Now that nothing inflates tick_length beyond tick_length_base (the
adjtime path was converted to use time_offset in the previous commit),
the two fields are always equal.
Remove tick_length_base and keep tick_length as the single field.
Remove the per-second reset and the delta update in
ntp_update_frequency() since there is no separate base to track.
No functional change intended.

time_offset (the exponential PLL phase slew) and time_adjust (the
linear adjtime() slew) can be asked to move the clock in opposite
directions. second_overflow() folds only their *net* into the per-tick
skew_delta, so the cancelling overlap would never be drained from
either tracker by the per-tick code — and if they cancel exactly,
skew_delta is zero and neither converges at all.
Arguably we could just let one of them entirely cancel out the other
immediately, but that would be a change in userspace-visible behaviour.
Instead, preserve the existing behaviour by calculating the "conflict"
portion between the opposing skew each second, and transferring that
amount directly from one tracker to the other.

The legacy adjtime() slew (ADJ_OFFSET_SINGLESHOT) was the last user of
tick_length != tick_length_base: it slewed the clock by inflating
tick_length directly, which delivered the correction imprecisely (e.g.
delivering only 4997.5µs when asked for a 5ms skew).
Deliver it accurately through the same per-tick mechanism that is now
used for time_offset, allowing it to contribute to skew_delta and thus
drive the delivery through ntp_error and mult selection.
To allow for accurate accounting, store the sub-microsecond part of
time_adjust is separately, while keeping time_adjust in microseconds
as that's the external API.

Currently, the phase offset of time_offset and time_adjust is delivered
by adjusting tick_length in second_overflow(), and immediately draining
time_offset/time_adjust by the amount that the tick_length adjustment is
*estimated* to cause. This is fairly approximate, in part because it is
not always correct to assume that precisely NTP_INTERVAL_FREQ ticks will
occur between one call to second_overflow() and the next. It could also
over and under-run in the final second of delivery.
Instead of inflating tick_length, transfer the intended skew directly
into ntp_error each tick to achieve the desired rate.
In second_overflow(), calculate skew_delta which is the per-tick slew
rate, in the same units as time_offset: (ns << NTP_SCALE_SHIFT) / HZ.
In logarithmic_accumulation(), drain up to 'skew_delta' time units from
time_offset into ntp_error to drive the overall effective rate. The new
ntp_drain_skew() function returns the amount which is actually 'claimed'
by time_offset (and in a future patch, time_adjust). Any overrun which
is delivered by the changed 'mult' (as described below) but not claimed
by ntp_drain_skew() will remain in ntp_error to be corrected away in
subsequent ticks.
Simply transferring the precise amount from time_offset to ntp_error
would be sufficent to make the time *eventually* converge, however the
skew delivered is limited by the choice of { mult, mult+1 } each tick
and thus the convergence would be extremely slow.
In theory we could inflate ntp_err_mult with the magnitude of ntp_error
in the general case — but that would cause overcorrection in a tickless
kernel. Instead, in timekeeping_adjust(), take skew_delta into account
when calculating 'mult', such that the available {mult, mult+1} choices
bracket the overall effective rate *including* the skew, to avoid the
delta just building up in ntp_error.
The effect is that the inflated 'mult' causes ntp_error to grow because
xtime_interval is (e.g.) longer than the true tick_length. But then the
same delta is removed again as it's drained from time_offset.
This gives behaviour equivalent to the old tick_length += delta approach
but with exact per-tick accounting of the time_offset actually imparted
to the clock, and no overrun.

cycle_interval is an integer number of counter cycles per NTP interval,
so the real time it represents differs from the nominal
NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH by up to half a counter period. For coarse
clocksources this is significant: the 3.579545 MHz ACPI PM timer at
HZ=1000 rounds 3579.545 cycles up to 3580, making each tick 1.000127 ms
(+127 PPM).
Commit a386b5af8e ("time: Compensate for rounding on odd-frequency
clocksources") introduced xtime_remainder to compensate for exactly
this, citing the same 127 PPM ACPI PM example. The compensation is
correct and necessary, but it was applied inside the timekeeping
accumulation in timekeeping.c: subtracted in the mult computation in
timekeeping_adjust() and folded into the ntp_error update in
logarithmic_accumulation(). That keeps the base rate correct and leaves
NTP its full symmetric +/-MAXFREQ range rather than +373/-627 PPM, but
the NTP code in ntp.c never sees it: tick_length is computed without the
correction, so ntp.c's notion of how long a tick is disagrees with the
rate timekeeping actually produces.
Make the offset an explicit part of the NTP tick_length instead. Add
ntp_data::cs_tick_adj, a fixed per-second addend that
ntp_update_frequency() includes alongside ntp_tick_adj and time_freq.
tk_setup_internals() computes it from the difference between the real
cycle_interval duration and the nominal interval, stores it in the
timekeeper, and hands it to NTP through a new argument to ntp_clear() --
which already recomputes the frequency and is invoked after every
clocksource (re)configuration. timekeeping_init() now uses TK_UPDATE_ALL
for this; clearing NTP there is otherwise redundant since ntp_init() has
just initialised it.
ntp.c now computes the true tick rate, giving a single source of truth.
Like ntp_tick_adj, cs_tick_adj stays internal to the kernel: userspace
still sees the nominal 1.000000 ms tick via adjtimex and is unaware of
the addends. timekeeping_adjust() and logarithmic_accumulation() use
ntp_tick / xtime_interval directly, and xtime_remainder is removed.
The base-rate arithmetic is unchanged: ntp_tick becomes
xtime_interval << ntp_error_shift, so the mult division yields the same
base mult and the ntp_error accumulation still nets to zero per tick.
Beyond the cleanup of treating all the tick_length contributions
(nominal interval, ntp_tick_adj, cs_tick_adj, time_freq) consistently
as addends in one place, it also prepares for feed-forward discipline:
a future timekeeping_set_reference() will set tick_length to track an
absolute external reference such as a vmclock, and that path needs
ntp.c to own a tick_length that already reflects the clocksource
quantisation, with no hidden correction applied elsewhere.

Due to an unsigned cast, adjtimex() returns the wrong offest when using
ADJ_MICRO and the offset is negative. In this case a small negative offset
returns approximately 4.29 seconds (~ 2^32/1000 milliseconds) due to the
unsigned cast of the negative offset.
This cast was added when the kernel internal struct timex was changed to
use type long long for the time offset value to address the problem of a
64bit/32bit division on 32bit systems.
The correct cast would have been (s32), which is correct as time_offset can
only be in the range of [INT_MIN..INT_MAX] because the shift constant used
for calculating it is 32. But that's non-obvious.
Remove the cast and use div_s64() to cure the issue.

sync_hw_clock() is normally called every 11 minutes when time is
synchronized. This issue is that this periodic timer uses the REALTIME
clock, so when time moves backwards (the NTP server jumps into the past),
the timer expires late.
If the timer expires late, which can be days later, the RTC will no longer
be updated, which is an issue if the device is abruptly powered OFF during
this period. When the device will restart (when powered ON), it will have
the date prior to the ADJ_SETOFFSET call.
A normal NTP server should not jump in the past like that, but it is
possible... Another way of reproducing this issue is to use phc2sys to
synchronize the REALTIME clock with, for example, an IRIG timecode with
the source always starting at the same date (not synchronized).
Also, if the time jump in the future by less than 11 minutes, the RTC may
not be updated immediately (minor issue). Consider the following scenario:
- Time is synchronized, and sync_hw_clock() was just called (the timer
expires in 11 minutes).
- A time jump is realized in the future by a couple of minutes.
- The time is synchronized again.
- Users may expect that RTC to be updated as soon as possible, and not
after 11 minutes (for the same reason, if a power loss occurs in this
period).
Cancel periodic timer on any time jump (ADJ_SETOFFSET) greater than or
equal to 1s. The timer will be relaunched at the end of do_adjtimex() if
NTP is still considered synced. Otherwise the timer will be relaunched
later when NTP is synced. This way, when the time is synchronized again,
the RTC is updated after less than 2 seconds.

The code for the legacy RTC and the RTC class based update are pretty much
the same. Consolidate the common parts into one function and just invoke
the actual setter functions.
For RTC class based devices the update code checks whether the offset is
valid for the device, which is usually not the case for the first
invocation. If it's not the same it stores the correct offset and lets the
caller try again. That's not much different from the previous approach
where the first invocation had a pretty low probability to actually hit the
allowed window.

The current RTC set_offset_nsec value is not really intuitive to
understand.
tsched twrite(t2.tv_sec - 1) t2 (seconds increment)
The offset is calculated from twrite based on the assumption that t2 -
twrite == 1s. That means for the MC146818 RTC the offset needs to be
negative so that the write happens 500ms before t2.
It's easier to understand when the whole calculation is based on t2. That
avoids negative offsets and the meaning is obvious:
t2 - twrite: The time defined by the chip when seconds increment
after the write.
twrite - tsched: The time for the transport to the point where the chip
is updated.
==> set_offset_nsec = t2 - tsched
ttransport = twrite - tsched
tRTCinc = t2 - twrite
==> set_offset_nsec = ttransport + tRTCinc
tRTCinc is a chip property and can be obtained from the data sheet.
ttransport depends on how the RTC is connected. It is close to 0 for
directly accessible RTCs. For RTCs behind a slow bus, e.g. i2c, it's the
time required to send the update over the bus. This can be estimated or
even calibrated, but that's a different problem.
Adjust the implementation and update comments accordingly.

Miroslav reported that the periodic RTC synchronization in the NTP code
fails more often than not to hit the specified update window.
The reason is that the code uses delayed_work to schedule the update which
needs to be in thread context as the underlying RTC might be connected via
a slow bus, e.g. I2C. In the update function it verifies whether the
current time is correct vs. the requirements of the underlying RTC.
But delayed_work is using the timer wheel for scheduling which is
inaccurate by design. Depending on the distance to the expiry the wheel
gets less granular to allow batching and to avoid the cascading of the
original timer wheel. See 500462a9de ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading
wheel") and the code for further details.
The code already deals with this by splitting the 660 seconds period into a
long 659 seconds timer and then retrying with a smaller delta.
But looking at the actual granularities of the timer wheel (which depend on
the HZ configuration) the 659 seconds timer ends up in an outer wheel level
and is affected by a worst case granularity of:
HZ Granularity
1000 32s
250 16s
100 40s
So the initial timer can be already off by max 12.5% which is not a big
issue as the period of the sync is defined as ~11 minutes.
The fine grained second attempt schedules to the desired update point with
a timer expiring less than a second from now. Depending on the actual delta
and the HZ setting even the second attempt can end up in outer wheel levels
which have a large enough granularity to make the correctness check fail.
As this is a fundamental property of the timer wheel there is no way to
make this more accurate short of iterating in one jiffies steps towards the
update point.
Switch it to an hrtimer instead which schedules the actual update work. The
hrtimer will expire precisely (max 1 jiffie delay when high resolution
timers are not available). The actual scheduling delay of the work is the
same as before.
The update is triggered from do_adjtimex() which is a bit racy but not much
more racy than it was before:
if (ntp_synced())
queue_delayed_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &sync_work, 0);
which is racy when the work is currently executed and has not managed to
reschedule itself.
This becomes now:
if (ntp_synced() && !hrtimer_is_queued(&sync_hrtimer))
queue_work(system_power_efficient_wq, &sync_work, 0);
which is racy when the hrtimer has expired and the work is currently
executed and has not yet managed to rearm the hrtimer.
Not a big problem as it just schedules work for nothing.
The new implementation has a safe guard in place to catch the case where
the hrtimer is queued on entry to the work function and avoids an extra
update attempt of the RTC that way.

It is typically set by NTP/PTP implementations and it is automatically
updated by the kernel on leap seconds. The initial value is zero (which
applications may interpret as unknown), but this value cannot be set by
adjtimex. This limitation seems to go back to the original "nanokernel"

Emit an audit record every time selected NTP parameters are modified

may be used to indirectly change system clock, and thus their

Such events will now generate records of type AUDIT_TIME_ADJNTPVAL
containing the following fields:
- op -- which value was adjusted:
- offset -- corresponding to the time_offset variable
- freq -- corresponding to the time_freq variable
- status -- corresponding to the time_status variable
- adjust -- corresponding to the time_adjust variable
- tick -- corresponding to the tick_usec variable
- tai -- corresponding to the timekeeping's TAI offset
- old -- the old value
- new -- the new value
Example records:
type=TIME_ADJNTPVAL msg=audit(1530616044.507:7): op=status old=64 new=8256
type=TIME_ADJNTPVAL msg=audit(1530616044.511:11): op=freq old=0 new=49180377088000

"More syscalls and cleanups
This concludes the main part of the system call rework for 64-bit
time_t, which has spread over most of year 2018, the last six system
calls being
- ppoll
- pselect6
- io_pgetevents
- recvmmsg
- futex
- rt_sigtimedwait
As before, nothing changes for 64-bit architectures, while 32-bit
architectures gain another entry point that differs only in the layout
of the timespec structure. Hopefully in the next release we can wire
up all 22 of those system calls on all 32-bit architectures, which
gives us a baseline version for glibc to start using them.
This does not include the clock_adjtime, getrusage/waitid, and
getitimer/setitimer system calls. I still plan to have new versions of
those as well, but they are not required for correct operation of the
C library since they can be emulated using the old 32-bit time_t based
system calls.
Aside from the system calls, there are also a few cleanups here,
removing old kernel internal interfaces that have become unused after
all references got removed. The arch/sh cleanups are part of this,
there were posted several times over the past year without a reaction
from the maintainers, while the corresponding changes made it into all
other architectures"
* tag 'y2038-for-4.21' of ssh://gitolite.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground:
timekeeping: remove obsolete time accessors
vfs: replace current_kernel_time64 with ktime equivalent
timekeeping: remove timespec_add/timespec_del
timekeeping: remove unused {read,update}_persistent_clock
sh: remove board_time_init() callback
sh: remove unused rtc_sh_get/set_time infrastructure
sh: sh03: rtc: push down rtc class ops into driver
sh: dreamcast: rtc: push down rtc class ops into driver
y2038: signal: Add compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait_time64
y2038: signal: Add sys_rt_sigtimedwait_time32
y2038: socket: Add compat_sys_recvmmsg_time64
y2038: futex: Add support for __kernel_timespec
y2038: futex: Move compat implementation into futex.c
io_pgetevents: use __kernel_timespec
pselect6: use __kernel_timespec
ppoll: use __kernel_timespec
signal: Add restore_user_sigmask()
signal: Add set_user_sigmask()
After arch/sh has removed the last reference to these functions,
we can remove them completely and just rely on the 64-bit time_t
based versions. This cleans up a rather ugly use of __weak
functions.
