This problem could only occur on the system with 32 cores, when I
cut the cores to 16, this problem disappeared, so I think there is
some parallel problem when the 32 core set clock time together:
I try to reproduce the scene:
1.do_settimeofday64
2.update tk time
3.update base time offset
4.update expires_next
the 3 and 4 will be called in softirq, but the hrtimer_interrupt may
break the order and run before 3, I am not sure whether this could
make the problem, do we need to update base time and expires_next in
the hrtimer_interrupt? maybe I miss something, thanks for any
suggestion.
Base offset is updated in hrtimer_interrupt as
well. hrtimer_update_base() does that. So that's not the problem.
Can you apply the patch below and enable the hrtimer tracepoints and
collect trace data across the point where the problem happens?
Thanks,
tglx
