/*
* CLOCKs: The POSIX standard calls for a couple of clocks and allows us
* to implement others. This structure defines the various
* clocks and allows the possibility of adding others. We
* provide an interface to add clocks to the table and expect
* the "arch" code to add at least one clock that is high
* resolution. Here we define the standard CLOCK_REALTIME as a
* 1/HZ resolution clock.
*
* RESOLUTION: Clock resolution is used to round up timer and interval
* times, NOT to report clock times, which are reported with as
* much resolution as the system can muster. In some cases this
* resolution may depend on the underlying clock hardware and
* may not be quantifiable until run time, and only then is the
* necessary code is written. The standard says we should say
* something about this issue in the documentation...
*
* FUNCTIONS: The CLOCKs structure defines possible functions to handle
* various clock functions. For clocks that use the standard
* system timer code these entries should be NULL. This will
* allow dispatch without the overhead of indirect function
* calls. CLOCKS that depend on other sources (e.g. WWV or GPS)
* must supply functions here, even if the function just returns
* ENOSYS. The standard POSIX timer management code assumes the
* following: 1.) The k_itimer struct (sched.h) is used for the
* timer. 2.) The list, it_lock, it_clock, it_id and it_pid
* fields are not modified by timer code.
*
* At this time all functions EXCEPT clock_nanosleep can be
* redirected by the CLOCKS structure. Clock_nanosleep is in
* there, but the code ignores it.
*
* Permissions: It is assumed that the clock_settime() function defined
* for each clock will take care of permission checks. Some
* clocks may be set able by any user (i.e. local process
* clocks) others not. Currently the only set able clock we
* have is CLOCK_REALTIME and its high res counter part, both of
* which we beg off on and pass to do_sys_settimeofday().

timerfd: new timerfd API This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

posix-timers: fix posix_timer_event() vs dequeue_signal() race The bug was reported and analysed by Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>, the patch is based on his and Roland's suggestions. posix_timer_event() always rewrites the pre-allocated siginfo before sending the signal. Most of the written info is the same all the time, but memset(0) is very wrong. If ->sigq is queued we can race with collect_signal() which can fail to find this siginfo looking at .si_signo, or copy_siginfo() can copy the wrong .si_code/si_tid/etc. In short, sys_timer_settime() can in fact stop the active timer, or the user can receive the siginfo with the wrong .si_xxx values. Move "memset(->info, 0)" from posix_timer_event() to alloc_posix_timer(), change send_sigqueue() to set .si_overrun = 0 when ->sigq is not queued. It would be nice to move the whole sigq->info initialization from send to create path, but this is not easy to do without uglifying timer_create() further. As Roland rightly pointed out, we need more cleanups/fixes here, see the "FIXME" comment in the patch. Hopefully this patch makes sense anyway, and it can mask the most bad implications.

posix-timers: Prevent softirq starvation by small intervals and SIG_IGN posix-timers which deliver an ignored signal are currently rearmed in the timer softirq: This is necessary because the timer needs to be delivered again when SIG_IGN is removed. This is not a problem, when the interval is reasonable. With high resolution timers enabled one might arm a posix timer with a very small interval and ignore the signal. This might lead to a softirq starvation when the interval is so small that the timer is requeued onto the softirq pending list right away. This problem was pointed out by Jan Kiszka. Thanks Jan ! The correct solution would be to stop the timer, when the signal is ignored and rearm it when SIG_IGN is removed. Unfortunately this requires modification in sigaction and involves non trivial sighand locking. It's too late in the release cycle for such a change. For now we just keep the timer running and enforce that the timer only fires every jiffie. This does not break anything as we keep the overrun counter correct. It adds a little inaccuracy to the timer_gettime() interface, but... The more complex change is necessary anyway to fix another short coming of the current implementation, which I discovered while looking at this problem: A pending signal is discarded when SIG_IGN is set. In case that a posixtimer signal is pending then it is discarded as well, but when SIG_IGN is removed later nothing rearms the timer. This is not new, it's that way since posix timers have been merged. So nothing to worry about right now. I have a working solution to fix all of this, but the impact is too large for both stable and 2.6.22. I'm going to send it out for review in the next days. This should go into 2.6.21.stable as well.

posix-timers: fix posix_timer_event() vs dequeue_signal() race The bug was reported and analysed by Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>, the patch is based on his and Roland's suggestions. posix_timer_event() always rewrites the pre-allocated siginfo before sending the signal. Most of the written info is the same all the time, but memset(0) is very wrong. If ->sigq is queued we can race with collect_signal() which can fail to find this siginfo looking at .si_signo, or copy_siginfo() can copy the wrong .si_code/si_tid/etc. In short, sys_timer_settime() can in fact stop the active timer, or the user can receive the siginfo with the wrong .si_xxx values. Move "memset(->info, 0)" from posix_timer_event() to alloc_posix_timer(), change send_sigqueue() to set .si_overrun = 0 when ->sigq is not queued. It would be nice to move the whole sigq->info initialization from send to create path, but this is not easy to do without uglifying timer_create() further. As Roland rightly pointed out, we need more cleanups/fixes here, see the "FIXME" comment in the patch. Hopefully this patch makes sense anyway, and it can mask the most bad implications.

timerfd: new timerfd API This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

hrtimer: fix *rmtp handling in hrtimer_nanosleep() Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan. hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack frame. Introduced by commit 04c227140fed77587432667a574b14736a06dd7f hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp. Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem even if nanosleep() returns 0. NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other bugs. Fixed by the next patch.
