time: export time information for KVM pvclock

2012-11-28T01:29:12Z

As suggested by John, export time data similarly to how its done by vsyscall support. This allows KVM to retrieve necessary information to implement vsyscall support in KVM guests. Acked-by: John Stultz Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti

time: Kill xtime_lock, replacing it with jiffies_lock

2012-11-13T19:08:23Z

Now that timekeeping is protected by its own locks, rename the xtime_lock to jifffies_lock to better describe what it protects. CC: Thomas Gleixner CC: Eric Dumazet CC: Richard Cochran Signed-off-by: John Stultz

timekeeping: Cast raw_interval to u64 to avoid shift overflow

2012-10-09T19:27:14Z

We fixed a bunch of integer overflows in timekeeping code during the 3.6 cycle. I did an audit based on that and found this potential overflow.

Pull power management updates from Rafael J Wysocki: - Improved system suspend/resume and runtime PM handling for the SH TMU, CMT and MTU2 clock event devices (also used by ARM/shmobile). - Generic PM domains framework extensions related to cpuidle support and domain objects lookup using names. - ARM/shmobile power management updates including improved support for the SH7372's A4S power domain containing the CPU core. - cpufreq changes related to AMD CPUs support from Matthew Garrett, Andre Przywara and Borislav Petkov. - cpu0 cpufreq driver from Shawn Guo. - cpufreq governor fixes related to the relaxing of limit from Michal Pecio. - OMAP cpufreq updates from Axel Lin and Richard Zhao. - cpuidle ladder governor fixes related to the disabling of states from Carsten Emde and me. - Runtime PM core updates related to the interactions with the system suspend core from Alan Stern and Kevin Hilman. - Wakeup sources modification allowing more helper functions to be called from interrupt context from John Stultz and additional diagnostic code from Todd Poynor. - System suspend error code path fix from Feng Hong. Fixed up conflicts in cpufreq/powernow-k8 that stemmed from the workqueue fixes conflicting fairly badly with the removal of support for hardware P-state chips.

time: Only do nanosecond rounding on GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD systems

2012-09-24T16:38:08Z

We only do rounding to the next nanosecond so we don't see minor 1ns inconsistencies in the vsyscall implementations. Since we're changing the vsyscall implementations to avoid this, conditionalize the rounding only to the GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD architectures.

time: Introduce new GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL

2012-09-24T16:38:08Z

Now that we moved everyone over to GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD, introduce the new declaration and config option for the new update_vsyscall method.

time: Move timekeeper structure to timekeeper_internal.h for vsyscall changes

2012-09-24T16:38:05Z

We're going to need to access the timekeeper in update_vsyscall, so make the structure available for those who need it.
