2013-04-19ARM: 7699/1: sched_clock: Add more notrace to prevent recursionStephen Boyd
cyc_to_sched_clock() is called by sched_clock() and cyc_to_ns() is called by cyc_to_sched_clock(). I suspect that some compilers inline both of these functions into sched_clock() and so we've been getting away without having a notrace marking. It seems that my compiler isn't inlining cyc_to_sched_clock() though, so I'm hitting a recursion bug when I enable the function graph tracer, causing my system to crash. Marking these functions notrace fixes it. Technically cyc_to_ns() doesn't need the notrace because it's already marked inline, but let's just add it so that if we ever remove inline from that function it doesn't blow up.

2013-02-11ARM: 7643/1: sched: correct update_sched_clock()Joonsoo Kim
If we want load epoch_cyc and epoch_ns atomically, we should update epoch_cyc_copy first of all. This notify reader that updating is in progress. If we update epoch_cyc first like as current implementation, there is subtle error case. Look at the below example. <Initial Condition> cyc = 9 ns = 900 cyc_copy = 9 == CASE 1 == <CPU A = reader> <CPU B = updater> write cyc = 10 read cyc = 10 read ns = 900 write ns = 1000 write cyc_copy = 10 read cyc_copy = 10 output = (10, 900) == CASE 2 == <CPU A = reader> <CPU B = updater> read cyc = 9 write cyc = 10 write ns = 1000 read ns = 1000 read cyc_copy = 9 write cyc_copy = 10 output = (9, 1000) If atomic read is ensured, output should be (9, 900) or (10, 1000). But, output in example case are not. So, change updating sequence in order to correct this problem.

2012-10-29ARM: 7565/1: sched: stop sched_clock() during suspendFelipe Balbi 2
The scheduler imposes a requirement to sched_clock() which is to stop the clock during suspend, if we don't do that any RT thread will be rescheduled in the future which might cause any sort of problems. This became an issue on OMAP when we converted omap-i2c.c to use threaded IRQs, it turned out that depending on how much time we spent on suspend, the I2C IRQ thread would end up being rescheduled so far in the future that I2C transfers would timeout and, because omap_hsmmc depends on an I2C-connected device to detect if an MMC card is inserted in the slot, our rootfs would just vanish. arch/arm/kernel/sched_clock.c already had an optional implementation (sched_clock_needs_suspend()) which would handle scheduler's requirement properly, what this patch does is simply to make that implementation non-optional. Note that this has the side-effect that printk timings won't reflect the actual time spent on suspend so other methods to measure that will have to be used. This has been tested with beagleboard XM (OMAP3630) and pandaboard rev A3 (OMAP4430). Suspend to RAM is now working after this patch. Thanks to Kevin Hilman for helping out with debugging.

2012-09-15ARM: Add irqtime accounting supportRussell King
Add support for irq time accounting. This commit prepares ARM by adding the call to enable_sched_clock_irqtime() in sched_clock(). We introduce a new kernel parameter - irqtime - which takes an integer. -1 for auto, 0 for disabled, and 1 for enabled. Auto mode selects IRQ accounting if we have a sched_clock() tick rate greater than 1MHz. Frederic Weisbecker is working on a patch set which moves the IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING into arch/, so that part is not incorporated into this patch; this facility becomes available on ARM only when both this patch and Frederic's patches are merged.

2012-08-11ARM: 7486/1: sched_clock: update epoch_cyc on resumeColin Cross
Many clocks that are used to provide sched_clock will reset during suspend. If read_sched_clock returns 0 after suspend, sched_clock will appear to jump forward. This patch resets cd.epoch_cyc to the current value of read_sched_clock during resume, which causes sched_clock() just after suspend to return the same value as sched_clock() just before suspend. In addition, during the window where epoch_ns has been updated before suspend, but epoch_cyc has not been updated after suspend, it is unknown whether the clock has reset or not, and sched_clock() could return a bogus value. Add a suspended flag, and return the pre-suspend epoch_ns value during this period. The new behavior is triggered by calling setup_sched_clock_needs_suspend instead of setup_sched_clock.

2012-03-24ARM: sync sched_clock() state on suspendRussell King
Ensure that the software state for sched_clock() is updated at the point of suspend so that we avoid losing ticks since the last update. This prevents the platform dependent possibility that sched_clock() may appear to go backwards across a suspend/resume cycle.

2011-12-18ARM: 7205/2: sched_clock: allow sched_clock to be selected at runtimeMarc Zyngier
sched_clock() is yet another blocker on the road to the single image. This patch implements an idea by Russell King: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-omap/msg49561.html Instead of asking the platform to implement both sched_clock() itself and the rollover callback, simply register a read() function, and let the ARM code care about sched_clock() itself, the conversion to ns and the rollover. sched_clock() uses this read() function as an indirection to the platform code. If the platform doesn't provide a read(), the code falls back to the jiffy counter (just like the default sched_clock). This allow some simplifications and possibly some footprint gain when multiple platforms are compiled in. Among the drawbacks, the removal of the *_fixed_sched_clock optimization which could negatively impact some platforms (sa1100, tegra, versatile and omap). Tested on 11MPCore, OMAP4 and Tegra.

2011-01-11ARM: sched_clock: make minsec argument to clocks_calc_mult_shift() zeroRussell King
The purpose of the minsec argument is to prevent 64-bit math overflow when the number of cycles is multiplied up. However, the multipler is 32-bit, and in the sched_clock() case, the cycle counter is up to 32-bit as well. So the math can never overflow. With a value of 60, and clock rates greater than 71MHz, the calculated multiplier is unnecessarily reduced in value, which reduces accuracy by maybe 70ppt. It's almost not worth bothering with as the oscillator driving the counter won't be any more than 1ppm - unless you're using a rubidium lamp or caesium fountain frequency standard. So, set the minsec argument to zero. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2011-01-11ARM: sched_clock: allow init_sched_clock() to be called earlyRussell King
sched_clock is supposed to be initialized early - in the recently added init_early platform hook. However, in doing so we end up calling mod_timer() before the timer lists are initialized, resulting in an oops. Split the initialization in two - the part which the platform calls early which starts things off. The addition of the timer can be delayed until after we have more of the kernel initialized - when the normal time sources are initialized. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2010-12-22ARM: sched_clock: provide common infrastructure for sched_clock()Russell King
Provide common sched_clock() infrastructure for platforms to use to create a 64-bit ns based sched_clock() implementation from a counter running at a non-variable clock rate. This implementation is based upon maintaining an epoch for the counter and an epoch for the nanosecond time. When we desire a sched_clock() time, we calculate the number of counter ticks since the last epoch update, convert this to nanoseconds and add to the epoch nanoseconds. We regularly refresh these epochs within the counter wrap interval. We perform a similar calculation as above, and store the new epochs. We read and write the epochs in such a way that sched_clock() can easily (and locklessly) detect when an update is in progress, and repeat the loading of these constants when they're known not to be stable. The one caveat is that sched_clock() is not called in the middle of an update. We achieve that by disabling IRQs. Finally, if the clock rate is known at compile time, the counter to ns conversion factors can be specified, allowing sched_clock() to be tightly optimized. We ensure that these factors are correct by providing an initialization function which performs a run-time check.
