
      ensure to expire the pending global timers and some other CPU come out
      of idle at the same time and the other CPU wins the race and expires
      the global queue. This causes the last CPU to chase ghost timers
      forever and reprogramming it's clockevent device endlessly.
 
      Cure this by re-evaluating the wakeup time unconditionally.
 
   2) The split into local (pinned) and global timers in the timer wheel
      caused a regression for NOHZ full as it broke the idle tracking of
      global timers. On NOHZ full this prevents an self IPI being sent which
      in turn causes the timer to be not programmed and not being expired on
      time.
 
      Restore the idle tracking for the global timer base so that the self
      IPI condition for NOHZ full is working correctly again.

Frederic Weisbecker 0387703986 timers: Fix removed self-IPI on global timer's enqueue in nohz_full
While running in nohz_full mode, a task may enqueue a timer while the
tick is stopped. However the only places where the timer wheel,
alongside the timer migration machinery's decision, may reprogram the
next event accordingly with that new timer's expiry are the idle loop or
any IRQ tail.

However neither the idle task nor an interrupt may run on the CPU if it
resumes busy work in userspace for a long while in full dynticks mode.

To solve this, the timer enqueue path raises a self-IPI that will
re-evaluate the timer wheel on its IRQ tail. This asynchronous solution
avoids potential locking inversion.

This is supposed to happen both for local and global timers but commit:

	b2cf7507e1 ("timers: Always queue timers on the local CPU")

broke the global timers case with removing the ->is_idle field handling
for the global base. As a result, global timers enqueue may go unnoticed
in nohz_full.

Fix this with restoring the idle tracking of the global timer's base,
allowing self-IPIs again on enqueue time.

Frederic Weisbecker f55acb1e44 timers/migration: Fix endless timer requeue after idle interrupts
When a CPU is an idle migrator, but another CPU wakes up before it,
becomes an active migrator and handles the queue, the initial idle
migrator may end up endlessly reprogramming its clockevent, chasing ghost
timers forever such as in the following scenario:

               [GRP0:0]
             migrator = 0
             active   = 0
             nextevt  = T1
              /         \
             0           1
          active        idle (T1)

0) CPU 1 is idle and has a timer queued (T1), CPU 0 is active and is
the active migrator.

               [GRP0:0]
             migrator = NONE
             active   = NONE
             nextevt  = T1
              /         \
             0           1
          idle        idle (T1)
          wakeup = T1

1) CPU 0 is now idle and is therefore the idle migrator. It has
programmed its next timer interrupt to handle T1.

                [GRP0:0]
             migrator = 1
             active   = 1
             nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
              /         \
             0           1
          idle        active
          wakeup = T1

2) CPU 1 has woken up, it is now active and it has just handled its own
timer T1.

3) CPU 0 gets a timer interrupt to handle T1 but tmigr_handle_remote()
realize it is not the migrator anymore. So it early returns without
observing that T1 has been expired already and therefore without
updating its ->wakeup value.

4) CPU 0 goes into tmigr_cpu_new_timer() which also early returns
because it doesn't queue a timer of its own. So ->wakeup is left
unchanged and the next timer is programmed to fire now.

5) goto 3) forever

This results in timer interrupt storms in idle and also in nohz_full (as
observed in rcutorture's TREE07 scenario).

Fix this with forcing a re-evaluation of tmc->wakeup while trying
remote timer handling when the CPU isn't the migrator anymmore. The
check is inherently racy but in the worst case the CPU just races setting
the KTIME_MAX value that a remote expiry also tries to set.

  timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on deactivation
2024-03-17 12:19:02 -07:00
Frederic Weisbecker 4b6f4c5a67 timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on deactivation
When a CPU enters into idle and deactivates itself from the timer
migration hierarchy without any global timer of its own to propagate,
the group event of that CPU is set to "ignore" and tmigr_update_events()
accordingly performs an early return without considering timers queued
by other CPUs.

If the hierarchy has a single level, and the CPU is the last one to
enter idle, it will ignore others' global timers, as in the following
layout:

           [GRP0:0]
         migrator = 0
         active   = 0
         nextevt  = T0i
          /         \
         0           1
      active (T0i)  idle (T1)

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.

           [GRP0:0]
         migrator = NONE
         active   = NONE
         nextevt  = T0i
          /         \
         0           1
      idle (T0i)  idle (T1)

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1 and CPU 0 goes to idle with T1
unhandled.

This isn't proper to single level hierarchy though. A similar issue,
although slightly different, may arise on multi-level:

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = 0              migrator = NONE
           active   = 0              active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i            nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
      active         idle            idle       idle

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
CPU 2 also has a timer. The expiry order is T0 (ignored) < T1 < T2

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i            nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1. The change only propagated up to 1st
level so far.

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = NONE
                         active   = NONE
                         nextevt  = T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i            nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

2) The change now propagates up to the top. tmigr_update_events() finds
that the child event is ignored and thus removes it. The top level next
event is now T2 which is returned to CPU 0 as its next effective expiry
to take account for as the global idle migrator. However T1 has been
ignored along the way, leaving it unhandled.

Fix those issues with removing the buggy related early return. Ignored
child events must not prevent from evaluating the other events within
the same group.

Linus Torvalds 685d982112 Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
   to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,
   by Uros Bizjak:
 
    - This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
      memory via variables declared with such attributes,
      which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
      than the previous inline assembly code.
 
    - The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
      for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
      cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
 
    - These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
      the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
 
 - Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
   working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
   better code.
 
 - Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
   to generate slightly better code.
 
 - Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
   to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
 
 - Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
   to clean up the logic.
 
 - Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
 
 - Misc cleanups and fixes.
 
 [ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
   this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
   due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
   involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
   and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
   felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

Linus Torvalds d08c407f71 A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
 
     When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer wheel
     of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry. This is done
     to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
 
     This is wrong in several aspects:
 
      1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by

         is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure
         to wake up for the first pinned timer.
 
     The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
     lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the

     The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there

     Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the

     therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own
     timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the
     hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:

   - The hierarchical timer pull model

     When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer
     wheel of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry.
     This is done to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.

     This is wrong in several aspects:

       1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
          definition as the chance to get the prediction right is
          close to zero.

       2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on
          a single target CPU

       3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead
          for dubious value especially under the consideration that the
          vast majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or
          rearmed before they expire.

     and global timers which do not care about where they expire.

     timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.

       - If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry
         time is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU
         makes sure to wake up for the first pinned timer.

Linus Torvalds 80a76c60e5 Updates for timekeeping and PTP core:
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware
   clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation.
 
   That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which requires
   needless exports and exposing internals.
 
   This can be completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using
   them for describing the correlated clock source.
 
   This update adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which
   can be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless
   exports.
 
   This is separate from the timer core changes as it was provided to the
   PTP folks to build further changes on top.
 
   A related improvement for the core and the correlation handling has not
   made it this time, but is expected to get ready for the next round.

Frederic Weisbecker 8ca1836769 timer/migration: Fix quick check reporting late expiry
When a CPU is the last active in the hierarchy and it tries to enter
into idle, the quick check looking up the next event towards cpuidle
heuristics may report a too late expiry, such as in the following
scenario:

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = NONE
                     active   = NONE
                     nextevt  = T0:0, T0:1
                     /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
       active   = NONE           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T0, T1         nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    idle       idle           idle         idle

0) The whole system is idle, and CPU 0 was the last migrator. CPU 0 has
a timer (T0), CPU 1 has a timer (T1) and CPU 2 has a timer (T2). The
expire order is T0 < T1 < T2.

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = GRP0:0
                     active   = GRP0:0
                     nextevt  = T0:0(i), T0:1
                   /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = CPU0           migrator = NONE
       active   = CPU0           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T0(i), T1      nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    active       idle           idle         idle

1) CPU 0 becomes active. The (i) means a now ignored timer.

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = GRP0:0
                     active   = GRP0:0
                     nextevt  = T0:1
                     /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = CPU0           migrator = NONE
       active   = CPU0           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    active       idle           idle         idle

2) CPU 0 handles remote. No timer actually expired but ignored timers
   have been cleaned out and their sibling's timers haven't been
   propagated. As a result the top level's next event is T2 and not T1.

3) CPU 0 tries to enter idle without any global timer enqueued and calls
   tmigr_quick_check(). The expiry of T2 is returned instead of the
   expiry of T1.

When the quick check returns an expiry that is too late, the cpuidle
governor may pick up a C-state that is too deep. This may be result into
undesired CPU wake up latency if the next timer is actually close enough.

Fix this with assuming that expiries aren't sorted top-down while
performing the quick check. Pick up instead the earliest encountered one
while walking up the hierarchy.

Thomas Gleixner 2be2a197ff sched/idle: Conditionally handle tick broadcast in default_idle_call()
The x86 architecture has an idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected
by erratum 400. On the affected CPUs the local APIC timer stops in the
C1E halt state.

It therefore requires tick broadcasting. The invocation of
tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() from this function violates the RCU
constraints because it can end up in lockdep or tracing, which
rightfully triggers a warning.

tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() must be invoked before ct_cpuidle_enter()
and after ct_cpuidle_exit() in default_idle_call().

Add a static branch conditional invocation of tick_broadcast_enter()/exit()
into this function to allow X86 to replace the AMD specific idle code. It's
guarded by a config switch which will be selected by x86. Otherwise it's
a NOOP.

Arnd Bergmann a184d9835a tick/sched: Fix build failure for CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n
In configurations with CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT but no CONFIG_NO_HZ or
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS, tick_sched_timer_dying() is stubbed out,
but still defined as a global function as well:

kernel/time/tick-sched.c:1599:6: error: redefinition of 'tick_sched_timer_dying'
 1599 | void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu)

  111 | static inline void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu) { }
      |                    ^

This configuration only appears with ARM CONFIG_ARCH_BCM_MOBILE,
which should not actually select CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT.

Adjust the #ifdef for the stub to match the condition for building the
tick-sched.c file for consistency with the definition and to avoid
the build regression.

Frederic Weisbecker 19b344a91f timers: Assert no next dyntick timer look-up while CPU is offline
The next timer (re-)evaluation, with the purpose of entering/updating
the dyntick mode, can happen from 3 sites and none of them are relevant
while the CPU is offline:

1) The idle loop:
	a) From the quick check helping the cpuidle governor to heuristically
	   predict the best C-state.
	b) While stopping the tick.

   But if the CPU is offline, the tick has been cancelled and there is
   consequently no need to further stop the tick.

2) Remote expiry: when a CPU remotely expires global timers on behalf of
   another CPU, the latter target's next timer is re-evaluated
   afterwards. However remote expîry doesn't happen on offline CPUs.

3) IRQ exit: on nohz_full mode, the tick is (re-)evaluated on IRQ exit.
   But full dynticks is disabled on offline CPUs.

Therefore it is safe to assume that no next dyntick timer lookup can
be performed on offline CPUs.

Assert this expectation to report any surprise.

Frederic Weisbecker 500f8f9bce tick: Assume timekeeping is correctly handed over upon last offline idle call
The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU on stop
machine, then the oneshot tick is stopped right after.  Therefore it's
guaranteed that the current CPU isn't the timekeeper upon its last call
to idle.

Besides, calling tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() while the dying CPU goes
into idle suggests that the tick is going to be stopped while it is
actually stopped already from the appropriate CPU hotplug state.

Remove the confusing call and the obsolete case handling and convert it
to a sanity check that verifies the above assumption.

Frederic Weisbecker 3f69d04e14 tick: Shut down low-res tick from dying CPU
The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU within stop
machine. This works well if CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n or the tick is in
high-res mode. However in low-res dynticks mode, the tick isn't
cancelled until the clockevent is shut down, which can happen later. The
tick may therefore fire again once IRQs are re-enabled on stop machine
and until IRQs are disabled for good upon the last call to idle.

That's so many opportunities for a timekeeper to go idle and the
outgoing CPU to take over that duty. This is why
tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() is called one last time on idle if the CPU
is seen offline: so that the timekeeping duty is handed over again in
case the CPU has re-taken the duty.

This means there are two timekeeping handovers on CPU down hotplug with
different undocumented constraints and purposes:

1) A handover on stop machine for !dynticks || highres. All online CPUs
   are guaranteed to be non-idle and the timekeeping duty can be safely
   handed-over. The hrtimer tick is cancelled so it is guaranteed that in
   dynticks mode the outgoing CPU won't take again the duty.

2) A handover on last idle call for dynticks && lowres.  Setting the
   duty to TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE makes sure that a CPU will take over the
   timekeeping.

Prepare for consolidating the handover to a single place (the first one)
with shutting down the low-res tick as well from
tick_cancel_sched_timer() as well. This will simplify the handover and
unify the tick cancellation between high-res and low-res.

Frederic Weisbecker 7988e5ae2b tick: Split nohz and highres features from nohz_mode
The nohz mode field tells about low resolution nohz mode or high
resolution nohz mode but it doesn't tell about high resolution non-nohz
mode.

In order to retrieve the latter state, tick_cancel_sched_timer() must
fiddle with struct hrtimer's internals to guess if the tick has been
initialized in high resolution.

Move instead the nohz mode field information into the tick flags and
provide two new bits: one to know if the tick is in nohz mode and
another one to know if the tick is in high resolution. The combination
of those two flags provides all the needed informations to determine
which of the three tick modes is running.

Frederic Weisbecker a478ffb2ae tick: Move individual bit features to debuggable mask accesses
The individual bitfields of struct tick_sched must be modified from
IRQs disabled places, otherwise local modifications can race due to them
sharing the same memory storage.

The recent move of the "got_idle_tick" bitfield to its own storage shows
that the use of these bitfields, as pretty as they look, can be as much
error prone.

In order to avoid future issues of the like and make sure that those
bitfields are safely accessed, move those flags to an explicit mask

check.

Frederic Weisbecker 3ce74f1a85 tick: Move got_idle_tick away from common flags
tick_nohz_idle_got_tick() is called by cpuidle_reflect() within the idle
loop with interrupts enabled. This function modifies the struct
tick_sched's bitfield "got_idle_tick". However this bitfield is stored
within the same mask as other bitfields that can be modified from
interrupts.

Fortunately so far it looks like the only race that can happen is while
writing ->got_idle_tick to 0, an interrupt fires and writes the
->idle_active field to 0. It's then possible that the interrupted write
to ->got_idle_tick writes back the old value of ->idle_active back to 1.

However if that happens, the worst possible outcome is that the time
spent between that interrupt and the upcoming call to
tick_nohz_idle_exit() is accounted as idle, which is negligible quantity.

Still all the bitfield writes within this struct tick_sched's shadow
mask should be IRQ-safe. Therefore move this bitfield out to its own
storage to avoid further suprises.

Frederic Weisbecker d9b1865c86 tick: Assume the tick can't be stopped in NOHZ_MODE_INACTIVE mode
The full-nohz update function checks if the nohz mode is active before
proceeding. It considers one exception though: if the tick is already
stopped even though the nohz mode is inactive, it still moves on in
order to update/restart the tick if needed.

However in order for the tick to be stopped, the nohz_mode has to be
either NOHZ_MODE_LOWRES or NOHZ_MODE_HIGHRES. Therefore it doesn't make
sense to test if the tick is stopped before verifying NOHZ_MODE_INACTIVE
mode.

Frederic Weisbecker 3ad6eb0683 tick: Start centralizing tick related CPU hotplug operations
During the CPU offlining process, the various timer tick features are
shut down from scattered places, sometimes from teardown callbacks on
stop machine, sometimes through explicit calls, sometimes from the
control CPU after the CPU died. The reason why these shutdown operations
are spread around is not always clear and it makes the tick lifecycle
hard to follow.

The tick should be shut down in order from highest to lowest level:

On stop machine from the dying CPU (high-level):

 1) Hand-over the timekeeping duty (tick_handover_do_timer())
 2) Cancel the tick implementation called by the clockevent callback
    (tick_cancel_sched_timer())
 3) Shutdown broadcasting (tick_offline_cpu() / tick_broadcast_offline())

On stop machine from the dying CPU (low-level):

 4) Shutdown clockevents drivers (CPUHP_AP_*_TIMER_STARTING states)

From the control CPU after the CPU died (low-level):

 5) Shutdown/unregister/cleanup clockevents for the dead CPU
    (tick_cleanup_dead_cpu())

Instead the current order is 2, 4 (both from CPU hotplug states), then
1 and 3 through direct calls. This layout and order don't make much
sense. The operations 1, 2, 3 should be gathered together and in order.

Sort this situation with creating a new TICK shut-down CPU hotplug state
and start with introducing the timekeeping duty hand-over there. The
state must precede hrtimers migration because the tick hrtimer will be
stopped from it in a further patch.

Anna-Maria Behnsen 7ee9887703 timers: Implement the hierarchical pull model
Placing timers at enqueue time on a target CPU based on dubious heuristics
does not make any sense:

 1) Most timer wheel timers are canceled or rearmed before they expire.

 2) The heuristics to predict which CPU will be busy when the timer expires
    are wrong by definition.

So placing the timers at enqueue wastes precious cycles.

The proper solution to this problem is to always queue the timers on the
local CPU and allow the non pinned timers to be pulled onto a busy CPU at
expiry time.

Therefore split the timer storage into local pinned and global timers:
Local pinned timers are always expired on the CPU on which they have been
queued. Global timers can be expired on any CPU.

As long as a CPU is busy it expires both local and global timers. When a
CPU goes idle it arms for the first expiring local timer. If the first
expiring pinned (local) timer is before the first expiring movable timer,
then no action is required because the CPU will wake up before the first
movable timer expires. If the first expiring movable timer is before the
first expiring pinned (local) timer, then this timer is queued into an idle
timerqueue and eventually expired by another active CPU.

To avoid global locking the timerqueues are implemented as a hierarchy. The
lowest level of the hierarchy holds the CPUs. The CPUs are associated to
groups of 8, which are separated per node. If more than one CPU group
exist, then a second level in the hierarchy collects the groups. Depending
on the size of the system more than 2 levels are required. Each group has a
"migrator" which checks the timerqueue during the tick for remote expirable
timers.

If the last CPU in a group goes idle it reports the first expiring event in
the group up to the next group(s) in the hierarchy. If the last CPU goes
idle it arms its timer for the first system wide expiring timer to ensure
that no timer event is missed.
