[PATCH] Provide u64 version of jiffies_to_usecs() in kernel/tsacct.c

[PATCH] Provide u64 version of jiffies_to_usecs() in kernel/tsacct.c

[Jonathan Lim]

It's possible that the values used in and returned from jiffies_to_usecs() are
incorrect because of truncation when variables of type u64 are involved.  So a
function specific to that type is used instead.

do_div() is:

Maybe you want div64_64().

Please also adapt the "BITS_PER_LONG == 32" part from jiffies_to_usecs(), it 
should provide enough resolution to avoid the div64_64() here.

bye, Roman

Re: [PATCH] Provide u64 version of jiffies_to_usecs() in kernel/tsacct.c

[Jonathan Lim]

It's possible that the values used in and returned from jiffies_to_usecs() are
incorrect because of truncation when variables of type u64 are involved.  So a
function specific to that type is used instead.

This version implements a correction to jiffies_64_to_usecs() based on feedback
from Randy Dunlap and Roman Zippel.

Fair enough.  But I guess that new function should be a kernel-wide thing
because surely other users will turn up.

Peter has been working on the accuracy of some of these conversion
functions and might need to know about this change?

Yes, the function should be coded using the new #defines produced by 
timeconst.h; that way you end up avoiding a possible overflow in the 
multiplication.

I believe all three cases can be folded, then, to:

	return (j*HZ_TO_USEC_NUM + HZ_TO_USEC_DEN-1) / HZ_TO_USEC_DEN;

I would also like to observe that the roundoff behaviour of the function 
  above is inconsistent; in case 2 it will round up, but in case 3 it 
will round down.  The line proposed above has round up behaviour.

Peter,

Would you be willing to include the u64 function as part of your patch to make
it available kernel-wide?  It just needs:

  u64 inline jiffies_to_usecs_u64(const u64 j)

and for the symbol to be exported.  Thanks.

Jonathan

It should be a separate patch (new functionality versus change of 
implementation); I'd just do a small patch on top of mine.

Much worse than that.  There are internal overflows in the conversions. 
See the patch I recently submitted to -mm.
