[RFC PATCH v7 0/7] Enable ptp_kvm for arm64

[Jianyong Wu]

kvm ptp targets to provide high precision time sync between guest
and host in virtualization environment. This patch enable kvm ptp
for arm64.
This patch set base on [1][2][3]

change log:
from v6 to v7:
        (1) include the omited clocksource_id.h in last version.
        (2) reorder the header file in patch.
        (3) refine some words in commit message to make it more impersonal.
from v5 to v6:
        (1) apply Mark's patch[4] to get SMCCC conduit.
        (2) add mechanism to recognize current clocksource by add
clocksouce_id value into struct clocksource instead of method in patch-v5.
        (3) rename kvm_arch_ptp_get_clock_fn into
kvm_arch_ptp_get_crosststamp.

from v4 to v5:
        (1) remove hvc delay compensasion as it should leave to userspace.
        (2) check current clocksource in hvc call service.
        (3) expose current clocksource by adding it to
system_time_snapshot.
        (4) add helper to check if clocksource is arm_arch_counter.
        (5) rename kvm_ptp.c to ptp_kvm_common.c
from v3 to v4:
        (1) fix clocksource of ptp_kvm to arch_sys_counter.
        (2) move kvm_arch_ptp_get_clock_fn into arm_arch_timer.c
        (3) subtract cntvoff before return cycles from host.
        (4) use ktime_get_snapshot instead of getnstimeofday and
get_current_counterval to return time and counter value.
        (5) split ktime and counter into two 32-bit block respectively
to avoid Y2038-safe issue.
        (6) set time compensation to device time as half of the delay of
hvc call.
        (7) add ARM_ARCH_TIMER as dependency of ptp_kvm for
arm64.

from v2 to v3:
        (1) fix some issues in commit log.
        (2) add some receivers in send list.

from v1 to v2:
        (1) move arch-specific code from arch/ to driver/ptp/
        (2) offer mechanism to inform userspace if ptp_kvm service is
available.
        (3) separate ptp_kvm code for arm64 into hypervisor part and
guest part.
        (4) add API to expose monotonic clock and counter value.
        (5) refine code: remove no necessary part and reconsitution.

[RFC PATCH v7 1/7] arm/arm64: smccc/psci: add arm_smccc_1_1_get_conduit()

[Jianyong Wu]

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

SMCCC callers are currently amassing a collection of enums for the SMCCC
conduit, and are having to dig into the PSCI driver's internals in order
to figure out what to do.

Let's clean this up, with common SMCCC_CONDUIT_* definitions, and an
arm_smccc_1_1_get_conduit() helper that abstracts the PSCI driver's
internal state.

We can kill off the PSCI_CONDUIT_* definitions once we've migrated users
over to the new interface.

[RFC PATCH v7 3/7] ptp: Reorganize ptp_kvm modules to make it arch-independent.

[Jianyong Wu]

Currently, ptp_kvm modules implementation is only for x86 which includs
large part of arch-specific code.  This patch move all of those code
into new arch related file in the same directory.

[RFC PATCH v7 4/7] time: Add mechanism to recognize clocksource in time_get_snapshot

[Jianyong Wu]

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
In some scenario like return device time to ptp_kvm guest,
we need identify the current clocksource outside core time code.
A mechanism added to recognize the current clocksource
by export clocksource id in time_get_snapshot.

[RFC PATCH v7 6/7] ptp: arm64: Enable ptp_kvm for arm64

[Jianyong Wu]

Currently in arm64 virtualization environment, there is no mechanism to
keep time sync between guest and host. Time in guest will drift compared
with host after boot up as they may both use third party time sources
to correct their time respectively. The time deviation will be in order
of milliseconds but some scenarios ask for higher time precision, like
in cloud envirenment, we want all the VMs running in the host aquire the
same level accuracy from host clock.

Use of kvm ptp clock, which choose the host clock source clock as a
reference clock to sync time clock between guest and host has been adopted
by x86 which makes the time sync order from milliseconds to nanoseconds.

This patch enable kvm ptp on arm64 and we get the similar clock drift as
found with x86 with kvm ptp.

Test result comparison between with kvm ptp and without it in arm64 are
as follows. This test derived from the result of command 'chronyc
sources'. we should take more cure of the last sample column which shows
the offset between the local clock and the source at the last measurement.

no kvm ptp in guest:

The dns1.synet.edu.cn is the network reference clock for guest and
120.25.115.20 is the network reference clock for host. we can't get the
clock error between guest and host directly, but a roughly estimated value
will be in order of hundreds of us to ms.

with kvm ptp in guest:
chrony has been disabled in host to remove the disturb by network clock.

The PHC0 is the ptp clock which choose the host clock as its source
clock. So we can be sure to say that the clock error between host and guest
is in order of ns.

Can you please replace that with the following:

 System time snapshots are not conveying information about the current
 clocksource which was used, but callers like the PTP KVM guest
 implementation have the requirement to evaluate the clocksource type to
 select the appropriate mechanism.

 Introduce a clocksource id field in struct clocksource which is by default
 set to CSID_GENERIC (0). Clocksource implementations can set that field to
 a value which allows to identify the clocksource.

 Store the clocksource id of the current clocksource in the
 system_time_snapshot so callers can evaluate which clocksource was used to
 take the snapshot and act accordingly.

This should only add the infrastructure with just CSID_GENERIC in place.

The ARM_ARCH variant needs to come in a seperate patch which adds the enum
and uses it in the corresponding driver. Seperate means a patch doing only
that and nothing else, i.e. not hidden in some other patch which actually
makes use of it.

Ok, really better.

Yeah, this patch should be arch independent and "CSID_ARM_ARCH_COUNTER" should be in an
Separate patch.
