commit bcc80dec91ee745b3d66f3e48f0ec2efdea97149 upstream.

read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() assumes that the Hyper-V clock counter is
bigger than the variable hv_sched_clock_offset, which is cached during
early boot, but depending on the timing this assumption may be false
when a hibernated VM starts again (the clock counter starts from 0
again) and is resuming back (Note: hv_init_tsc_clocksource() is not
called during hibernation/resume); consequently,
read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() may return a negative integer (which is
interpreted as a huge positive integer since the return type is u64)
and new kernel messages are prefixed with huge timestamps before
read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() grows big enough (which typically takes
several seconds).

Fix the issue by saving the Hyper-V clock counter just before the
suspend, and using it to correct the hv_sched_clock_offset in
resume. This makes hv tsc page based sched_clock continuous and ensures
that post resume, it starts from where it left off during suspend.
Override x86_platform.save_sched_clock_state and
x86_platform.restore_sched_clock_state routines to correct this as soon
as possible.

Note: if Invariant TSC is available, the issue doesn't happen because
1) we don't register read_hv_sched_clock_tsc() for sched clock:
See commit e5313f1c5404 ("clocksource/drivers/hyper-v: Rework
clocksource and sched clock setup");
2) the common x86 code adjusts TSC similarly: see
__restore_processor_state() -&gt;  tsc_verify_tsc_adjust(true) and
x86_platform.restore_sched_clock_state().

[ Upstream commit 245b993d8f6c4e25f19191edfbd8080b645e12b1 ]

EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.

modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.

Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this
showed up in linux-next builds.

There are two ways to fix it:

  - Remove __init
  - Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL

I chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site,
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c is never compiled as modular.
(CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is boolean)

Pull timekeeping and timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Core:

   - Consolidation of the vDSO build infrastructure to address the
     difficulties of cross-builds for ARM64 compat vDSO libraries by
     restricting the exposure of header content to the vDSO build.

     This is achieved by splitting out header content into separate
     headers. which contain only the minimaly required information which
     is necessary to build the vDSO. These new headers are included from
     the kernel headers and the vDSO specific files.

   - Enhancements to the generic vDSO library allowing more fine grained
     control over the compiled in code, further reducing architecture
     specific storage and preparing for adopting the generic library by
     PPC.

   - Cleanup and consolidation of the exit related code in posix CPU
     timers.

   - Small cleanups and enhancements here and there

  Drivers:

   - The obligatory new drivers: Ingenic JZ47xx and X1000 TCU support

   - Correct the clock rate of PIT64b global clock

   - setup_irq() cleanup

   - Preparation for PWM and suspend support for the TI DM timer

   - Expand the fttmr010 driver to support ast2600 systems

   - The usual small fixes, enhancements and cleanups all over the
     place"

The sched clock read functions return the HV clock (100ns granularity)
without converting it to nanoseconds.

Add the missing conversion.

<title>x86/vdso: Move VDSO clocksource state tracking to callback</title>

All architectures which use the generic VDSO code have their own storage
for the VDSO clock mode. That's pointless and just requires duplicate code.

X86 abuses the function which retrieves the architecture specific clock
mode storage to mark the clocksource as used in the VDSO. That's silly
because this is invoked on every tick when the VDSO data is updated.

Move this functionality to the clocksource::enable() callback so it gets
invoked once when the clocksource is installed. This allows to make the
clock mode storage generic.

Change the Hyper-V clocksource ratings to 250, below the TSC clocksource
rating of 300.  In configurations where Hyper-V offers an InvariantTSC,
the TSC is not marked "unstable", so the TSC clocksource is available
and preferred.  With the higher rating, it will be the default.  On
older hardware and Hyper-V versions, the TSC is marked "unstable", so no
TSC clocksource is created and the selected Hyper-V clocksource will be
the default.

<title>clocksource/drivers/hyper-v: Untangle stimers and timesync from clocksources</title>

hyperv_timer.c exports hyperv_cs, which is used by stimers and the
timesync mechanism.  However, the clocksource dependency is not
needed: these mechanisms only depend on the partition reference
counter (which can be read via a MSR or via the TSC Reference Page).

Introduce the (function) pointer hv_read_reference_counter, as an
embodiment of the partition reference counter read, and export it
in place of the hyperv_cs pointer.  The latter can be removed.

This should clarify that there's no relationship between Hyper-V
stimers &amp; timesync and the Linux clocksource abstractions.  No
functional or semantic change.

<title>clocksource/drivers/hyper-v: Reserve PAGE_SIZE space for tsc page</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, the reserved size for a tsc page is 4K, which is enough for
communicating with hypervisor. However, in the case where we want to
export the tsc page to userspace (e.g. for vDSO to read the
clocksource), the tsc page should be at least PAGE_SIZE, otherwise, when
PAGE_SIZE is larger than 4K, extra kernel data will be mapped into
userspace, which means leaking kernel information.

Therefore reserve PAGE_SIZE space for tsc_pg as a preparation for the
vDSO support of ARM64 in the future. Also, while at it, replace all
reference to tsc_pg with hv_get_tsc_page() since it should be the only
interface to access tsc page.
