sched/headers: Prepare to move cputime functionality from into

2017-03-02T07:42:39+00:00

Introduce a trivial, mostly empty  header
to prepare for the moving of cputime functionality out of sched.h.

Update all code that relies on these facilities.

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:30+00:00

We are going to move softlockup APIs out of , which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

 already includes .

Include the  header in the files that are going to need it.

ia64: Convert vtime to use nsec units directly

2017-02-01T08:14:02+00:00

There is no need anymore for this cputime_t midlayer. Let's use nsec
units directly.

sched/cputime: Rename vtime_account_user() to vtime_flush()

2017-01-14T08:54:13+00:00

CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y used to accumulate user time and
account it on ticks and context switches only through the
vtime_account_user() function.

Now this model has been generalized on the 3 archs for all kind of
cputime (system, irq, ...) and all the cputime flushing happens under
vtime_account_user().

So let's rename this function to better reflect its new role.

sched/cputime, ia64: Accumulate cputime and account only on tick/task switch

2017-01-14T08:54:12+00:00

Currently CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y accounts the cputime on
any context boundary: irq entry/exit, guest entry/exit, context switch,
etc...

Calling functions such as account_system_time(), account_user_time()
and such can be costly, especially if they are called on many fastpath
such as twice per IRQ. Those functions do more than just accounting to
kcpustat and task cputime. Depending on the config, some subsystems can
perform unpleasant multiplications and divisions, among other things.

So lets accumulate the cputime instead and delay the accounting on ticks
and context switches only.

sched/cputime, ia64: Fix incorrect start cputime assignment on task switch

2017-01-14T08:54:11+00:00

On task switch we must initialize the current cputime of the next task
using the value of the previous task which got freshly updated.

But we are confusing that with doing the opposite, which should result
in incorrect cputime accounting.

clocksource: Use a plain u64 instead of cycle_t

2016-12-25T10:04:12+00:00

There is no point in having an extra type for extra confusion. u64 is
unambiguous.

Conversion was done with the following coccinelle script:

@rem@
@@
-typedef u64 cycle_t;

@fix@
typedef cycle_t;
@@
-cycle_t
+u64
