3252a646aa2cf706b2a26433a8bd9cb2e5dce410 04-Jul-2014 Doug Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> clocksource: exynos_mct: Only use 32-bits where possible

The MCT has a nice 64-bit counter. That means that we _can_ register
as a 64-bit clocksource and sched_clock. ...but that doesn't mean we
should.

The 64-bit counter is read by reading two 32-bit registers. That
means reading needs to be something like:
- Read upper half
- Read lower half
- Read upper half and confirm that it hasn't changed.

That wouldn't be terrible, but:
- THe MCT isn't very fast to access (hundreds of nanoseconds).
- The clocksource is queried _all the time_.

In total system profiles of real workloads on ChromeOS, we've seen
exynos_frc_read() taking 2% or more of CPU time even after optimizing
the 3 reads above to 2 (see below).

The MCT is clocked at ~24MHz on all known systems. That means that
the 32-bit half of the counter rolls over every ~178 seconds. This
inspired an optimization in ChromeOS to cache the upper half between
calls, moving 3 reads to 2. ...but we can do better! Having a 32-bit
timer that flips every 178 seconds is more than sufficient for Linux.
Let's just use the lower half of the MCT.

Times on 5420 to do 1000000 gettimeofday() calls from userspace:
* Original code: 1323852 us
* ChromeOS cache upper half: 1173084 us
* ChromeOS + ldmia to optimize: 1045674 us
* Use lower 32-bit only (this code): 1014429 us

As you can see, the time used doesn't increase linearly with the
number of reads and we can make 64-bit work almost as fast as 32-bit
with a bit of assembly code. But since there's no real gain for
64-bit, let's go with the simplest and fastest implementation.

Note: with this change roughly half the time for gettimeofday() is
spent in exynos_frc_read(). The rest is timer / system call overhead.

Also note: this patch disables the use of the MCT on ARM64 systems
until we've sorted out how to make "cycles_t" always 32-bit. Really
ARM64 systems should be using arch timers anyway.

This patch registers the exynos mct clocksource as the current timer
as it has constant clock rate. This will generate correct udelay for
the exynos platform and avoid using unnecessary calibrated
jiffies. This change has been tested on exynos5420 based board and
udelay is very close to expected.

Without this patch udelay() on exynos5400 / exynos5800 is wildly
inaccurate due to big.LITTLE not adjusting loops_per_jiffy correctly.
Also without this patch udelay() on exynos5250 can be innacruate
during transitions between frequencies < 800 MHz (you'll go 200 MHz ->
800 MHz -> 300 MHz and will run at 800 MHz for a time with the wrong
loops_per_jiffy).

In (93bfb76 clocksource: exynos_mct: register sched_clock callback) we
supported using the MCT as a scheduler clock. We properly marked
exynos4_read_sched_clock() as notrace. However, we then went and
called another function that _wasn't_ notrace. That means if you do:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo function_graph > current_tracer

You'll get a crash.

Fix this (but still let other readers of the MCT be trace-enabled) by
adding an extra function. It's important to keep other users of MCT
traceable because the MCT is actually quite slow to access and we want
exynos4_frc_read() to show up in ftrace profiles if it's the
bottleneck.

Unfortunately on some exynos systems, resetting the mct counter also
resets the architected timer counter. This can cause problems if the
architected timer driver has already been initialized because the kernel
will think that the counter has wrapped around, causing a big jump in
printk timestamps and delaying any scheduled clock events until the
counter reaches the value it had before it was reset.

The kernel code makes no assumptions about the initial value of the mct
counter so there is no reason from a software perspective to clear the
counter before starting it. This also fixes the problems described in
the previous paragraph.

After hotplugging CPU1 the first call of interrupt handler for CPU1
oneshot timer was called on CPU0 because it fired before setting IRQ
affinity. Affected are SoCs where Multi Core Timer interrupts are
shared (SPI), e.g. Exynos 4210.

During setup of the MCT timers the clock event device should be
registered after setting the affinity for interrupt. This will prevent
starting the timer too early.

fails which results in per cpu timers for this cpu ending up on some
other online cpu, ususally cpu 0.

Use irq_force_affinity() which disables the online mask check and

Some variants of Exynos MCT, namely exynos4210-mct at the moment, use
normal, shared interrupts for local timers. This means that each
interrupt must have correct affinity set to fire only on CPU
corresponding to given local timer.

However after recent conversion of clocksource drivers to not use the
local timer API for local timer initialization any more, the point of
time when local timers get initialized changed and irq_set_affinity()
fails because the CPU is not marked as online yet.

This patch fixes this by moving the call to irq_set_affinity() to
CPU_ONLINE notification, so the affinity is being set when the CPU goes
online.

This fixes a regression introduced by commit
ee98d27df6 ARM: EXYNOS4: Divorce mct from local timer API
which rendered all Exynos4210 based boards unbootable due to
failing irq_set_affinity() making local timers inoperatible.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the drivers/clocksource and drivers/irqchip uses of
the __cpuinit macros from all C files.
