clocksource_delta() has two variants. One with a check for negative motion,
which is only selected by x86. This is a historic leftover as this function
was previously used in the time getter hot paths.
Since 135225a363 timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() has unconditional protection
against this as a by-product of the protection against 64bit math overflow.
clocksource_delta() is only used in the clocksource watchdog and in
timekeeping_advance(). The extra conditional there is not hurting anyone.
Remove the config option and unconditionally prevent negative motion of the
readout.

Since 135225a363 timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handles large offsets which
would lead to 64bit multiplication overflows correctly. It's also protected
against negative motion of the clocksource unconditionally, which was
exclusive to x86 before.
timekeeping_advance() handles large offsets already correctly.
That means the value of CONFIG_DEBUG_TIMEKEEPING which analyzed these cases
is very close to zero. Remove all of it.

The way the clockevent devices are finally stopped while a CPU is
offlining is currently chaotic. The layout being by order:
1) tick_sched_timer_dying() stops the tick and the underlying clockevent
but only for oneshot case. The periodic tick and its related
clockevent still runs.
2) tick_broadcast_offline() detaches and stops the per-cpu oneshot
broadcast and append it to the released list.
3) Some individual clockevent drivers stop the clockevents (a second time if
the tick is oneshot)
4) Once the CPU is dead, a control CPU remotely detaches and stops
(a 3rd time if oneshot mode) the CPU clockevent and adds it to the
released list.
5) The released list containing the broadcast device released on step 2)
and the remotely detached clockevent from step 4) are unregistered.
These random events can be factorized if the current clockevent is
detached and stopped by the dying CPU at the generic layer, that is
from the dying CPU:
a) Stop the tick
b) Stop/detach the underlying per-cpu oneshot broadcast clockevent
c) Stop/detach the underlying clockevent
d) Release / unregister the clockevents from b) and c)
e) Release / unregister the remaining clockevents from the dying CPU.
This part could be performed by the dying CPU
This way the drivers and the tick layer don't need to care about
clockevent operations during cpuhotplug down. This also unifies the tick
behaviour on offline CPUs between oneshot and periodic modes, avoiding
offline ticks altogether for sanity.
Adopt the simplification.

When a new clockevent device is added and replaces a previous device,
the latter is put into the released list. Then the released list is
added back.
This may look counter-intuitive but the reason is that released device
might be suitable for other uses. For example a released CPU regular
clockevent can be a better replacement for the current broadcast event.
Similarly a released broadcast clockevent can be a better replacement
for the current regular clockevent of a given CPU.

Right now the state tracking is done by two struct members:
- it_active:
A boolean which tracks armed/disarmed state
- it_signal_seq:
A sequence counter which is used to invalidate settings
and prevent rearming
Replace it_active with it_status and keep properly track about the states
in one place.
This allows to reuse it_signal_seq to track reprogramming, disarm and
delete operations in order to drop signals which are related to the state
previous of those operations.

No point in delivering a signal from the past. POSIX does not specify the
behaviour here:
- "The effect of disarming or resetting a timer with pending expiration
notifications is unspecified."
- "The disposition of pending signals for the deleted timer is unspecified."
In both cases it is reasonable to expect that pending signals are
discarded. Especially in the reprogramming case it does not make sense to
account for previous overruns or to deliver a signal for a timer which has
been disarmed.
Drop the signal as that is conistent and understandable behaviour.

timer must be reprogrammed on signal delivery.
The handling of this is racy as a long standing comment in that code
documents. It is modified with the timer lock held, but without sighand
lock being held. The actual signal delivery code checks for it under
sighand lock without holding the timer lock.
Hand the new value to send_sigqueue() as argument and store it with sighand

Updates of the timekeeper can be done by operating on the shadow timekeeper

advantage, that the sequence count write protected region is kept as small

Convert do_adjtimex() to use this scheme and take the opportunity to use a

That requires to have a separate function for updating the leap state so
that the update is protected by the sequence count. This also brings the
timekeeper and the shadow timekeeper in sync for this state, which was not
the case so far. That's not a correctness problem as the state is only used

Functions which operate on the real timekeeper, e.g. do_settimeofday(),
have error conditions. If they are hit a full timekeeping update is still
required because the already committed operations modified the timekeeper.

timekeeper_update_staged().

Updates of the timekeeper are done in two ways:
1. Updating timekeeper and afterwards memcpy()'ing the result into
shadow_timekeeper using timekeeping_update(). Used everywhere for
updates except in timekeeping_advance(); the sequence counter protected
region starts before the first change to the timekeeper is done.
2. Updating shadow_timekeeper and then memcpy()'ing the result into
timekeeper. Used only by in timekeeping_advance(); The seqence counter
protected region is only around timekeeping_update() and the memcpy for
copy from shadow to timekeeper.
The second option is fast path optimized. The sequence counter protected
region is as short as possible.
As this behaviour is mainly documented by commit messages, but not in code,
it makes the not easy timekeeping code more complicated to read.
There is no reason why updates to the timekeeper can't use the optimized
version everywhere. With this, the code will be cleaner, as code is reused
instead of duplicated.
To be able to access tk_data which contains all required information, add a
pointer to tk_data as an argument to timekeeping_update(). With that
convert the comment about holding the lock into a lockdep assert.

timekeeper_lock protects updates to struct tk_core but is not part of
struct tk_core. As long as there is only a single timekeeper, this is not a
problem. But when the timekeeper infrastructure will be reused for per ptp
clock timekeepers, timekeeper_lock needs to be part of tk_core.
Move the lock into tk_core, move initialisation of the lock and sequence
counter into timekeeping_init() and update all users of timekeeper_lock.
As this is touching all lock sites, convert them to use:
guard(raw_spinlock_irqsave)(&tk_core.lock);
instead of lock/unlock functions whenever possible.

tk_core requires shadow_timekeeper to allow timekeeping_advance() updating
without holding the timekeeper sequence count write locked. This allows the
readers to make progress up to the actual update where the shadow
timekeeper is copied over to the real timekeeper.
As long as there is only a single timekeeper, having them separate is
fine. But when the timekeeper infrastructure will be reused for per ptp

If get_clock_desc() succeeds, it calls fget() for the clockid's fd,
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
the refcount balance and release the fd related resource.
However the below commit left the error path locked behind resulting in
unbalanced locking. Check timespec64_valid_strict() before
get_clock_desc() to fix it, because the "ts" is not changed
after that.

are built on top of the timer list timers and hrtimers, the [hr]timer

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.
