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

2017-03-02T07:42:34Z

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

time: Remove CONFIG_TIMER_STATS

2017-02-10T10:15:08Z

Currently CONFIG_TIMER_STATS exposes process information across namespaces: kernel/time/timer_list.c print_timer(): SEQ_printf(m, ", %s/%d", tmp, timer->start_pid); /proc/timer_list: #11: <0000000000000000>, hrtimer_wakeup, S:01, do_nanosleep, cron/2570 Given that the tracer can give the same information, this patch entirely removes CONFIG_TIMER_STATS.

posix-timers: Make them configurable

2016-11-16T08:26:35Z

Some embedded systems have no use for them. This removes about 25KB from the kernel binary size when configured out. Corresponding syscalls are routed to a stub logging the attempt to use those syscalls which should be enough of a clue if they were disabled without proper consideration. They are: timer_create, timer_gettime: timer_getoverrun, timer_settime, timer_delete, clock_adjtime, setitimer, getitimer, alarm. The clock_settime, clock_gettime, clock_getres and clock_nanosleep syscalls are replaced by simple wrappers compatible with CLOCK_REALTIME, CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_BOOTTIME only which should cover the vast majority of use cases with very little code.

timer: Move sys_alarm from timer.c to itimer.c

2016-11-16T08:26:34Z

Move the only user of alarm_setitimer to itimer.c where it is defined. This allows for making alarm_setitimer static, and dropping it from the build when __ARCH_WANT_SYS_ALARM is not defined.

timers: Fix documentation for schedule_timeout() and similar

2016-10-26T11:14:47Z

The documentation for schedule_timeout(), schedule_hrtimeout(), and schedule_hrtimeout_range() all claim that the routines couldn't possibly return early if the task state was TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. This is simply not true since wake_up_process() will cause those routines to exit early. We cannot make schedule_[hr]timeout() loop until the timeout expires if the task state is uninterruptible because we have users which rely on the existing and designed behaviour. Make the documentation match the (correct) implementation. schedule_hrtimeout() returns -EINTR even when a uninterruptible task was woken up. This might look strange, but making the return code depend on the state is too much of an effort as it would affect all the call sites. There is no value in doing so, but we spell it out clearly in the documentation.

timers: Fix usleep_range() in the context of wake_up_process()

2016-10-26T11:14:46Z

Users of usleep_range() expect that it will _never_ return in less time than the minimum passed parameter. However, nothing in the code ensures this, when the sleeping task is woken by wake_up_process() or any other mechanism which can wake a task from uninterruptible state. Neither usleep_range() nor schedule_hrtimeout_range*() have any protection against wakeups. schedule_hrtimeout_range*() is designed this way despite the fact that the API documentation does not mention it. msleep() already has code to handle this case since it will loop as long as there was still time left. usleep_range() has no such loop, add it. Presumably this problem was not detected before because usleep_range() is only used in a few places and the function is mostly used in contexts which are not exposed to wakeups of any form. An effort was made to look for users relying on the old behavior by looking for usleep_range() in the same file as wake_up_process(). No problems were found by this search, though it is conceivable that someone could have put the sleep and wakeup in two different files. An effort was made to ask several upstream maintainers if they were aware of people relying on wake_up_process() to wake up usleep_range(). No maintainers were aware of that but they were aware of many people relying on usleep_range() never returning before the minimum.
