[PATCH v2 ] PM-runtime: fix deadlock with ktime
From: Vincent Guittot
Date: Wed Jan 30 2019 - 06:16:35 EST
A deadlock has been seen when swicthing clocksources which use PM runtime.
The call path is:
change_clocksource
...
write_seqcount_begin
...
timekeeping_update
...
sh_cmt_clocksource_enable
...
rpm_resume
pm_runtime_mark_last_busy
ktime_get
do
read_seqcount_begin
while read_seqcount_retry
....
write_seqcount_end
Although we should be safe because we haven't yet changed the clocksource
at that time, we can't because of seqcount protection.
Use ktime_get_mono_fast_ns() instead which is lock safe for such case
With ktime_get_mono_fast_ns, the timestamp is not guaranteed to be
monotonic across an update and as a result can goes backward. According to
update_fast_timekeeper() description: "In the worst case, this can
result is a slightly wrong timestamp (a few nanoseconds)". For
PM runtime autosuspend, this means only that the suspend decision can
be slightly sub optimal.
Fixes: 8234f6734c5d ("PM-runtime: Switch autosuspend over to using hrtimers")
