arm: arch_timer: move core to drivers/clocksource The core functionality of the arch_timer driver is not directly tied to anything under arch/arm, and can be split out. This patch factors out the core of the arch_timer driver, so it can be shared with other architectures. A couple of functions are added so that architecture-specific code can interact with the driver without needing to touch its internals. The ARM_ARCH_TIMER config variable is moved out to drivers/clocksource/Kconfig, existing uses in arch/arm are replaced with HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER, which selects it.

KVM: arm64: nv: Use FEAT_ECV to trap access to EL0 timers Although FEAT_NV2 makes most things fast, it also makes it impossible to correctly emulate the timers, as the sysreg accesses are redirected to memory. FEAT_ECV addresses this by giving a hypervisor the ability to trap the EL02 sysregs as well as the virtual timer. Add the required trap setting to make use of the feature, allowing us to elide the ugly resync in the middle of the run loop.

clocksource: arch_timer: Make register accessors less error-prone Using an enum for the register we wish to access allows newer compilers to determine if we've forgotten a case in our switch statement. This allows us to remove the BUILD_BUG() instances in the arm64 port, avoiding problems where optimizations may not happen. To try and force better code generation we're currently marking the accessor functions as inline, but newer compilers can ignore the inline keyword unless it's marked __always_inline. Luckily on arm and arm64 inline is __always_inline, but let's make everything __always_inline to be explicit.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Move system register timer programming over to CVAL In order to cope better with high frequency counters, move the programming of the timers from the countdown timer (TVAL) over to the comparator (CVAL). The programming model is slightly different, as we now need to read the current counter value to have an absolute deadline instead of a relative one. There is a small overhead to this change, which we will address in the following patches.

arm64: use WFE for long delays The current delay implementation uses the yield instruction, which is a hint that it is beneficial to schedule another thread. As this is a hint, it may be implemented as a NOP, causing all delays to be busy loops. This is the case for many existing CPUs. Taking advantage of the generic timer sending periodic events to all cores, we can use WFE during delays to reduce power consumption. This is beneficial only for delays longer than the period of the timer event stream. If timer event stream is not enabled, delays will behave as yield/busy loops.

drivers: clocksource: add support for ARM architected timer event stream The ARM architected timer can generate events (used for waking up CPUs executing the wfe instruction) at a frequency represented as a power-of-2 divisor of the clock rate. An event stream might be used: - To implement wfe-based timeouts for userspace locking implementations. - To impose a timeout on a wfe for safeguarding against any programming error in case an expected event is not generated. This patch computes the event stream frequency aiming for a period of 100us between events. It uses ARM/ARM64 specific backends to configure and enable the event stream.

clocksource: arch_timer: Add support for memory mapped timers Add support for the memory mapped timers by filling in the read/write functions and adding some parsing code. Note that we only register one clocksource, preferring the cp15 based clocksource over the mmio one. To keep things simple we register one global clockevent. This covers the case of UP and SMP systems with only mmio hardware and systems where the memory mapped timers are used as the broadcast timer in low power modes. The DT binding allows for per-CPU memory mapped timers in case we want to support that in the future, but the code isn't added here. We also don't do much for hypervisor support, although it should be possible to support it by searching for at least two frames where one frame has the virtual capability and then updating KVM timers to support it.
