timer_list: correct the iterator for timer_list

2013-08-29T02:26:38+00:00

Correct an issue with /proc/timer_list reported by Holger.

When reading from the proc file with a sufficiently small buffer, 2k so
not really that small, there was one could get hung trying to read the
file a chunk at a time.

The timer_list_start function failed to account for the possibility that
the offset was adjusted outside the timer_list_next.

timer_list: Convert timer list to be a proper seq_file

2013-04-17T18:51:02+00:00

When running with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/timer_list will fail
with an ENOMEM condition.  On a sufficantly large systems the total amount
of data is more then 4mb, so it won't fit into a single buffer.  The
failure can also occur on smaller systems when memory fragmentation is
high as reported by Dave Jones.

Convert /proc/timer_list to a proper seq_file with its own iterator.  This
is a little more complex given that we have to make two passes with two
separate headers.

sysrq_timer_list_show also needed to be updated to reflect the fact that
now timer_list_show only does one cpu at at time.

timer_list: Split timer_list_show_tickdevices

2013-04-17T18:51:02+00:00

Split timer_list_show_tickdevices() into the header printout and pull
the rest up to timer_list_show. This is a preparatory patch for
converting timer_list to a proper seqfile with its own iterator

nohz: Rename ts->idle_tick to ts->last_tick

2012-06-11T18:07:17+00:00

Now that idle and nohz logics are going to be independant each others,
ts->idle_tick becomes too much a biased name to describe the field that
saves the last scheduled tick on top of which we re-calculate the next
tick to schedule when the timer is restarted.

We want to reuse this even to stop the tick outside idle cases. So let's
rename it to some more generic name: ts->last_tick.

This changes a bit the timer list stat export so we need to increase its
version.

timer debug: Hide kernel addresses via %pK in /proc/timer_list

2011-02-12T13:11:56+00:00

In the continuing effort to avoid kernel addresses leaking to
unprivileged users, this patch switches to %pK for
/proc/timer_list reporting.

sched: Intoduce get_cpu_iowait_time_us()

2010-05-09T17:35:27+00:00

For the ondemand cpufreq governor, it is desired that the iowait
time is microaccounted in a similar way as idle time is.

This patch introduces the infrastructure to account and expose
this information via the get_cpu_iowait_time_us() function.

clockevents: Sanitize min_delta_ns adjustment and prevent overflows

2010-03-12T18:10:29+00:00

The current logic which handles clock events programming failures can
increase min_delta_ns unlimited and even can cause overflows.

Sanitize it by:
 - prevent zero increase when min_delta_ns == 1
 - limiting min_delta_ns to a jiffie
 - bail out if the jiffie limit is hit
 - add retries stats for /proc/timer_list so we can gather data

cpumask: avoid dereferencing struct cpumask

2009-12-17T01:13:29+00:00

struct cpumask will be undefined soon with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y,
to avoid them being declared on the stack.

cpumask_bits() does what we want here (of course, this code is crap).
