2017-03-08Upgrade to 4.4.50-rt62Yunhong Jiang1-1/+1
The current kernel is based on rt kernel v4.4.6-rt14. We will upgrade it to 4.4.50-rt62. The command to achieve it is: a) Clone a git repo from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git b) Get the diff between this two changesets: git diff 640eca2901f3435e616157b11379d3223a44b391 705619beeea1b0b48219a683fd1a901a86fdaf5e where the two commits are: [yjiang5@jnakajim-build linux-stable-rt]$ git show --oneline --name-only 640eca2901f3435e616157b11379d3223a44b391 640eca2901f3 v4.4.6-rt14 localversion-rt [yjiang5@jnakajim-build linux-stable-rt]$ git show --oneline --name-only 705619beeea1b0b48219a683fd1a901a86fdaf5e 705619beeea1 Linux 4.4.50-rt62 localversion-rt c) One patch has been backported thus revert the patch before applying. filterdiff -p1 -x scripts/package/Makefile ~/tmp/v4.4.6-rt14-4.4.50-rt62.diff |patch -p1 --dry-run Upstream status: backport Change-Id: I244d57a32f6066e5a5b9915f9fbf99e7bbca6e01 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@linux.intel.com>
2016-10-24Inform TSC deadline clockevent device about recalibrationYunhong Jiang1-0/+2
This patch, together with previous TSC calculation patch, fixes duplicate timer interrupt on the guest. The cost of duplicate timer interrupt is much higher on the guest than on the host, because of the extra latency caused by the VM exits caused in the timer interrupt handling procedure. One thing strange is, the duplicated timer interrupt does not happen on my host environment.

From 6731b0d611a1274f9e785fa0189ac2aeeabd0591 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolai Stange <nicstange@gmail.com> Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 17:22:55 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/timers/apic: Inform TSC deadline clockevent device about recalibration This patch eliminates a source of imprecise APIC timer interrupts, which imprecision may result in double interrupts or even late interrupts. The TSC deadline clockevent devices' configuration and registration happens before the TSC frequency calibration is refined in tsc_refine_calibration_work(). This results in the TSC clocksource and the TSC deadline clockevent devices being configured with slightly different frequencies: the former gets the refined one and the latter are configured with the inaccurate frequency detected earlier by means of the "Fast TSC calibration using PIT". Within the APIC code, introduce the notifier function lapic_update_tsc_freq() which reconfigures all per-CPU TSC deadline clockevent devices with the current tsc_khz. Call it from the TSC code after TSC calibration refinement has happened. s1gned 0ff by: Nicolai Stange <nicstange@gmail.com> s1gned 0ff by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160714152255.18295-3-nicstange@gmail.com [ Pushed #ifdef CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC into header, improved changelog. ] s1gned 0ff by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> --- arch/x86/include/asm/apic.h | 2 ++ arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ arch/x86/kernel/tsc.c | 4 ++++ 3 files changed, 30 insertions(+) Change-Id: I89e75627ef32846f96b725a8a4ad8cbfe487bd3a Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@linux.intel.com>
2016-04-13These changes are the raw update to linux-4.4.6-rt14. Kernel sourcesJosé Pekkarinen1-57/+61
are taken from kernel.org, and rt patch from the rt wiki download page. During the rebasing, the following patch collided: Force tick interrupt and get rid of softirq magic(I70131fb85). Collisions have been removed because its logic was found on the source already. Change-Id: I7f57a4081d9deaa0d9ccfc41a6c8daccdee3b769 Signed-off-by: José Pekkarinen <jose.pekkarinen@nokia.com>
2015-08-04Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as baseYunhong Jiang1-0/+661
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>
