[PATCH RESEND v1 0/4] powerpc/vdso: Add support for time namespaces

[Christophe Leroy]

[Sorry, resending with complete destination list, I used the wrong script on the first delivery]

This series adds support for time namespaces on powerpc.

All timens selftests are successfull.

[PATCH RESEND v1 1/4] lib/vdso: Mark do_hres_timens() and do_coarse_timens() __always_inline()

[Christophe Leroy]

In the same spirit as commit c966533f8c6c ("lib/vdso: Mark do_hres()
and do_coarse() as __always_inline"), mark do_hres_timens() and
do_coarse_timens() __always_inline.

The measurement below in on a non timens process, ie on the fastest path.

On powerpc32, without the patch:

clock-gettime-monotonic-raw:    vdso: 1155 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic-coarse:    vdso: 813 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic:    vdso: 1076 nsec/call

With the patch:

clock-gettime-monotonic-raw:    vdso: 1100 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic-coarse:    vdso: 667 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic:    vdso: 1025 nsec/call

[PATCH RESEND v1 2/4] lib/vdso: Add vdso_data pointer as input to __arch_get_timens_vdso_data()

[Christophe Leroy]

For the same reason as commit e876f0b69dc9 ("lib/vdso: Allow
architectures to provide the vdso data pointer"), powerpc wants to
avoid calculation of relative position to code.

As the timens_vdso_data is next page to vdso_data, provide
vdso_data pointer to __arch_get_timens_vdso_data() in order
to ease the calculation on powerpc in following patches.

[PATCH RESEND v1 3/4] powerpc/vdso: Separate vvar vma from vdso

[Christophe Leroy]

From: Dmitry Safonov <dima@arista.com>

Since commit 511157ab641e ("powerpc/vdso: Move vdso datapage up front")
VVAR page is in front of the VDSO area. In result it breaks CRIU
(Checkpoint Restore In Userspace) [1], where CRIU expects that "[vdso]"
from /proc/../maps points at ELF/vdso image, rather than at VVAR data page.
Laurent made a patch to keep CRIU working (by reading aux vector).
But I think it still makes sence to separate two mappings into different
VMAs. It will also make ppc64 less "special" for userspace and as
a side-bonus will make VVAR page un-writable by debugger (which previously
would COW page and can be unexpected).

I opportunistically Cc stable on it: I understand that usually such
stuff isn't a stable material, but that will allow us in CRIU have
one workaround less that is needed just for one release (v5.11) on
one platform (ppc64), which we otherwise have to maintain.
I wouldn't go as far as to say that the commit 511157ab641e is ABI
regression as no other userspace got broken, but I'd really appreciate
if it gets backported to v5.11 after v5.12 is released, so as not
to complicate already non-simple CRIU-vdso code. Thanks!

[PATCH RESEND v1 4/4] powerpc/vdso: Add support for time namespaces

[Christophe Leroy]

This patch adds the necessary glue to provide time namespaces.

Things are mainly copied from ARM64.

__arch_get_timens_vdso_data() calculates timens vdso data position
based on the vdso data position, knowing it is the next page in vvar.
This avoids having to redo the mflr/bcl/mflr/mtlr dance to locate
the page relative to running code position.
