MIPS: VDSO: Add implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() Add user-mode implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() to the VDSO. This is currently usable with 2 clocksources: the CP0 count register, which is accessible to user-mode via RDHWR on R2 and later cores, or the MIPS Global Interrupt Controller (GIC) timer, which provides a "user-mode visible" section containing a mirror of its counter registers. This section must be mapped into user memory, which is done below the VDSO data page. When a supported clocksource is not in use, the VDSO functions will return -ENOSYS, which causes libc to fall back on the standard syscall path. When support for neither of these clocksources is compiled into the kernel at all, the VDSO still provides clock_gettime(), as the coarse realtime/monotonic clocks can still be implemented. However, gettimeofday() is not provided in this case as nothing can be done without a suitable clocksource. This causes the symbol lookup to fail in libc and it will then always use the standard syscall path. This patch includes a workaround for a bug in QEMU which results in RDHWR on the CP0 count register always returning a constant (incorrect) value. A fix for this has been submitted, and the workaround can be removed after the fix has been in stable releases for a reasonable amount of time. A simple performance test which calls gettimeofday() 1000 times in a loop and calculates the average execution time gives the following results on a Malta + I6400 (running at 20MHz): - Syscall: ~31000 ns - VDSO (GIC): ~15000 ns - VDSO (CP0): ~9500 ns [markos.chandras@imgtec.com: - Minor code re-arrangements in order for mappings to be made in the order they appear to the process' address space. - Move do_{monotonic, realtime} outside of the MIPS_CLOCK_VSYSCALL ifdef - Use gic_get_usm_range so we can do the GIC mapping in the arch/mips/kernel/vdso instead of the GIC irqchip driver] Signed-off-by: Alex Smith <alex.smith@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/11338/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

MIPS: VDSO: Fix conversions in do_monotonic()/do_monotonic_coarse() Fix incorrect calculation in do_monotonic() and do_monotonic_coarse() function that in turn caused incorrect values returned by the vdso version of system call clock_gettime() on mips64 if its system clock ID parameter was CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE. Consider these variables and their types on mips32 and mips64: tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec s64, s64 (kernel/vdso.c) vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec u32, u32 (kernel/vdso.c) to_mono_sec u32, u32 (vdso/gettimeofday.c) ts->tv_sec s32, s64 (vdso/gettimeofday.c) For mips64 case, u32 vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec variable is updated from the 64-bit signed variable tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec (kernel/vdso.c:76) which is a negative number holding the time passed from 1970-01-01 to the time boot started. This 64-bit signed value is currently around 47+ years, in seconds. For instance, let this value be: -1489757461 or 11111111111111111111111111111111 10100111001101000001101011101011 By updating 32-bit vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec variable, we lose upper 32 bits (signed 1's). to_mono_sec variable is a parameter of do_monotonic() and do_monotonic_coarse() functions which holds vdso_data.wall_to_mono_sec value. Its value needs to be added (or subtracted considering it holds negative value from the tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec) to the current time passed from 1970-01-01 (ts->tv_sec), which is again something like 47+ years, but increased by the time passed from the boot to the current time. ts->tv_sec is 32-bit long in case of 32-bit architecture and 64-bit long in case of 64-bit architecture. Consider the update of ts->tv_sec (vdso/gettimeofday.c:55 & 167): ts->tv_sec += to_mono_sec; mips32 case: This update will be performed correctly, since both ts->tv_sec and to_mono_sec are 32-bit long and the sign in to_mono_sec is preserved. Implicit conversion from u32 to s32 will be done correctly. mips64 case: This update will be wrong, since the implicit conversion will not be done correctly. The reason is that the conversion will be from u32 to s64. This is because to_mono_sec is 32-bit long for both mips32 and mips64 cases and s64..33 bits of converted to_mono_sec variable will be zeros. So, in order to make MIPS64 implementation work properly for MONOTONIC and MONOTONIC_COARSE clock ids on mips64, the size of wall_to_mono_sec variable in mips_vdso_data union and respective parameters in do_monotonic() and do_monotonic_coarse() functions should be changed from u32 to u64. Because of consistency, this size change from u32 and u64 is also done for wall_to_mono_nsec variable and corresponding function parameters. As far as similar situations for other architectures are concerned, let's take a look at arm. Arm has two distinct vdso_data structures for 32-bit & 64-bit cases, and arm's wall_to_mono_sec and wall_to_mono_nsec are u32 for 32-bit and u64 for 64-bit cases. On the other hand, MIPS has only one structure (mips_vdso_data), hence the need for changing the size of above mentioned parameters.

This patch includes a workaround for a bug in QEMU which results in RDHWR on the CP0 count register always returning a constant (incorrect) value. A fix for this has been submitted, and the workaround can be removed after the fix has been in stable releases for a reasonable amount of time. A simple performance test which calls gettimeofday() 1000 times in a loop and calculates the average execution time gives the following results on a Malta + I6400 (running at 20MHz): - Syscall: ~31000 ns - VDSO (GIC): ~15000 ns - VDSO (CP0): ~9500 ns [markos.chandras@imgtec.com: - Minor code re-arrangements in order for mappings to be made in the order they appear to the process' address space. - Move do_{monotonic, realtime} outside of the MIPS_CLOCK_VSYSCALL ifdef - Use gic_get_usm_range so we can do the GIC mapping in the arch/mips/kernel/vdso instead of the GIC irqchip driver] Signed-off-by: Alex Smith <alex.smith@imgtec.com> Signed-off-by: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@imgtec.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/11338/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

MIPS: VDSO: Add implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() Add user-mode implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime() to the VDSO. This is currently usable with 2 clocksources: the CP0 count register, which is accessible to user-mode via RDHWR on R2 and later cores, or the MIPS Global Interrupt Controller (GIC) timer, which provides a "user-mode visible" section containing a mirror of its counter registers. This section must be mapped into user memory, which is done below the VDSO data page. When a supported clocksource is not in use, the VDSO functions will return -ENOSYS, which causes libc to fall back on the standard syscall path. When support for neither of these clocksources is compiled into the kernel at all, the VDSO still provides clock_gettime(), as the coarse realtime/monotonic clocks can still be implemented. However, gettimeofday() is not provided in this case as nothing can be done without a suitable clocksource. This causes the symbol lookup to fail in libc and it will then always use the standard syscall path.
