Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The time/timekeeping/timer folks deliver with this update:

   - Fix a reintroduced signed/unsigned issue and cleanup the whole
     signed/unsigned mess in the timekeeping core so this wont happen
     accidentaly again.

   - Add a new trace clock based on boot time

   - Prevent injection of random sleep times when PM tracing abuses the
     RTC for storage

   - Make posix timers configurable for real tiny systems

   - Add tracepoints for the alarm timer subsystem so timer based
     suspend wakeups can be instrumented

   - The usual pile of fixes and updates to core and drivers"

posix-timers: Make them configurable

2016-11-16T08:26:35+00:00

Some embedded systems have no use for them.  This removes about
25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out.

Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to
use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were
disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create,
timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete,
clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm.

The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep
syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast
majority of use cases with very little code.

ptp_clock: Allow for it to be optional

2016-11-16T08:26:34+00:00

In order to break the hard dependency between the PTP clock subsystem and
ethernet drivers capable of being clock providers, this patch provides
simple PTP stub functions to allow linkage of those drivers into the
kernel even when the PTP subsystem is configured out. Drivers must be
ready to accept NULL from ptp_clock_register() in that case.

And to make it possible for PTP to be configured out, the select statement
in those driver's Kconfig menu entries is converted to the new "imply"
statement. This way the PTP subsystem may have Kconfig dependencies of
its own, such as POSIX_TIMERS, without having to make those ethernet
drivers unavailable if POSIX timers are cconfigured out. And when support
for POSIX timers is selected again then the default config option for PTP
clock support will automatically be adjusted accordingly.

The pch_gbe driver is a bit special as it relies on extra code in
drivers/ptp/ptp_pch.c. Therefore we let the make process descend into
drivers/ptp/ even if PTP_1588_CLOCK is unselected.

ptp: Introduce a high resolution frequency adjustment method.

2016-11-10T02:19:53+00:00

The internal PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) interface limits the resolution for
frequency adjustments to one part per billion.  However, some hardware
devices allow finer adjustment, and making use of the increased resolution
improves synchronization measurably on such devices.

This patch adds an alternative method that allows finer frequency tuning
by passing the scaled ppm value to PHC drivers.  This value comes from
user space, and it has a resolution of about 0.015 ppb.  We also deprecate
the older method, anticipating its removal once existing drivers have been
converted over.

ptp: use permission-specific DEVICE_ATTR variants

2016-10-31T19:32:12+00:00

Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO for read only attributes.  This simplifies the
source code, improves readbility, and reduces the chance of
inconsistencies.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// 
@ro@
declarer name DEVICE_ATTR;
identifier x,x_show;
@@

DEVICE_ATTR(x, \(0444\|S_IRUGO\), x_show, NULL);

ptp: Fix resource leak in case of error

2016-10-04T01:54:10+00:00

A call to 'ida_simple_remove()' is missing in the error handling path.

This as been spotted with the following coccinelle script which tries to
detect missing 'ida_simple_remove()' call in error handling paths.

ptp: ixp46x: remove NO_IRQ handling

2016-09-06T23:57:02+00:00

gpio_to_irq does not return NO_IRQ but instead returns a negative
error code on failure. Returning NO_IRQ from the function has no
negative effects as we only compare the result to the expected
interrupt number, but it's better to return a proper failure
code for consistency, and we should remove NO_IRQ from the kernel
entirely.

ptp: use memdup_user().

Use memdup_user to duplicate a memory region from user-space to
kernel-space, instead of open coding using kmalloc & copy_from_user.
