commit f5807b0606 upstream.
Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

[ Upstream commit d16317de9b ]
The read side of seqcount_latch consists of:
do {
seq = raw_read_seqcount_latch(&latch->seq);
...
} while (read_seqcount_latch_retry(&latch->seq, seq));
which is asymmetric in the raw_ department, and sure enough,
read_seqcount_latch_retry() includes (explicit) instrumentation where
raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not.
This inconsistency becomes a problem when trying to use it from
noinstr code. As such, fix it by renaming and re-implementing
raw_read_seqcount_latch_retry() without the instrumentation.
Specifically the instrumentation in question is kcsan_atomic_next(0)
in do___read_seqcount_retry(). Loosing this annotation is not a
problem because raw_read_seqcount_latch() does not pass through
kcsan_atomic_next(KCSAN_SEQLOCK_REGION_MAX).

and get the clk->rwsem read lock, so the error path should release
the lock to make the lock balance and fput the clockid's fd to make

However the below commit left the error path locked behind resulting in
unbalanced locking. Check timespec64_valid_strict() before

commit d8794ac20a upstream.
As Andrew pointed out, it will make sense that the PTP core
checked timespec64 struct's tv_sec and tv_nsec range before calling
ptp->info->settime64().
As the man manual of clock_settime() said, if tp.tv_sec is negative or
tp.tv_nsec is outside the range [0..999,999,999], it should return EINVAL,
which include dynamic clocks which handles PTP clock, and the condition is
consistent with timespec64_valid(). As Thomas suggested, timespec64_valid()
only check the timespec is valid, but not ensure that the time is
in a valid range, so check it ahead using timespec64_valid_strict()
in pc_clock_settime() and return -EINVAL if not valid.
There are some drivers that use tp->tv_sec and tp->tv_nsec directly to
write registers without validity checks and assume that the higher layer
has checked it, which is dangerous and will benefit from this, such as
hclge_ptp_settime(), igb_ptp_settime_i210(), _rcar_gen4_ptp_settime(),
and some drivers can remove the checks of itself.

Kernel timekeeping is designed to keep the change in cycles (since the last
timer interrupt) below max_cycles, which prevents multiplication overflow
when converting cycles to nanoseconds. However, if timer interrupts stop,
the clocksource_cyc2ns() calculation will eventually overflow.
Add protection against that. Simplify by folding together
clocksource_delta() and clocksource_cyc2ns() into cycles_to_nsec_safe().
Check against max_cycles, falling back to a slower higher precision

[ Upstream commit 8ce8849dd1 ]
posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the
cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation.
This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by
one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the
starting point.
But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out
lockless, which leads to the following problem:
CPU0 CPU1
posix_timer_add()
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
lock(hash_lock);
... posix_timer_add()
if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0)
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
sig->posix_timer_id = 0;
So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break
never happens because the condition can never be true:
if (sig->posix_timer_id == start)
break;
While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is
huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of
KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness.
Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock.

clocksource: Switched to clocksource hpet
The reason is that for platform with a large number of CPUs, there are
sporadic big or huge read latencies while reading the watchog/clocksource
during boot or when system is under stress work load, and the frequency and
maximum value of the latency goes up with the number of online CPUs.
The cCurrent code already has logic to detect and filter such high latency
case by reading the watchdog twice and checking the two deltas. Due to the
randomness of the latency, there is a low probabilty that the first delta
(latency) is big, but the second delta is small and looks valid. The
watchdog code retries the readouts by default twice, which is not
necessarily sufficient for systems with a large number of CPUs.
There is a command line parameter 'max_cswd_read_retries' which allows to
increase the number of retries, but that's not user friendly as it needs to
be tweaked per system. As the number of required retries is proportional to
the number of online CPUs, this parameter can be calculated at runtime.
Scale and enlarge the number of retries according to the number of online
CPUs and remove the command line parameter completely.

commit f7d43dd206 upstream.
Running the LTP hotplug stress test on a aarch64 machine results in
rcu_sched stall warnings when the broadcast hrtimer was owned by the
un-plugged CPU. The issue is the following:
CPU1 (owns the broadcast hrtimer) CPU2
tick_broadcast_enter()
// shutdown local timer device
broadcast_shutdown_local()
...
tick_broadcast_exit()
clockevents_switch_state(dev, CLOCK_EVT_STATE_ONESHOT)
// timer device is not programmed
cpumask_set_cpu(cpu, tick_broadcast_force_mask)
initiates offlining of CPU1

* send broadcast IPI anymore
*/

// move broadcast hrtimer to this CPU
clockevents_program_event()
bc_set_next()
hrtimer_start()
/*
* timer device is not programmed
* because only the first expiring
* timer will trigger clockevent
* device reprogramming
*/
What happens is that CPU2 exits broadcast mode with force bit set, then the
local timer device is not reprogrammed and CPU2 expects to receive the
expired event by the broadcast IPI. But this does not happen because CPU1
is offlined by CPU2. CPU switches the clockevent device to ONESHOT state,
but does not reprogram the device.
The subsequent reprogramming of the hrtimer broadcast device does not
program the clockevent device of CPU2 either because the pending expiry
time is already in the past and the CPU expects the event to be delivered.
As a consequence all CPUs which wait for a broadcast event to be delivered
are stuck forever.
Fix this issue by reprogramming the local timer device if the broadcast
force bit of the CPU is set so that the broadcast hrtimer is delivered.

[ Upstream commit 14274d0bd3 ]
So far, get_device_system_crosststamp() unconditionally passes
system_counterval.cycles to timekeeping_cycles_to_ns(). But when
interpolating system time (do_interp == true), system_counterval.cycles is
before tkr_mono.cycle_last, contrary to the timekeeping_cycles_to_ns()
expectations.
On x86, CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_VALIDATE_LAST_CYCLE will mitigate on
interpolating, setting delta to 0. With delta == 0, xtstamp->sys_monoraw
and xtstamp->sys_realtime are then set to the last update time, as
implicitly expected by adjust_historical_crosststamp(). On other
architectures, the resulting nonsense xtstamp->sys_monoraw and
xtstamp->sys_realtime corrupt the xtstamp (ts) adjustment in
adjust_historical_crosststamp().
Fix this by deriving xtstamp->sys_monoraw and xtstamp->sys_realtime from
the last update time when interpolating, by using the local variable
"cycles". The local variable already has the right value when
interpolating, unlike system_counterval.cycles.

[ Upstream commit 87a4113088 ]
The cycle_between() helper checks if parameter test is in the open interval
(before, after). Colloquially speaking, this also applies to the counter
wrap-around special case before > after. get_device_system_crosststamp()
currently uses cycle_between() at the first call site to decide whether to
interpolate for older counter readings.
get_device_system_crosststamp() has the following problem with
cycle_between() testing against an open interval: Assume that, by chance,
cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last (in the following, "cycle_last" for
brevity). Then, cycle_between() at the first call site, with effective
argument values cycle_between(cycle_last, cycles, now), returns false,
enabling interpolation. During interpolation,
get_device_system_crosststamp() will then call cycle_between() at the
second call site (if a history_begin was supplied). The effective argument
values are cycle_between(history_begin->cycles, cycles, cycles), since
system_counterval.cycles == interval_start == cycles, per the assumption.
Due to the test against the open interval, cycle_between() returns false
again. This causes get_device_system_crosststamp() to return -EINVAL.
This failure should be avoided, since get_device_system_crosststamp() works
both when cycles follows cycle_last (no interpolation), and when cycles
precedes cycle_last (interpolation). For the case cycles == cycle_last,
interpolation is actually unneeded.
Fix this by changing cycle_between() into timestamp_in_interval(), which
now checks against the closed interval, rather than the open interval.
This changes the get_device_system_crosststamp() behavior for three corner
cases:
1. Bypass interpolation in the case cycles == tk->tkr_mono.cycle_last,
fixing the problem described above.
2. At the first timestamp_in_interval() call site, cycles == now no longer
causes failure.
3. At the second timestamp_in_interval() call site, history_begin->cycles
== system_counterval.cycles no longer causes failure.
adjust_historical_crosststamp() also works for this corner case,
where partial_history_cycles == total_history_cycles.
These behavioral changes should not cause any problems.

Marking clocksource 'tsc' as unstable because the skew is too large:
clocksource: 'hpet' wd_nsec: 14523447520
clocksource: 'tsc' cs_nsec: 14524115132
The measured clocksource skew - the absolute difference between cs_nsec
and wd_nsec - was 668 microseconds:
cs_nsec - wd_nsec = 14524115132 - 14523447520 = 667612
The kernel used 200 microseconds for the uncertainty_margin of both the
clocksource and watchdog, resulting in a threshold of 400 microseconds (the
md variable). Both the cs_nsec and the wd_nsec value indicate that the
readout interval was circa 14.5 seconds. The observed behaviour is that
watchdog checks failed for large readout intervals on 8 NUMA node
machines. This indicates that the size of the skew was directly proportinal
to the length of the readout interval on those machines. The measured
clocksource skew, 668 microseconds, was evaluated against a threshold (the
md variable) that is suited for readout intervals of roughly
WATCHDOG_INTERVAL, i.e. HZ >> 1, which is 0.5 second.
The intention of 2e27e793e2 ("clocksource: Reduce clocksource-skew
threshold") was to tighten the threshold for evaluating skew and set the
lower bound for the uncertainty_margin of clocksources to twice
WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW. Later in c37e85c135 ("clocksource: Loosen clocksource
watchdog constraints"), the WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW constant was increased to
125 microseconds to fit the limit of NTP, which is able to use a
clocksource that suffers from up to 500 microseconds of skew per second.
Both the TSC and the HPET use default uncertainty_margin. When the
readout interval gets stretched the default uncertainty_margin is no
longer a suitable lower bound for evaluating skew - it imposes a limit
that is far stricter than the skew with which NTP can deal.
The root causes of the skew being directly proportinal to the length of
the readout interval are:
* the inaccuracy of the shift/mult pairs of clocksources and the watchdog
* the conversion to nanoseconds is imprecise for large readout intervals
Prevent this by skipping the current watchdog check if the readout
interval exceeds 2 * WATCHDOG_INTERVAL. Considering the maximum readout
interval of 2 * WATCHDOG_INTERVAL, the current default uncertainty margin
(of the TSC and HPET) corresponds to a limit on clocksource skew of 250
ppm (microseconds of skew per second). To keep the limit imposed by NTP
(500 microseconds of skew per second) for all possible readout intervals,
the margins would have to be scaled so that the threshold value is
proportional to the length of the actual readout interval.
As for why the readout interval may get stretched: Since the watchdog is
executed in softirq context the expiration of the watchdog timer can get
severely delayed on account of a ksoftirqd thread not getting to run in a
timely manner. Surely, a system with such belated softirq execution is not
working well and the scheduling issue should be looked into but the
clocksource watchdog should be able to deal with it accordingly.

commit dad6a09f31 upstream.
The hrtimers migration on CPU-down hotplug process has been moved
earlier, before the CPU actually goes to die. This leaves a small window
of opportunity to queue an hrtimer in a blind spot, leaving it ignored.
For example a practical case has been reported with RCU waking up a
SCHED_FIFO task right before the CPUHP_AP_IDLE_DEAD stage, queuing that
way a sched/rt timer to the local offline CPU.
Make sure such situations never go unnoticed and warn when that happens.

When offlining and onlining CPUs the overall reported idle and iowait

cpu0 81 0 117 114929 33 3 4 18 0 0
Reason for this is that get_idle_time() in fs/proc/stat.c has different
sources for both values depending on if a CPU is online or offline:
- if a CPU is online the values may be taken from its per cpu
tick_cpu_sched structure
- if a CPU is offline the values are taken from its per cpu cpustat
structure
The problem is that the per cpu tick_cpu_sched structure is set to zero on
CPU offline. See tick_cancel_sched_timer() in kernel/time/tick-sched.c.
Therefore when a CPU is brought offline and online afterwards both its idle
and iowait sleeptime will be zero, causing a jump backward in total system
idle and iowait sleeptime. In a similar way if a CPU is then brought
offline again the total idle and iowait sleeptimes will jump forward.
It looks like this behavior was introduced with commit 4b0c0f294f
("tick: Cleanup NOHZ per cpu data on cpu down").
This was only noticed now on s390, since we switched to generic idle time
reporting with commit be76ea6144 ("s390/idle: remove arch_cpu_idle_time()
and corresponding code").
Fix this by preserving the values of idle_sleeptime and iowait_sleeptime
members of the per-cpu tick_sched structure on CPU hotplug.

2b8272ff4a ("cpu/hotplug: Prevent self deadlock on CPU hot-unplug")
solved the straight forward CPU hotplug deadlock vs. the scheduler
bandwidth timer. Yu discovered a more involved variant where a task which
has a bandwidth timer started on the outgoing CPU holds a lock and then
gets throttled. If the lock required by one of the CPU hotplug callbacks
the hotplug operation deadlocks because the unthrottling timer event is not
handled on the dying CPU and can only be recovered once the control CPU
reaches the hotplug state which pulls the pending hrtimers from the dead
CPU.
Solve this by pushing the hrtimers away from the dying CPU in the dying
callbacks. Nothing can queue a hrtimer on the dying CPU at that point because
all other CPUs spin in stop_machine() with interrupts disabled and once the
operation is finished the CPU is marked offline.

[ Upstream commit 96c1fa04f0 ]
In commit 0345691b24 ("tick/rcu: Stop allowing RCU_SOFTIRQ in idle") the
new function report_idle_softirq() was created by breaking code out of the
existing can_stop_idle_tick() for kernels v5.18 and newer.
In doing so, the code essentially went from a one conditional:
if (a && b && c)
warn();
to a three conditional:
if (!a)
return;
if (!b)
return;
if (!c)
return;
warn();
But that conversion got the condition for the RT specific
local_bh_blocked() wrong. The original condition was:
!local_bh_blocked()
but the conversion failed to negate it so it ended up as:
if (!local_bh_blocked())
return false;
This issue lay dormant until another fixup for the same commit was added
in commit a7e282c777 ("tick/rcu: Fix bogus ratelimit condition").
This commit realized the ratelimit was essentially set to zero instead
of ten, and hence *no* softirq pending messages would ever be issued.
Once this commit was backported via linux-stable, both the v6.1 and v6.4
preempt-rt kernels started printing out 10 instances of this at boot:
NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #80!!!
Remove the negation and return when local_bh_blocked() evaluates to true to
bring the correct behaviour back.

commit 13bb06f8dd upstream.
The tick period is aligned very early while the first clock_event_device is

later to one-shot mode if possible.
The next wake-up event is programmed based on the aligned value
(tick_next_period) but the delta value, that is used to program the
clock_event_device, is computed based on ktime_get().
With the subtracted offset, the device fires earlier than the exact time
frame. With a large enough offset the system programs the timer for the
next wake-up and the remaining time left is too small to make any boot
progress. The system hangs.
Move the alignment later to the setup of tick_sched timer. At this point
the system switches to oneshot mode and a high resolution clocksource is
available. At this point it is safe to align tick_next_period because
ktime_get() will now return accurate (not jiffies based) time.

[ Upstream commit f9d36cf445 ]
When a tick broadcast clockevent device is initialized for one shot mode
then tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot() OR's the periodic broadcast mode
cpumask into the oneshot broadcast cpumask.
This is required when switching from periodic broadcast mode to oneshot
broadcast mode to ensure that CPUs which are waiting for periodic
broadcast are woken up on the next tick.
But it is subtly broken, when an active broadcast device is replaced and
the system is already in oneshot (NOHZ/HIGHRES) mode. Victor observed
this and debugged the issue.
Then the OR of the periodic broadcast CPU mask is wrong as the periodic
cpumask bits are sticky after tick_broadcast_enable() set it for a CPU
unless explicitly cleared via tick_broadcast_disable().
That means that this sets all other CPUs which have tick broadcasting
enabled at that point unconditionally in the oneshot broadcast mask.
If the affected CPUs were already idle and had their bits set in the
oneshot broadcast mask then this does no harm. But for non idle CPUs
which were not set this corrupts their state.
On their next invocation of tick_broadcast_enable() they observe the bit
set, which indicates that the broadcast for the CPU is already set up.
As a consequence they fail to update the broadcast event even if their
earliest expiring timer is before the actually programmed broadcast
event.
If the programmed broadcast event is far in the future, then this can
cause stalls or trigger the hung task detector.
Avoid this by telling tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot() explicitly whether
this is the initial switch over from periodic to oneshot broadcast which
must take the periodic broadcast mask into account. In the case of
initialization of a replacement device this prevents that the broadcast
oneshot mask is modified.
There is a second problem with broadcast device replacement in this
function. The broadcast device is only armed when the previous state of
the device was periodic.
That is correct for the switch from periodic broadcast mode to oneshot
broadcast mode as the underlying broadcast device could operate in
oneshot state already due to lack of periodic state in hardware. In that
case it is already armed to expire at the next tick.
For the replacement case this is wrong as the device is in shutdown
state. That means that any already pending broadcast event will not be
armed.
This went unnoticed because any CPU which goes idle will observe that
the broadcast device has an expiry time of KTIME_MAX and therefore any
CPUs next timer event will be earlier and cause a reprogramming of the
broadcast device. But that does not guarantee that the events of the
CPUs which were already in idle are delivered on time.
Fix this by arming the newly installed device for an immediate event
which will reevaluate the per CPU expiry times and reprogram the
broadcast device accordingly. This is simpler than caching the last
expiry time in yet another place or saving it before the device exchange
and handing it down to the setup function. Replacement of broadcast
devices is not a frequent operation and usually happens once somewhere
late in the boot process.

[ Upstream commit e9523a0d81 ]
With HIGHRES enabled tick_sched_timer() is programmed every jiffy to
expire the timer_list timers. This timer is programmed accurate in
respect to CLOCK_MONOTONIC so that 0 seconds and nanoseconds is the
first tick and the next one is 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms later. For HZ=250 it is
every 4 ms and so based on the current time the next tick can be
computed.
This accuracy broke since the commit mentioned below because the jiffy
based clocksource is initialized with higher accuracy in
read_persistent_wall_and_boot_offset(). This higher accuracy is
inherited during the setup in tick_setup_device(). The timer still fires
every 4ms with HZ=250 but timer is no longer aligned with
CLOCK_MONOTONIC with 0 as it origin but has an offset in the us/ns part
of the timestamp. The offset differs with every boot and makes it
impossible for user land to align with the tick.
Align the tick period with CLOCK_MONOTONIC ensuring that it is always a
multiple of 1000/CONFIG_HZ ms.

commit f7abf14f00 upstream.
For some unknown reason the introduction of the timer_wait_running callback
missed to fixup posix CPU timers, which went unnoticed for almost four years.
Marco reported recently that the WARN_ON() in timer_wait_running()
triggers with a posix CPU timer test case.
Posix CPU timers have two execution models for expiring timers depending on
CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK:
1) If not enabled, the expiry happens in hard interrupt context so
spin waiting on the remote CPU is reasonably time bound.
Implement an empty stub function for that case.
2) If enabled, the expiry happens in task work before returning to user
space or guest mode. The expired timers are marked as firing and moved
from the timer queue to a local list head with sighand lock held. Once
the timers are moved, sighand lock is dropped and the expiry happens in
fully preemptible context. That means the expiring task can be scheduled
out, migrated, interrupted etc. So spin waiting on it is more than
suboptimal.
The timer wheel has a timer_wait_running() mechanism for RT, which uses
a per CPU timer-base expiry lock which is held by the expiry code and the
task waiting for the timer function to complete blocks on that lock.
This does not work in the same way for posix CPU timers as there is no
timer base and expiry for process wide timers can run on any task
belonging to that process, but the concept of waiting on an expiry lock
can be used too in a slightly different way:
- Add a mutex to struct posix_cputimers_work. This struct is per task
and used to schedule the expiry task work from the timer interrupt.
- Add a task_struct pointer to struct cpu_timer which is used to store
a the task which runs the expiry. That's filled in when the task
moves the expired timers to the local expiry list. That's not
affecting the size of the k_itimer union as there are bigger union
members already
- Let the task take the expiry mutex around the expiry function
- Let the waiter acquire a task reference with rcu_read_lock() held and
block on the expiry mutex
This avoids spin-waiting on a task which might not even be on a CPU and
works nicely for RT too.

This can be reproduced by running memory intensive 'stream' tests,
or some of the stress-ng subcases such as 'ioport'.
The reason for these issues is the when system is under heavy load, the
read latency of the clocksources can be very high. Even lightweight TSC
reads can show high latencies, and latencies are much worse for external
clocksources such as HPET or the APIC PM timer. These latencies can
result in false-positive clocksource-unstable determinations.
These issues were initially reported by a customer running on a production
system, and this problem was reproduced on several generations of Xeon
servers, especially when running the stress-ng test. These Xeon servers
were not production systems, but they did have the latest steppings
and firmware.
Given that the clocksource watchdog is a continual diagnostic check with
frequency of twice a second, there is no need to rush it when the system
is under heavy load. Therefore, when high clocksource read latencies
are detected, suspend the watchdog timer for 5 minutes.

[ Upstream commit 9f76d59173 ]
The nanosleep syscalls use the restart_block mechanism, with a quirk:
The `type` and `rmtp`/`compat_rmtp` fields are set up unconditionally on
syscall entry, while the rest of the restart_block is only set up in the
unlikely case that the syscall is actually interrupted by a signal (or
pseudo-signal) that doesn't have a signal handler.
If the restart_block was set up by a previous syscall (futex(...,
FUTEX_WAIT, ...) or poll()) and hasn't been invalidated somehow since then,
this will clobber some of the union fields used by futex_wait_restart() and
do_restart_poll().
If userspace afterwards wrongly calls the restart_syscall syscall,
futex_wait_restart()/do_restart_poll() will read struct fields that have
been clobbered.
This doesn't actually lead to anything particularly interesting because
none of the union fields contain trusted kernel data, and
futex(..., FUTEX_WAIT, ...) and poll() aren't syscalls where it makes much
sense to apply seccomp filters to their arguments.
So the current consequences are just of the "if userspace does bad stuff,
it can damage itself, and that's not a problem" flavor.
But still, it seems like a hazard for future developers, so invalidate the
restart_block when partly setting it up in the nanosleep syscalls.

commit d125d1349a upstream.
syzbot reported a RCU stall which is caused by setting up an alarmtimer
with a very small interval and ignoring the signal. The reproducer arms the
alarm timer with a relative expiry of 8ns and an interval of 9ns. Not a
problem per se, but that's an issue when the signal is ignored because then
the timer is immediately rearmed because there is no way to delay that
rearming to the signal delivery path. See posix_timer_fn() and commit
58229a1899 ("posix-timers: Prevent softirq starvation by small intervals
and SIG_IGN") for details.
The reproducer does not set SIG_IGN explicitely, but it sets up the timers
signal with SIGCONT. That has the same effect as explicitely setting
SIG_IGN for a signal as SIGCONT is ignored if there is no handler set and
the task is not ptraced.
The log clearly shows that:

It works because the tasks are traced and therefore the signal is queued so
the tracer can see it, which delays the restart of the timer to the signal
delivery path. But then the tracer is killed:

posix_timer_fn() prevents that by checking whether the interval for
timers which have the signal ignored is smaller than a jiffie and
artifically delay it by shifting the next expiry out by a jiffie. That's
accurate vs. the overrun accounting, but slightly inaccurate
vs. timer_gettimer(2).
The comment in that function says what needs to be done and there was a fix
available for the regular userspace induced SIG_IGN mechanism, but that did
not work due to the implicit ignore for SIGCONT and similar signals. This
needs to be worked on, but for now the only available workaround is to do
exactly what posix_timer_fn() does:
Increase the interval of self-rearming timers, which have their signal
ignored, to at least a jiffie.
Interestingly this has been fixed before via commit ff86bf0c65
("alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals") already, but that fix got
lost in a later rework.

Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler
in general.
By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is
ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake
up early, as is currently possible.
As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up
two PF_flags (yay!).
Specifically; the current scheme works a little like:
freezer_do_not_count();
schedule();
freezer_count();
And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer()
through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer
considers it frozen and continues.
However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count()
stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run
before its time.
That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel
threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace
etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible
for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back.
This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9)
where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run.
As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add
the following state transitions:
TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN
__TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN
The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL
(IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state
is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer
causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is
lost).
The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since
their canonical state is in ->jobctl.
With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are
free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

In ns_to_kernel_old_timeval() definition, the function argument is defined
with const identifier in kernel/time/time.c, but the prototype in
include/linux/time32.h looks different.
- The function is defined in kernel/time/time.c as below:
struct __kernel_old_timeval ns_to_kernel_old_timeval(const s64 nsec)
- The function is decalared in include/linux/time32.h as below:
extern struct __kernel_old_timeval ns_to_kernel_old_timeval(s64 nsec);
Because the variable of arithmethic types isn't modified in the calling scope,
there's no need to mark arguments as const, which was already mentioned during
review (Link[1) of the original patch.
Likewise remove the "const" keyword in both definition and declaration of
ns_to_timespec64() as requested by Arnd (Link[2]).
