2020-02-17lib/vdso: Avoid highres update if clocksource is not VDSO capableThomas Gleixner1-7/+0
If the current clocksource is not VDSO capable there is no point in updating the high resolution parts of the VDSO data. Replace the architecture specific check with a check for a VDSO capable clocksource and skip the update if there is none.

2020-02-17lib/vdso: Cleanup clock mode storage leftoversThomas Gleixner1-7/+0
Now that all architectures are converted to use the generic storage the helpers and conditionals can be removed.

2020-01-17lib/vdso: Make __arch_update_vdso_data() logic understandableThomas Gleixner1-2/+2
The function name suggests that this is a boolean checking whether the architecture asks for an update of the VDSO data, but it works the other way round. To spare further confusion invert the logic.

2019-11-05timekeeping/vsyscall: Update VDSO data unconditionallyHuacai Chen1-7/+0
The update of the VDSO data is depending on __arch_use_vsyscall() returning True. This is a leftover from the attempt to map the features of various architectures 1:1 into generic code. The usage of __arch_use_vsyscall() in the actual vsyscall implementations got dropped and replaced by the requirement for the architecture code to return U64_MAX if the global clocksource is not usable in the VDSO. But the __arch_use_vsyscall() check in the update code stayed which causes the VDSO data to be stale or invalid when an architecture actually implements that function and returns False when the current clocksource is not usable in the VDSO. As a consequence the VDSO implementations of clock_getres(), time(), clock_gettime(CLOCK_.*_COARSE) operate on invalid data and return bogus information. Remove the __arch_use_vsyscall() check from the VDSO update function and update the VDSO data unconditionally.

2019-06-22timekeeping: Provide a generic update_vsyscall() implementationVincenzo Frascino1-0/+50
The new generic VDSO library allows to unify the update_vsyscall[_tz]() implementations. Provide a generic implementation based on the x86 code and the bindings which need to be implemented in architecture specific code. [ tglx: Moved it into kernel/time where it belongs.
