commit c950ca8c35eeb32224a63adc47e12f9e226da241 upstream.
The Allwinner A64 SoC is known[1] to have an unstable architectural
timer, which manifests itself most obviously in the time jumping forward
a multiple of 95 years[2][3]. This coincides with 2^56 cycles at a
timer frequency of 24 MHz, implying that the time went slightly backward
(and this was interpreted by the kernel as it jumping forward and
wrapping around past the epoch).
Investigation revealed instability in the low bits of CNTVCT at the
point a high bit rolls over. This leads to power-of-two cycle forward
and backward jumps. (Testing shows that forward jumps are about twice as
likely as backward jumps.) Since the counter value returns to normal
after an indeterminate read, each "jump" really consists of both a
forward and backward jump from the software perspective.
Unless the kernel is trapping CNTVCT reads, a userspace program is able
to read the register in a loop faster than it changes. A test program
running on all 4 CPU cores that reported jumps larger than 100 ms was
run for 13.6 hours and reported the following:
Count | Event
-------+---------------------------
9940 | jumped backward 699ms
268 | jumped backward 1398ms
1 | jumped backward 2097ms
16020 | jumped forward 175ms
6443 | jumped forward 699ms
2976 | jumped forward 1398ms
9 | jumped forward 356516ms
9 | jumped forward 357215ms
4 | jumped forward 714430ms
1 | jumped forward 3578440ms
This works out to a jump larger than 100 ms about every 5.5 seconds on
each CPU core.
The largest jump (almost an hour!) was the following sequence of reads:
0x0000007fffffffff → 0x00000093feffffff → 0x0000008000000000
Note that the middle bits don't necessarily all read as all zeroes or
all ones during the anomalous behavior; however the low 10 bits checked
by the function in this patch have never been observed with any other
value.
Also note that smaller jumps are much more common, with backward jumps
of 2048 (2^11) cycles observed over 400 times per second on each core.
(Of course, this is partially explained by lower bits rolling over more
frequently.) Any one of these could have caused the 95 year time skip.
Similar anomalies were observed while reading CNTPCT (after patching the
kernel to allow reads from userspace). However, the CNTPCT jumps are
much less frequent, and only small jumps were observed. The same program
as before (except now reading CNTPCT) observed after 72 hours:
Count | Event
-------+---------------------------
17 | jumped backward 699ms
52 | jumped forward 175ms
2831 | jumped forward 699ms
5 | jumped forward 1398ms
Further investigation showed that the instability in CNTPCT/CNTVCT also
affected the respective timer's TVAL register. The following values were
observed immediately after writing CNVT_TVAL to 0x10000000:
CNTVCT | CNTV_TVAL | CNTV_CVAL | CNTV_TVAL Error
--------------------+------------+--------------------+-----------------
0x000000d4a2d8bfff | 0x10003fff | 0x000000d4b2d8bfff | +0x00004000
0x000000d4a2d94000 | 0x0fffffff | 0x000000d4b2d97fff | -0x00004000
0x000000d4a2d97fff | 0x10003fff | 0x000000d4b2d97fff | +0x00004000
0x000000d4a2d9c000 | 0x0fffffff | 0x000000d4b2d9ffff | -0x00004000
The pattern of errors in CNTV_TVAL seemed to depend on exactly which
value was written to it. For example, after writing 0x10101010:
CNTVCT | CNTV_TVAL | CNTV_CVAL | CNTV_TVAL Error
--------------------+------------+--------------------+-----------------
0x000001ac3effffff | 0x1110100f | 0x000001ac4f10100f | +0x1000000
0x000001ac40000000 | 0x1010100f | 0x000001ac5110100f | -0x1000000
0x000001ac58ffffff | 0x1110100f | 0x000001ac6910100f | +0x1000000
0x000001ac66000000 | 0x1010100f | 0x000001ac7710100f | -0x1000000
0x000001ac6affffff | 0x1110100f | 0x000001ac7b10100f | +0x1000000
0x000001ac6e000000 | 0x1010100f | 0x000001ac7f10100f | -0x1000000
I was also twice able to reproduce the issue covered by Allwinner's
workaround[4], that writing to TVAL sometimes fails, and both CVAL and
TVAL are left with entirely bogus values. One was the following values:
CNTVCT | CNTV_TVAL | CNTV_CVAL
--------------------+------------+--------------------------------------
0x000000d4a2d6014c | 0x8fbd5721 | 0x000000d132935fff (615s in the past)

========================================================================
Because the CPU can read the CNTPCT/CNTVCT registers faster than they
change, performing two reads of the register and comparing the high bits
(like other workarounds) is not a workable solution. And because the
timer can jump both forward and backward, no pair of reads can
distinguish a good value from a bad one. The only way to guarantee a
good value from consecutive reads would be to read _three_ times, and
take the middle value only if the three values are 1) each unique and
2) increasing. This takes at minimum 3 counter cycles (125 ns), or more
if an anomaly is detected.
However, since there is a distinct pattern to the bad values, we can
optimize the common case (1022/1024 of the time) to a single read by
simply ignoring values that match the error pattern. This still takes no
more than 3 cycles in the worst case, and requires much less code. As an
additional safety check, we still limit the loop iteration to the number
of max-frequency (1.2 GHz) CPU cycles in three 24 MHz counter periods.
For the TVAL registers, the simple solution is to not use them. Instead,
read or write the CVAL and calculate the TVAL value in software.
Although the manufacturer is aware of at least part of the erratum[4],
there is no official name for it. For now, use the kernel-internal name
"UNKNOWN1".

commit d2f276c8d3c224d5b493c42b6cf006ae4e64fb1c upstream.
When shutting down the timer, ensure that after we have stopped the
timer any pending interrupts are cleared. This fixes a problem when
suspending, as interrupts are disabled before the timer is stopped,
so the timer interrupt may still be asserted, preventing the system
entering a low power state when the wfi is executed.

commit a5719a40aef956ba704f2aa1c7b977224d60fa96 upstream.
When a timer tick occurs and the clock is in one-shot mode, the timer
needs to be stopped to prevent it triggering subsequent interrupts.
Currently this code is in exynos4_mct_tick_clear(), but as it is
only needed when an ISR occurs move it into exynos4_mct_tick_isr(),
leaving exynos4_mct_tick_clear() just doing what its name suggests it
should.

[ Upstream commit 983a5a43ec254cd5ddf3254db80ca96e8f8bb2a4 ]
Commit 84badc5ec5fc ("ARM: dts: omap4: Move l4 child devices to probe
them with ti-sysc") moved some omap4 timers to probe with ti-sysc
interconnect target module. Turns out this broke pwm-omap-dmtimer
where we now try to reparent the clock to itself with the following:
omap_dm_timer_of_set_source: failed to set parent
With ti-sysc, we can now configure the clock sources in the dts
with assigned-clocks and assigned-clock-parents. So we should be able
to remove omap_dm_timer_of_set_source with clean-up patches later on.
But for now, let's just fix it first by checking if parent and fck
are the same and bail out of so.

[ Upstream commit 5eb73c831171115d3b4347e1e7124a5a35d8086c ]
The function of_find_node_by_path() acquires a reference to the node
returned by it and that reference needs to be dropped by its caller.
integrator_ap_timer_init_of() doesn't do that. The pri_node and the
sec_node are used as an identifier to compare against the current
node, so we can directly drop the refcount after getting the node from
the path as it is not used as pointer.
By dropping the refcount right after getting it, a single variable is
needed instead of two.
Fix this by use a single variable and drop the refcount right after
of_find_node_by_path().

commit bf287607c80f24387fedb431a346dc67f25be12c upstream.
It turned out we used to use default implementation of sched_clock()
from kernel/sched/clock.c which was as precise as 1/HZ, i.e.
by default we had 10 msec granularity of time measurement.
Now given ARC built-in timers are clocked with the same frequency as
CPU cores we may get much higher precision of time tracking.
Thus we switch to generic sched_clock which really reads ARC hardware
counters.
This is especially helpful for measuring short events.
That's what we used to have:

Add support for platforms where pit_shutdown() doesn't work because of a
quirk in the PIT emulation. On these platforms setting the counter register
to zero causes the PIT to start running again, negating the shutdown.

Currently, the aspeed MATCH1 register is updated to <current_count -
cycles> in set_next_event handler, with the assumption that COUNT
register value is preserved when the timer is disabled and it continues
decrementing after the timer is enabled. But the assumption is wrong:
RELOAD register is loaded into COUNT register when the aspeed timer is
enabled, which means the next event may be delayed because timer
interrupt won't be generated until <0xFFFFFFFF - current_count +
cycles>.
The problem can be fixed by updating RELOAD register to <cycles>, and
COUNT register will be re-loaded when the timer is enabled and interrupt
is generated when COUNT register overflows.
The test result on Facebook Backpack-CMM BMC hardware (AST2500) shows
the issue is fixed: without the patch, usleep(100) suspends the process
for several milliseconds (and sometimes even over 40 milliseconds);
after applying the fix, usleep(100) takes averagely 240 microseconds to
return under the same workload level.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This contains some major improvements to the RISC-V port, including
the necessary interrupt controller and timer support to actually make
it to userspace. Support for three devices has been added:
- the ISA-mandated timers on RISC-V systems.
- the ISA-mandated first-level interrupt controller on RISC-V
systems, which is handled as part of our core arch code because
it's very small and tightly tied to the ISA.
- SiFive's platform-level interrupt controller, which talks to the
actual devices.
In addition to these new devices, there are a handful of cleanups all
over the RISC-V tree:
- build fixes for various configurations:
* A fix to the vDSO build's makefile so it respects CFLAGS.
* The addition of __lshrti3, a libgcc derived function necessary
for some 32-bit configurations.
* !SMP && PERF_EVENTS
- Cleanups to the arch code to remove the remnants of old versions of
the drivers that were just properly submitted.
* Some dead code from the timer driver, most of which wasn't ever
even compiled.
* Cleanups of some interrupt #defines, which are now local to the
interrupt handling code.
- Fixes to ptrace(), which while not being sufficient to fully make
GDB work are at least sufficient to get simple GDB tasks to work.
- Early printk support via RISC-V's architecturally mandated SBI
console device.
- A fix to our early debug trap handler to ensure it's always
aligned.
These patches have all been through a fairly extensive review process,
but as this enables a whole pile of functionality (ie, userspace) I'm
confident we'll need to submit a few more patches. The only concrete
issues I know about are the sys_riscv_flush_icache patches, but as I
managed to screw those up on Friday I figured it'd be best to let them
bake another week.

Currently, quite a few clockevent devices have cpumask set to
cpu_all_mask which should be fine. However, cpu_possible_mask is more
accurate and if there are any other clockevent devices in the system
which have cpumask set to cpu_possible_mask, then having cpu_all_mask
may result in issues (mostly boot hang with forever loops in
clockevents_notify_released).
So, lets replace all the clockevent device cpu_all_mask to
cpu_possible_mask in order to prevent above mentioned possible issue.

read_boot_clock64() is deleted, and replaced with
read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset().
The default implementation of read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset()
provides a better fallback than the current stubs for read_boot_clock64()
that arm has with no users, so remove the old code.

Currently, arch_mem_timer cpumask is set to cpu_all_mask which should be
fine. However, cpu_possible_mask is more accurate and if there are other
clockevent source in the system which are set to cpu_possible_mask, then
having cpu_all_mask may result in issue.
E.g. on a platform with arm,sp804 timer with rating 300 and
cpu_possible_mask and this arch_mem_timer timer with rating 400 and
cpu_all_mask, tick_check_preferred may choose both preferred as the
cpumasks are not equal though they must be.
This issue was root caused incorrectly initially and a fix was merged as
commit 1332a9055801 ("tick: Prefer a lower rating device only if it's CPU
local device").

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of fixes for time(r) related issues:
- Fix a long standing conversion issue in jiffies_to_msecs() for odd
HZ values like 1024 or 1200 which resulted in returning 0 for small
jiffies values due to rounding down.
- Use the proper CONFIG symbol in the new Y2038 safe compat code for
posix-timers. Not yet a visible breakage, but this will immediately
trigger when the architecture support for the new interfaces is
merged.
- Return an error code in the STM32 clocksource driver on failure
instead of success.
- Remove the redundant and stale irq disabled check in the posix cpu
timer code. The check is at the wrong place anyway and lockdep
already covers it via the sighand lock locking coverage"

The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:
kzalloc(a * b, gfp)
with:
kcalloc(a * b, gfp)
as well as handling cases of:
kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)
with:
kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)
as it's slightly less ugly than:
kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)
This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:
kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)
though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.
Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.
The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
"This time we have a good set of changes to the core framework that do
some general cleanups, but nothing too major. The majority of the diff
goes to two SoCs, Actions Semi and Qualcomm. A brand new driver is
introduced for Actions Semi so it takes up some lines to add all the
different types, and the Qualcomm diff is there because we add support
for two SoCs and it's quite a bit of data.
Otherwise the big driver updates are on TI Davinci and Amlogic
platforms. And then the long tail of driver updates for various fixes
and stuff follows after that.
Core:
- debugfs cleanups removing error checking and an unused provider API
- Removal of a clk init typedef that isn't used
- Usage of match_string() to simplify parent string name matching
- OF clk helpers moved to their own file (linux/of_clk.h)
- Make clk warnings more readable across kernel versions
New Drivers:
- Qualcomm SDM845 GCC and Video clk controllers
- Qualcomm MSM8998 GCC
- Actions Semi S900 SoC support
- Nuvoton npcm750 microcontroller clks
- Amlogic axg AO clock controller
Removed Drivers:
- Deprecated Rockchip clk-gate driver
Updates:
- debugfs functions stopped checking return values
- Support for the MSIOF module clocks on Rensas R-Car M3-N
- Support for the new Rensas RZ/G1C and R-Car E3 SoCs
- Qualcomm GDSC, RCG, and PLL updates for clk changes in new SoCs
- Berlin and Amlogic SPDX tagging
- Usage of of_clk_get_parent_count() in more places
- Proper implementation of the CDEV1/2 clocks on Tegra20
- Allwinner H6 PRCM clock support and R40 EMAC support
- Add critical flag to meson8b's fdiv2 as temporary fixup for ethernet
- Round closest support for meson's mpll driver

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This release brings up a new platform based on the old ARM9 core: the
Nuvoton NPCM is used as a baseboard management controller, competing
with the better known ASpeed AST2xx series.
Another important change is the addition of ARMv7-A based chips in
mach-stm32. The older parts in this platform are ARMv7-M based
microcontrollers, now they are expanding to general-purpose workloads.
The other changes are the usual defconfig updates to enable additional
drivers, lesser bugfixes. The largest updates as often are the ongoing
OMAP cleanups, but we also have a number of changes for the older PXA
and davinci platforms this time.
For the Renesas shmobile/r-car platform, some new infrastructure is
needed to make the watchdog work correctly.

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
will be similar
[ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]"

Different TPM modules have different width counters which is 16-bit or 32-bit,
the counter width can be read from TPM_PARAM register bit[23:16], this patch
adds dynamic check for counter width to support both 16-bit and 32-bit TPM
modules.

According to i.MX7ULP reference manual, TPM_SC_CPWMS can ONLY be written when
counter is disabled, TPM_SC_TOF is write-1-clear, TPM_C0SC_CHF is also
write-1-clear, correct these registers initialization flow;

The ATMEL_ST config selects MFD_SYSCON, but does not depend on HAS_IOMEM.
Compile testing on architecture without HAS_IOMEM causes "unmet direct
dependencies" in Kconfig phase. Detected by "make ARCH=score allyesconfig".
Add the proper dependency to the ATMEL_ST config.

Remove metag architecture
These patches remove the metag architecture and tightly dependent
drivers from the kernel. With the 4.16 kernel the ancient gcc 4.2.4
based metag toolchain we have been using is hitting compiler bugs, so
now seems a good time to drop it altogether.

Pull "Move omap timer to drivers for 4.17" from Tony Lindgren:
This series from Keerthy and Ladislav Michl move omap dmtimer code
to drivers. As we don't want to export custom timer functions to
random drivers, we also need to update the related PWM driver to
pass the timer specific functions in platform data.
Note that this series is based on a merge of omap1 specific timer
fix and omap2+ platform data clean-up to keep things working and
make the move a bit simpler.

Invalid value silently disables use of the prescaler.
Use -1 explicitely for that purpose and error out on
invalid value.

As dmtimer no longer exports functions, make those previously
exported static (this requires few functions to be moved around
as their prototypes were deleted).
