x86/timers/apic: Inform TSC deadline clockevent device about recalibration

2016-08-10T10:38:12Z

This patch eliminates a source of imprecise APIC timer interrupts, which imprecision may result in double interrupts or even late interrupts. The TSC deadline clockevent devices' configuration and registration happens before the TSC frequency calibration is refined in tsc_refine_calibration_work(). This results in the TSC clocksource and the TSC deadline clockevent devices being configured with slightly different frequencies: the former gets the refined one and the latter are configured with the inaccurate frequency detected earlier by means of the "Fast TSC calibration using PIT". Within the APIC code, introduce the notifier function lapic_update_tsc_freq() which reconfigures all per-CPU TSC deadline clockevent devices with the current tsc_khz. Call it from the TSC code after TSC calibration refinement has happened.

x86/tsc: Remove the unused check_tsc_disabled()

2016-07-15T08:35:08Z

check_tsc_disabled() was introduced by commit: c73deb6aecda ("perf/x86: Add ability to calculate TSC from perf sample timestamps") The only caller was arch_perf_update_userpage(), which had been refactored by commit: d8b11a0cbd1c ("perf/x86: Clean up cap_user_time* setting") ... so no need keep and export it any more.

x86/kernel: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h

2016-07-14T13:06:41Z

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. Build testing revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly. Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

x86/tsc: Enumerate BXT tsc_khz via CPUID

2016-07-11T19:30:13Z

Hard code the BXT crystal clock (aka ART - Always Running Timer) to 19.200 MHz, and use CPUID leaf 0x15 to determine the BXT TSC frequency. Use tsc_khz to sanity check BXT cpu_khz, which can be erroneous in some configurations. (I simplified the original patch from Bin Gao.)

x86/tsc: Enumerate SKL cpu_khz and tsc_khz via CPUID

2016-07-11T19:30:13Z

Skylake CPU base-frequency and TSC frequency may differ by up to 2%. Enumerate CPU and TSC frequencies separately, allowing cpu_khz and tsc_khz to differ. The existing CPU frequency calibration mechanism is unchanged. However, CPUID extensions are preferred, when available. CPUID.0x16 is preferred over MSR and timer calibration for CPU frequency discovery. CPUID.0x15 takes precedence over CPU-frequency for TSC frequency discovery.

Remove the irqoff/irqon around MSR-based TSC enumeration, as it is not necessary. Also rename: try_msr_calibrate_tsc() to cpu_khz_from_msr(), as that better describes what the routine does.
