Thomas Gleixner 1c5745aa38 sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards, take #2
Redo:

  5b7dba4: sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards

which had to be reverted due to s2ram hangs:

  ca7e716: Revert "sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards"

... this time with resume restoring GTOD later in the sequence
taken into account as well.

The "timekeeping_suspended" flag is not very nice but we cannot call into
GTOD before it has been properly resumed and the scheduler will run very
early in the resume sequence.

Dave Kleikamp 5b7dba4ff8 sched_clock: prevent scd->clock from moving backwards
When sched_clock_cpu() couples the clocks between two cpus, it may
increment scd->clock beyond the GTOD tick window that __update_sched_clock()
uses to clamp the clock.  A later call to __update_sched_clock() may move
the clock back to scd->tick_gtod + TICK_NSEC, violating the clock's
monotonic property.

This patch ensures that scd->clock will not be set backward.

Peter Zijlstra 354879bb97 sched_clock: fix cpu_clock()
This patch fixes 3 issues:

a) it removes the dependency on jiffies, because jiffies are incremented
   by a single CPU, and the tick is not synchronized between CPUs. Therefore
   relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work
   as it can drift around.

   So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window.

b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking):

   delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw;
   clock += delta;

   Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear.

c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking.

the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas:

Ingo Molnar e4e4e534fa sched clock: revert various sched_clock() changes
Found an interactivity problem on a quad core test-system - simple
CPU loops would occasionally delay the system un an unacceptable way.

After much debugging with Peter Zijlstra it turned out that the problem
is caused by the string of sched_clock() changes - they caused the CPU
clock to jump backwards a bit - which confuses the scheduler arithmetics.

(which is unsigned for performance reasons)

So revert:

 # c300ba2: sched_clock: and multiplier for TSC to gtod drift
 # c0c8773: sched_clock: only update deltas with local reads.
 # af52a90: sched_clock: stop maximum check on NO HZ
 # f7cce27: sched_clock: widen the max and min time

This solves the interactivity problems.

Steven Rostedt c300ba2528 sched_clock: and multiplier for TSC to gtod drift
The sched_clock code currently tries to keep all CPU clocks of all CPUS
somewhat in sync. At every clock tick it records the gtod clock and
uses that and jiffies and the TSC to calculate a CPU clock that tries to
stay in sync with all the other CPUs.

ftrace depends heavily on this timer and it detects when this timer
"jumps".  One problem is that the TSC and the gtod also drift.
When the TSC is 0.1% faster or slower than the gtod it is very noticeable
in ftrace. To help compensate for this, I've added a multiplier that
tries to keep the CPU clock updating at the same rate as the gtod.

I've tried various ways to get it to be in sync and this ended up being
the most reliable. At every scheduler tick we calculate the new multiplier:

  multi = delta_gtod / delta_TSC

This means we perform a 64 bit divide at the tick (once a HZ). A shift
is used to handle the accuracy.

Other methods that failed due to dynamic HZ are:

(not used)  multi += (gtod - tsc) / delta_gtod
(not used)  multi += (gtod - (last_tsc + delta_tsc)) / delta_gtod

as well as other variants.

This code still allows for a slight drift between TSC and gtod, but
it keeps the damage down to a minimum.

Steven Rostedt a83bc47c33 sched_clock: record TSC after gtod
To read the gtod we need to grab the xtime lock for read. Reading the gtod
before the TSC can cause a bigger gab if the xtime lock is contended.

This patch simply reverses the order to read the TSC after the gtod.
The locking in the reading of the gtod handles any barriers one might
think is needed.

Reading the CPU clock should try to stay accurate within the CPU.
By reading the CPU clock from another CPU and updating the deltas can

Steven Rostedt 2b8a0cf489 sched_clock: fix calculation of other CPU
The algorithm to calculate the 'now' of another CPU is not correct.
At each scheduler tick, each CPU records the last sched_clock and
gtod (tick_raw and tick_gtod respectively). If the TSC is somewhat the
same in speed between two clocks the algorithm would be:

  tick_gtod1 + (now1 - tick_raw1) = tick_gtod2 + (now2 - tick_raw2)

To calculate now2 we would have:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw2 - tick_raw1) + now1

Currently the algorithm is:

  now2 = (tick_gtod1 - tick_gtod2) + (tick_raw1 - tick_raw2) + now1

This solves most of the rest of the issues I've had with timestamps in
ftace.

Steven Rostedt af52a90a14 sched_clock: stop maximum check on NO HZ
Working with ftrace I would get large jumps of 11 millisecs or more with
the clock tracer. This killed the latencing timings of ftrace and also
caused the irqoff self tests to fail.

What was happening is with NO_HZ the idle would stop the jiffy counter and
before the jiffy counter was updated the sched_clock would have a bad
delta jiffies to compare with the gtod with the maximum.

The jiffies would stop and the last sched_tick would record the last gtod.
On wakeup, the sched clock update would compare the gtod + delta jiffies
(which would be zero) and compare it to the TSC. The TSC would have
correctly (with a stable TSC) moved forward several jiffies. But because the
jiffies has not been updated yet the clock would be prevented from moving
forward because it would appear that the TSC jumped too far ahead.

The clock would then virtually stop, until the jiffies are updated. Then
the next sched clock update would see that the clock was very much behind
since the delta jiffies is now correct. This would then jump the clock
forward by several jiffies.

This caused ftrace to report several milliseconds of interrupts off
latency at every resume from NO_HZ idle.

This patch adds hooks into the nohz code to disable the checking of the
maximum clock update when nohz is in effect. It resumes the max check
when nohz has updated the jiffies again.

Steven Rostedt f7cce27f56 sched_clock: widen the max and min time
With keeping the max and min sched time within one jiffy of the gtod clock
was too tight. Just before a schedule tick the max could easily be hit, as
well as just after a schedule_tick the min could be hit. This caused the
clock to jump around by a jiffy.

This patch widens the minimum to
   last gtod + (delta_jiffies ? delta_jiffies - 1 : 0) * TICK_NSECS

and the maximum to
    last gtod + (2 + delta_jiffies) * TICK_NSECS

This keeps the minum to gtod or if one jiffy less than delta jiffies
and the maxim 2 jiffies ahead of gtod. This may cause unstable TSCs to be
a bit more sporadic, but it helps keep a clock with a stable TSC working well.

Steven Rostedt 62c43dd986 sched_clock: record from last tick
The sched_clock code tries to keep within the gtod time by one tick (jiffy).
The current code mistakenly keeps track of the delta jiffies between
updates of the clock, where the the delta is used to compare with the
number of jiffies that have past since an update of the gtod. The gtod is
updated at each schedule tick not each sched_clock update. After one
jiffy passes the clock is updated fine. But the delta is taken from the
last update so if the next update happens before the next tick the delta
jiffies used will be incorrect.

This patch changes the code to check the delta of jiffies between ticks
and not updates to match the comparison of the updates with the gtod.
