arm64/arch_timer: include <linux/percpu.h>

arch_timer.h includes linux/smp.h since the commit:

6acc71ccac7187fc ("arm64: arch_timer: Allows a CPU-specific erratum to only affect a subset of CPUs")

It was included to use DEFINE_PER_CPU(), etc. But It should have
included <linux/percpu.h> rather than <linux/smp.h>. It worked because
smp.h includes percpu.h.

The next commit will remove percpu.h from smp.h and it will break this
usage.

Explicitly include percpu.h and remove smp.h

arm64/arch_timer: Provide noinstr sched_clock_read() functions

With the intent to provide local_clock_noinstr(), a variant of
local_clock() that's safe to be called from noinstr code (with the
assumption that any such code will already be non-preemptible),
prepare for things by providing a noinstr sched_clock_read() function.

Specifically, preempt_enable_*() calls out to schedule(), which upsets
noinstr validation efforts.

CNTPCTSS_EL0 and CNTVCTSS_EL0 are alternatives to the usual
CNTPCT_EL0 and CNTVCT_EL0 that do not require a previous ISB
to be synchronised (SS stands for Self-Synchronising).

Use the ARM64_HAS_ECV capability to control alternative sequences
that switch to these low(er)-cost primitives. Note that the
counter access in the VDSO is for now left alone until we decide
whether we want to allow this.

clocksource/drivers/arch_arm_timer: Move workaround synchronisation around

We currently handle synchronisation when workarounds are enabled
by having an ISB in the __arch_counter_get_cnt?ct_stable() helpers.

While this works, this prevents us from relaxing this synchronisation.

Instead, move it closer to the point where the synchronisation is
actually needed. Further patches will subsequently relax this.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Drop unnecessary ISB on CVAL programming

Switching from TVAL to CVAL has a small drawback: we need an ISB
before reading the counter. We cannot get rid of it, but we can
instead remove the one that comes just after writing to CVAL.

This reduces the number of ISBs from 3 to 2 when programming
the timer.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Move system register timer programming over to CVAL

In order to cope better with high frequency counters, move the
programming of the timers from the countdown timer (TVAL) over
to the comparator (CVAL).

The programming model is slightly different, as we now need to
read the current counter value to have an absolute deadline
instead of a relative one.

There is a small overhead to this change, which we will address
in the following patches.

clocksource/arm_arch_timer: Direcly assign set_next_event workaround

When a given timer is affected by an erratum and requires an
alternative implementation of set_next_event, we do a rather
complicated dance to detect and call the workaround on each
set_next_event call.

This is clearly idiotic, as we can perfectly detect whether
this CPU requires a workaround while setting up the clock event
device.

This only requires the CPU-specific detection to be done a bit
earlier, and we can then safely override the set_next_event pointer
if we have a workaround associated to that CPU.

arm64: arch_timer: Ensure counter register reads occur with seqlock held

When executing clock_gettime(), either in the vDSO or via a system call,
we need to ensure that the read of the counter register occurs within
the seqlock reader critical section. This ensures that updates to the
clocksource parameters (e.g. the multiplier) are consistent with the
counter value and therefore avoids the situation where time appears to
go backwards across multiple reads.

Extend the vDSO logic so that the seqlock critical section covers the
read of the counter register as well as accesses to the data page. Since
reads of the counter system registers are not ordered by memory barrier
instructions, introduce dependency ordering from the counter read to a
subsequent memory access so that the seqlock memory barriers apply to
the counter access in both the vDSO and the system call paths.

arm_arch_timer: Expose event stream status

The arch timer configuration for a CPU might get reset after suspending
said CPU.

In order to reliably use the event stream in the kernel (e.g. for delays),
we keep track of the state where we can safely consider the event stream as
properly configured. After writing to cntkctl, we issue an ISB to ensure
that subsequent delay loops can rely on the event stream being enabled.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Avoid infinite recursion when ftrace is enabled

On platforms with an arch timer erratum workaround, it's possible for
arch_timer_reg_read_stable() to recurse into itself when certain
tracing options are enabled, leading to stack overflows and related
problems.

For example, when PREEMPT_TRACER and FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER are
selected, it's possible to trigger this with:

$ mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug/
$ echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer

The problem is that in such cases, preempt_disable() instrumentation
attempts to acquire a timestamp via trace_clock(), resulting in a call
back to arch_timer_reg_read_stable(), and hence recursion.

This patch changes arch_timer_reg_read_stable() to use
preempt_{disable,enable}_notrace(), which avoids this.

This problem is similar to the fixed by upstream commit 96b3d28bf4
("sched/clock: Prevent tracing recursion in sched_clock_cpu()").

arm64: arch_timer: Allow erratum matching with ACPI OEM information

Just as we're able to identify a broken platform using some DT
information, let's enable a way to spot the offenders with ACPI.

The difference is that we can only match on some OEM info instead
of implementation-specific properties. So in order to avoid the
insane multiplication of errata structures, we allow an array
of OEM descriptions to be attached to an erratum structure.

arm64: arch_timer: Allows a CPU-specific erratum to only affect a subset of CPUs

Instead of applying a CPU-specific workaround to all CPUs in the system,
allow it to only affect a subset of them (typical big-little case).

This is done by turning the erratum pointer into a per-CPU variable.
