[PATCH v5 04/12] arm: vdso: do calculations outside reader loops

From: Mark Salyzyn
Date: Mon Nov 06 2017 - 16:05:08 EST


Take an effort to recode the arm64 vdso code from assembler to C
previously submitted by Andrew Pinski <apinski@xxxxxxxxxx>, rework
it for use in both arm and arm64, overlapping any optimizations
for each architecture. But instead of landing it in arm64, land the
result into lib/vdso and unify both implementations to simplify
future maintenance.

In variable timer reading loops, pick up just the values until all
are synchronized, then outside of loop pick up cntvct and perform
calculations to determine final offset, shifted and multiplied
output value.

This replaces get_ns with get_clock_shifted_nsec as cntvct reader.

v2:
- split first CL into 5 of 7 pieces

v4:
- split into two, moving ARCH_CLOCK_FIXED_MASK to later
- update commit message to reflect overall reasoning
- adjust for dropping forced inline
- replace typeof() with types vdso_wtm_clock_nsec_t,
vdso_xtime_clock_sec and __kernel_time_t.

v5:
- drop including linux/time.h in favour of uapi/linux/time.h in
vgettimeofday.c to limit architectural includes.
- add linux/time.h to compiler.h for NSEC_PER_SEC definition.
- replace last timespec_add_ns with __iter_div_u64_rem.
