Therefore relying on it to calculate a window to clip whacky TSC values doesn't work as it can drift around. So instead use [GTOD, GTOD+TICK_NSEC) as the window. b) __update_sched_clock() did (roughly speaking): delta = sched_clock() - scd->tick_raw; clock += delta; Which gives exponential growth, instead of linear. c) allows the sched_clock_cpu() value to warp the u64 without breaking. the results are more reliable sched_clock() deltas: before after sched_clock cpu_clock: 15750 51312 51488 cpu_clock: 59719 51052 50947 cpu_clock: 15879 51249 51061 cpu_clock: 1 50933 51198 cpu_clock: 1 50931 51039 cpu_clock: 1 51093 50981 cpu_clock: 1 51043 51040 cpu_clock: 1 50959 50938 cpu_clock: 1 50981 51011 cpu_clock: 1 51364 51212 cpu_clock: 1 51219 51273 cpu_clock: 1 51389 51048 cpu_clock: 1 51285 51611 cpu_clock: 1 50964 51137 cpu_clock: 1 50973 50968 cpu_clock: 1 50967 50972 cpu_clock: 1 58910 58485 cpu_clock: 1 51082 51025 cpu_clock: 1 50957 50958 cpu_clock: 1 50958 50957 cpu_clock: 1006128 51128 50971 cpu_clock: 1 51107 51155 cpu_clock: 1 51371 51081 cpu_clock: 1 51104 51365 cpu_clock: 1 51363 51309 cpu_clock: 1 51107 51160 cpu_clock: 1 51139 51100 cpu_clock: 1 51216 51136 cpu_clock: 1 51207 51215 cpu_clock: 1 51087 51263 cpu_clock: 1 51249 51177 cpu_clock: 1 51519 51412 cpu_clock: 1 51416 51255 cpu_clock: 1 51591 51594 cpu_clock: 1 50966 51374 cpu_clock: 1 50966 50966 cpu_clock: 1 51291 50948 cpu_clock: 1 50973 50867 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 998306 50970 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 51351 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 51352 cpu_clock: 1 50971 50970 cpu_clock: 1 50970 50970 cpu_clock: 1 51321 50971 cpu_clock: 1 50974 51324 Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- diff --git a/kernel/sched_clock.c b/kernel/sched_clock.c index 204991a0bf..e8ab096ddf 100644 --- a/kernel/sched_clock.c +++ b/kernel/sched_clock.c @@ -12,19 +12,17 @@ * * Create a semi stable clock from a mixture of other events, including: * - gtod - * - jiffies * - sched_clock() * - explicit idle events * * We use gtod as base and the unstable clock deltas.
