ptp: Remove 'default y' for VMCLOCK PTP device

The VMCLOCK device gives support for accurate timekeeping even across
live migration, unlike the KVM PTP clock. To help ensure that users can
always use ptp_vmclock where it's available in preference to ptp_kvm,
set it to 'default PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK' instead of 'default y'.

Add a small PtP driver which allows user space to get
the values of the physical and tod clock. This allows
programs like chrony to use STP as clock source and
steer the kernel clock. The physical clock can be used
as a debugging aid to get the clock without any additional
offsets like STP steering or LPAR offset.

ptp: Add support for the AMZNC10C 'vmclock' device

The vmclock device addresses the problem of live migration with
precision clocks. The tolerances of a hardware counter (e.g. TSC) are
typically around ±50PPM. A guest will use NTP/PTP/PPS to discipline that
counter against an external source of 'real' time, and track the precise
frequency of the counter as it changes with environmental conditions.

When a guest is live migrated, anything it knows about the frequency of
the underlying counter becomes invalid. It may move from a host where
the counter running at -50PPM of its nominal frequency, to a host where
it runs at +50PPM. There will also be a step change in the value of the
counter, as the correctness of its absolute value at migration is
limited by the accuracy of the source and destination host's time
synchronization.

In its simplest form, the device merely advertises a 'disruption_marker'
which indicates that the guest should throw away any NTP synchronization
it thinks it has, and start again.

Because the shared memory region can be exposed all the way to userspace
through the /dev/vmclock0 node, applications can still use time from a
fast vDSO 'system call', and check the disruption marker to be sure that
their timestamp is indeed truthful.

The structure also allows for the precise time, as known by the host, to
be exposed directly to guests so that they don't have to wait for NTP to
resync from scratch. The PTP driver consumes this information if present.
Like the KVM PTP clock, this PTP driver can convert TSC-based cross
timestamps into KVM clock values. Unlike the KVM PTP clock, it does so
only when such is actually helpful.

The values and fields are based on the nascent virtio-rtc specification,
and the intent is that a version (hopefully precisely this version) of
this structure will be included as an optional part of that spec. In the
meantime, this driver supports the simple ACPI form of the device which
is being shipped in certain commercial hypervisors (and submitted for
inclusion in QEMU).

ptp: add FemtoClock3 Wireless as ptp hardware clock

The RENESAS FemtoClock3 Wireless is a high-performance jitter attenuator,
frequency translator, and clock synthesizer. The device is comprised of 3
digital PLLs (DPLL) to track CLKIN inputs and three independent low phase
noise fractional output dividers (FOD) that output low phase noise clocks.

FemtoClock3 supports one Time Synchronization (Time Sync) channel to enable
an external processor to control the phase and frequency of the Time Sync
channel and to take phase measurements using the TDC. Intended applications
are synchronization using the precision time protocol (PTP) and
synchronization with 0.5 Hz and 1 Hz signals from GNSS.

net: ptp: create a mock-up PTP Hardware Clock driver

There are several cases where virtual net devices may benefit from
having a PTP clock, and these have to do with testing. I can see at
least netdevsim and veth as potential users of a common mock-up PTP
hardware clock driver.

The proposed idea is to create an object which emulates PTP clock
operations on top of the unadjustable CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW plus a
software-controlled time domain via a timecounter/cyclecounter and then
link that PHC to the netdevsim device.

The driver is fully functional for its intended purpose, and it
successfully passes the PTP selftests.

ethernet: fix PTP_1588_CLOCK dependencies

The 'imply' keyword does not do what most people think it does, it only
politely asks Kconfig to turn on another symbol, but does not prevent
it from being disabled manually or built as a loadable module when the
user is built-in. In the ICE driver, the latter now causes a link failure:

aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_eth_ioctl':
ice_main.c:(.text+0x13b0): undefined reference to `ice_ptp_get_ts_config'

aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_main.o: in function `ice_rebuild':

This is a recurring problem in many drivers, and we have discussed
it several times befores, without reaching a consensus. I'm providing
a link to the previous email thread for reference, which discusses
some related problems.

To solve the dependency issue better than the 'imply' keyword, introduce a
separate Kconfig symbol "CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL" that any driver
can depend on if it is able to use PTP support when available, but works
fine without it. Whenever CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK=m, those drivers are
then prevented from being built-in, the same way as with a 'depends on
PTP_1588_CLOCK || !PTP_1588_CLOCK' dependency that does the same trick,
but that can be rather confusing when you first see it.

Since this should cover the dependencies correctly, the IS_REACHABLE()
hack in the header is no longer needed now, and can be turned back
into a normal IS_ENABLED() check. Any driver that gets the dependency
wrong will now cause a link time failure rather than being unable to use
PTP support when that is in a loadable module.

However, the two recently added ptp_get_vclocks_index() and
ptp_convert_timestamp() interfaces are only called from builtin code with
ethtool and socket timestamps, so keep the current behavior by stubbing
those out completely when PTP is in a loadable module. This should be
addressed properly in a follow-up.

As Richard suggested, we may want to actually turn PTP support into a
'bool' option later on, preventing it from being a loadable module
altogether, which would be one way to solve the problem with the ethtool
interface.

ptp: arm/arm64: Enable ptp_kvm for arm/arm64

Currently, there is no mechanism to keep time sync between guest and host
in arm/arm64 virtualization environment. 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 in some scenarios,like in cloud environment, we ask
for higher time precision.

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

This patch enables kvm ptp clock for arm/arm64 and improves clock sync precision
significantly.

Test result comparisons between with kvm ptp clock and without it in arm/arm64
are as follows. This test derived from the result of command 'chronyc
sources'. we should take more care 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 see that the clock difference between host and guest
is in order of ns.

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation)
f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

$ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

ptp: add VMware virtual PTP clock driver

Add a PTP clock driver called ptp_vmw, for guests running on VMware ESXi
hypervisor. The driver attaches to a VMware virtual device called
"precision clock" that provides a mechanism for querying host system time.
Similar to existing virtual PTP clock drivers (e.g. ptp_kvm), ptp_vmw
utilizes the kernel's PTP hardware clock API to implement a clock device
that can be used as a reference in Chrony for synchronizing guest time with
host.

The driver is only applicable to x86 guests running in VMware virtual
machines with precision clock virtual device present. It uses a VMware
specific hypercall mechanism to read time from the device.

ptp: Add a ptp clock driver for IDT 82P33 SMU.

The IDT 82P33 Synchronization Management Unit (SMU) family provides
tools to manage timing references, clock sources and
timing paths for IEEE 1588 / Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and
Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) based clocks. The device supports up
to three independent timing paths that control: PTP clock synthesis;
SyncE clock generation; and general purpose frequency translation.
The device supports physical layer timing with Digital PLLs (DPLLs)
and it supports packet based timing with Digitally Controlled
Oscillators (DCOs). This patch adds support for ptp clock based on
the device.

Changes since v1:
- As suggested by Richard Cochran:
1. Replace _mask_bit_count with the existing hweight8
2. Prefix all functions with idt82p33
3. Fix white space issues in Kconfig and Makefile
4. Remove forward declaration
5. Use adjfine instead of adjfreq for better resolution

- As suggested by David Miller:
1. Replace CHAN_INIT macro with a static function
idt82p33_channel_init
2. Employ reverse christmas tree ordering for local
variables
3. Fix indentation problem by appropriate number of
TAB then SPACE character

The ixp46x ptp driver has a somewhat unusual setup, where the ptp
driver and the ethernet driver are in different directories but
access the same registers that are defined a platform specific
header file.

Moving everything into drivers/net/ makes it look more like most
other ptp drivers and allows compile-testing this driver on
other targets.
