Vladis Dronov 75718584cb ptp: free ptp device pin descriptors properly
There is a bug in ptp_clock_unregister(), where ptp_cleanup_pin_groups()
first frees ptp->pin_{,dev_}attr, but then posix_clock_unregister() needs
them to destroy a related sysfs device.

These functions can not be just swapped, as posix_clock_unregister() frees
ptp which is needed in the ptp_cleanup_pin_groups(). Fix this by calling
ptp_cleanup_pin_groups() in ptp_clock_release(), right before ptp is freed.

This makes this patch fix an UAF bug in a patch which fixes an UAF bug.

Vladis Dronov a33121e548 ptp: fix the race between the release of ptp_clock and cdev
In a case when a ptp chardev (like /dev/ptp0) is open but an underlying
device is removed, closing this file leads to a race. This reproduces
easily in a kvm virtual machine:

ts# cat openptp0.c
int main() { ... fp = fopen("/dev/ptp0", "r"); ... sleep(10); }
ts# uname -r
5.5.0-rc3-46cf053e
ts# cat /proc/cmdline
... slub_debug=FZP
ts# modprobe ptp_kvm
ts# ./openptp0 &
[1] 670
opened /dev/ptp0, sleeping 10s...
ts# rmmod ptp_kvm
ts# ls /dev/ptp*
ls: cannot access '/dev/ptp*': No such file or directory
ts# ...woken up

This happens in:

static void __fput(struct file *file)
{   ...
    if (file->f_op->release)
        file->f_op->release(inode, file); <<< cdev is kfree'd here
    if (unlikely(S_ISCHR(inode->i_mode) && inode->i_cdev != NULL &&
             !(mode & FMODE_PATH))) {
        cdev_put(inode->i_cdev); <<< cdev fields are accessed here

Namely:

__fput()
  posix_clock_release()
    kref_put(&clk->kref, delete_clock) <<< the last reference
      delete_clock()
        delete_ptp_clock()
          kfree(ptp) <<< cdev is embedded in ptp
  cdev_put
    module_put(p->owner) <<< *p is kfree'd, bang!

Here cdev is embedded in posix_clock which is embedded in ptp_clock.
The race happens because ptp_clock's lifetime is controlled by two
refcounts: kref and cdev.kobj in posix_clock. This is wrong.

Make ptp_clock's sysfs device a parent of cdev with cdev_device_add()
created especially for such cases. This way the parent device with its
ptp_clock is not released until all references to the cdev are released.
This adds a requirement that an initialized but not exposed struct
device should be provided to posix_clock_register() by a caller instead
of a simple dev_t.

This approach was adopted from the commit 72139dfa24 ("watchdog: Fix
the race between the release of watchdog_core_data and cdev"). See
details of the implementation in the commit 233ed09d7f ("chardev: add
helper function to register char devs with a struct device").

Deepa Dinamani ead25417f8 timex: use __kernel_timex internally
struct timex is not y2038 safe.
Replace all uses of timex with y2038 safe __kernel_timex.

Note that struct __kernel_timex is an ABI interface definition.
We could define a new structure based on __kernel_timex that
is only available internally instead. Right now, there isn't
a strong motivation for this as the structure is isolated to
a few defined struct timex interfaces and such a structure would
be exactly the same as struct timex.

kthread_create_worker takes fmt+varargs to set the name of the
worker, and that happens with a vsnprintf() to a stack buffer (that is
then copied into task_comm). So there's no reason not to just pass
"ptp%d", ptp->index to kthread_create_worker() and avoid the
intermediate worker_name variable.

Grygorii Strashko d9535cb7b7 ptp: introduce ptp auxiliary worker
Many PTP drivers required to perform some asynchronous or periodic work,
like periodically handling PHC counter overflow or handle delayed timestamp
for RX/TX network packets. In most of the cases, such work is implemented
using workqueues. Unfortunately, Kernel workqueues might introduce
significant delay in work scheduling under high system load and on -RT,
which could cause misbehavior of PTP drivers due to internal counter
overflow, for example, and there is no way to tune its execution policy and
priority manuallly.

Hence, The kthread_worker can be used insted of workqueues, as it create
separte named kthread for each worker and its its execution policy and
priority can be configured using chrt tool.

This prblem was reported for two drivers TI CPSW CPTS and dp83640, so
instead of modifying each of these driver it was proposed to add PTP
auxiliary worker to the PHC subsystem.

The patch adds PTP auxiliary worker in PHC subsystem using kthread_worker
and kthread_delayed_work and introduces two new PHC subsystem APIs:

- long (*do_aux_work)(struct ptp_clock_info *ptp) callback in
ptp_clock_info structure, which driver should assign if it require to
perform asynchronous or periodic work. Driver should return the delay of
the PTP next auxiliary work scheduling time (>=0) or negative value in case
further scheduling is not required.

- int ptp_schedule_worker(struct ptp_clock *ptp, unsigned long delay) which
allows schedule PTP auxiliary work.

The name of kthread_worker thread corresponds PTP PHC device name "ptp%d".

Deepa Dinamani d340266e19 time: Change posix clocks ops interfaces to use timespec64
struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit machines.

The posix clocks apis use struct timespec directly and through struct

Replace the posix clock interfaces to use struct timespec64 and struct
itimerspec64 instead.  Also fix up their implementations accordingly.

Note that the clock_getres() interface has also been changed to use
timespec64 even though this particular interface is not affected by the
y2038 problem. This helps verification for internal kernel code for y2038
readiness by getting rid of time_t/ timeval/ timespec.

Richard Cochran d8d2635419 ptp: Introduce a high resolution frequency adjustment method.
The internal PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) interface limits the resolution for
frequency adjustments to one part per billion.  However, some hardware
devices allow finer adjustment, and making use of the increased resolution
improves synchronization measurably on such devices.

This patch adds an alternative method that allows finer frequency tuning
by passing the scaled ppm value to PHC drivers.  This value comes from
user space, and it has a resolution of about 0.015 ppb.  We also deprecate
the older method, anticipating its removal once existing drivers have been
converted over.

Jiri Benc 7356a764cd ptp: dynamic allocation of PHC char devices
As network adapters supporting PTP are becoming more common, machines with
many NICs suddenly have many PHCs, too. The current limit of eight /dev/ptp*
char devices (and thus, 8 network interfaces with PHC) is insufficient. Let
the ptp driver allocate the char devices dynamically.

Tested with 28 PHCs, removing and re-adding some of them.

Thanks to Ben Hutchings for advice leading to simpler and cleaner patch.

Richard Cochran 1ef761582c ptp: link the phc device to its parent device
PTP Hardware Clock devices appear as class devices in sysfs. This patch
changes the registration API to use the parent device, clarifying the
clock's relationship to the underlying device.

Richard Cochran 39a8cbd9ca ptp: remember the adjusted frequency
This patch adds a field to the representation of a PTP hardware clock in
order to remember the frequency adjustment value dialed by the user.

Adding this field will let us answer queries in the manner of adjtimex
in a follow on patch.

Ben Hutchings 220a60a425 pps/ptp: Allow PHC devices to adjust PPS events for known delay
Initial version by Stuart Hodgson <smhodgson@solarflare.com>

Some PHC device drivers may deliver PPS events with a significant
and variable delay, but still be able to measure precisely what
that delay is.

Add a pps_sub_ts() function for subtracting a delay from the
timestamp(s) in a PPS event, and a PTP event type (PTP_CLOCK_PPSUSR)
for which the caller provides a complete PPS event.

Richard Cochran d94ba80ebb ptp: Added a brand new class driver for ptp clocks.
This patch adds an infrastructure for hardware clocks that implement
IEEE 1588, the Precision Time Protocol (PTP). A class driver offers a
registration method to particular hardware clock drivers. Each clock is
presented as a standard POSIX clock.

The ancillary clock features are exposed in two different ways, via
the sysfs and by a character device.
