[patch V2 09/10] hrtimer: Avoid unnecessary SMP function calls in clock_was_set()
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue Jul 13 2021 - 09:54:40 EST
From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>
Setting of clocks triggers an unconditional SMP function call on all online
CPUs to reprogram the clock event device.
However, only some clocks have their offsets updated and therefore
potentially require a reprogram. That's CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_TAI and in
the case of resume (delayed sleep time injection) also CLOCK_BOOTTIME.
Instead of sending an IPI unconditionally, check each per CPU hrtimer base
whether it has active timers in the affected clock bases which are
indicated by the caller in the @bases argument of clock_was_set().
If that's not the case, skip the IPI and update the offsets remotely which
ensures that any subsequently armed timers on the affected clocks are
evaluated with the correct offsets.
[ tglx: Adopted to the new bases argument, removed the softirq_active
check, added comment, fixed up stale comment ]

v6:
- Remove the softirq_active check (Peter Xu)
- Adopt to the new base argument
- Add comment and fixup the stale one
- Bring back CLOCK_BOOTTIME conditionally for late sleeptime
injection on resume (missed that in the review of V1)
v5:
- Add missing hrtimer_update_base (Peter Xu).
v4:
- Drop unused code (Thomas).
v3:
- Nicer changelog (Thomas).
- Code style fixes (Thomas).
- Compilation warning with CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n (Thomas).
- Shrink preemption disabled section (Thomas).
v2:
- Only REALTIME and TAI bases are affected by offset-to-monotonic changes (Thomas).
- Don't special case nohz_full CPUs (Thomas).
