Merge tag 'timers-core-2024-05-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core code:
- Make timekeeping and VDSO time readouts resilent against math
overflow:
In guest context the kernel is prone to math overflow when the host
defers the timer interrupt due to overload, malfunction or malice.
This can be mitigated by checking the clocksource delta for the
maximum deferrement which is readily available. If that value is
exceeded then the code uses a slowpath function which can handle
the multiplication overflow.
This functionality is enabled unconditionally in the kernel, but
made conditional in the VDSO code. The latter is conditional
because it allows architectures to optimize the check so it is not
causing performance regressions.
On X86 this is achieved by reworking the existing check for
negative TSC deltas as a negative delta obviously exceeds the
maximum deferrement when it is evaluated as an unsigned value. That
avoids two conditionals in the hotpath and allows to hide both the
negative delta and the large delta handling in the same slow path.
- Add an initial minimal ktime_t abstraction for Rust
- The usual boring cleanups and enhancements
Drivers:
- Boring updates to device trees and trivial enhancements in various
drivers"
