powerpc/vdso64: Fix CLOCK_MONOTONIC inconsistencies across Y2038 2019-08-13T11:38:43+00:00 Michael Ellerman mpe@ellerman.id.au 2019-03-13T13:14:38+00:00 bb693bc07a915f22f93f4a67c09764bfbe356cd0 commit b5b4453e7912f056da1ca7572574cada32ecb60c upstream. Jakub Drnec reported: Setting the realtime clock can sometimes make the monotonic clock go back by over a hundred years. Decreasing the realtime clock across the y2k38 threshold is one reliable way to reproduce. Allegedly this can also happen just by running ntpd, I have not managed to reproduce that other than booting with rtc at >2038 and then running ntp. When this happens, anything with timers (e.g. openjdk) breaks rather badly. And included a test case (slightly edited for brevity): #define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 199309L #include <stdio.h> #include <time.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> long get_time(void) { struct timespec tp; clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &tp); return tp.tv_sec + tp.tv_nsec / 1000000000; } int main(void) { long last = get_time(); while(1) { long now = get_time(); if (now < last) { printf("clock went backwards by %ld seconds!\n", last - now); } last = now; sleep(1); } return 0; } Which when run concurrently with: # date -s 2040-1-1 # date -s 2037-1-1 Will detect the clock going backward. The root cause is that wtom_clock_sec in struct vdso_data is only a 32-bit signed value, even though we set its value to be equal to tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec which is 64-bits. Because the monotonic clock starts at zero when the system boots the wall_to_montonic.tv_sec offset is negative for current and future dates. Currently on a freshly booted system the offset will be in the vicinity of negative 1.5 billion seconds. However if the wall clock is set past the Y2038 boundary, the offset from wall to monotonic becomes less than negative 2^31, and no longer fits in 32-bits. When that value is assigned to wtom_clock_sec it is truncated and becomes positive, causing the VDSO assembly code to calculate CLOCK_MONOTONIC incorrectly. That causes CLOCK_MONOTONIC to jump ahead by ~4 billion seconds which it is not meant to do. Worse, if the time is then set back before the Y2038 boundary CLOCK_MONOTONIC will jump backward. We can fix it simply by storing the full 64-bit offset in the vdso_data, and using that in the VDSO assembly code. We also shuffle some of the fields in vdso_data to avoid creating a hole. The original commit that added the CLOCK_MONOTONIC support to the VDSO did actually use a 64-bit value for wtom_clock_sec, see commit a7f290dad32e ("[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernel") (Nov 2005). However just 3 days later it was converted to 32-bits in commit 0c37ec2aa88b ("[PATCH] powerpc: vdso fixes (take #2)"), and the bug has existed since then AFAICS.

  }

Which when run concurrently with:
 # date -s 2040-1-1
 # date -s 2037-1-1

Will detect the clock going backward.

The root cause is that wtom_clock_sec in struct vdso_data is only a
32-bit signed value, even though we set its value to be equal to
tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec which is 64-bits.

However if the wall clock is set past the Y2038 boundary, the offset
from wall to monotonic becomes less than negative 2^31, and no longer
fits in 32-bits. When that value is assigned to wtom_clock_sec it is
truncated and becomes positive, causing the VDSO assembly code to
calculate CLOCK_MONOTONIC incorrectly.

That causes CLOCK_MONOTONIC to jump ahead by ~4 billion seconds which
it is not meant to do. Worse, if the time is then set back before the
Y2038 boundary CLOCK_MONOTONIC will jump backward.

We can fix it simply by storing the full 64-bit offset in the
vdso_data, and using that in the VDSO assembly code. We also shuffle
some of the fields in vdso_data to avoid creating a hole.

The original commit that added the CLOCK_MONOTONIC support to the VDSO
did actually use a 64-bit value for wtom_clock_sec, see commit
a7f290dad32e ("[PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to
32 bits kernel") (Nov 2005). However just 3 days later it was
converted to 32-bits in commit 0c37ec2aa88b ("[PATCH] powerpc: vdso

commit 11276d5306b8e5b438a36bbff855fe792d7eaa61 upstream.

There are various problems and short-comings with the current
static_key interface:

 - static_key_{true,false}() read like a branch depending on the key
   value, instead of the actual likely/unlikely branch depending on
   init value.

 - static_key_{true,false}() are, as stated above, tied to the
   static_key init values STATIC_KEY_INIT_{TRUE,FALSE}.

 - we're limited to the 2 (out of 4) possible options that compile to
   a default NOP because that's what our arch_static_branch() assembly
   emits.

So provide a new static_key interface:

  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_TRUE(name);
  DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(name);

Which define a key of different types with an initial true/false
value.

Then allow:

   static_branch_likely()
   static_branch_unlikely()

to take a key of either type and emit the right instruction for the
case.

This means adding a second arch_static_branch_jump() assembly helper
which emits a JMP per default.

In order to determine the right instruction for the right state,
encode the branch type in the LSB of jump_entry::key.

This is the final step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

  a833581e372a ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")

... but it also allows new static key combinations that will give us
performance enhancements in the subsequent patches.

Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures 2018-10-21T07:46:11+00:00 Chris Metcalf cmetcalf@ezchip.com 2015-04-29T16:48:40+00:00 a45cee23a3cba600f23e14daeabbe9a50fd0ecde commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream. Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the generic version, which previously only supported big-endian. Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in any case is also not present for the existing BE-only implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS. Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures that didn't previously have it.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.

Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

powerpc/powernv: define a standard delay for OPAL_BUSY type retry loops 2018-10-21T07:45:20+00:00 Nicholas Piggin npiggin@gmail.com 2018-04-10T11:49:31+00:00 153da3464b0489c203e444058cfa047efa007381 commit 34dd25de9fe3f60bfdb31b473bf04b28262d0896 upstream. This is the start of an effort to tidy up and standardise all the delays. Existing loops have a range of delay/sleep periods from 1ms to 20ms, and some have no delay. They all loop forever except rtc, which times out after 10 retries, and that uses 10ms delays. So use 10ms as our standard delay. The OPAL maintainer agrees 10ms is a reasonable starting point. The idea is to use the same recipe everywhere, once this is proven to work then it will be documented as an OPAL API standard. Then both firmware and OS can agree, and if a particular call needs something else, then that can be documented with reasoning. This is not the end-all of this effort, it's just a relatively easy change that fixes some existing high latency delays. There should be provision for standardising timeouts and/or interruptible loops where possible, so non-fatal firmware errors don't cause hangs.

powerpc/64: Fix smp_wmb barrier definition use use lwsync consistently 2018-10-21T07:45:06+00:00 Nicholas Piggin npiggin@gmail.com 2018-03-22T10:41:46+00:00 b582d0925e2b8fdf0c16013afa02b6cf65cbf969 commit 0bfdf598900fd62869659f360d3387ed80eb71cf upstream. asm/barrier.h is not always included after asm/synch.h, which meant it was missing __SUBARCH_HAS_LWSYNC, so in some files smp_wmb() would be eieio when it should be lwsync. kernel/time/hrtimer.c is one case. __SUBARCH_HAS_LWSYNC is only used in one place, so just fold it in to where it's used. Previously with my small simulator config, 377 instances of eieio in the tree. After this patch there are 55.
