Since commit d689fe222 (NOHZ: Check for nohz active instead of nohz
enabled) the tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz() function returns because it
checks for the tick_nohz_active flag. This can't be set, because the

tick-sched: Don't call update_wall_time() when delta is lesser than tick_period 2014-04-15T18:26:45+00:00 Viresh Kumar viresh.kumar@linaro.org 2014-04-15T05:24:40+00:00 03e6bdc5c4d0fc166bfd5d3cf749a5a0c1b5b1bd In tick_do_update_jiffies64() we are processing ticks only if delta is greater than tick_period. This is what we are supposed to do here and it broke a bit with this patch: commit 47a1b796 (tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock) With above patch, we might end up calling update_wall_time() even if delta is found to be smaller that tick_period.

time: Revert to calling clock_was_set_delayed() while in irq context 2014-03-28T07:07:07+00:00 John Stultz john.stultz@linaro.org 2014-03-27T23:30:49+00:00 cab5e127eef040399902caa8e1510795583fa03a In commit 47a1b796306356f35 ("tick/timekeeping: Call update_wall_time outside the jiffies lock"), we moved to calling clock_was_set() due to the fact that we were no longer holding the timekeeping or jiffies lock. However, there is still the problem that clock_was_set() triggers an IPI, which cannot be done from the timer's hard irq context, and will generate WARN_ON warnings. Apparently in my earlier testing, I'm guessing I didn't bump the dmesg log level, so I somehow missed the WARN_ONs. Thus we need to revert back to calling clock_was_set_delayed().
