timer_list: Guard procfs specific code

2019-06-22T22:08:52+00:00

With CONFIG_PROC_FS=n the following warning is emitted:

kernel/time/timer_list.c:361:36: warning: unused variable
'timer_list_sops' [-Wunused-const-variable]
   static const struct seq_operations timer_list_sops = {

Add #ifdef guard around procfs specific code.

"For licencing details see kernel-base/COPYING" and similar license
references have no value over the SPDX identifier. Remove them.

time: Add SPDX license identifiers

2018-11-23T10:51:20+00:00

Update the time(r) core files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the
full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Philippe Ombredanne, Kate
Stewart and myself. The data has been created with two independent license
scanners and manual inspection.

The following files do not contain any direct license information and have
been omitted from the big initial SPDX changes:

  timeconst.bc: The .bc files were not touched
  time.c, timer.c, timekeeping.c: Licence was deduced from EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

As those files do not contain direct license references they fall under the
project license, i.e. GPL V2 only.

Merge branch 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

2018-06-05T03:27:54+00:00

Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Core infrastucture work for Y2038 to address the COMPAT interfaces:

     + Add a new Y2038 safe __kernel_timespec and use it in the core
       code

     + Introduce config switches which allow to control the various
       compat mechanisms

     + Use the new config switch in the posix timer code to control the
       32bit compat syscall implementation.

 - Prevent bogus selection of CPU local clocksources which causes an
   endless reselection loop

 - Remove the extra kthread in the clocksource code which has no value
   and just adds another level of indirection

 - The usual bunch of trivial updates, cleanups and fixlets all over the
   place

 - More SPDX conversions

proc: introduce proc_create_seq_private

2018-05-16T05:23:35+00:00

Variant of proc_create_data that directly take a struct seq_operations
argument + a private state size and drastically reduces the boilerplate
code in the callers.

All trivial callers converted over.

sysrq: Reset the watchdog timers while displaying high-resolution timers

2017-03-23T19:46:53+00:00

On systems with a large number of CPUs, running sysrq- can cause
watchdog timeouts.  There are two slow sections of code in the sysrq-
path in timer_list.c.

1. print_active_timers() - This function is called by print_cpu() and
   contains a slow goto loop.  On a machine with hundreds of CPUs, this
   loop took approximately 100ms for the first CPU in a NUMA node.
   (Subsequent CPUs in the same node ran much quicker.)  The total time
   to print all of the CPUs is ultimately long enough to trigger the
   soft lockup watchdog.

2. print_tickdevice() - This function outputs a large amount of textual
   information.  This function also took approximately 100ms per CPU.

Since sysrq- is not a performance critical path, there should be no
harm in touching the nmi watchdog in both slow sections above.  Touching
it in just one location was insufficient on systems with hundreds of
CPUs as occasional timeouts were still observed during testing.

This issue was observed on an Oracle T7 machine with 128 CPUs, but I
anticipate it may affect other systems with similarly large numbers of
CPUs.
